D-Xirable Moments!!! (1.21.2021-1.23.2021)

 Hello loves,

I haven’t posted in a while because it has been a busy week. I didn’t carve out much time for self-care on a daily basis this week. However, I did enjoy some moments of self-care during the week. 

Here were some of my self-care moments:

The name of the restaurant I went to - Sushi Haru!

The super yummy and delicious Spicy Crab roll I ate!

I ate some sushi on Thursday! I’ve been craving sushi for months now and noticed that we had a sushi place right around the corner from my apartment. It’s called “Sushi Haru.” The spicy crab roll was so delicious! I can’t wait to go back! I definitely considered this a self-care moment as I enjoyed every bite of this! This came with 8 rolls by the way, I had just devoured 2 of them when I took this photo.

My beautiful Pothos plant!

Another pic of my Pothos plant!

Friday was plant watering day of course! I love when it’s time to water my plant! Seeing my plants makes me happy! This is my bigger Pothos plant. This photo is the best I can get for now since it’s in my plant stand. This photo doesn’t really show her length. She’s actually wrapped around this plant stand several times. Anyways, she’s the beauty that I wanted to show today. This Pothos was given to me by my mom. Her Pothos plant grew so big that she gave me a piece of it to grow my own. So sweet!

Naked’s Strawberry Banana Juice!

Today, I started my day by organizing my room a bit. I organized my table, the top of my storage cube, and the top of my tote by the door. It looks a lot better now. I have more organizing to do still but it was nice to tidy up a bit while I had time to do it.

After I organized my room a bit, I had breakfast and drank some of my favorite juice. I love this Strawberry Banana juice by @nakedjuice!

A photo from my walk!

Another pic from my walk!

I went on a short walk outside to get some air! I love nature. Nature is so beautiful!

“Joyful Essential Oil Blend” by Melanated Essentials!

I used this “Joyful Essential Oil Blend” by @melanated_essentials for my next step of self-care today. 

Hope you enjoyed the post today!

D-Xirable Moments!!! (1.18.2021)

 Hello loves,

Today’s post will be super short! 
These were a few of my moments of self-care today.

11:Eleven Care Co’s “Calm It Down” Scrub

I started my day with a nice, relaxing bath using this lavender scrub, “Calm It Down” from @11elevencareco!

Melanated Essentials “Zen Meditation” Essential Oil Roll-On

I used this “Zen Meditation” blend by @melanated_essentials for my next step of self-care. The plan was to do a meditation shortly after I put it on my neck and wrist, however, I didn’t do meditation until the end of the day.

I listened to “Experience Your Mind Like an Ocean Meditation”

I couldn’t connect with the first meditation that I chose tonight so I did another one. The second meditation was “Experience Your Mind Like an Ocean Meditation” recorded by @ms.melanatedessentials! It was 12 minutes long. I connected with this one a lot better than the first one.

Hope you enjoyed the post!

Sincerely,
LaTasha B.

D-Xirable Moments!!! (1.15.2021)

 Hello my loves,

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

Bigelow - Chamomile Vanilla with Honey Tea

My first self-care item today was a cup of @bigelowtea Chamomile Vanilla and Honey herbal tea. I let the leaves sit in a little longer today and I enjoyed it better.

Melanated Essentials - “Zen Meditation” Essential Oil Roll-On Blend

I used this “Zen Meditation” blend by @melanated_essentials for my next step of self-care. It’s one of my faves!

It’s Friday so that means I watered all of the plants today. I will be showing one of my plants as usual and then my terrarium since I trimmed it a bit.

My baby Pothos plant given to me by my sweet cousin, Martice!

This is my baby Pothos plant. This baby was given to me by my awesome cousin @marticesmithart! I love this plant so much and she has grown a bit since I’ve gotten her. Look how beautiful she is!

My beautiful terrarium!

I love it so much that I have to show it twice!

This is my beautiful terrarium! I love her so much! The plants have grown in here since I created her. The polka dot plant has really taken off! She grew over the top of the terrarium, however, I trimmed her down some to make the terrarium look neater for a pic. The nerve plant (fittonia) has grown some too. I love my terrarium!

A pic outside of the snow!

Another pic outside of the snow!

It snowed today. I had to go outside and take a pic of the snow! It’s so beautiful (to look at though)! I went on a quick walk as well until the wind was blowing strong. Then, I went back inside.

Hope you enjoyed this post!

With love,

D-Xirable Moments!!! (1.10.2021)

Hello loves,

My self-care started late today. I slept in late today, prepared to have my niece and nephews over, and then continued to watch this amazing show for an hour. I have one episode left. 

Bigelow - “Chamomile Vanilla and Honey” Tea

Anyways, my first self-care item was a cup of @bigelowtea Chamomile Vanilla and Honey herbal tea. I love the Chamomile one so when I saw this one in the store, I wanted to try it. I love vanilla. This tea is just okay, I prefer the chamomile one by itself better. But this won’t be the last time I drink it.

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

The second item on my self-care list today was @melanated_essentials Anxiety Blend essential oil roll-on!!! Again, I love the smell of it and it does calm my nerves.


Calm - Breathing Exercise “Breathe In”

Calm - Breathing Exercise “Breathe Out”

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 but this breathing exercise came from their IG account!

“I Am” Affirmation - I appreciate everything I have in my life

“I Am” Affirmation - I am grateful for my best friend

“I Am” Affirmation - I am grateful for the people in my life

I ended the day with some positive affirmations with the “I Am” app. These three were my favorites today. I appreciate everything I have in my life. I am grateful for my best friend. I am grateful for the people in my life. So true!!!

Hope you enjoyed this post!!!

With love,

D-Xirable Moments!!! (1.8.2021)

 Hello loves,

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

My pretty pink Fittonia plant!

My fittonia plant!

Fittonia also known as a nerve plant!

It’s Friday!!! So, basically that means plant day!!! I woke up a little earlier this morning so I watered the plants first for a moment of self-care. I love seeing my plants. They’re all so beautiful!!! Today’s plant is my beautiful fittonia (nerve plant)!!! I have 3 of them but this is the only one in a pot. The plant and the pot are both pink!!! My fave color!!! My other two pink fittonia plants are in my terrarium. They have grown too. 

I haven’t showed my terrarium yet because I have some trimming to do. My polka dot plant has outgrown it so I need to trim it up. 

Anyways, I hope you enjoy the pics of this pretty plant!!!

Beautiful sky! Love the cloud formation!

Morning sky!

I went outside this morning to get some fresh air and to catch the sunrise. I went out a little too early for the sunrise but saw this beautiful cloud formation in the sky!!! So pretty!!!

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

I used @melanated_essentials “Invigorating Blend” roll-on essential oil for a moment of self-care. It was the first one I smelled this morning. It sit next to my bed with a few other essential oils from @melanated_essentials. 

I Am Affirmations - I am a beautiful soul

I Am Affirmation - I deserve to be happy

I Am Affirmation - By allowing myself to be happy,
I inspire others to be happy too

I started the day with some positive affirmations with the “I Am” app. These three are my favorites so far. I am a beautiful soul. I deserve to be happy. By allowing myself to be happy, I inspire others to be happy too. Love it!!!

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.

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!!! (12.28.2020)

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!!!

With love,
