Sunday Reset: The Art of Doing Nothing

Sunday Reset: The Art of Doing Nothing

The best plans are no plans at all. A “lazy” day inside is not a lapse in productivity, it is a chance to indulge in some much deserved rest and self-care! There is a simple joy in a quiet day in: no errands, no emails, no to-do list. Slip on your softest matching set, light your favorite candle and unwind today.

Show Some Love to Your Skin

Firstly, sleep in as much as you can today. Not only have you earned it, but remind yourself that it's called beauty sleep for a reason. An extra hour or two on Sunday morning is an investment into your skin and well-being!

Once up, it’s time for your morning skincare. Your skincare routine is not simply a task to be completed, it is a grounding and calming ritual that prioritizes self care. On a lazy day, focus on your routine’s foundational products, with an extra focus on hydration. With these historic cold temperatures, moisture is a necessity. 

Apply a thin layer of the Danucera Cerabalm on top of your moisturizer to cocoon your skin and provide an all day, luminous glow, while also targeting signs of aging and inflammation. Low effort, but high impact.

Don’t forget the body! Bader’s newest release, The Geranium Rose Body Cream, hydrates and firms, and leaves a delicate olfactive veil of geranium and rose. Top it with a luxe body oil if you're feeling especially indulgent!

Upgrade the Ordinary

Since there’s nothing on the agenda today, use that as an opportunity to indulge and elevate!

Today, you’re not just making your morning latte and omelette. You are taking out the quality bone china, infusing your milk with a splash of vanilla extract, and trying your hand at perfecting Jacques Pépin’s famous omelette recipe.

It is also imperative today that you are not cooking dinner. You are ordering out from your favorite restaurant. The exception? Bake an elevated sweet treat to enjoy after dinner (or before!) These brown butter chai latte dark chocolate chip cookies fit the bill!


Curate Your Comfort

Comfort is the word of the day. Whether it's your favorite cashmere piece from White and Warren, or a comfortable robe, it’s important to be cozy and warm today. Set up your surroundings so that they exude relaxation. Light your favorite candle and put on your favorite playlist, or use this time to get utterly absorbed in a book or a movie. It’s a rare treat to get unadulterated “me time”- savor it. 

We suggest:

  • The Criterion Channel: If you never know what to watch, The Criterion Channel collects the most accomplished films produced worldwide. Whatever the genre, you’re guaranteed to find a gem here. 

  • Piranesi by Susanna Clarke: A labyrinthine mystery novel. Nothing is quite as it seems in this book, making it incredibly engrossing and the perfect way to spend an afternoon.

Let Yourself Be Unavailable

There is nothing wrong with the occasional lazy day. This not only allows for physical rest, but perhaps more importantly, mental rest. With all of life’s distractions, be sure to do the best you can to tune it out.  Today, you have permission to turn off your notifications, to not answer any work emails, and ignore your to-do list. It will be there on Monday. 

See you next Sunday!
