D-Xirable Moments!!! (12.31.2020)

 Hello loves,

Here were some of my self-care moments/items for today.

Melanated Essentials - “Anxiety Blend” Essential Oil Roll-On

My first item on my self-care list today was @melanated_essentials Anxiety Blend essential oil roll-on!!! Again, I put it on my wrist and neck!!! Another essential oil blend that I like the smell of!!! And it did calm my nerves.

Naked Strawberry Banana Juice

The next item on my self-care list was this Strawberry Banana juice from @nakedjuice!!! I’ve been craving a good strawberry banana smoothie lately so when I saw this in the store today, I had to try it!!! I must say, it’s super delicious!!! Last summer, I made strawberry smoothies some mornings to start my day, I didn’t do it this year though. This juice tastes close to my smoothie though.

Breath of Fresh Air

I went outside for a few minutes to get some fresh air and took this picture. I like the color on this plant. It’s a nice blend of color!!! So beautiful!!!

11:Eleven Care Co Lavender Scented Candle

My last post of self-care moments today is this lavender candle from @11elevencareco!!! I love it so much!!! 

Hope you enjoyed this post!!!

D-Xirable Moments!!! (12.30.2020)

Hello loves,

These were some of my moments of self-care today.

Nature picture while getting some fresh air

This morning, I went outside and got a breath of fresh air before I went to work. It’s still cold outside but I enjoyed the air.

Melanated Essentials - “Invigorating Blend” Essential Oil roll-on

I used @melanated_essentials “Invigorating Blend” roll-on essential oil for a moment of self-care. I love the smell of this roll-on. I put it on my neck and wrist. It was a good choice as it did awaken and relax me.

Close to 10 minutes “Ocean” Meditation recorded by Shaunte

I listened to an “Ocean” meditation this morning recorded by @ms.melanatedessentials. I love being by an ocean. It’s my happy place. So, I enjoyed listening to this meditation and visualizing being at the beach. It was a nice, approx. 10 minute meditation.

Daily Gratitude by Calm

Another item of self-care today. Things I’m grateful for using the @calm App - Faith, Family, and Friends.

Hope you enjoyed the post!!!

D-Xirable Moments!!! (12.29.2020)

Hello loves,

Here are some of my self-care moments of the day.

A breath of fresh air outside. There’s some snow!

I took a moment of self-care by going outside for a few minutes. I didn’t stay out long because it was cold. I just wanted to get a breath of fresh air and get a picture of the little snow that was outside. 

Listening to some music - H.E.R. Station on Pandora

I didn’t have much time before I had to get to work today so I listened to the H.E.R. radio station on @pandora while I worked. I definitely consider listening to music self-care time even if I was working while doing it.

A cup of Nestle Mini Marshmallow Hot Cocoa

Because there was some snow outside, I decided to drink some @nestleusa Mini Marshmallow Hot Cocoa today. I took a break from work to drink it.

Listening to some music - Adele Station on Pandora

After my short break, I went back to work and listened to the Adele station on @pandora. I love Adele!

Hope you enjoyed the post!

With love,

D-Xirable Moments!!! (12.28.2020)

Hello loves,

Here were some of today’s moments of self-care.

A cold cup of water

Today, I started my self-care moment with 2 cups of water. I drink water daily but since I chose water over my chamomile tea or hot cocoa, I decided to take a picture of the cup of water.

A walk outside in nature

I took another walk today for my next self-care moment. It was cold outside today but I went ahead and went on the walk. I took this photo today during my walk.

“Zen Mediation” Roll-On Essential Oil Blend by Melanated Essentials

I used this “Zen Meditation” blend by @melanated_essentials for my next step of self-care. I love the smell of this essential oil (it’s one of my faves) and I love that it’s a roll-on blend. I used it on my wrist and neck.

A “Yoga Nidra” mediation recorded by Shaunte

I took another moment of self-care by listening to 15 minutes of a Yoga Nidra meditation recorded by @ms.melanatedessentials. It’s 30 minutes long but I only did 15 minutes of it. Long enough to do sound, body, and breath observations.

Hope you enjoyed today’s post!!!

D-Xirable Moments!!! (12.27.2020)

 Hello loves,

These were some of today’s self-care moments.

My first self-care moment started with getting some rest today. Normally one day out of the weekend is used to get some rest. 

