White Christmas. Snow flakes are still missing... and I sooo want a white Christmas. There is still time, isn't there?

Eight days until great happiness:) A hug from my wonderful mom that will, as she always does, welcome me with here arms wide open, with a table full of various cakes and delicacies and of course the greatest smile! Family is everything! Family always makes you feel welcome. You forget about all troubles and just give in to the joy and togetherness. That is how it's going to be like in my home this holiday season. If only with all that happiness we would have a white Christmas:) Maybe we will…

But, these eight days that have to pass I have to use for myself. I want to give myself a little attention and nurture. All of us are easily found in the situation where we realize how much we give ourselves in making others happy. But have you done something for yourself these holidays? Besides gifts you got for your loved ones did you get a gift for yourself as well? I haven't yet but I will!

I take my planner and make a plan for the next eight days. For today I gladly plan relaxation. After my work I will go jogging and after that I will get a massage. In the evening I will take a relaxing bath. My Dea Flores Lavander essential oil that I bought in the pharmacy the other day will come to use:) Also, I found a simple beauty mask recipe on the Alavi web. After the mask look forward to applying the Alavi Night cream and relaxing my mind with a good book and music on the radio. Sometimes we need so little..

In these cold holiday days it takes only a few moments for myself to feel fulfilled. Warm bath, warm bed, quality cosmetics and a good book can be all your body and mind need.

This holiday season do all you can to make your loved ones happy, but also do something for yourself. Make a small, simple wish – and fulfill it yourself!

Welcome white Christmas relaxed and healthy. In the arms of your loved ones! XOXO
