I love a good shower, it’s the only time I get away from my kids. Just kidding. This year, I promised myself I would prioritize self-care even and that means doing the best with what I got (insert Mariah Carey gif). The first part of my self-care journey was identifying daily activities that bring me joy. I love washing my hair, taking a steaming hot shower, or following through on my skincare routine. While these seem like simple daily tasks, they’re essential when you don’t have much free time. So when it comes to making the most of my shower, I do it.

There are dozens of benefits of a warm shower. According to Healthline, “Being in hot water effectively helps relieve body tension and can help soothe muscle fatigue. In a survey, people reported less stress, pain, and fatigue, as well as better emotional and mental health.”

If you’re like me, you bring your phone into the bathroom because you like to scroll until the curtains peel back. Then, you hit the play button on your favorite curated soundtrack and connect to the Bluetooth speaker. Whether you play music or turn your bathroom into a theater with a cool mini projector, adding these entertaining elements will enhance your shower time.

This part of the self-care experience happens after your shower. I’ve made it a morning practice to write in my Papier wellness journal and use the pages to manifest my day. Writing in a journal can be a therapeutic way to process your emotions, set intentions, and reflect on your day. Whether you’re writing about your goals, feelings, or dreams, journaling offers a safe space for self-expression and reflection.
