It’s a long wonderful summer, a time when you are exposed to sun, extreme heat, all that’s in the air that attracts to your skin like a magnet: salt water, pool water, “fresh” water, dirt, sand, leaves, oils and especially sweat. You’ve also reached the height of the season’s activity and need a quick break, a little quiet, and a little time to rejuvenate and re-energize before you squeeze every moment of enjoyment of the remainder of the summer. Your wallet may need a break, too, so instead of spending a lot to go to an Away Spa or a Day Spa, spend a little to turn your bathroom into a Stay Spa, Try this:
Aromatherapy: use products with ingredients derived from nature: herbs, flowers, extracts from tree bark and leaves. Peppermint, rosemary, jasmine, orange peel are so effective. Candles with natural oils can be relaxing, too.
Soothing Baths: bath salts ease tired, achy muscles after your new workout routine. A bath of powdered milk gets rid of dry, ashy skin. Add fresh herbs, plant extracts and oils mentioned above to your bath.
Skin/body Treatments: exfoliate your skin with scrubs purchased from the spa you visited or a sea salt scrub made at home.
And when your Stay Spa session is done, don’t forget to moisturize!
Repeat throughout the year for a continuously healthy mind, body and soul.
