How I Use Spritz Wellness Every Day, Morning to Night

By Laura Colucci, Yoga Teacher & Founder of Spritz Wellness

I didn't create Spritz Wellness to sell products. I created it because I couldn't find what I needed.

As a yoga teacher living between London and the West Sussex coast, I was already building a life around intentional movement, natural ingredients, and the kind of small daily rituals that genuinely shift how you feel. I wanted a yoga mat spray that cleaned without chemicals and smelled like something worth inhaling. A sleep spray that actually worked. A bath ritual that felt restorative rather than rushed. And a proper eye pillow for Savasana, something beautiful enough to use in my own practice and generous enough to share with my students.

When I couldn't find them, I designed them myself.

Everything in the Spritz Wellness range exists because I use it. And as the seasons change, so does how I use it. I exfoliate more in summer, reach for different soaps in winter, layer rituals in and out depending on what my body needs. This isn't a fixed prescription. It's a living practice.

Here's what it looks like right now.

Morning — Skin, Senses & Preparation

I cleanse and exfoliate using the Spritz Wellness Exfoliate Soap and Body Scrub. This isn't vanity, it's physiology. Exfoliating in the morning stimulates circulation, clears away what the skin processed overnight, and wakes the senses in a way that no amount of caffeine replicates. Starting my day with natural ingredients means I'm not absorbing synthetic chemicals through freshly opened pores before I've even had breakfast.

But honestly, the reason I do it is simpler than that. It makes me feel like the day is mine. I'm not rushing through a shower. I'm preparing. There's a difference, and you feel it.

Yoga Practice — Mat, Scent & Stillness

I practice and teach yoga almost every day. I don't always practice for long, sometimes twenty minutes is everything, but always with the same opening ritual.

Before I begin, I mist my mat with the Spritz Wellness Yoga Mat Spray. Right now I'm using the Clarity blend most mornings, Tea Tree, Lemongrass, Bergamot, Sandalwood, and Vetiver, because the scent grounds me before I've taken a single breath. The mat is clean, the space smells intentional, and something in my nervous system quietly recognises.

In the evenings, when I practice yin I usually do it by candlelight, I light a Spritz Wellness Candle alongside it. Scent and flame together create something a bare room simply can't, a signal that this is dedicated time, not a gap between tasks.

I end my practice by placing my Aromatherapy Eye Pillow over my eyes during Savasana. The gentle weight activates the vagal nerve response, the body's own mechanism for shifting from sympathetic (fight or flight) to parasympathetic (rest and restore) mode. Combined with the scent of dried lavender and chamomile, it's the most effective two minutes of recovery I know. My students feel it immediately. I never teach without one.

Afternoon — Grounding & Nourishment

Somewhere in the afternoon, I stop.

I make a cup of Spritz Wellness Tea and I don't drink it at my desk. That's the rule. Herbal tea is one of the oldest wellness rituals in existence, and there's a reason it has endured. Warmth, botanical ingredients, and the simple act of sitting down with something intentional in your hands is quietly regulating in a way that's easy to underestimate until you actually try it.

This is my pause. The hinge between the morning's output and whatever the evening holds.

Evening — Restoration & Transition

The shift from doing to being is the hardest transition of the day for most people. It's the one I'm most deliberate about.

Some evenings I run a bath or do a foot soak with the Spritz Wellness Bath Salts. Magnesium-rich salts draw tension out of the muscles and support the nervous system's natural wind-down process. The water is warm and I give myself permission to just be in it. Not planning, not scrolling, not mentally composing tomorrow's to-do list. The bath is where I feel the day genuinely leave my body. Not my mind, that takes a little longer, but the body releases first and the mind eventually follows.

Sleep — The Ritual I Protect Most

Sleep is where everything is repaired, physically, emotionally, neurologically. I treat the hour before sleep as the most important hour of my day.

I mist my pillow and the air around my bed with the Spritz Wellness Sleep Atmosphere Mist, Lavender, Mandarin, Ravensara, and Chamomile. I've done this every night for years. The scent has become such a deeply conditioned cue for my nervous system that I can feel my body begin to soften as I spray it. That's not marketing, that's how olfactory conditioning works. The same scent, the same context, repeated consistently, builds a neurological association that makes sleep easier to access each time.

I sleep with the Spritz Wellness Eye Mask to block light completely. Even ambient light through closed eyelids suppresses melatonin production. Darkness isn't optional for quality sleep, it's biological.

And across my chest, I place my Spritz Wellness Wheat Bag. The gentle, grounding weight across the sternum activates the body's pressure receptors in a way that is deeply calming, similar in principle to a weighted blanket, but warmer, more targeted, and entirely natural. For anyone who carries anxiety or tension in the chest, and so many of us do, this is the thing I recommend above almost everything else.

I fall asleep to quiet. No screens, no scrolling. The ritual has already done the work.

What I've Learned After Years of This

Wellness isn't a product or a trend.  It's a practice, and products are only useful insofar as they support that practice consistently.

What the Spritz Wellness range does is remove the friction from ritual. The mat spray means I never have to think about whether my mat is clean before I begin. The sleep spray means I don't have to work to wind down, the scent does it for me. The bath salts mean the evening ritual takes five seconds to begin rather than ten minutes to prepare.

When the ritual is easy, you do it. When you do it consistently, it works.

That's the whole idea. That's always been the whole idea.

FAQ

Do I need to use all the products to feel the benefit? No, and I'd actively discourage starting with everything at once. Begin with one ritual, whichever feels most needed. For most people that's sleep, because it's where the deficit is most acutely felt. One product used consistently will do more for you than five used occasionally.

What would you recommend for someone new to aromatherapy? The Sleep Mist, without hesitation. It's the most immediate, the most evidence-supported, and the most likely to produce a noticeable result quickly. Spray it on your pillow every night for two weeks, just that one thing, and see what happens.

How long does it take to feel a difference? For sleep, most people notice a shift within a week of consistent use. For yoga, the benefit is immediate, the scent shifts the quality of the space before you've moved a muscle. For skin, two to three weeks of consistent morning exfoliation makes a visible difference in tone and texture.

Is this realistic for a busy life? Yes, because none of it adds time. It replaces what you're already doing (showering, sleeping, bathing) with a more intentional version of the same thing. The only investment is consistency, and even that gets easier the longer you do it.
