set the vibe
Mood lighting- grab your candles, light those and compliment with some warm toned lamps. We love a salt lamp for a cosy, warm glow.

create a cute space
In the style of a ‘nook’ shaped seat- think of blankets, cushions, comfort but condensed into a chair, the corner of a sofa or even a dedicated window seat (the ultimate goal). Chunky knit gives you extra cosy points here.

treat your tastebuds
Get your favourite warming drink in- teas, decaf coffee with a syrup, maybe a hot chocolate or a hot squash (if you haven’t tried it, give it a go!). Grab a special mug to make it all the more indulgent.

feast of comfort
Warming meals are the way forward- soups, chilli, stews- hearty, filling and plenty of leftovers- the best kind of thing for a cosy January evening.

layers of luxe for you
Layer up however you feel best- this could be cosy jumpers, or it could be your softest dressing gown, slippers or fluffy socks.

surround yourself in soothing scents
Essential oils are queen when it comes to comfort and cosiness. Look into diffusers, oils, or our scented candle range which harnesses the natural wellbeing traits of 100% essential oil blends. (We suggest giving spicy, warming Noor scent a go for the ultimate comforting scent).

do something relaxing
Read a book, start a puzzle, try something like crocheting, knitting, or even just do some doodling. Something creative that you enjoy with zero pressure to get it finished, just time to enjoy the motion, and give your brain some R&R time.

embrace the cold
Wrapping up warm and braving the chill for a short brisk walk can make returning home even more cosy. That and you get all the benefits of a boost of feel good hormones- perfection!

connection is key!
Get friends, loved ones or family involved- invite your nearest and dearest to enjoy a cosy evening in with you- bake together, bring a board or treats, or plan to craft or create together. Bonus cosiness if you switch your phone off for the evening for a digital detox!

set yourself up for success
Prepare everything you can for tomorrow morning- think about waking up having your clothes already chosen, your coffee prepped, your lunch packed in the fridge and bag by the door ready to go. The ease of your morning the following day will be worth the preparation, and doing so in the evening allows you to wind down, mentally slow down and enjoy looking after your future self- they’ll thank you!
