It’s that time of year again… The shops are filled with fluffy red hearts and stuffed animals. There are chocolates galore and over the top declarations of love adorn anything from cards to mugs to T-shirts. This over commercialized holiday might seem cheesy to most people but let’s face it… after everything we have been through in the past year, a frivolous and fun day that celebrates love may be exactly what we need.

While restrictions have been lifted, going to a fancy restaurant or a spa may be out of the question. The budget may also be a little tighter this year so instead of wasting money on overpriced flowers or gifts that will be pushed to the back of the cupboard, why not find a way to create a meaningful romantic experience at home with unique gifts that benefit both partners. Read on for a few thoughtful Valentine’s day ideas that your partner will love!

Have a spa day at home

Spending quality time together as a couple helps to strengthen your bond as a couple. Quality time is about mindfully spending time together to show how much you love and appreciate your partner. It means actively choosing to focus on your partner. What better way to do this then by creating an intimate spa experience for you and your partner at home. This is an affordable option that shows an extra effort and is sure to make your partner feel super loved.

Take a relaxing bath together

We can all agree that taking a nice long bath after a hard day, helps to completely relax you. Taking a bath with your partner can help to relieve pressure and stress. Bathing together helps you let down your defences and totally sink into each other. Adding a Prana bath bomb to this mix can help you to relax even further. Prana bath bombs come in four options; sleep, revive, love and plain. CBD bath bombs help to relax you and boost mental clarity. The bath bombs help to release tension in your body and help to restore and rejuvenate.

Try a sensual massage

Add a sensual massage to your spa experience. Giving your partner a massage is a great way to build intimacy. Physical touch helps to strengthen trust and bonding and makes you feel love and pampered from your partner. Skin-to-skin contact releases oxytocin, the love hormone. Prana natural massage oil is an excellent natural massage oil that will enhance sensation. Using CBD as a massage oil can help calm inflammation, soothe anxiety, reduce chronic pain, and melt tension away.

Try a pampering facial

And finally, try giving each other a relaxing at home facial. Take turns gently applying our Moringa and Fulvic Bentonite facial Mask. This mask is sure to be a real treat! The Moringa Fulvic Bentonite Facial Mask heals and regenerates skin tissue, drawing out toxins and effectively treating acne. It not only unclogs pores and makes them shrink, but also prevents blackheads and reduces the appearance of scars. It is an excellent exfoliator that effectively evens out skin tone.

Make time for intimacy

Once the romantic mood has been set, massages have been given and you and your partner are feeling relaxed and connected… it’s time to get intimate! Let’s be honest; a healthy sex life within a supportive relationship has numerous benefits. It can lower stress, increase happiness, and increase intimacy between partners. And of course, we want to sex to be as enjoyable as possible. Men, listen up… a 2013 study found that 9 out of 10 women felt that sex was more comfortable and more enjoyable when using lubrication. Why not introduce an all-natural lubricant like Nature’s Relief Silky smooth CBD lube into the bedroom. This lubricant is highly effective with extra moisturising, soothing, and cell replenishing properties. It can be used for an enhanced sexual experience as well as for protecting and repairing the vaginal canal. Lube also helps to improve blood flow for men, making everything flow beautifully! Not only this, but CBD in lube can help women who experience pain during sex. CBD can also heighten sensations, even more reason to try our CBD Lube!

Taking CBD internally can also help to relax you and make sex a soothing and enjoyable experience. Try taking a few drops of Nature’s Relief CBD calm together before enjoying some intimate time to set the right mood.
