After a year of hard work and challenges, a relaxing spa day or self-care items can be just what she needs.
Gift her a spa gift certificate or create a DIY spa basket with scented candles, bath salts, luxurious bathrobes, and skincare products to help her unwind and rejuvenate.
You could buy the perfect Self-Care Kit from Me-Time. It is a uniquely experiential gift, which combines beautiful products with both physical therapy and mindful relaxation. It is the perfect excuse to create some well-deserved and rewarding Me-Time. With it being an award-winning Vegan product it would be the perfect gift for anyone who needs some self-care time.
Extract from Me Time Therapies Beauty Secrets Article
I started out offering Complementary therapies and over the years have branched out into teaching short courses in Indian head massage, Aromatherapy and Reflexology. In the past 3 years, I have trained as a Mindfulness teacher and now offering 8-week Mindfulness classes. I have also created a natural skincare range over the past 3 years .
The natural skincare products are
· Vegan Body Butter
· Relaxing Massage Balm
· Invigorating Citrus Massage Balm
· Make your own Body Butter & Lip Balm kit (Vegan)
Even though I have been in business for over 20 years, I only started to focus on my brand three years ago when I was creating my first product; Make your Own Body butter & Lip Balm kit.
By offering Wellness therapies, courses and products, my brand is about helping others and being of benefit to them by sharing my knowledge and skills.
SELF-CARE SECRETS
1. An Epsom Salt bath with Neroli & Geranium Aromatherapy oils followed by lying on top of my bed with a cosy blanket and doing a Mindfulness Body Scan.
2. Getting out into nature either into my garden or a walk by the sea helps me calm down when I feel overwhelmed by my ‘To-Do List’.
3. I also use Hand Reflexology when I am feeling anxious by massaging the Diaphragm, Solar Plexus and Head reflexes. I can do this anywhere (travelling or at home) as my hands are easily accessible.
BUSINESS PLANS
I am about to launch a Muscle Relax Massage Balm which is suitable for Body Massage, Indian head massage or for achy muscles post-exercise.
I teach a Self-Care Wellbeing Day and I am formulating a plan in how to create this as a Self-Care Kit to launch in October to sell as a Christmas gift.
My Plastic free mission when creating the Make your own Body Butter & Lip Balm kit in 2017 was to make it as ethical as possible and to help you cut down on 1-use plastic packaging.
The kraft Cardboard Box: you can reuse it for e.g. store jewellery, hair accessories, craft accessories or Aromatherapy oils
The aluminium tins: you can reuse them when you make a new batch of Lip Balms & Body butters. You can also use them to decant sun lotion, aloe gel, after sun when going on holiday.
Bottle: the bottle is 100ml so you can reuse it for lotions to put into hand luggage/handbag to meet airport restrictions of the size of liquid bottles.
Tissue paper: you can reuse it for wrapping presents.
Making your own skincare helps with going plastic-free
By learning to make your own natural skincare, you are cutting down on purchasing one-use plastic skincare containers and bottles. By following the Recipe Cards and video tutorials, you will see how easy it is to make your own natural skincare in your kitchen. You can reuse the aluminium jars provided in the kit over and over again for your Body Butters and Lip Balms.
Massage Balms & Vegan Body butter
In 2018, I added to the natural skincare range and now offer
I use aluminium jars for the Massage Balms and the Body butter rather than hard plastic containers or 1-use plastic skincare jars/bottles. Once the balms and body butter have been used, the aluminium containers can be washed and reused or repurposed e.g. storing seeds to sow in the garden, storing paper clips or coins.
