The January Reset: Mind, Body, and Home

By  | 
The last traces of Christmas have now been fully packed away, (the debate for when you packed yours away is an entirely different piece!) January stretched before us like a crisp, new notebook and we survived the post-Christmas slump. So as we head into February what better time to embrace the opportunity for a full reset? This isn’t about the punishing detoxes or fleeting resolutions we may have promised ourselves at the beginning of the year; this is about cultivating sustainable habits that nourish your mind, body, and the space you inhabit for the rest of the year.
 
Beyond decluttering your physical space, this is the perfect time to refresh your mental landscape. Nurturing a positive mindset is key to a successful reset.
Read on for product recommendations and tips.
 
Consider these essential tools:
 
  • Journaling & Goal Setting: Ditch rigid resolutions and embrace mindful intentions. Use a dedicated journal for daily reflection, gratitude, and setting intentions that align with your values.
  • Digital Detox & Boundaries: Combat digital overwhelm by implementing a weekly “digital sunset” or designated screen-free time. Reclaim your evenings and reconnect with yourself.
  • Mindfulness Practices: Carve out just 10 minutes each day for meditation, breathwork, or deep breathing exercises. These simple practices can calm the nervous system and reduce stress.
  • Continuous Learning: Sharpen your mind and spark creativity by engaging in hobbies or reading books outside your normal comfort zone. Challenge yourself to learn something new each month.
  • Mindset Kits: Curate a collection of tools to support your mental well-being. This could include gratitude cards, mindfulness planners, or educational books like ‘The Burnout Doctor,’ offering guidance and support for navigating modern life.

The Flow Neuroscience Depression Treatment Headset

Developed in Sweden, the Flow headset is a clinically proven, medication-free treatment for depression.

The Flow Neuroscience Depression Treatment Headset offers a novel approach to managing depression through gentle brain stimulation. This innovative device utilises transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) to deliver a low-level electrical current to the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, an area of the brain associated with mood regulation. By stimulating this region, the headset aims to re-balance neural activity and alleviate symptoms of depression, such as low mood, fatigue, and difficulty concentrating. Paired with a companion app offering personalised behavioural therapy, the Flow headset provides a holistic and accessible treatment option for individuals seeking a non-pharmacological approach to improving their mental well-being

Home - Creating a Sanctuary

Declutter and Organise: Tackle one area of your home each week, de-cluttering and organising one space at at time.  Start with a small area like your bedside table or a single drawer. Donate or sell items you no longer need or use.

Create a Cosy Atmosphere: Add soft textures, warm lighting, and natural elements like plants to create a cosy and inviting atmosphere. Invest in a plush throw blanket, string up fairy lights, and bring in some houseplants to purify the air.

Invest in Scents: Fill your home with uplifting scents. Try a scent that evokes feelings of calm and relaxation, such as lavender or sandalwood.

Emma Hug Weighted Blanket

Stress and anxiety are the biggest enemies of a good night’s sleep. This is due to the nervous system activating the “fight or flight” response. If you are experiencing this vicious circle a weighted blanket will help you fall asleep and feel more relaxed during the day. Weighted blanket users compare the embrace and added weight of the blanket with that of a hug; it’s welcoming and comforting, whether you are alone or not. You get the cosiness of a blanket paired with the reassurance of a hug whenever you want it.
