Rituals we can get on board with
At Tide Wellness we don't believe in resolutions, regimes or punishing schedules. But we do believe in indulging in wellness rituals that enhance our day-to-day.
Even the smallest wellness rituals can make a HUGE difference to I've been experimenting, and I've found a few gems that even I can squeeze into my busy days. Maybe they'll work for you too!
My Matcha Moment
Seriously, this is a game-changer. I've tried a bunch of matcha brands, but the one from Ancient & Brave? Chef's kiss. It's smooth, it's delicious, and it gives me that gentle boost I need without the jitters. It's like a mini-meditation before the chaos begins – and it tastes amazing. I have been getting up a little earlier than the rest of my household and using using my matcha moment for a few seconds of meditation and intention setting for the day ahead.
My Circulation Kick Start
My skin has been supper dry this winter, and I found that jumping out a hot shower and throwing on my clothes was leading to sensitive, irritated skin. So my next little ritual centres on my favourite body oil from Naturium. I take a moment post shower each morning to apply the oil and my skin soaks it right up. Then, I use a jade comb for a quick body massage. It sounds fancy, but it takes a few minutes and I believe its helping stimulate my lymphatic system and giving my circulation a proper kick start!
Evening Journaling
At the other end of the day rituals can seem a bit more of a chore as I just want to collapse in bed. But this one is. crucial for me because otherwise, my brain just keeps buzzing.I started journaling last summer and it's been surprisingly helpful. I use The Five Minute Journal from Intelligent Change – it's structured in a way that makes reflection super easy, even when I'm exhausted. It helps me process the day, focus on the good stuff, and actually relax before bed.
These little rituals aren't about adding more to your to-do list – they're about carving out tiny pockets of joy and calm in your day. Even five minutes of matcha can make a difference. So, what are you waiting for? Find what works for you and start squeezing in some sanity! You deserve it.
