Put down the laptop + espresso — it’s officially time for a day of self-care in Raleigh. We’ve built local guides to self-care in three different flavors, so you can find the massage, yoga, and adaptogen latte adventure that best suits you.
👑 For the treat yo’self
queen:
- Channel your best skin with a Citrine Skin + Lash Spa facial — try microdermabrasion, oxygen, or the Citrine signature facial.
- Let Sukho Thai Massage compress your troubles away. The Thai-style massages result in better sleep + reduced emotional tension.
- Enjoy professional makeup , a polished manicure , or a blowout .
🛀 For self-care that doesn’t break the bank
:
- What simple activity is proven to lower cortisol ? Petting a furry friend. Take a trip to Winterpast Farm , an animal rescue right outside Raleigh where you can snuggle with baby goats, bunnies + guinea pigs for $10 cash.
- Get your meditation on with a virtual class, like Soul Dimension’s weekly free class on Wednesday afternoons.
- Let nature improve your well-being with a walk through one of Raleigh’s green or flowering parks, like the The Raleigh Rose Garden , the WRAL-TV Azalea Garden , or Dorothea Dix Park , all free + open to the public.
🔮 For LA-style wellness
