New reality has us learning to combine working from home, family time and activities -and yes, it can be stressful. A little relaxation is needed more than ever, but it's out of reach. Why not creat a luxurious spa day at home? Believe me, it's easier than you think! The key word here is preparation - everything must be set to keep interruptions at a minimum. Make sure you have what you’ll need beforehand.

Keep your mind set on what you want to achieve through this time for yourself and prepare for the day.

Set this much needed time for selfcare aside when you know you will not be disturbed with work or other obligations. Add it to your calendar, like you would a spa appointment. Make a list of everything you need to create your perfect spa day at home, like skincare products, towels, candles, your favorite playlist, refreshments.

Recreate the tranquil atmosphere at home with aromatic smells from an essential oil diffuser, humidifier or candle. The right music can make you feel at ease and tune out any noise around you. Put on a soft robe and slippers, feel comfortable.

Prepare your refreshments whether it's herbal tea, fruit juice, wine or just a glass of cold water. You'll need hydration after all. Have some warm, damp towels ready to wipe the products from your face before you moisturize. Choose your treatments: facial, body scrub, massage, foot care, hair masks...take your time!
