From relieving stress by listening to Drake’s “More Life” album while relaxing in a bubble bath, to watching La La Land in the bedroom, this list can help you make the most out of Valentine’s Day.

1. Netflix (For on-screen romance)

Try the classic “Titanic, ” the British rom-com “Love Actually,” or indie favorite “Amélie.”

2. Tea (So you can feel beau-TEA-ful)

Lavender tea is said to be anti-inflammatory (good for your gut, which is good for your mind), but it’s also supposed to calm down the ladies. Lemon Balm tea can calm the mind and and promote restful sleep. Kombucha Tea can detoxify the body and energize.

Go for variety: Double-Stuffed, Red Velvet or Fudge Creams (Peanut Butter)

7. Two best friends (The only people who can tolerate watching corny romantic movies)

From crying and laughing with you over the movies or sharing gossip about couples, showing love for your friends is equally important on Valentine’s Day.

Treat yourself with Alas, Lunya or Maison du Soir.
