The Summer of Self Care
With summer comes longer, warmer days and new ways to practice self-care. Being able to spend more time outdoors and breathe in the fresh summer air will renew you!
A lot of these date ideas will help you get outside and make the most of the summer. Think stargazing, farmer’s markets or reading a book outside at your favourite cafe. We also want to encourage you to put your phone away and be present with yourself and whoever you are going on these dates with. Simply putting your phone away is a great form of self-care.
Let’s embrace the magic and beauty of summer.
First thing’s first. Think, how do you want your summer to look?
Are you craving adventure? Calm energy? Solo dates or time spent with lots of friends? Paint a picture of how you want your summer to unfold, set some visions and goals for yourself. Then, you can take a realistic look at our summer date ideas and decide which one’s could work for you! Your goals don’t need to look like anyone else’s, picture yourself living your best summer life, and go after it!
