4 Self Care Valentine’s Day Activities
Valentine’s Day is a gentle invitation to slow down and nurture the relationship you have with yourself. Whether you are in a relationship or not, this day can be about presence, pleasure, and tending to your own well being. These simple rituals are all about showing yourself a little extra care this month.
1. DIY Spa Style Solo Soak
Turn your bath into a true solo date with yourself, one that feels unhurried and a little luxurious. Begin by brewing a warm cup of Breathe Easy or Golden Slumbers and letting the soothing aroma set the mood while you prepare your space. Draw a warm bath and add our Chamomile Bath Soak for a deeply calming, spa like experience. You could also scatter loose herbs or flower petals if you want to elevate the moment even further.
Bring your tea with you, light a candle, and settle in without your phone or distractions. Let this be less about checking self care off a list and more about enjoying your own company, noticing how the water feels, how the steam rises, and how your body softens. This is your personal spa, your quiet time, your moment to just be.
2. Journal with a Calming Blend
Journaling is a powerful way to reconnect with yourself and create space for reflection. Pour a warm cup of something comforting like our Self Care Elixir, curl up somewhere cozy, and spend some time with your thoughts. Even a short session can help you feel more grounded and self aware.

3. Self Care Beauty Time
When life gets busy, our beauty rituals can easily become rushed or forgotten. Use Valentine’s Day as permission to slow down and truly enjoy taking care of yourself. Create a little at home spa atmosphere with soft lighting, your favourite music, and a few treats for your skin. We love a refreshing face mask like our Clarifying Matcha Mask with peppermint, a gentle exfoliation with our Earl Grey Body Scrub for glowing skin, and a simple DIY manicure or pedicure to finish things off. Take your time and let it feel indulgent rather than hurried.
4. Buy Yourself a Gift
Many of us are so focused on giving to others that we forget to treat ourselves. This Valentine’s Day, pick out something just for you, no matter how small. It could be fresh flowers, a scented candle, a new book, or a little something you have had your eye on. Let it be a reminder that you are worthy of care, joy, and celebration all year long.
