As a busy mom of three, I know how hard it can be to find time for self-care. But it's so important to make time for yourself, even if it's just for a little bit. A cozy self-care night is a great way to relax and recharge after a long day. I've learned that even if I can only spare 15 minutes for self-care, it's better than nothing. Sometimes, the best way to relax is to do something creative, like painting, writing, or playing music. If I'm feeling really stressed, I'll take a long walk-in nature or do some yoga. The most important thing is to find what works for you and to make self-care a priority.

Here are some ideas for a cozy self-care night:

• Take a warm bath or shower with essential oils.
• Light some candles and listen to calming music.
• Read a book or magazine.
• Do a face mask or body scrub.
• Get a massage (even if it's just a self-massage).
• Watch a funny movie or TV show.
• Write in a journal or do some other creative activity.
• Drink a cup of tea or hot chocolate.
• Eat something delicious and healthy.
