Valentine's Day has become something of a celebration of love and appreciation, and we think that's fantastic – especially if we emphasize ALL hearts and thus include more than just a potential romantic partner. As Doris sang in her hit song "Did you give the world some love today, babe?" in the 70s:
"Everybody in this world, has to do a whole lot more, than to love the one they spend a lifetime looking for."
We all have people in our lives that we wish to remember to appreciate. Maybe you have a parent, a sibling, a child, a beloved friend or partner that you want to acknowledge? Here we've brainstormed about what we would like to give (and receive!) as a surprise to someone who means a lot to us.
1. Call/text someone you miss and tell them something you appreciate about them
2. Show appreciation with a secret note in their jacket pocket or a post-it on the bathroom mirror
3. Write a poem and read it aloud
4. Take a walk together
5. Treat them to coffee and chat about life
6. Go to a spa or create a home spa
Go to their favorite spa or stock up with bath salts, face masks, essential oils and other natural products from our body care range.
7. Massage with lit candles
Put on their favorite music and stock up with natural massage oil. Getting a full-body massage is very relaxing and appreciated.
8. Cook and treat them to something extra delicious
9. Play a fun game together
10. Give flowers and chocolate
Sticking to traditions and giving some flowers and chocolate never goes wrong.
