10 Ways to Practise Self-Care with CBD

International Self-Care Day (24th July) is a special occasion dedicated to reminding us of the importance of taking care of ourselves. Self-care is crucial for maintaining overall wellbeing, and one excellent tool to incorporate into your self-care routine is CBD oil. Cannabidiol (CBD) has gained popularity for its potential health benefits, including restoring balance, promoting relaxation, reducing pain and enhancing focus. It’s also super easy to add to your daily routine! In this article, we will explore ten easy and effective ways to practise self-care with CBD.

How Can CBD Enhance Your Self-Care Rituals? 

CBD serves as a valuable aid for those seeking to embrace the practice of self-care. Relaxation can be challenging for many of us, as the constant chatter in our minds can hinder the process. Fortunately, CBD acts as a tool to quiet those inner voices and promote a state of ease. By reducing mental noise, CBD enables us to be more mindful and fully present, enhancing our ability to enjoy and engage in self-care activities. 

10 Ways to Infuse CBD Into Your Self-Care Routine

1.     Use CBD Balm on Temples and Wrists Before Yoga and Meditation

Yoga and meditation are powerful self-care practices that promote mindfulness and balance. Enhance your practice by applying CBD Heat Balm on your temples and wrists before starting. The deeply warming sensation and aromatic terpenes, coupled with CBD's potential calming properties, can help you achieve a state of balance and bring your focus to the present moment.

2.     Establish a CBD Skincare Regime

Healthy skin is an integral part of self-care. CBD-infused skincare products offer a range of benefits, such as increased hydration, sebum reduction and potentially diminished acne. Establishing a CBD skincare routine can provide a natural and nourishing way to care for your skin. Try Hyaluronic Acid + CBD Facial Serum for a serious hydration boost, Retinol + CBD Moisturiser to boost cell turnover and fight signs of ageing, or even use a homemade CBD face mask

3.     Try Day + CBD Oil Before Reading 

Reading alleviates stress, improves memory, heightens empathy and exercises the brain, and is hugely beneficial in the practise of self-care. If you struggle with maintaining focus or a racing mind, find a quiet spot that is free from distractions (leave your phone in another room!) before you settle down with your favourite read. Incorporating CBD oil into your routine may also help. Studies suggest that CBD can have a positive impact on cognitive function and may aid in clearing the mind. Consider taking a few drops of Day + CBD Oil before reading to enhance focus and concentration.

CBD may enhance focus, reduce exercise-induced stress and potentially improve athletic performance. Apply Pre-Workout Oil before your workout to boost energy levels, promote concentration and optimise your performance.
