If you are a Mother, you understand the importance of a night home alone! No kids, No hubby, Just you and relaxation! Here is how to have a perfect evening!

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Candles
  • Bubble Bath
  • Chocolate
  • Wine
  • Book or Magazine
  • Music/Ipod
  • Whatever Makes You Relax!
  1. Step 1

    The first and most important thing is to figure out a way to get a evening home alone! This is hard for Mothers (believe me I know!). When that evening finally comes around let yourself and your mind relax! Don't let yourself think about the laundry that is sitting there, don't pick up toys, don't worry about how the kids are without you. Just focus on YOU and your inner feelings and let yourself go. (make sure you turn off your phones, no computer, no TV) The first thing I enjoy is having a favorite snack and a glass of wine. Buy yourself the best of the best of your favorite drink and food! Indulge in your luxury! You deserve it!

  2. Step 2

    The second thing that is important is a relaxing bubble bath in the dark! Pour your favorite Bubble Bath into hot running water and let your tub fill up with bubble bliss! Turn off your bathroom lights and get your favorite candles lit! Let the candles fill your bathroom with a relaxing glow and slip into your tub! Relax. Close your eyes, think of yourself at your favorite place on earth and let yourself go there! Open your eyes and look at your skin glowing in the candle light. You are beautiful! Let the bubbles dance on your legs and just enjoy, maybe laugh out loud, sing to yourself, grab the shampoo bottle and become a Diva! Whatever you enjoy..do it!

  3. Step 3

    When you get finished in your bath, get yourself into your favorite clothing. Maybe its a sexy nightgown, or a cotton jumpsuit..Whatever, just enjoy it. Now its time to turn on your favorite music! Disco? Soothing Jazz? Pop? It does not have to be sleepy music, it has to be the music you love and enjoy! (maybe let the Diva in you continue and dance and sing along!) Dont want any music? Then grab a Book or Magazine! Steamy Sexy books are great! Let yourself become the leading lady and put yourself into the book! Maybe get a little more wine or some hot tea? Let your body relax, put your feet up! Maybe for you, its time for a nap!

Tips & Warnings
  • The most important thing to remember about your night alone, is to make it YOUR night. Let yourself enjoy the things you enjoy doing. Many moms don't allow themselves the little luxury's they used to before marriage and kids. You deserve it! You don't have to go extreme and have expensive spa treatments or spend a lot of money, all you have to do is just remember the YOU before all the Mommy stuff! Being a Mother is rewarding and wonderful, but, you still are you deep inside. Your night is for you, so decide how you are going to enjoy it and let yourself do it! These are just some suggestions for you to get a start. You might enjoy sewing, swimming, crafts or other things..just listen to you!
  • Please always use caution when burning candles! Never let them burn alone!
