When thinking of self-care, sensorial images of face masks, hair care and yoga sessions likely come to mind faster than toothpaste and brushing your teeth. But while this seemingly daily task can seem easy to neglect, it can actually play a role in your mind and body wellness.

Here are some easy ways to make your oral health routine feel like a relaxing and mindful wellness ritual, and less like a trip to the dentist.

2 Mindful Moments

• Think of brushing as a 2-minute way to reconnect with yourself at the beginning and end of each day. Using a soft-bristle brush, take small, circular motions and pay careful attention to each sensation as you both clean and stimulate your teeth and gums. Focus on the clean feelings of the foam, flavor and texture of your toothpaste.

Fresh, Bright Smiles without Compromise

• You don’t have to sacrifice your clean in order to feel good about the ingredients you put in your mouth twice a day. Try switching your toothpaste to a botanical formula that’s free from fluoride, triclosan, SLS or gluten. Himalaya Whitening Complete Care toothpaste delivers the same foamy fresh experience by harnessing the powers of real, familiar ingredients like neem, pomegranate, pineapple, and papaya enzymes to promote cleaner, fresher and brighter smiles.

Gift Yourself a Massage

• Hate flossing? Think of it as a mini massage for your gums. Use a slow, gentle motion to navigate between your teeth, and extend it to your gums. And rinse your mouth afterwards to flush any bacteria and debris that became loosened.

Pamper Yourself

• Take this moment to create an experience that serves you. Use scented candles or essential oils in conjunction with your oral care routine. Relax with soothing soundscapes, mindful minute meditations, or turn up the volume on your favorite podcast or playlist for a fun release to the day.
