Bring on the cozy vibes and warm textiles. In the winter, your wellness routine needs a little extra TLC.
Here, how to style your bathroom for winter wellness.
The winter months can be hard on a psyche, especially if you live somewhere where it’s so dark in the early morning and late afternoon.
At first it’s all about gearing up for the holidays, then it’s about cleaning and getting back to your routine—both of these take time away from your own wellness.
While we can’t help you journal or meditate, the one thing we do know is how to set a scene that elicits feelings of comfort and warmth, aka your winter wellness.
Here, four tips for styling your bathroom in a way that brings a little extra kindness to your own spirit during the winter season.
Tip No. 01 | Warm Lighting
here is a variety of lighting to choose from, but the average lightbulb comes in two different options: warm and cool. During the winter months when all feels drab, switch your lightbulbs to soft white or warm bulbs. This lighting gives off a yellow-ish tint that feels warmer and cosy. Look for ways to incorporate a table lamp in your bathroom as well, perhaps on a small table adjacent to a soaking tub. Mood lighting is called mood lighting for a reason, it lifts your mood.
Tip No. 02 | Thick Throw
If you have been thinking about updating your bathroom textiles, now is the time. Nothing brings the cozy more than a ridiculously plush bathroom towel. If you have a large bathroom with some extra space, consider adding a comfy chair to the corner with a chunky throw draped over it. Even if you never sit on it, the look of it will do wonders to introduce some new cozy elements to the room.
Tip No. 03 | Play With Scent
When you’re taking a bath or shower light up a winter-centric candle—think Molton Brown recharge Black Pepper, this has been my go to for the last 10 years and l swear by it. I love candles by White and Company especial their Winter Signature Candle collection they are perfect for a perfect and powerful scent tool to set the scene for a warm winter wellness. Self-care is extremely important and should not be neglected in the winter months.
Tip No. 04 | The Great Outdoors for a workout. Fit summer bodies are built In Winter
Liven up your bathroom by bringing in some winter-friendly florals with tones of deep crimson, sage, and shades of cream. Or, if you have the spot for it, we love the idea of bringing in some freshly chopped wood, neatly stacked under a bench or in the corner. Making a design moment out of it not only allows for a styling statement but brings in scents of earth and spice.
But most importantly workout to stay fit and well
So enjoy your bathroom wellness time after a little sweet in the outdoor cold!
