Your Self Care Tonic Menu ✨
Week 17: April 21 – 27
Welcome to a brand new week, beautiful 🤍
This week’s self care menu is light, dreamy, and deeply grounding. It’s a gentle invitation to pause, reset your space, honour your body, and align with the version of you you're becoming.
Each ritual is short and sweet (just 5 minutes!), proving that sometimes the smallest shifts have the biggest ripple effect.
Choose up to 5 tonics and let them support your energy, mood, and nervous system throughout the week.
💧 Post-Shower Body Oil Ritual – 5 mins
Seal in hydration and lock in softness with this dreamy self-touch ritual.
How to:
After your shower, pat your body dry gently with a towel (leave skin slightly damp).
Apply a nourishing body oil in long, slow strokes.
Try sweet almond, jojoba, or sesame oil.
Add 2 drops of essential oil to your palm and mix with your body oil for an elevated vibe:
AM: Use citrus, rosemary or peppermint for energising effect.
PM: Choose lavender, chamomile or frankincense for relaxation.
Let it absorb while you breathe deeply or play calming music.
📓 “Future You” Letter or Voice Note – 5 mins
Connect with your highest self and give her a message from your heart.
How to:
Set a 5-minute timer.
Either write a letter in your journal or record a voice note on your phone.
Speak as if you’re already living the life you’re calling in.
Start with: “Hi beautiful, I’m so proud of you for…”
You’ll be surprised how powerful and grounding this little practice can be.
🍵 Lymphatic Support Tea – 5 mins
Support your body’s natural detox systems in a calm, holistic way.
How to:
Steep one of the following herbs in hot water for 5+ minutes:
Dandelion root
Nettle
Ginger
Burdock
Sip slowly and mindfully, ideally without distractions.
This is beautiful in the morning or after movement to support digestion, de-puffing, and overall flow.
🧘♀️ Hip-Opening Stretch Sequence – 5 mins
Release emotional tension and feel grounded through the hips and pelvis.
How to:
Roll out your mat or stretch on the floor.
Move gently through:
Butterfly pose
Seated figure-4 stretch
Reclined twist
Hold each position for around 1–2 minutes with deep breaths.
Finish in child’s pose and set an intention for grounded softness.
🖼 Curate Your Home Screen Aesthetic – 5 mins
Your digital space is part of your energy field — let it inspire, not drain you.
How to:
Update your phone’s wallpaper or lock screen with an image that reflects who you're becoming — vintage glamour, minimal elegance, or soft femininity.
You can also rearrange your apps to reduce clutter and improve focus.
Add a calming affirmation or quote as your widget if your phone allows.
Let your tech feel like a supportive space, not a source of chaos.
🌷 These micro-rituals may only take 5 minutes, but their impact is anything but small.
Allow them to become little moments of peace, intention, and elevation in your week.
Enjoy,
Jacinta xoxo
