JustBe in the Moment: Celebrating National Relaxation Day

National Relaxation Day: Your Invitation to Slow Down & JustBe

On National Relaxation Day (15th August), we’re reminded of the importance of slowing down, switching off, and truly being, even if only for a few precious minutes. In a world that celebrates being busy, relaxation is essential for our well-being and not a luxury.

At JustBe Botanicals, we believe in creating everyday rituals that help you feel grounded, and cared for. Whether it's a few minutes between commitments or fifty, our 5-Step Relaxation Ritual will help you create moments of calm and connection.


Your 5-Step Relaxation Ritual

Lift your mood with scent - whether rolling a JustBe aroma rollerball onto your pulse points, spritzing your face during the warmer weather with an Uplifting toner or adding a few drops of Inspired burning oil when your doing the cleaning the natural fragrance will reset your mood and help you feel grounded.

2. Indulge Your Skin
Our luxurious Body Butters melt into the skin, locking in moisture while surrounding you with gentle fragrance. This not only leaves skin silky-soft but also encourages lymphatic flow and relaxation. It’s self-care you can feel instantly.

3. Sip a soothing herbal tea
Take time to enjoy a cup of JustBe Happy Herbal Tea. Let the delicate botanicals work their magic from the inside out, calming the mind and uplifting the spirit.

4. Savour Something Sweet
Our aromatherapy artisan chocolates are crafted not just for taste, but for mood. From calming lavender and raspberry to invigorating pink grapefruit and zesty lime, each bar is an edible moment of joy.

5. Just Be
