If you follow me on twitter + instagram, you may have seen some tweets and photos of me indulging in a little me time lately.
Moments that are far and few between being a busy mom of 3!
I was challenged by Nivea to slow down my morning shower routine for at least 2 weeks.
Light a candle, take the time to exfoliate rough elbows and knees, moisturize and wrap myself in a luxurious robe.
Light a candle, take the time to exfoliate rough elbows and knees, moisturize and wrap myself in a luxurious robe.
And indulge I did.
For me, indulgence comes in many forms.
The biggest of these being time. An "alone" shower {read: no kids interrupting for an ENTIRE 10 mins} has quickly become a huge indulgence. In fact, I find more and more I'm switching to an evening shower and locking the door. that works.
As do pretty flowers in the washroom that leave their sweet, lingering scent.
A perfectly plush, cozy robe. And new fresh white towels.
What does indulgence mean to you?

Oh I love this kind of indulgence especially on a lazy Saturday or Sunday afternoon.
ReplyDeleteCurrently I have a big bouquet of pink peonies in my living room and whenever I walk into the room I notice their beautiful scent!
Thanks again for your kind support yesterday, Susan!

I was born under the sign of Taurus and this is very well known for its particularly strong sense of indulgence and enjoyment. I enjoy every ray of sun on my skin, a good wine, my feet in the warm sand, a good bath with fragrant essences and many things more.
