Self-care habits to incorporate into your daily routine to help you stay calm, positive & grounded as we're all staying indoors. 🌱 Thank you uruoi for sponsoring this video! UA deep moisture gel: https://uruoiskincare.com/products/ua you can use “ROWENATSAI” to get 15% off your entire purchase.

When the whole world is slowing down, why not make use of all this found time and focus our energy on all the good that’s still left in the world? What’s currently unraveling before our eyes falls under the category of things we can’t change and don’t have control over. But what we can change and what we do have control over is ourselves and how we choose to gracefully roll with the punches.

In today's video, we're going over 10 of my tried & true self-care habits that’ll be helpful to seasoned homebodies and those of us who are just getting used to this new normal. Whether you’re watching this video now or a few months or years from now, I hope this period of staying at home will, more than anything else, allow you to find a little more inner-peace, stillness, and clarity.

Sending you all the biggest textvoiceeverything hug! Stay healthy & well my dearest potates!
