Isn’t it ironic how we’re constantly scrambling… for slowness? We zoom through meetings and projects throughout the week so that we can catch a break on the weekend, and every day is a race to the finish line of a to-do list, where the reward of a sumptuous dinner or time to do whatever you want to wind down awaits.
But sometimes, one needs to do much more than eat a better meal or sleep in on a Saturday. Real recharging requires proper self-care—intentional, purposeful plans to reboot your system according to your needs, wants and wellness priorities.
Some call it a spa day, but I call my preferred self-care experience, beauty therapy. Time where I spend not only taking care of my hair, skin and body, but also my psyche, where I can just take my mind off work and let the experts prescribe and perform rejuvenating treatments that address all my issues—beauty-related ones, at least—triggered by the tolls of stress, age and not-so-healthy habits that come with fast-paced urban living.
