The Ultimate Wind Down Routine For Your Sunday

Sunday’s are definitely my least favourite day of the week, I love having a lay in and not waking up to my alarm, even though I love my job, I hate my alarm so much. Lately I’ve had an amazing routine in place that helps me relax and not only that it works wonders for my anxiety. I’ve managed to put an amazing routine in place that helps me to have the ultimate relaxation session to prepare for a super busy week at work. So what are my favourite ways to wind down?

Cosy Clothes

I spend my life in cosy clothes, but on a Sunday you’re likely to find me curled up in my cat PJ’s and large fluffy socks. There is nothing I love more than being ridiculously comfortable and forgetting about the world. You’ll also find me in my super comfy hoody so if you want me to do anything on a Sunday, don’t expect me to be wearing jeans…

Reading

I’ve mentioned over the last few months, I’ve managed to get back into my reading, and already this year I have read 8 books. You can follow me on Goodreads to find out what I’ve been reading! I really love reading thrillers and books that have a lot of suspense, but I’ve found so many amazing books lately that I’ve loved reading so much, my favourite has been Silent Victim, it was so good, I would definitely recommend it.

Candles

I have lavender candles everywhere and honestly I find them so soothing, they calm me down and relax me, especially when I’m trying to fall asleep. I always struggle to sleep because I am such a light sleeper and a bit of an overthinker, but the candles really do help, I start to burn them about an hour before bed, and then blow them out before I go to sleep. The scent has already filled the room and it makes it super cosy.

Sleep Sprays

If you’re not a fan of candles, I also really like sleep sprays, I’ve tried multiples, but I really like Feather & Down sleep spray, it isn’t overpowering and it a really nice spray that lasts for ages. It is always my go to spray when I’ve run out of my candles, it is also really refreshing for me too!

Skincare Routines

I’ve been so on my skincare routine lately that I am really noticing a massive difference in my skin, especially when I apply make up. My skin feels happier, it isn’t as dry as it used to be and my break outs are less angry than they used to be. I’ve talked about so many skincare products lately, you will know my favourites, what my go to products are for my skin type. A good skincare routine is always amazing.

Netflix

My obsession with Netflix is at an all time high, I’ve got so many shows I want to watch that have basically been on my list for so long and yet I still manage to go back to Friends, Pretty Little Liars and Gossip Girl because they are just so easy for me to watch while I get ready for work. Having a routine where you just relax, watch lots of amazing programmes and just chill is amazing, and that is one of the things I love about Netflix, you can just get so caught up in the programmes and if you’re feeling stressed you can literally feel like you’re elsewhere.
