Look after your mental wellness with these self-care tips

SELF-CARE IDEAS FOR THE WINTER MONTHS

The days are getting shorter, greyer, and colder, winter really is coming! Whilst this means Christmas and the time for cute Christmas pyjamas is getting closer, it also means we may not be feeling our best, most fabulous selves! 

As the dark days set in it is important to take some extra time to look after your mental wellbeing! Self-love is our favourite kind of love at Boux, so we have plenty of great self-care tips perfect for looking after yourself this winter! 

Let’s face it, looking after yourself has never been more important after such a difficult and unprecedented (sorry, we are sick of that word too!!) couple of years. There are plenty of ways you can take some time to check in with yourself and look after YOU, so we’ve rounded up some of Team Boux’s fave tips here…

SELF-CARE TIP #1: FIT EXERCISE INTO YOUR SCHEDULE

When people say exercise is good for mental health, that doesn’t mean you have to be running 5K every day! Just getting outdoors and going for a casual stroll or dancing round your room can do wonders! 

The important thing is to find an exercise form YOU enjoy that makes YOU feel great! Whilst it may be a struggle to get regular exercise into your schedule at first, believe us - you will be glad you did after a few weeks! It can really make a difference to your mood when the shorter days set in! 

One thing we find that makes us more inclined to get our exercise on is if we love our activewear! Making sure you feel comfy in your exercise outfit is the only thing that matters really, as long as you feel fabulous, you’ll look fabulous too!

Emily in Camo Activewear Sets

Our girl Emily is a Yoga fan, which is always a great choice and the perf form of self-care! 

Look how gorj she looks in our sassy new camo activewear sets whilst practicing her flowww! For a super cute gymlook, the camo unitard is a must-have, the all-in-one is so comfy and on-trend! If you prefer the classic gym leggings and matching gym top combo, our camo leggings with the matching camo padded crop are for you!  

High Shine Gym Set

For dark winter nights it is good to wear something reflective when out and about exercising! Our high shine panelled leggings and matching high shine padded crop are the perfect choice! The high shine reflective material ensures you can be seen when on your runs by cars - as well as looking fabulous and turning heads! The high-waisted leggings have a shaping waistband to ensure they stay in place whilst you get your work out on! Plus, the super chic crop offers medium support perfect for some light exercise when you need to show yourself some self-care!

SELF-CARE TIP #2: INVESTING IN 'ME TIME'

One thing we know that can be hard to do is taking a break from scrolling on our phones. As much as we love it, it can’t be denied that having a break from Insta and doing some pampering instead is a great way to show yourself and your mental wellbeing some love. 

There are plenty of ways to embrace some digital detoxing and self-love time - one of our faves is throwing on our gorj cosy lounge set and having a relaxing night in

Yarn Knit Lounge Sets

A new loungewear fave we know you are going to love to relax in over winter is the beauuuutiful yarn knit flare trousers and matching knitted twist back jumper! This gorj set is so comfy and luxurious, it will brighten your day just by wearing it!!

Once you have chosen your perf lounge set, it is time to show yourself some TLC by doing a face mask, lighting a candle and just relaxing doing nothing! It is easy to get very booked and busy over winter and the festive period, so it is important to take some time to yourself by just doing nothing. 

SELF-CARE TIP #3: HAVING A GOOD NIGHT-TIME ROUTINE

Our final self-care tip to see you through winter is to take your bedtime routine seriously!! Your night-time routine can impact how much and how well you sleep, and all of this can seriously impact your mood.
