Is Self-Care on YouTube Too Much? My Simple Routine

I was scrolling through YouTube homepage. I searched for self-care routine and frankly, I was just overwhelmed. Self-care is different for everyone, for your personal need. However, when I looked at all the content that's on YouTube, I feel like a stress inducer. Just so many routines, so complicated, so time-consuming. For those of you like me, myself, who want a simpler self-care routine that takes care of your mind and body, not just isolated. I want to share with you today what I do to take care of myself, my body, so I can feel good inside and out. In this video, I'm going to focus on body care, body self-care. So if you've been following me and you've seen a few of my videos, I've made quite a few videos about LED devices, red light therapy devices, LED red light panels. It treats the larger area, my face, my back, chest. So red light in general is good for treating any type of skin conditions, eczema, acne, wrinkles. We promote wound healing, muscle recovery. I made a video about this panel, so I'll insert the short clip just after I do my workouts and if I'm suffering from soreness in a large area like my back. For targeted treatments, like if I have a bad pain in just this one particular area, let's say on my shoulder, I use this massage gun. Boban brand Q2 Ultramini massage gun. This is super lightweight, weighs about a pound. You can see, super small, simple and easy to use. Comes with five massage heads, long press to turn it on, especially like this massage head. For targeted relief, if I have a pain in a particular area of my neck, right here, feels super good. Oh, that's my little dog drinking water. By the way, this is super quiet, not the highest mode. This adjusts to five different speeds. Comes with five different massage heads. Like I said, this one has red light, turn it on. Red and infrared light therapy, two different modes, lower heat, higher heat, feel the heat. Favorite to next to this one, it's always good to feel the heat when you're getting a massage. Simple to change the massage heads, just screw it on and off. Everything fits in this super portable carry case and take it with you to the gym, in your travel. And just quickly, I'm going to give you an update on this Rajani MD Plasma Glow Duo. This is an under eye LED red light device to treat under eye dark circles, wrinkles. This device broke on me already. I have not even used it a year. What happened was, after consistent charging, one of these magnetic light devices don't even light up anymore, but this was working perfectly fine. I did not find that it was doing anything for me. Probably commented on this video that I made, the same thing happened, one of these sliding magnetic things didn't light up anymore. So if you are like me and love taking long hot showers, especially during the winter, my go-to towel is this Japanese exfoliating towel from Cima. What I love about this towel is that it exfoliates my skin gently, super long in length. Easy to get hard to reach areas like my back. Love the texture of this towel. This makes my soft a lot very well too. Infused with silver ion, promotes cell turnover, gently exfoliates, gets rid of my dead skin cells and antibacterial quick drying. This one's in blue, I've got another one in pink. Then what I follow up is this. This one hydrates body lotion from the same brand. This little bottle has lasted me since the summer. I still got a little less than half the bottle left. Love the pump, super easy to use. Nice scent, hydrating, non-greasy. I am not big on taking supplements but I've been taking collagen supplements off and on for a few years and every time I go for collagen supplements, I feel like I can tell the difference in my skin. My current favorite is this Ancient and Brave marine collagen, wild collagen. This is made with 100% marine collagen and the collagen source is Alaska Pollock. It's almost empty. I just order, comes with this virtual scoop. Every morning I mix a scoop of this in my coffee. This is tasteless, you won't taste anything if you mix in your drinks. That's another thing I really love about it. That's pretty much all I do for self-care for my body and mind and health for wellness. Hope you enjoyed this video and these items make a perfect gift this holiday season too. Check out the links down below. Thanks so much for watching. I'll see you in the next one.
