Random Acts of Kindness – Treat yourself
Random Acts of Kindness Day falls on February 17th, a perfect reminder to spread kindness to others. Not only does it brighten their day, but it also makes you feel great too!
Why not take the opportunity to treat yourself or plan something special with a friend? Whether it’s a shopping spree, a spa day, or a nature adventure, set aside time to do something you truly enjoy. After all, how often do we take a moment just for ourselves?
1. Pamper Day
A fantastic way to indulge in some self-care is by booking a pamper day at Navara Beauty. They offer a wide range of treatments, including nails, eyebrows, waxing, and more helping you feel refreshed and rejuvenated. Treat yourself to that girl therapy, and get your dream set of nails that has been saved on your Pinterest board for months.
And for the ultimate finishing touch, why not book a luxurious blow-dry at TONI&GUY? Whether you’re after sleek and smooth or bouncy and voluminous, their expert stylists will leave your hair looking fabulous, ready for whatever the day brings!
2. Retail Therapy
Retail therapy is the perfect way to indulge yourself, offering a unique mix of enjoyment, relaxation, and excitement. Shopping provides a break from daily pressures, allowing you to focus on yourself for a change—after all, you’re usually the one treating everyone else!
Whether you're on the hunt for a new pair of gym trainers, cosy pyjamas, or that book you've been eager to dive into, now’s the time to treat yourself.
At Midsummer Place, we have a wide variety of stores. See all our stores here.
3. Coffee shop and a good book
A coffee shop is the perfect tranquil escape in between errands, whether you're on the school run or taking a break before the food shop. A warm cup of coffee (and maybe a slice of carrot cake), the soothing aroma, and a comfortable seat create the ideal moment to slow down and recharge.
How often do you truly get the chance to lose yourself in a good book at home? With all the hustle and bustle of everyday life, distractions are everywhere. But in a coffee shop, it's just you, your favourite drink, and the perfect opportunity to unwind with a great read offering both mental stimulation and relaxation.
4. Yummy food
Food is one of the best ways to indulge in your favourite cravings, making it the perfect treat for a pamper day. Whether you’re starting the morning with a bacon bap from Starbucks or a yogurt and granola pot from Pret, every bite adds to the experience. Then, for lunch, why not head to WingStop, Five Guys, Kokoro, Leon or one of our independent food pods. Taking time to savour your favourite meals not only satisfies cravings but also enhances the feeling of self-care and indulgence. After all, a pamper day is all about treating yourself, so why not do it with food that makes you feel happy and truly spoiled?

Why not make it a monthly meet-up? After all, treating yourself shouldn't be a once-a-year thing! From great food to friendly competition, it’s the perfect way to unwind, have fun, and make self-care a regular part of your routine.
Random Acts of Kindness Day on February 17th is the perfect reminder to spread kindness, not just to others, but to yourself too! Taking time for self-care can leave you feeling refreshed, recharged, and ready to tackle anything.
