In-House Self-Care Starter Kit

I think we all need to designate days where self-care is at the top of the our To-Do list for the day. It’s so important to channel our energy and create something positive that helps motivate and help push through that everyday life of 2020. I am excited to partner with Nordstrom and its Anniversary Sale to show you how I create a very calming and relaxing self-care environment in the comfort of my own home. I love the Nordstrom Anniversary sale because it always is at the perfect time to upgrade or add items from my wish list to my cart and pick them up directly from my home store location.

There’s nothing like setting the mood for even a few hours of self-care with the aroma of scented candles. I came across the Voluspa Maison Blanc Saijo Persimmon Maison Metallo 2-Wick Candle window shopping at my local Nordstrom located at Pentagon City in Arlington, Va. This 2 wick candle is about the size of my palm and also has a lid that’s perfect for when it’s time to blow the candle out. If you are sensitive to candle scents then the Voluspa’s candles offer relief with subtle hand-poured coconut wax.

Now the candle isn’t the only thing you can use to create the in house spa treatment you not only want but deserve. Sliding into your most comfortable lounge or sleepwear is the beginning step to making your all-about-you day, relaxing. Choose a calming playlist and tap into your Bluetooth speaker. Inspirational songs or melodies work best for me and make it easier for me to meditate.

Grab one of your favorite wine bottles and pour a glass to your liking. For a more subtle and non-alcoholic beverage, try a sparkling cider, Kombucha, or organic fruit juice. If your feeling the new ambiance you’ve created feel free to add a refreshing snack choice like fruit or a mini cheese board and fresh flowers.

However you decide to self-care, take the opportunity to add your own spa-like pieces right from your home or from Nordstrom’s Anniversary Sale.
