Aromatherapy and Relaxation Activities Foster a Calm Environment
On 10th September, Flowers Manor Care Home celebrated Mental Wellbeing Day, reminding residents of the importance of mental health in a nurturing environment. This special day emphasised the vital role of wellbeing, particularly in care homes where residents may experience shifts in their daily rhythms.
The day commenced with a serene atmosphere as residents delighted in a host of relaxing activities. Aromatherapy oils filled the room with soothing scents, promoting tranquillity and a sense of calm among participants. In addition to this, residents pampered themselves with rejuvenating face masks, engaging in self-care practices that can significantly enhance mental wellbeing.
By participating in these relaxing sessions, residents not only enjoyed the physical benefits of aromatherapy and skincare but also fostered social connections with their peers. These interactions can help combat feelings of loneliness, cultivate friendships, and uplift spirits in the warm environment of Flowers Manor.
Mental Wellbeing Day served as a poignant reminder that taking time for oneself is paramount, especially within care homes where daily routines can sometimes overshadow the need for personal reflection and relaxation. Such initiatives play a key role in maintaining the overall mental and emotional health of residents, ensuring that their stay at Flowers Manor is as enriching and fulfilling as possible.
