2020 was a year. We almost forget all of the terrible things that happened before March because the rest of the year was consumed by the pandemic. It has taken a toll on all of us, to say the least. That’s why I am entering 2021 unapologetic and treating myself to only things that “spark joy”, and I think you should too. We deserve that extra special things or somethings that brings us a little bit of happiness, calm, and relaxation. Here are the three things on our radar in 2021 that we’ve treated ourselves to, and think that you should too.
A Silk Pillowcase
Not only does a silk pillowcase feel great, but it is also great for your hair. The Celestial Silk pillowcase is temperature regulating and it keeps you warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer – leading to sounder sleep. It also helps to retain the moisture in your skin and hair, resulting in a smoother complexion and softer (less frizzy) hair.

Skincare, down there
By now, we all have our skincare regime set. We already know which moisturizer we like and which cleanser leaves us feeling refreshed. But what do you do for your skin…down there? Ottawa-based Bushbalm helps to treat redness and irritation in the bikini line. With 100% natural ingredients, treat yourself to one of their smoothing oils and exfoliating scrub to pamper yourself at home.

Give yourself permission to pause
Whether you’re relaxing with a good book, or enjoying a meditation session at home, give yourself the permission in 2021 to take a pause and relax. We’ve been enjoying reading The Conscious Creative by Kelly Small, which focuses on ways that creatives and those in artistic professions can use mindfulness and practical ethics to balance the work we do to live and what we need to fuel and protect our souls.
