5 Self-Care Activities That We Love
Life can get a little crazy, so sometimes you just need to take some time to relax and unwind. In the spirit of taking care of yourself, here are some of our go-to self-care activities, from crafting to yoga in the park:
Pamper Yourself
Pampering yourself is one of the best ways to relax and unwind. Whether you treat yourself to a massage or give yourself an at-home facial, you’re taking time to invest in your well-being – and trust us, it’s worth it! Here are some of our favorite self-care activities to help get the ideas flowing:
- Get a massage
- Take a nap
- Do a facial
- Read a book
- Head to the nail salon
- Treat yourself to a movie
- Binge watch your new favorite show
- Draw yourself a bubble bath
- Get a haircut or blow out
- Take a trip to the mall
- Snuggle with your furry friend
Did we mention that all of these activities pair perfectly with a glass of bubbly?
Get Creative
Your arts and crafts may not always look as perfect as the guide you were following, but taking that time to stimulate your right brain and let your creativity run wild can help you feel refreshed from the everyday madness (plus there is the added bonus of a finished piece of art at the end of your self-care). Here are some of our go-to art-centric self-care activities:
- Do a guided wine and painting night
- Make handmade cards for loved ones
- Do some drawing
- Make a collage
- Head to a ceramics studio
- Check out the nearest pottery studio
- Build your new favorite playlist (+ discover new tunes)
- Dance because no one is watching
- Our go-to wine pairing for arts and crafts is Chardonnay.
Get Some Fresh Air
A little fresh air, whether it’s a walk around the neighborhood, a quick jog in the morning, or a hiking expedition, is a great way to tune out life’s rush. If you love yoga, take your mat to the park and if you love climbing, do a quick search for an outdoor climbing gym. Just pick your favorite activity and take it outside. Even 15 minutes in the sunshine can help turn a frown upside down or turn a smile into a grin.
Wine cans are perfect for on-the-go enjoyment. Woga (wine + yoga) anyone?
Write it Down
Journals, blogs, or diaries are all a great way to reflect on what’s going on in your life. Whether you’re stressed out or just want to take a moment to process the day, writing is a great way to take care of your health and well-being.

Food for Thought
Feeding yourself well can give you an extra boost when you need a little TLC. Opt for wholegrains, fruits, and veggies to give your body grade-A fuel for whatever the day has in store. If you’re pampering yourself, consider throwing together a charcuterie spread. If you’re spending the day hiking, pack a cactus salad for the picnic along the way.
For a wholesome meal full of fruits and veggies, Rosé is a perfect pairing.
