Create an Inexpensive Care Package for At-Home Relaxation

Whip up this easy and inexpensive care package for yourself or someone you love.

Self-care and relaxation are big words these days. Especially right now when we’re all stressed and worried about incomes, work, and more. That’s why this quick and easy care package that doesn’t cost a ton of money is perfect for pampering yourself or someone you love.

Just grab the items you want to include and put them together in a pretty but cheap basket — or even a pretty gift bag would work. Deliver them to your loved one or leave them in a prominent and convenient location in your home so you’ll be reminded to put them to use.

Positive affirmations

Grab some sticky notes or small pieces of paper and write some positive affirmations on them. Fold them up and toss them in a box or jar. You or your recipient can reach in and pull one or two out when a little pick-me-up is needed.

You could also use a computer to type them all up and print it out, then just cut the affirmations out to make it easier.

Try to personalize the affirmations to the recipient. Write about things that you know there is insecurity or doubt around to give an extra boost.
