 Hey guys it's Jess and welcome back to my channel. So today's video is one that is short to melt all your stress away. It's my de-stress pamper routine. So I know you guys love my routine videos so I really wanted to make another one and I thought I would put a little bit of a twist on it and show you guys how I relax and just look after myself throughout a really busy year. So I really think it's important that you always take time out just to care for yourself, to do something nice for yourself every day whether it's to have a bath, make a tea and watch your favorite show, whatever it is just so that you don't experience burning out as the year goes on. So don't forget to thumbs up if you enjoy it and of course if you're new, subscribe so you can join in and get notified whenever I post up my study tip videos and let's get into my de-stress pamper routine. You can actually smell the essential oils I've been burning today. So nice. All right let's get started. Okay first thing I like to do for my de-stress pamper routine is you guessed it go and take a yoga class and I usually like to do a yin restorative class which is more meditation and stretching than an active class just if I'm feeling a little bit tired. So I walk down to my yoga studio and take a class and then when I come back sometimes I'll also grab a green smoothie. This one's also got some berries and banana so it's quite sweet. I really love it and I think it's so important when thinking about de-stressing to focus on your mind and your body as well. So you want to get lots of good vitamins into your body and make sure you're looking after yourself and taking good care of yourself. And then something else I really love to do after a yoga class, after using my body and stretching it out is to take a nice relaxing and hot bath and sometimes I will have a bubble bath other times I won't. Comment below if you guys prefer bubble bath or no bubbles or if you guys even use a bath bomb because I haven't actually tried one of those. And sometimes I'll also light some candles just to set the mood and sometimes I'll listen to music other times I'll just lie there in silence and ponder the world. And then something else I'll do is make a cup of tea and this one's a really relaxing one. It's by Puca Tea and it's the love tea so it's got rose and lavender and chamomile and I also really like to light a candle and some incense or burn some essential oils. So I love burning lavender oil or lemongrass oil those two are my absolute favorites and I'll just put it in my little oil burner next to the TV and then I usually like to curl up on the couch and just read one of my favorite books or I don't know just watch some TV as well and just bask in the aroma of my beautiful essential oils. So at the moment I am reading a couple of different books I kind of swap between the two one of them is called work smarter live better and the other one is the life plan so I'm just gonna pop on my new reading glasses. I love these buns they're so fun I thought I really wanted to go for something different so sipping my tea and then yeah just picking up where I left off in one of my books and I actually also have a pencil there because I really like to make notes as I read if I find something really interesting or I want to share something with you guys too so yeah I could honestly just sit on the couch for a good couple of hours and then finally I guess I'll just have to peel myself off the couch to do something else. So yeah I just really like to sit and I like that spot in particular because it's where the sunshine comes in in my apartment and even if it's raining outside then I can just look out the window as well so yeah I just really like to have a really easygoing and slow pace day when I'm trying to just relax and pamper myself. So I don't know about you guys but I'm feeling pretty relaxed right now so I hope you guys did enjoy it and thumbs up if you did if you want to check out some previous videos you can click the cards up above and also check out my study skills book the High School Survival Guide I'll link that in the description box as well.
