Over the past 5 months I have become acquainted with my home in ways that I didn’t even know I could. The lockdown has caused me to be home 96% of the time. Today I have an awesome way you can take care of yourself with a spa day from home free printable checklist.
We have been though a lot in the past couple of months haven’t we? I am certainly guilty of getting caught up in the day to day of work, cooking, more work and more cooking. I have not been taking self care seriously even though I know I need to. If you have been in the same boat, don’t worry I’ve got a great place for you to get started.
Pre lockdown I didn’t go to the spa nearly enough. As a matter of fact, the last time I went to the spa it was 6 weeks before the lockdown for my birthday. My friend got me a spa gift the year before and I was able to get a full body massage for the ages. We may not have that option, or may be a little weary of public indoor spaces so why not have create a fun spa at home?
