How to get a stress free spa experience in the comfort of your home
*Consideration was received for the editing and publishing of this post
Going to a spa is a great way to unwind, but when you have limited free time, you know that getting into your car and driving to your favourite spa will not only eat into your daily schedule, but also your spa itinerary.
So, instead of stressing about travel, all you need to do is bring the spa to you! If this sounds like a totally crazy dream, don’t worry, here are a few tips to help you turn your home into the spa of your dreams.
Remove all distractions
If you have kids, send them to a babysitter for the day, or maybe even overnight. If you can, unplug your home phone and put your cell phone on silent. You need to create a hidden sanctuary in the city, and in order to do this, you need to remove any and all distractions.
If you can bear it, switch off your router (I know, I know, this is a big step) and make a dedicated spa playlist full of your favourite songs - or find a ready made one on youtube!
Make your own treatments
If you want to have an amazing at-home facial, then look no further than your kitchen cupboards. For a classic face mask, grab some live yogurt, honey and a handful of oatmeal and mix it together in a bowl for a mild, exfoliating mask.
If you want to stick to a treatment you know, use your favourite face wash and mask and do your own manicure. This is easy, as all you need is two coats of your favourite nail polish and some nail polish remover in case of spills.
