My Ultimate Self Love Ritual for Healing and Relaxation

I start with a light workout in my Elastique Athletics Compression Leggings  they combine activewear with lymphatic drainage and I swear I’ve noticed a reduction in swelling in my thighs after wearing these while doing my steady state cardio - they just dropped an adorable rose colored collection and you can use the code SARAHGRACE14 for 14% off your order now through Valentine’s Day

Then I head out for a massage to help further detoxification and relax the body. On my way home, I pick up some fresh flowers from our local florist - having fresh flowers always brightens up the house and my mood :)

Next I take a soothing, calming epsom salt bath. I light my Brooklyn Candle Studio Love Potion Candle and enjoy the dreamy scents of jasmine, lavender and mandarin while sipping my natural, biodynamic wine from Dry Farms Wine. 

Nothing says self care ritual like a dreamy candle. I absolutely LOVE this candle company, based out of Brooklyn, NY. They make the dreamiest scents and I myself just placed an order for their limited edition Love Potion candle. It has hints of jasmine, lavender, and bright mandarin and 10% of the proceeds are donated to Harboring Hearts, a public charity providing emergency services to transplant and cardiac surgery patients and their families. Buy one for you and one for a friend and get free shipping! 

Have you ever noticed when you drink wine you become tired or get a headache and feel the effects way more than you think you should? It’s most likely the sulfates or added sugar. I feel like us with Hashimoto’s are more sensitive to these “dirty” wines and I’ve been on the hunt for a cleaner version made with natural ingredients and sulfate-free. Enter Dry Farms Wine - the wines are produced on organic family farms with no added sugar and are all sulfate-free.

After my bath I use my Indie Lee Daily Vitamin Infusion on my face for the ultimate soothing and hydrating combination for my dry and sensitive skin. I recently discovered this brand and love that it is cruelty free and doesn’t use over 1300 banned ingredients. It is also made in a neighboring town - South Salem, NY.

Then I get into bed with my cozy Barefoot Dreams socks. They keep my feet so warm and are so soft they feel like a hug on your feet. I have a cup of my favorite Love Conquers All tea from House of Waris that contains a blend of rose, saffron and Shatavari for a heart warming, spirit lifting tea. 

And lastly, I settle into bed ready to dive into a new book - Heartless by Marissa Meyer the #1 New York Times–bestselling story of Wonderland's most notorious villain: the Queen of Hearts.
