A Smarter Indulgence

Making time for myself is one of the hardest things I deal with. I’m not talking about 20 minutes before bed when I read for a little bit because that’s really not time to myself. I mean having a solid hour(or more) here and there to just relax with a book, watch a favorite movie, go on a walk, maybe give myself a mani/pedi and relax with some delicious indulgences. For me I am always trying to find a smarter indulgence. A way that I can indulge myself without the guilt that comes along with it.

I wanted to share with you my favorite 3 ways to have a smarter indulgence.

Pamper yourself: Do an at home face mask(my favorite is from origins) or manicure and while you are letting the face mask or your nails set in enjoy some yummy goodness while reading your favorite magazine or a fun new book. The caramel divine filled chocolates from Skinny Cow are my personal favorites. The sweet chocolate taste with gooey caramel is so amazing you will forget it’s guilt free.  This is a great way to take care of your mind, your skin and treat yourself to something very decadent without the guilt.

Enjoy some time outside with a cool drink: I love taking morning walks while listening to music or a podcast. I love drinking coffee while I do this and with summer in full swing here in Texas the Skinny Cow creamy cappuccino creamy iced coffee is the perfect indulgence to take on my walk with me. Pulling it out of the fridge in the morning and grabbing my phone and headphones to cool off and get some me time in is the best feeling. I love the sweet but not too sweet taste and the refreshing feel. It gives me a ton of energy to tackle my day.

Enjoy a favorite chick flick: This is a good chance to curl up on the couch in my pjs with a blanket, and some ice cream! My current favorite ice cream to have a smart indulgence with is the Skinny Cow ice cream bars! There are three new flavors (ALL NEELY APPROVED). They are vanilla almond crunch, double caramel swirl and triple chocolate ripple. I think the vanilla almond crunch is the current favorite in this house. I won’t lie there are nights where it’s a race to the freezer after dinner to snag one. Recently I curled up to watch 27 dresses and enjoyed my vanilla almond crunch! Such good me time.

There are so many ways you can have me time and these are just a few of the ways you can enjoy some time to yourself with a smarter indulgence.

What are your favorite ways to treat yourself to some me time?

    Since its summer break the kids have been staying up late but I need them to start going to bed a little earlier so I can have at least 30 mins to unwind before bed
