Sunday Forever’s Ashli Stockton Reveals Her Go-To Self-Care Practices and Wellness Favorites
In an exclusive interview, Ashli Stockton, the innovative mind behind Sunday Forever, opens up about her personal self-care rituals and essential wellness products. Founded in 2016, Stockton’s New York City-based luxury lifestyle brand aims to make self-care not just a Sunday affair, but an everyday essential.
Stockton draws inspiration from the common dread of Sunday evenings — a feeling many recognize as the Sunday Scaries. “Sundays shouldn’t be stressful,” she asserts. “They should be about relaxation and rejuvenation.”
Her weekly Sunday regimen sounds like a spa day at home. “I treat myself to a full ‘everything shower’ ritual. This includes a nourishing hair mask, a refreshing face mask, and a complete body scrub. After that, I apply oil all over my body and then cozy up in our Sleepwalker gown or a robe before styling my hair,” she explains. Following that, she seamlessly transitions into her evening skincare routine, incorporating products like a face roller and retinol. “It’s my reset moment, preparing me mentally and physically for the week ahead,” she elaborates.
Despite a busy schedule, Stockton emphasizes the importance of daily self-care. “I have a variety of hobbies that serve as my breaks. I’ve learned that neglecting self-care only leads to burnout,” she shares. “It’s vital for recharging your mind and body, making you more effective and joyful in all aspects of life.”
Each morning begins on a calming note for Stockton. “I enjoy quiet moments in bed with my husband and our dogs, sipping coffee. After that, I grab a quick breakfast, take my supplements, and follow a brief skincare routine,” she reveals.
Her self-care extends beyond the basics; Stockton enjoys nurturing her plants and cooking several times a week. “I also make sure to feed our birds and other pets every morning. Plus, I give myself manicures and pedicures every couple of weeks. And for fitness, I’ve been practicing Pilates for over 15 years,” she adds.
For those looking to create their own self-care routines, Stockton offers insightful recommendations. “We tackle the challenges of modern life’s relentless pace with products that promote relaxation. Whether it’s our hand-poured candles or handcrafted charm bracelets, each item is designed with the aim of making everyday life a bit brighter,” she emphasizes.
In an era where self-care is vital, Ashli Stockton’s approach is a reminder that tending to our well-being is not only beneficial but essential for a fulfilling life.
