Be Happy Doing Nothing
Contrary to popular belief, there is a lot to be said for this time of the year. The house feels bigger for not being full of decorations. You suddenly seem to have more time on your hands as you are no longer trying to squeeze in parties and gift-buying to your already busy schedule. The weather is too appalling to do much at all, which makes the odd leisurely walk when the sun does break through feel all the more sacred.
If like me the gym is not for you, then rather than forcing yourself into frenetic gym-attending and bodily cleansing, why not just take this opportunity to relax, unwind and think about the year ahead? Spend some time just breathing, being and catching up. As a bear of little brain once said:
“Don’t underestimate the value of Doing Nothing, of just going along, listening to all the things you can’t hear, and not bothering”
A.A. Milne
The concept of doing nothing is fairly alien to us all in our busy lives of emails, texts and tweets, but nothing makes us feel more renewed and recharged than a little time spent doing not very much, either on our own or with those we love.
When is the last time you really noticed the shape of your fingernails, the lines on your hands? Consider what your hands, or your partner’s hands, do every day. Perhaps they deserve a little time spent rewarding them for all their hard work?
While away a long winter evening with a lovingly-executed hand massage, with SEAMS of course!
Make yourself warm and comfortable, settle down and enjoy:
Smooth a generous layer of SEAMS Hand Cream into the skin in long smooth strokes starting at the wrist, down to the fingertips.
Gently massage SEAMS into one finger at a time, making circular motions over all three joints on each finger and gently pull each fingertip away from the hand.
Turn your palm over and use your opposite thumb to massage in deep, circular movements.
Go to bed and sleep well knowing that while you are doing nothing, SEAMS ingredients are working hard for your hands.
