Wellness and self-care have become more than just buzzwords people throw around as now more than ever it’s critical to actually focus on implementing them into one’s daily life. With the global pandemic, working from home, jobs lost, normalcy gone, etc., life has become more than stressful for many. To ease the burden and to comfort the mind, doing even small things like meditating can have a big impact. In addition to launching a Wellness section in the Design Milk Shop, we amped up posts on the topic this year and now we’re revisiting the top 5 wellness posts from 2020.
5. Crave Allows You to Personalize Your Pleasure
Rather than blush in shame or embarrassment, we can choose to be uninhibited by our desires, make these conversations a norm, and own our pleasure proudly instead. That’s what Crave wants to do and their latest launch, the Crave Duet Pro coupled with a unique, hands-on Build-A-Vibe experience, can help you do just that.
4. How To Design a Home with Your Health, Fitness + Happiness in Mind
Finding the perfect antique dresser or just the right shade of white paint can be important but style and aesthetics alone won’t bring happiness into your home. Instead, it’ll be the behind-the-scenes elements that really matter, like the flow of a room, organization and storage, optimal lighting and incorporating smart technology. Thankfully a new book came to town that addresses all the above and more. Written by author Jamie Gold, a professional kitchen and bath designer and Mayo Clinic-certified wellness coach, Wellness By Design: A Room-By-Room Guide To Optimizing Your Home For Health, Fitness and Happiness will help you change how you feel in and about your home with functional, implementable tips that go beyond aesthetics.
3. Bettering Your Health: 5 Small, Pill-Sized Ways to Do Just That
Taking care of ourselves is a huge priority right now due to COVID-19, and while there are so many basic actions you can take (washing your hands being the most basic!), the most simple step takes even less than 20 seconds: taking your vitamins. We rounded up five companies that are challenging legacy brands in bettering your health in small (pill-sized, to be exact) ways that make a difference.
2. Train Your Brain To Improve Your Mental Health with Core Meditation
Meditation is a proven way to help mental well-being, but sometimes it can be hard to stick to a routine or dedicate to the practice if there’s no one to hold us accountable. If you’re nodding your head in agreement, Core might appeal to you. Like training any muscle in your body to improve your physical health, Core helps you train your brain like a muscle to improve your mental health.
And the most popular wellness post of 2020 is…
1. Closing the Pleasure Gap: How Dame Is Taking Care of Your Sexual Wellness
When it comes to self-care, sexual wellness is not often brought up. Yes, it’s more of a topic reserved for the most inner-circle of friends who can brush past your initial blush of embarrassment from such an intimate subject. Even so, topics like sex toys, orgasms, and taking care of our inner needs still have an uncomfortable stigma surrounding them, despite the fact that sexual wellness does play an important role in our overall health and happiness. Enter Dame, a Kickstarter-originated brand that’s creating vibrators, lubricants, pillows, and more, all aimed to help you reach satisfaction while feeling empowered instead of timid or embarrassed. Created for all ages, genders, ethnicities, backgrounds, and lifestyles, Dame products are thoughtfully and beautifully designed, nothing like the egregious sex toys you might be thinking of.
