When you think self care, do sheet masks, essential oils, and the subsequent self-care selfies come to mind? You’re not alone, but Cyndi Ramirez, founder of Chillhouse—a self-care sanctuary that brings manicures, massages, and CBD-infused everything to New York City—wants you to know that the practice doesn’t have to live in a cute box for it to be effective.
“Self care is different for everyone and it doesn’t have to be this big production,” Ramirez says. “It can be as easy as finding those times where you’re not surrounded by anybody and you can actually unplug.”
So… how do you actually do that? In the video above, the chill-out pro drops her three tips for unlocking your own ability to slow down, be present, and make time for you.
The one constant? Don’t judge yourself: “There is no wrong or right way to do self care, and you have to get comfortable knowing there will be bumps in the road.”
Watch the video above for more pointers on maximizing your self-care routine from Ramirez herself.
