When was the last time you gave your hands a treat? Honestly? They do, after all, feed you, care for you, wash you, scroll through TikTok for you. They deserve 20 minutes off to rest and recharge like all of us. Surely your hibernation can grant them that.

A good old peeling foot mask is exactly what hibernation calls for. It works both ways really; you have the time to treat your feet, and you’ll also have no plans so no one will see the aftermath of a peeling foot mask. An activity best done alone.

You probably already had this on your list of your hibernation activities, but a just a gentle reminder! Masturbation isn’t only a great activity to pass the time, but it’s also proven to reduce stress, release tension, enhance sleep, and boost self-confidence. Especially helpful in the gloomy winter months.
