Warmth & Wellness: Your New Period Self-Care Ritual

SCARLET BLOG - Your New Period Self-Care Ritual

Periods: They might not be the highlight of your month, but they don’t have to be a total mood killer either. With the right self-care routine, your flow can actually be pretty chill. Here are five steps we swear by.

 

Step 1: Set the Mood

First things first: create a space that feels cosy and chill. Think soft lighting, fuzzy blankets, and your fave tunes (we’ve even got some Spotify playlists waiting for you!). It’s not just about aesthetics; it’s about crafting a vibe that helps you feel at ease and nurtured.

 

Step 2: Bring the Bubbles

Nothing beats sinking into a warm bath, and Scarlet’s Soothing Sud Bubble Bath is the perfect partner. Infused with magnesium, it soothes tired muscles and eases tension. Light some candles, pour the bubbles (both types, of course), and let your stress melt away.

 

Step 3: Turn on the Heat

Let’s talk heat. There’s something incredibly comforting about warmth, especially when your body’s feeling a bit off. Enter rae Heat Pad, the sleek, wireless heat pad that’s like a warm hug for your cramps. Say goodbye to bulky, old-school heating pads that just tie you down (ick). rae is designed to move with you, whether you're running errands, grinding at work, or just Netflix and chilling.

 

Step 4: Power Up

Don’t skip out on fueling your body! Sip on herbal teas like chamomile or peppermint for a chill vibe and some hydration. Grab some light, nourishing snacks - think smashed avocado on toast, a handful of nuts, or a bowl of fresh fruit. Your body deserves the good stuff to keep you powered up during your period.

 

Step 5: Embrace It

Once you’ve got everything set up, it’s time to relax and enjoy. Slip into your comfiest PJs, grab a good book or your fave boxset, and let yourself fully unwind. The goal isn’t just to survive your period but to make it a little more enjoyable (or at the very least, manageable).
