L'Occitane is one of my favourite brands, so much so I go through refill pouches of the Almond Shower Oil and I always look forward to the Christmas offerings. When it comes to Advent Calendars, L'Occitane once again has two offerings depending on your budget and today I am sharing the Classic Beauty Advent Calendar which retails at just £49.

For the past few years, I have been lucky enough to feature the L’Occitane advent calendar here on my blog (here is the 2018 version) and they are such a brilliant way to stock up on your favourites, discover new products and never worry about having to buy products for your travel case again.  Whenever I go away for a few days, L'Occitane is very much the brand that features most heavily within my stash.
L’OCCITANE’s much-loved Classic Beauty Advent Calendar is back for 2019. This Christmas, our Classic Beauty Advent Calendar takes the form of a book, telling one of our true stories about the almond tree. Did you know? In the 1950’s, almond trees completely disappeared from the Provence landscape.

The Classic Beauty Advent Calendar from L'Occitane has contents worth £79 and it really does give you the chance to try what L'Occitane has to offer. Again the cute design opens out like a book and it features 24 doors to open.

I am a huge fan of L'Occitane Hand Creams and I love the options available within the Calendar as well as the addition of the Almond Shower Gel being included in a really good travel-sized option.

You can find every Advent Calendar available for 2019 right here all under one blog post.  I would love to know if you have found any favourites.

Positive Reasons For Listening To Music While Working Out

We all know that getting regular exercise is good for us. However, many of us lack motivation and don’t enjoy it. The key is to not only find something that you know you’re going to enjoy but also find ways of making it less of a chore, that way you are more likely to stick at it and be well on your way to a healthy lifestyle. One of the ways you can do this is to include music into your work out routine.

Listening to music while exercising not only helps to distract us from the effort we are putting in it also helps to keep us focused, putting the right amount of effort and motivates us to push harder so ultimately getting better results, get healthier and stick to it for longer. 

Below are some of the positive reasons you should be listening to music while working out: 

Helps To Set A Pace 
Setting a pace and sticking to it can be difficult when you’re exercising. Whether you’re just beginning or a person who exercises regularly it still important to remember to not only set a pace that is realistic but also going to achieve the goals that you're aiming for. Using music as your main tool for keeping and setting your pace is a positive way to keep you driven and focused and not be worrying about falling behind or and not keeping to the pace that you need to. Whether you're training for a marathon or are exercising to get fitter, often your pace is the factor that gets you where you need to be. It’s a good idea to learn how to use iCloud music library and get set up with all your favorite music. 

Helps To Lift Your Mood
Sometimes, though no fault of our own, we get disheartened and stop finding exercise enjoyable. It can be really difficult to lift your mood when it comes to doing something that we think we’re not going to enjoy. Music is a brilliant way of lifting your mood when you’re completing your routine. You could even listen to music on the way to the gym or whilst you’re getting changed, that way you may find that your mood has lifted before you even start. 

Helps To Distract You
Listening to music while you workout is a proven way to distract you. It’s not meant to distract you from what you are doing but more work as a distraction to the level of exertion that you’re feeling. Often people who listen to music when they exercise are able to exercise for longer and put more effort in naturally. This is because they’re working to the beat and rhythm of the music and concentrate on this rather than how tired they may be feeling. It’s important to not overdo it though, make sure you get a good mix. It’s not meant to distract you to the point overexertion. 

Hopefully, these three reasons for using music positively with exercise will help you with your next workout, do you have any other ways of helping your exercise routine? Please share them in the comments section below.
