5 Steps to Help Make Relaxation a Habit.
August 15th is National Relaxation Day, which is a great opportunity to take a break from our hectic lives to relax and regroup. It is important for your overall well-being to take time to de-stress and give your body and mind time to rejuvenate.
Healthy relaxation habits can help to ease the stress of everyday life. They are very important to prevent you from overwhelm and burn-out.
Relaxation can reduce the levels of toxins that contribute to many major diseases. Practicing how to relax is really easy. Just incorporate a few simple changes into your daily routine and create habits to relieve stress. Read on to learn how to make relaxation a habit.
- Breathe.
Take a deep breath in and release.
Take a deep breath! Breathing relaxes the mind and body. Sit quietly in a comfortable position. Close your eyes and relax all of your muscles starting with your feet and slowly moving to each area until you reach your face. Slowly inhale and exhale deeply through your nose. Start with five minutes and build up to ten.
- Listen to calming sounds.
Do you listen to relaxing music to de-stress? Choose music or sounds that are relaxing and reduce stress. Once your work day is over listen to relaxing music, close your eyes and breathe to unwind from the day’s activities. You’ll feel the serenity right away. I’ve discovered I relax best to the soothing sounds of water. One of my favorite albums is Healing Waters by Dean Evenson and another is Ocean Dreams.
- Get a massage in the comfort of your home.
Ahh a massage at home.
Enjoy the benefits of de-stressing massage without leaving home. A massage provides many benefits, including relieving stress, relaxing tense muscles, and relaxing the mind. One of the best ways to achieve this state of true relaxation is by booking an appointment and getting a massage in the comfort of your home. No need to drive and get stressed out by traffic or worry about finding a parking space.
- Spend time with someone special.
When was the last time you spent some quality time with your partner? Combine time with your hubby with a relaxing couples massage to increase your relaxation. Indulge in blissful aromatherapy massages side by side for you and your beloved, in the comfort of your home. We turn your home into a romantic haven by burning incense and candles and we bring soothing music that will have you drifting away in no time. The rest of the evening we leave up to you
- Relax with friends.
Friends make your life interesting and wonderful. Connecting with friends helps you to feel more relaxed and happy. A Spa Party gathering is a great way to combine fun and laughter with relaxing and rejuvenating treatments. It is perfect for a girls’ night in get-together. Treat yourself to a night of relaxation as well as to your favorite services from our list that will leave looking and feeling years younger. All this while you enjoy “Girl Time” with your favorite friends, what could be better? The party is done in the comfort of your own home so you don’t have to drive anywhere. Just pick your date, time and favorite services and we will take care of the rest.
