Who’s joining me this month for a 24-day Self-Care & Sharing Advent? ✨

Here are a few gentle prompts to help us pause, breathe, and nourish our wellbeing during what can be a busy — and sometimes overwhelming — time of year.
Feel free to follow them in order, choose at random, or even swap a few to suit your own needs. What matters most is taking a moment each day to show yourself some love, or to share a little kindness with others — without the pressure of mass consumerism.

I’m doing it… and I’d love you to join me. 💛

Day 1 — Set Your Intention

Write one sentence that captures how you want to feel this month. Calm, connected, grounded, joyful?

Day 2 — Morning Stretch Ritual

Begin the day with 3 minutes of slow stretching or a mindful yawn-and-reach.

Day 3 — Hydration Reset

Add lemon, mint or berries to your water and aim to sip mindfully throughout the day.

Day 4 — Declutter One Thing

Choose one drawer, shelf or app and let go of something that’s been taking up space.

Day 5 — Mini Meditation

Five minutes of stillness. Focus on your breath dropping lower into your body.

Day 6 — Share a Compliment

Offer a sincere compliment to someone—it lifts you both.

Day 7 — Nourish Your Skin

Self-massage with oil or moisturiser; slow, circular movements.

Day 8 — Gratitude List

Write down three things that are going well for you today.

Day 9 — Fresh Air Reset

Take a 10-minute outside walk, even if it’s chilly. Notice colour, sound and movement.

Day 10 — Digital Sunset

Turn off screens 1 hour before bed. Candlelight, soft lighting, or just quiet.

Day 11 — Share Something Helpful

Send a kind message, a tip, or a resource to someone who might need it.

Day 12 — Aromatherapy Moment

Diffuse or dab calming oils (lavender, bergamot, eucalyptus).
Or simply breathe in something that smells comforting.

Day 13 — Heart-Opening Stretch

Chest-opening pose or gentle backbend to invite more breath.

Day 14 — Drink Something Warm

A Slow Cup Ritual—tea, cacao, broth. Hold it, smell it, sip it gently.

Day 15 — Creative Pause

Doodle, write a sentence, bake something small, arrange flowers—anything simple.

Day 16 — Tension Release

Do a 60-second body scan and soften your jaw, shoulders, belly.

Day 17 — Share Your Story

Post or tell someone something that helped you recently so they feel less alone.

Day 18 — Mindful Eating Moment

Choose one meal or snack and eat it slowly without distraction.

Day 19 — Warm Feet Ritual

Foot soak, warm socks, or a little foot massage before bed.

Day 20 — Laugh or Smile Prompt

Watch or read something light-hearted. Share it with someone.

Day 21 — Declutter Your Mind

Write down three things you can release—worries, tasks, or expectations.

Day 22 — Connection Check-In

Call or message someone you’ve been meaning to reach out to.

Day 23 — Prepare a Space

Tidy or cosy-up a corner: a candle, a blanket, a book—your mini sanctuary.

Day 24 — Self-Compassion Gift

Write yourself a kind letter or note.
Reflect on what you managed, learned, and held this year.
Seal it or keep it somewhere special.

Honouring the men who show up with heart, strength and vulnerability.
Today, on International Men’s Day, we celebrate the dads, father-figures and mentors who quietly hold so much — and often forget to take space for themselves. In support of our dad's, we are offering generous discounts on our Barefoot Dad's Retreat in May 2026.
These discounts are available until December 31st and can be purchased directly or as a gift voucher.

https://www.wyevalleywellness.uk/barefoot-dads

At Barefoot Dads, we’ve created a retreat where men can slow down, reset and reconnect with who they are outside the roles they carry.
A space to breathe deeply.
A space to talk openly.
A space to rediscover grounding, confidence and calm — present and supported.

This isn’t about being perfect.
It’s about being human.
And recognising that wellbeing, connection and rest matter just as much for men as anyone else.

Here’s to the men choosing growth, choosing softness, choosing to take care of themselves so they can show up fully in their families and their lives.
You deserve it.

Why Massaging Your Partner—Without Sexual Intention—Builds a Stronger, Safer Love

There’s something deeply powerful about offering your partner a massage with no agenda. No pressure. No expectation. Just care.

When touch isn’t tied to intimacy or outcome, it becomes a language of safety. It tells your partner:
“Your comfort matters. Your body deserves rest. You are worth slowing down for.”

This kind of nurturing, non-sexual touch:
✨ Reduces tension and stress
✨ Builds emotional safety
✨ Creates connection without performance
✨ Shows love in its simplest, purest form
✨ Strengthens trust—because they know you’re there for them, not because you want something, but because you care.

In a world that moves fast, taking a quiet moment to soothe tired shoulders or ease aching muscles becomes an act of devotion.
It’s intimacy of a different kind: grounded, gentle, and genuinely supportive.

Sometimes the most meaningful touch is the one that asks for nothing in return.

If this topic speaks to you, and you’d love to learn how to confidently massage your partner,
we’d love to welcome you onto our Small Group Massage for Couples Course.
A gentle, supportive space to learn skills that deepen connection, trust, and relaxation at home.
