How to recreate that blissful spa vibe at home

Scott · November 1, 2021 · Leave a Comment

Spending the day at a spa can be a wonderful way to relax and unwind. However, if you don’t have the time or budget for it, there are lots of ways you can bring the spa to you. So if you have a day coming up where the kids are out and there’s nothing in your diary, why not indulge in a little bit of self-care to melt away any stress you may be feeling? Here are some top tips for how to make it happen.

Atmosphere

The first step is to create a genuinely calming atmosphere in order to ensure that you get the most benefit from your home spa day. Start by taking the landline off the hook and putting your cellphone on silent, then begin transforming your bathroom into a peaceful sanctuary. For example, you could light some scented candles to provide both a gentle fragrance and an ambient flickering glow, or use an oil diffuser if you would prefer an option that doesn’t involve real fire. Some of the most relaxing scents to choose include lavender, chamomile, and ylang ylang.

Another great idea is to ensure that you have a cozy dressing gown and slippers to wear, as well as soft fluffy towels to wrap up in after your bath. Finally, pick a tranquil playlist on Spotify (or whichever music service you use) that you can play in the background throughout the day. Alternatively, if you have the time, you could curate your own playlist so that all your favorite songs are included.

Products

There are lots of little luxuries you might want to stock up on when planning your perfect home spa day. For instance, if you want to enjoy a long soak in the tub, then consider some high-quality bath salts or bubble bath to add to the water. Similarly, a bath pillow for comfort and a tray where you can rest a book or glass of wine make fantastic additions.

If you’re hoping to incorporate some beauty treatments into your spa experience, you’ll find yourself spoiled for choice. For something with a truly professional feel, consider purchasing a facial toning device from mynuface.com or a complete manicure and pedicure set. Other ideas include body scrubs and rich moisturizers to transform your skin or a hair mask for luscious locks.

Activities

For those who wish to lengthen the home spa experience and create a whole day of mindfulness, why not also consider an arty activity. Adult coloring books are fantastic at centering the mind and reducing stress and anxiety, or you could try your hand at a more complicated craft such as knitting or jewelry making. It almost doesn’t matter what you choose, as long as it leaves you feeling relaxed and blissful. Meditation and breathing exercises can also be a wonderful addition to the day or simply curling up with a good book. If you prefer something a little more active, consider following along with a yoga video or taking some time for a walk in nature if the weather is pleasant.
