Today's Wellness Product Highlight #5 - Throw Blanket, Lip Balm, Puzzle Book, Journal, and a Pen.
These items provide comfort in a different way ... the kind that supports the heart, mind, and body during long treatment days.
When I began chemotherapy, my daughters gave me a cozy blanket, and it became something I relied on every time I went in for treatment. Infusion rooms need to be cold, but having a soft, comfortable blanket to wrap around myself made those hours a little more bearable.
Alongside the blanket, we include simple items that offer gentle moments of relief.
One of my favorites is an unflavored lip balm from Brayer Ridge Soap made right in Newport, Maine. My lips get so dry, so I keep one in my purse, one by my bedside table, and one in the kitchen.
The wonderful owner even donated a portion of our order in support of Healing Voices, kindness that means so much.
Next, we include a puzzle book in each bag as a gentle distraction, and a journal and pen to offer a place to breathe, reflect, or simply pass the time.
Comfort comes in many forms. These small items can make long treatment days a little gentler. We hope these pieces bring warmth and ease to someone who needs it. π