“Zen” Essential Oil by mEssentials or Wild Essentials

Then, my self-care moment continued with using the Zen essential oil by mEssentials which is now called Wild Essentials. I like the smell of Zen and another one called Inner Peace. Today’s choice was Zen.

Oil diffuser by Pure Enrichment

I then put the Zen oil in my super cute diffuser by @pureenrichment. I love this diffuser. It’s so pretty and it changes colors!!!

Breath In Bubble by Calm

Breathe Out Bubble by Calm

The next step of self-care was using the @calm breathing exercise for relaxing. I did it for 3 minutes. I love the Calm App!

Daily Gratitude by Calm

Another item of self-care today. Things I’m grateful for using the @calm App - Family, Quiet Time, and God.

Walk Outside in Nature

I went on a walk outside for another moment of self-care. It was chilly today but I enjoyed how the sun peeked out from the clouds. This is the best photo of the sky I got.

Hope you enjoyed this post!

D-Xirable Moments!!! (12.26.2020)

Hello loves,

Here were some of my self-care moments and moments of reflection today...

Beach sunset in the Bahamas

Early morning reflection: I miss the beach and the ocean. I normally try to take a trip to the beach during the year but this year was different. Due to COVID, the trip that my best friend and I had planned was cancelled... I miss seeing the ocean, especially the ocean at sunset. This is a photo from my trip to the Bahamas in 2019 with my best friend.

Morning sunrise

Speaking of the sun, I woke up early enough today to see the sunrise. I haven’t seen a sunrise in a while. Normally, I would see it on my way into work but since I haven’t been in the office lately, I haven’t went outside to see it.

Lavender Scented Candle from 11:Eleven Care Co

I bought this lavender scent candle from @11elevencareco. I finally lit it today for a moment of self-care. I love the smell of this candle!!! As you already know, I love lavender!!!

Favorite Tree (Especially during the Fall)

I went on another quick walk today since it was decent outside. I took a picture of my favorite tree. I really love this tree in the Fall because she has really pretty red autumn leaves on her. Of course, she doesn’t now because it’s winter but maybe I’ll get another photo of her next Fall.

Nestle Mini Marshmallow Hot Cocoa

Last self-care picture of the day. Today’s drink of choice is hot cocoa. I love hot cocoa. I normally drink it every morning in the office but since I’m at home, I occasionally drink it every now and then. At work, I normally add some vanilla creamer but since we don’t keep that at home, I drink it with sugar instead. It’s @nestleusa Mini Marshmallow Hot Cocoa.

Hope you enjoyed the post!!!

With love,

D-Xirable Moments!!! (12.25.2020)

Hello loves,

I haven’t been on my blog for over three years. I didn’t really feel much like blogging then. Since the last post, I was more interested in enjoying and living life then posting about it. I may revamp this blog as my focus has changed quite a bit. I might make this a blog more focused on my moments of self-care and reflection. I’m not sure. Anyways, here are some of my favorite self-care things to do and some of my favorite self-care products.

“Calm It Down” scrub from 11:Eleven Care Co

Today’s self-care started with a bath using @11elevencareco’s “Calm It Down” scrub. I’ve used it every morning for the past 3 days. It’s so good. It helps me calm down my nerves and is a nice way to start of my day. The lavender in it is amazing and I definitely love lavender.

Cozy Chamomile Tea by Bigelow

The next step of self-care today was some cozy chamomile tea. I love chamomile tea. It tastes so good to me. For now, I drink Cozy Chamomile tea by @bigelowtea. I have others but a co-worker brought some of this in from work so I’ve been drinking it. Plus I love the taste. The tea is delightful.

Palm plant

I also watered the plants today which to me is another step in self-care. I have over 10 plants and I love them all. I water them every Friday. I originally chose Sunday to water them since I normally work my 9-5 Monday-Friday but due to COVID I’ve been mostly working from home so I can water them on Friday’s instead. This is one of my beautiful plants. It’s a palm plant.

Walk Outside in Nature

Another self-care moment. I went on a quick walk today. I normally don’t go on a walk during the fall and winter because it’s so cold outside but I did today. I had to mail a card anyways. I love nature and being outdoors but mainly when it’s warm outside.

Hope you enjoyed the post!

Merry Christmas, everyone and have an amazing holiday season!!!

With love,
LaTasha B.
