Feel Good Favourites
Don't Underestimate the Power of a Shower...
One common relaxation technique is to take a hot bath, but a calming, invigorating shower is often overlooked. Simply taking a steamy shower with Rituals Shower Foam both fully cleanses whilst clearing and calming your mind for an instant pick me up. If you’re a fan of citrus scents then Happy Buddha Shower Foam with organic mandarin is your best option. For a sweeter scent, opt for the Sakura Foaming Shower Gel with organic rice milk and cherry blossom. The Dao Foaming Shower Gel includes Yi Yi Ren and white lotus which is traditionally used in Chinese medicine for a fresh fragrance.
Take a Break on a Busy Day...
This feel good favourite is for those extremely busy days when you simply don’t have time to stop and relax. However, even when you aren’t in the comfort of your own home, you can still give yourself a little boost.

Roll onto your pulse points when you feel necessary, inhale and let the refreshing fragrance work its magic. This 100% natural product also lasts on skin for up to three hours.
