Morning
 

What use is a day off if not to hit reset? Begin your day by calming your mind so you can tune out and simply enjoy each moment. Fav recommends incorporating CBD extract into your morning beverage, as it is hailed as a multipurpose elixir of well-being. Add a droplet of Kama CBD tincture to an all-natural breakfast smoothie or by chewing on a sweet yet subtly tart Kama CBD “Fruitblast” gummy.

Brunch
 

Add an inviting scent to help elevate the ambience and create a homely backdrop for your pamper sesh. Recreate some tropical vibes by spritzing mint mojito room & linen spray from The Blomstre. You can also go the complete opposite route for a wintry theme and capture the feel of a cosy ski cabin by lighting up the apple maple & bourbon candle, also from The Blomstre. Your home is your oyster.

Daytime
 

Go for massages that target areas of your body that regulate your internal systems, which are great at improving the movement of your blood flow. Fav highlights this detoxifying traditional Thai-style massage by NutriSlim Thai Spa, which tends to your lymphatic network as well as your gut—key players in regulating your anatomy.

You can also consider making some time for active recovery beforehand. Light exercises can improve your internal circulation and prime your muscles to loosen and stretch before being massaged. Slip into a pair of swimming trunks from Mazu to enjoy a casual dip in the pool to warm up your limbs, without bringing excess pressure to your joints.

Evening
 

Occupying the cross-section where hearty comfort food and nutrition meet, a wholesome home-cooked meal is just the thing to soothe your soul and hungry belly. To make a robust roast paired with a fragrant glass of wine, set your oven to pre-heat (at a temperature between 180 or 200 degrees Celsius, fan-forced). Prep some chicken in a heat-proof roasting pan by frying it over medium-high heat in extra virgin olive oil. After that, marinate it in a lightly warmed-up mixture of Rewarewa honey from Tahi Honey and apple cider vinegar, which will help to kick in an extra twinge of tanginess and malty lusciousness.

Produced by Tahi Honey and available on Fav, this little jar of goodness is as impactful to your antioxidant production as it is to the ecosystem. Continue to bake the chicken for another 30 minutes until it is fully cooked, taking it out in-between to baste with juices from the pan. To keep it simple, round it all off with a glass of oaky chardonnay or a pinot noir to go with your plate. If you find yourself feening for something sweet, drizzle a little bit of Manuka honey over some fresh fruit as a decadent dessert.

Nighttime
 

A tailored skincare routine should be an unmissable step in your nightly rituals. Fav notes that beauty rest tends to be most effective at night, as there are fewer environmental stressors that can permeate and irritate your skin, making it the perfect time to deeply absorb nutriments.

Basic steps that should be practised by all include cleansing, toning, targeted treatments, moisturiser, an eye cream, and a mask—in that order. To ramp up blood flow, finish your night off by massaging your lubricated face lightly with a healing rose quartz facial roller.

Regardless of your skin type and qualities, reaching for chemical-free solutions is the way to go. You can customise your routine with Simplicité, from soothing pesky pimples with the rosemary blemish gel or giving your skin some extra collagen support with the Results Lift gel.
