Whether you have Valentine’s Day plans with others or are happily going it alone, self care is always essential. We’ve compiled some suggestions for you to treat yourself, unwind and take a little ‘me time’ over the coming weeks!
The Head Plan
If you write it down, you can start to visualise and make it happen. The Head Plan Community is a safe space to help you on your self-development journey. Connect with others, learn self-development techniques such as journalling, manifesting and meditation. You can also receive daily positive affirmations to help you carry positivity with you throughout your day.
The Galmont Spirit One Spa
If you’re looking to unwind, what better way to do just that than treating yourself to a luxurious spa day at The Galmont Spirit One spa here in Galway. With a wide selection of treatments to choose from, you can have someone take care of you in confidence. Lie back, and relax, this time is just for you.
The Belle Silk Pillowcase
The perfect way to treat your hair is to sleep on a luxurious Mulberry Silk pillowcase. Thanks to silk’s buttery smooth texture your hair won’t get tangled or matted as you sleep. Silk also doesn’t dry out your hair like traditional cotton pillowcases, leaving your hair hydrated, frizz free and silky smooth. Say goodbye to bed head and good morning to soft, beautiful hair with The Silk Pillowcase from The Belle Brush.
Voya Oh So Scented Reed Diffuser
Sensuous, calming, subtle and sweet, this scent evokes instant tranquillity and relaxation, created by cushioning notes of camomile with rose essence. If you’re looking for a relaxing treat this valentines the gentle floral uplift of summery lavender and geranium in this reed diffuser will envelop your chosen environment with a harmonious soothing aroma.
