Last Saturday marked the first day of spring. What does that mean to you? Aside from the weather warming up, we’re seeing green sprouts in the dirt and robin birds nesting. The main theme of spring is rejuvenation! When it comes to wellness, we’re taking a page out of the budding plants’ books, and thinking about replenishment. These springtime wellness products are rooted in renewal!
As our monthly wellness series continues, we’re keeping mental health + physical wellness front of mind. Not trying to call out + blame 2020, but, yeah, that was a rough one! The last year put self-care and wellness at the forefront more than ever. So, let’s jump into all the wholeness that is our fave wellness picks, currently:
Beauty Care: Springtime Wellness Starts With Hydration + Exfoliation
Who else loves a good diffuser!?! Having good smells at home is so important! I’ve been loving this Happy Home Inspiring Diffuser Blend from Saje. It comes with 4 different amazing smells – perfect for daytime and evenings. Every scent is SOO good!! – Jen
Winter wreaked havoc on my hair and my lips. Everything is SO dried out, and my springtime wellness regimen needed to kick in. I turned to my trusty hair hydration cream and my favorite lip conditioner to get me back on track. – Jessi
I’ve been using this Kate Somerville ExfoliKate Intensive Pore Exfoliating Treatment mask 2-3 times a week for the past 3 months and I just LOVE it! The morning after my skin is glowy and super smooth! – Jen
Physical Care: Our Fave Workout From Home (WOFH) Videos, Plus Motivating Attire
WFH means workouts from home, too! Melissa Wood Health has short pilates videos that really turn things up with the short amount of workout time I have. Grab the free trial; and eventually you’ll want these weighted bangles + resistance bands. The only workout that I’ve ever found to be addicting. -Danielle
I needed to upgrade my sports bra and this one from Amazon is a winner! It’s under $25 and fits similar to my fave Lululemon bra! Win Win! Lots of color options as well. – Jen
Sometimes I need a little workout motivation, so I treat myself with a new set. I’m totally obsessed with my new Girlfriend Collective leggings! – Jessi
Favorite Nutrition Finds: Yerba Mate Drinks + Colorful, Spring Soups
I love these melatonin sleep capsules to help prep my body for a good night’s rest. The suggested dose is two, but I just take one about 30 minutes before bedtime. If I wake up restless, I’ll have the other. Mental health starts with sleep health! – Britt
Anyone else sometimes tire of coffee in the afternoon? I’ve been enjoying these Clean Cause Yerba Mate drinks for a healthy afternoon energy boost. Each can has 160mg of natural caffeine. Yerba Mate is said to provide longer lasting, sustained energy without the undesirable side effects of coffee or energy drinks. The drink is also low calorie and Low sugar and it’s crafted with USDA Certified Organic ingredients. I’ve tried all 4 flavors and love them all! Watermelon Mint is my current fave. And not only are they great tasting and good for you – 50% of their profits support addiction recovery. – Jen
Anyone else ready for colorful, fresh, springtime dinners? I’ve been overindulging in winter comfort foods, so we’ve been cooking lots of colorful/green soups from this list of spring soup recipes from Food & Wine! All my soups look picture perfect in these organic rimmed bowls. – Danielle
I’ve enjoyed getting into tea the last few months thanks to this beautiful kettle that actually inspires me to slow down. These wellness teas have been a favorite. Right now I really love the turmeric spice for immunity support and I want to try the mood tonic! – Britt
After watching the documentary, Seaspiracy on Netflix, I set out to find a good algae-sourced Omega-3. I just ordered these from Amazon that I’m really excited to try! – Jessi
Mental Health: Reading With Green Tea Eye Masks
Honestly, one of the best things I’ve done for my mental health this month (and this year) is prioritize reading again. Sometimes it just takes the right book to get you there. This one did it for me—and like 62,000 others. – Britt
Part of my WFH routine involves lighting my favorite candle to help me be productive and it’s my favorite morning ritual! – Katie
Even if it has been a restless night of to-do list anxiety, these green tea hydra gel eye masks instantly revive me (my face, at least). They’re vegan, and reduce puffiness….easiest springtime wellness product to use, ever! Journaling at night saves my mental health from spiraling – especially in a very ‘me’ kind of book like this one. – Danielle
See you next month for another edition of our favorite wellness products and finds! xoxo
