What does your self care routine consist of? Mine is pretty simple yet complex. The water trickles down my skin sending a shiver through my spine. I scrub my body preparing for the good night's sleep waiting for me upstairs. My soft brown skin shimmers under the water making me love my body for what it is. I get out of the shower and grab my favourite lilac purple towel and pat myself dry. Now I have done the first part of my self-care routine. I head to my room and I grab my lotion. I spread it around my body admiring the scent it gives off. I make sure it sinks into my skin leaving it to feel soft and smooth. I grab my favourite sweatpants and a hoodie and put them on making me feel warm throughout my body. I am now done with the second step of my self-care routine. Finally, I grab a book and jump onto my bed. I pull the covers over my waist and open my book up to my bookmark. I began reading word by word, my mind now sinking into an endless world of imagination. Reading is where I find calmness in my day. As time goes by, my knowledge and love for reading expand but unfortunately, my body needs rest. I hesitantly close my book and set it on my nightstand and turning off my night light. I set my head on the pillows and stare up into my ceiling, reliving the events of today. I feel my eyes slowly close and I drift off into my dreamland.
