It is time to indulge in some soothing waters and let your worries melt away as you embark on a journey of relaxation and rejuvenation with these tips for the perfect hydrotherapy day:

• Clear Your Schedule of Stressful Events

When it comes to reducing stress, one of the most important things is to clear your schedule of stressful events. That means prioritizing your commitments and responsibilities by identifying unnecessary things. By prioritizing self-care and setting boundaries, you create a more peaceful and balanced life for yourself. This may mean saying no to things that don't serve your well-being and dedicating time to activities that bring you joy and peace. Taking control of your schedule is a powerful way to reduce stress and cultivate a sense of calm in your daily life.

• Gather Your Supplies:

As you set your intention for this spa day, ensure you have all the essentials to stay comfortable: bath salts, face masks, body oils, aqua slippers, fluffy towels, a water pillow and a long, woolly robe; plus tea or wine and your journal. These will ensure your spa day stays cozy and comfortable throughout the session.

• Set the Mood:

Create a tranquil atmosphere with eucalyptus steam, dimmed lights, soft music, and light-scented natural nonparaffin candles to enhance your overall experience.  Indulge the senses with a good book, a calming meditation, write in your journal or simply enjoy the peaceful silence.

• Unplug and Unwind:

Disconnect from the outside world by setting your phone to emergency calls only, and focus on being present in the moment as you embrace the soothing sensations of hydrotherapy.

• Temperature Control:

Now is the time for the plunge. Ensure the water temperature is just right for you. Not too hot or too cold. Just comfortably enough to help relax your muscles and calm your mind.

• Choose the Right Order:

You can begin your spa with a luxurious bubble bath or a long soak in a warm tub to unwind and destress. Alternatively, immerse your entire body in warm water for 1 to 3 minutes. Immediately follow with a 1-minute dip or shower in cold water. Repeat this process for approximately 20 minutes, ending with cold water. That should be about four to five transitions.

• Treat Your Skin: 

Pamper yourself with a gentle exfoliation, self-massage or water jets targetting specific areas of tension in your body for a more therapeutic effect. Add a rejuvenating facial mask to the process, to give your skin a radiant glow.

• Mindful Breathing:

Practice deep breathing and progressive muscle scan exercises throughout to promote relaxation, reduce stress, and enhance the overall calming effects of hydrotherapy.

• Hydrate:

 Drink plenty of water before, during, and after your session to stay hydrated and maximize the benefits of the experience.


With these tips in mind, you're all set to have the perfect hydrotherapy day filled with relaxation, and rejuvenation, and go from Ahh... to moments of bliss.

Just like we all have our own individual features, your resume should reflect your individuality. Here are seven best practices to help you achieve this. 1.

Journey of Self: Who Are You?

By
How do you begin to answer this question? Do you begin with your name, relations, occupation, achievements, life status or family lineage? How about sexual, spiritual or solar orientation? No? Then you must be your race, creed, nationality, or background? Right?... So, if none of those define you, tell me... do you really, truly and honestly know who you are? How might you begin to find out? As individuals we have so many intricacies and facets to our lives that if we have not consciously taken the time to find out who we are, we could be living a lie or someone else idea of who we are. I know, I know...I can hear the protest loud and clear: "I know who I am." But really, do you? I have news for you. What you do and where you came from are NOT you!  That's right, it is an extension of who you are, but it certainly isn't you in its entirety. You were who you are, long before you learned how to walk, talk, read, or write. Long before your passed or cu
