As a busy mom, grandmother and wife…I know the importance of squeezing in “ME TIME” throughout the week. Taking little breaks from the day-to-day schedule can help to reduce stress, relieve tension, and overall refreshes your body and mind. I’m just a better and happier person when I enjoy a few little indulgences throughout my week.
Softsoap Body Wash knows the importance of “ME TIME” and challenged me to document my “ME TIME” over the course of a week, by taking photographs and making a photo diary of my “ME TIME” indulgences.
* This post is in partnership with Softsoap (Colgate Palmolive).
Before I get show you my photo diary…I wanted to let you know about the 4 Softsoap Body Washes that I received to help inspire me.
Hydra Bliss Hydrating Body Wash in Cucumber Water & Mint and Coconut Water & Blueberry fragrances.
Pure Zen Relaxing Body Wash in Jasmine & Watermint and Rosewater & Lotus Flower fragrances.
Once or twice a week I like to escape for 30 minutes into a quiet room to read a good book. Many of us don’t read books anymore due to the lack of time in our day-to-day schedules. I used to be one of them…until I blocked off two 30-minutes blocks of time every week to sit down and read. Not into reading? Just go sit in front of a fireplace, in front of big window and just veg for a few minutes every day.
During the evening hours I like to sit down for about 15-30 minutes to color. Yes, I enjoy those trendy adult coloring books! While watching a little TV during the evening hours, I will often sit down to color. I find it to be a great way to relax before heading to bed!
A few times every week I like to escape into my bathroom to enjoy a hot bubble bath! While taking a shower is quicker, soaking in the bathtub by candlelight is just a whole lot more relaxing! Of course…I use my favorite Softsoap Body Washes when I shower and bathe!
Like many of you…I enjoy arts and crafts! If I could spend 10 hours a day working on craft projects, I certainly would! Every week I try to squeeze in 1 hour of crafting time and last week I worked on a collage art project for a family member. Sitting down to work on a craft project is a great way to let your creative juices flow!
One of my favorite things to do every week is to give myself a manicure and pedicure. Every Saturday I pencil off 1 hour of “ME TIME” to do just that! I will typically turn a movie on and sit down to relax. I would rather do my own mani/pedi’s at home, than visiting a local salon. Sorry gals…I just prefer doing my nails myself!!!
So there you have it! Those are most of the ways that I squeezed in some “ME TIME” over the past week. How do you like to squeeze in “ME TIME” and what kind of activities do you enjoy doing?

I like to curl up on the couch and catch up with my reading. Every night I take a long hot bubble bath and just soak and relax. Nothing better to end the day.
I like sitting on my patio with a book, or giving myself a manicure. Lounging in the recliner with a dog, wine and the remote is another good “me time” moment for me.

For Me Time, I have a cup of coffee or cocoa and curl up on the couch. But in the morning I am a very early person and my husband is a late person so I have about 3 hours of Me Time most days before he gets up.

My ME time is getting a massage every other week.
I read every day. And I like listening to the radio before I fall asleep.

I actually have alot of free time. Been empty nested for awhile now and we are retired. I do my Daily choirs and play with my 2 Doggies and my pet Bunny. I love to watch mysteries on TV. I also love to play Solitare 3 Peaks on my computer. I take showers and really enjoy them with my Soft Soap Body Gels on my Puff Ball. To really relax I color in my adult coloring books.
