I’m writing this on Friday, after another long hard week. I’m already beginning to think of my weekend plans, and how I can treat myself. The weekend is the perfect chance to unwind, and indulge in those little pleasures. Guilt-free.
Whatever you love to do, make time for yourself at the weekend. You spend all week working for other people; it’s time to give yourself a break. Whether you’re spending it alone or surrounded with friends, treat yourself to the things you love. Need some inspiration? Here are some simple ideas.
Go to a concert. When was the last time you actually went to a gig? It was probably longer than you think. We all love the thrill of live music, and the excitement of seeing your favourite band. So, book yourself some cheap concert tickets online, and go this weekend. If none of the big acts are touring through town, take a chance on the local music scene. Find a jazz night in town, and take some friends. You’ll be surprised at how much fantastic music there is out there.
Spa day. Is there anything more relaxing than a day at the spa? I don’t think so. Book yourself in for a long massage and a couple of your favourite treatments. Take a few friends, and treat yourself to lunch while you’re there. The relaxing atmosphere is bound to take you far away from the worries of work and daily life. Give yourself time to think, and drift away. If you’re feeling a little short on cash, make your own alternative at home. Buy a few home skin treatments, and invite your friends around.
Movie weekend. Do you ever have those weekends where you want to curl up and hide from the world? Yep, me too – most weekends! Why not renew your Netflix membership, and line up some of your favourite movies? Better yet, try a day full of new films. You can stock up on snacks, and order your favourite takeaways to keep you busy. Don’t come out of hiding until you’ve watched them all!
Go shopping. There’s a reason they call it retail therapy. It’s simple, buying things makes us happy! Use this weekend to treat yourself to some new clothes or shoes. Start small, and indulge in a new book. Meet your friends for coffee while you’re out, and take the whole day. You’ll come home with bags full of treats and a smile on your face.
Go out with friends. When was the last time you had a night out with your friends? Why not throw caution to the wind, and hit the town? Have that burger you have been craving and reminisce about old stories, and just catch up.
I hope that gives you a few easy ideas for treating yourself this weekend. Go all out, and indulge yourself, guilt free!
