Ultimate self-care #2: The SPA Day at Home

07:00:00


When was the last time you treated yourself to a SPA? Or do you believe it is way too fancy and that you don’t earn a spa day? Let me tell you one thing, you do earn a SPA day, and you can simply have it in the comfort of your own home!

Yesterday I was watching a movie, Eat Pray Love, you should definitely see it if you haven’t! They were talking about how the people in the society feel like they need to earn to have a break but you need enjoy life, because after all, you only live once, you just need to do nothing and enjoy it, “Dolce Farniente”. So, instead of watching Netflix the entire day, let’s have a spa day!

First things first. YOU DO EARN A DAY OFF. Realize that. You work your ass off and you need to refill yourself with love and energy.
So I am going to start this of very awkwardly… Get naked and take a shower... Wash your hair and clean yourself from all the negative energy and dirt that the city did to your most beautiful skin.
Then clean yourself even better by scrubbing, now you want to start for your ankle and move your way up to your heart. By doing this you blood will flow better through your body.
This part is optional, I like to take a shower oil, this will moisturize my skin and leave it even softer than it already was. Also, I don’t really like putting body cream over my body after a shower so this is a great way to be hydrated without body cream.
Enjoy for a view more minutes your shower (or bath), if you like, turn it a little colder before you get out.
Dry yourself and putt your favorite bathrobe on (and don’t forget to add body crème on your body, it needs to be hydrated and nourished, also the smell of your body crème will make you happier J ). Get in the kitchen and make some detox water or a smoothie! Make it visually the most appealing possible so you can feel great satisfaction from you work!
If your home isn’t already tidy make sure you do that first, so that after that you can make it comfy and cozy. Then the only thing you need is to enjoy, eat what you made and get a good book, or maybe just do nothing for a while, you know… DOLCE FARNIENTE!

Let me know how your Spa day looks like! I am curious to know! Maybe there is something I forgot and that other people will enjoy as much as you do enjoy doing that, so let us know!
Lots of love
