My daily list of things for me to do is always at least 10 bullet points. I still like to use my pen and paper to make them every night before bed. Once I have completed my list of things or most of the things on my list, I have so much satisfaction to unwind. I feel more motivated for the next day and the euphoric feeling of my body hitting my bed makes me say, “whew…thank you Jesus!” every single time. It’s pure bedgasm. What’s that?
I have to admit that sometimes I use a few other helpful things to help me to relax at the end of a long day and to feel rejuvenated for the next day. Here are my helpful items and I hope that you will take care of yourself and try a few!
Arealer Foot Massager Machine

Oh my goodness this foot massager feels so amazing on tired feet. It actually feels like a person is taking their time to give you one of the best foot massages of your life. I rarely use the heat option, but it’s so nice that it’s an option.
Flannel Fleece Velvet Plush Throw Blanket
You can sit on the sofa and enjoy your favorite movies without a soft and cozy blanket. This is one of my favorites and if your kids like to hog the blanket like mine do go ahead and get another for them. Sharing snuggles is also very sweet as well.
Ultra Soft Sleep Earphones
Not all earphones are created equally. I like to use my regular earphones for listening to podcasts, my workout music, or talking on the phone, but regular earphones don’t provide the same comfort when you are trying to sleep and listen to relaxing music. Some nights I may play this soothing sleep music on my bedroom television and other nights I want the sound, but not the added light. These earphones help me listen to this channel on Youtube.
Cooling Memory Foam Pillow
I’ve always been a person that gets super hot in my sleep. I have to sleep with a fan on all year round. My mom gifted me a cool pillow for myself and let me just say that it is a game changer for a good nights rest. It also helps my head to stay cool under my satin scarf or bonnet.
Small Portable Table Fan
Some Winter nights my husband complains that he is cold because I have to have my ceiling fan on while sleeping. My portable side fan comes in handy for me.
Sleep and rest are the most beneficial things that you can have in your life after a relationship with Jesus. It gives you the peace that you need after a long day and it helps to recharge you for your best days ahead. Don’t neglect your rest. It’s self-love and self-care.

Self-care at the end of the day is so important for moms! I never would have thought of the fan. Great idea!

A foot massager sounds lovely! I don’t use headphones as we have a speaker, so I just play my music on that.
