It Starts With Coffee

A few weeks ago I wrote about smarter indulgences during me time. Today I wanted to give you a few more ways for “me” time that may help you get through the summer months when life gets busier and things are hectic.

Some of my favorite ways for me time don’t cost a lot of money and are perfect for nights when you just need a break from life. One of my personal favorites is taking a bubble bath, turning on some music and enjoying a yummy indulgence. I particularly like the Caramel Divine Filled Chocolates from Skinny Cow. These are perfect for a bath indulgence because they are individually wrapped to make it VERY easy to snack on one without having to have a ton of space. It’s so nice to relax from a long day and prepare yourself for the day ahead.

Another great way to have some me time is window shopping with a cool drink! I love putting one of my Skinny Cow Creamy Cappuccino Creamy Iced Coffee drinks in a tumbler with some ice and walking around the mall or a local shopping center. This is a great way to decompress without spending a lot of money, and bonus; you can get a little exercise while you are walking around. We have a huge shopping center near our new house that is outside and the perfect place to walk around and window shop. This cold drink is also the BEST drink for the hot hot hot summer months! It has been my go to lately on super hot mornings and afternoons when I need a boost but hot coffee just doesn’t sound good.

Lastly I love sitting on our porch swing enjoying some skinny cow ice cream bars after dinner. Usually after dinner I clean up the kitchen and Andrew goes to work on a house project. I try to take 30 minutes or so and sit outside (weather permitting) and enjoying a dessert. There are three truly mouth watering flavors: vanilla almond crunch, double caramel swirl and triple chocolate ripple. Lately I have been gravitating towards the double caramel swirl. I like to switch it up and this one became a fast favorite. One of the things I loved most about our house when we bought it was the porch swing and now my nightly routine of ice cream on the porch is something I look forward to all day!

I think having a little time to yourself to make sure you are living your best life and giving yourself the most you can is really important. You can’t be good for others when you aren’t good to yourself. My challenge to you is to find a way to take 30 minutes of time to yourself every day!

 

What is one way you can take time to yourself?
