As I sit here with vaguely glittery handy, my body smelling of vetivert, cedarwood and peppermint I remember that I need to take my own advice more. As I have repeated on countless occasions here (and, honestly, anywhere I can), growing up can be tough. Add hormones and period cramps to the mix and you have the lovely, wonderful result being-on-the-brink-of-tears-for-no-reason. Though trivial and very much not the worst thing in the world, I very much do appreciate ways to avoid feeling like this; especially when weekends have become so precious - time to spend with my boyfriend, reading, and - well - just out and about during daylight hours at the moment.
So what did I do this evening? I finally plugged up the courage to see if the plug I bought for my bath in my shared house (do you like my pun... I'm hilarious) fits and well, if it fits, I sits. I have yet to delve further into the Lush bathbomb treasure troves, but I decided tonight was the night I was going to use Intergalactic, kindly gifted to me by my manager at Christmas time (because she was scared of giving me edible stuff I couldn't have, which is really incredibly thoughtful of her!)
Book in hand, candle lit, and music on I sunk into the blue depths of my bath only to discover that no only does this delightful bathbomb have popping candy in the mix, but glitter too. As per usual, this bath cleared my head (swimming does the same thing for me... I just love water!) and allowed me to warm up to my very core surrounded by the lovely sounds and smells of my bath! The one downside of being in a shared house is that I couldn't really stay in there too long, but my soak did me a whole lot of good. I've said it before, and I'll keep saying it until I get my head around it: I need to do this more.
Stress is a big, scary, yucky thing, but remember, my lovely friends, do the things that make you feel good - breathe, relax and fly to the stars.☆
