Touch As Self-Care

By Holistic Skin Therapist + Brand Educator, Cassandra Bradshaw

Self care -- we all want an abundance of it, right? Not only does it feel good to take care of ourselves, it’s also paramount to our well-being. Often we encounter barriers inhibiting our ability to relax and enjoy quality time with ourselves or a loved one; we’re working long hours, taking care of our needs to survive, commuting all over the place, possibly also taking care of others. The list of mandatory things to do can pile high, and the stress this creates can really impact our relationships + sense of self.

Through our holistic lens, we favour using herbs, nutrition, aromatherapy and touch to support our overall health and help balance our mood and stress levels. Other helpful practices include breathing techniques, movement, clearing stagnant energy in your space, and effective communication with oneself or partners.

Try coaxing your autonomic nervous system into your parasympathetic state and allow your worries to melt away with a relaxing ritual that can be enjoyed alone or shared with a partner. Make it a priority to do one thing for yourself each day that makes you feel good!
