True health and happiness begin and end with self care. Sitting down with a good book, relaxing in a hot bath, or actively working towards a tangible goal are all simple ways one can turn down the stresses of everyday life and enjoy the moment. To make taking care of oneself a little easier, we’ve found what we believe to be the 10 best subscription boxes for promoting self care.

Each month, Introverts Retreat subscribers receive a novel written by a female author, plus a few self-care gifts such as:
- grown-up coloring books
- high-end snacks
