Rainy day - which I am actually enjoying! I set a goal with my mentors that I will walk on the terrace twice a week, and today was my first. It's something I struggle with both physically and with my OCD, so I am proud of myself for doing it. Then I will do it again on Monday, right before my video meeting with them. I also start physical therapy this coming week, on Wednesday. Never tried it before, so I am both excited and nervous. Her name is Camilla, and she is coming here for at-home physical therapy. 

Today we slept in, had a healthy breakfast, and then Lasse helped his dad with some stuff on the computer. Both his parents are away this weekend, camping, so we have the house to ourselves. We've made dinner and dessert - yum! All in all a very good day ♡

Self-Care Sunday

 MASQUE ME UP
Natural Bio Cellulose Facemask

♡

Moisturising Sheet Mask

This Sunday’s self-care is all about hydration with the Masque Me Up Moisturizing Sheet Mask. It’s a bio-cellulose mask made from naturally fermented coconut juice and is designed to hydrate, soothe and give the skin a little radiance boost.

My skin can definitely use some extra moisture, but I also just really enjoy the ritual of using a sheet mask. There’s something nice about putting one on and deciding that, for the next little while, I’m allowed to simply lie down and relax.

I’m trying to make these small moments a regular part of my Sundays. Nothing complicated, nothing I have to achieve — just a little bit of intentional time spent taking care of myself.

Today that means a very moisturised face and absolutely no reason to get up until the mask comes off. 

Happy Self-Care Sunday! 

 

Bit of a flare up day, but I managed to get through it ♡
