Self-Care Sundays

Self-care is not a dirty word. In fact, during the chaos of school holidays, it feels more like a necessity than a luxury. Between kids at home, calendars full, and the constant hum of daily life, we’ve been leaning into little rituals that remind us to fill our own cups, too.

This week, we asked the Styleware team: what does self-care look like for you? The answers weren’t about bubble baths (though we’d never say no). Instead, they were simple, intentional moments that make us feel more grounded - the kind we can turn to on a Sunday, or any day, to reset. Read on to see how our team does their self-care moments.

With four kids at home (hello, school holidays), self-care isn’t something I can afford to push aside – it’s what helps me show up as the best mum and boss I can be. For me, that looks like sneaking in morning exercise before the kids wake up, cooking on the weekends, and making our Sunday family dinners a ritual where we’re all present (and the kids get to pitch in). I’ll admit there’s a bit of interiors scrolling in the mix too — my guilty pleasure and a source of inspiration. And at the end of the day, a nightly hot chocolate with collagen is my little moment of calm that also keeps my skin glowing from the inside out.

For me, winding down on the weekend is just as important as prepping for the week ahead. Luckily, the things that fill my cup also set me up for the days to come. Pilates, slow morning coffees and long walks, a trip to the farmers’ market for fruit, veggies (and always fresh florals), resetting the house, cooking, and carving out time to truly relax - that’s my version of a perfect weekend.

I love my daily walks to clear my head and reset at lunchtime, and finishing the day by the ocean to watch the sunset always brings perspective and a sense of calm. At home, scent is my anchor - candles lit or a spritz of my favourite perfume instantly lift my mood and shift the energy.

Our daily moments never go by without Styleware- whether it's snacking on the go, daily lunches or serving it up for the family- here's our favourites.
