For thousands of years, since Roman baths, spas have helped people escape their stress and recover.
The ultimate in pampering.
You hear about the celebrities visiting this spa or that spa in California or Florida.
You've seen the mud baths, the steam rooms, and the cucumber slices.
Total well-being is more than just escaping stress.
It is giving yourself permission to take care of you.
Many people today, especially busy women, simply do not afford themselves this luxury.
Today, we are busier than ever, under more pressure than ever as women to do more, be more, have more.
Give yourself permission to relax.
Exhale.
Really, do it now.
Stop everything you are doing while you are reading this, and just be still for a moment and exhale.
Feel the release? Make an appointment with yourself.
Your family deserves the best of you, and if you are tired, run down and out of energy, you simply don't have it to give to them.
Let go of the guilt and the shame.
Stop feeling like you're stealing from someone else when you do for yourself.
Fill a bath, or find a comfy chair in a corner, light a candle, grab a glass of wine or a cup of tea and a book or magazine.
Make your own spa in your home.
Give yourself an escape from everything once in a while.
If you can't make your appointment with yourself every week, at least make it once a month.
You deserve it!
