Treating the people you love when they need it most is one of the great joys in life. Putting a smile on someone’s face is always rewarding and as a friend or family member, you feel closer to them after the gesture.
But do you ever stop and consider treating yourself when under stress? If you have been working hard or are facing a difficult period of your life, consider treating yourself and lifting your spirits this week. Here are some of the things you could do for yourself to make you feel happier.
A box of treats
The first and most simple way to gift yourself this week is with a box of treats. It could be some of your favourite sweets, some chocolate, or savoury snacks that you love. Self gifting doesn’t have to be huge and you can often find some really great ideas in your local supermarket.
A tooth aligner
This might seem like a strange choice – but if you have slightly wonky teeth or a misshapen smile it can impact
Your confidence and your ability to smile when out with your friends or family. Why not straighten your teeth with an at home tooth aligner this year and invest in your happiness for the future? This is something that can really lift your spirits and will ultimately improve your quality of life.
A new dress
One of the things many of us do when bored is scroll through our favourite shopping apps looking at the outfits. If you are feeling like a pick me up this week, why not treat yourself and buy a new dress for your wardrobe? A new outfit can have a massive impact on your mood and your confidence, and you’ll feel like a whole new person!
A spa kit
If you are in need of some tlc, you can find spa kits and gift sets in most drug stores. Buying one for yourself and giving yourself a pamper session is a great way to make you feel relaxed and renewed, ready to tackle the world once again. You can also treat yourself to a bottle of Prosecco and really make a day of it! Gather one of your friends or a family member with you and enjoy a relaxing spa day to rid yourself of all of the toxins and stress in your body.
A day off
Sometimes the best kind of treat you can give yourself is time. When was the last time you took a day to yourself to simply enjoy the things you love? It is so important for our mental health and wellbeing to take time out from the stresses of work and commitments. Even if you can only spend one day relaxing, this will make a huge difference to the way you feel and how you cope with your everyday routine. Book a day off and just enjoy your hobbies. Sleep in a little late, have a nice breakfast, enjoy reading a good book or simply binge Netflix. This is the ultimate self treat!
