I 2nd that

Alone time

Playing piano ๐น
massage, candles, music, face mask and throw in some frozen strawberry daiquiris

Checking every night that the alarm clock *will* be extra loud at 5am (hitting snooze every 5min for at least an hour or, on weekends, just laughing at its complete ineffectual)

Reading in bed

Foot massage

Hot oil for hair and scalp, TENS treatment for stiff joints, sugar scrub to exfoliate, follow with vanilla body wash in hot shower, then all over moisture with neutragena body oil.

Doing my nails while watching The Golden Girls

And my hair in a bun soaking up olive oil, I forgot

i dont have any like idk my bff and i are so stressed and im thinking of maybe taking us to a spa but neither of us have ever been before & idk!!!! i feel scared and nervous, have any of you guys been to a spa and can please share your experience ty! (im thinking maybe we could get a facial idk)

i really always dreamed of getting like a scalp/hair treatment thing and now more than ever bc ive lost soooo much hair ),: it isnt always very noticeable bc im blonde so it blends in with my scalp but idk i cant wear most hairstyles in public now bc it's so bad (it's bc of genetics, pcos & stress)
I do spa weekends with besties a lot - and it's super relaxing - having massages together and then relaxing after with a tea or flavoured water - face masks feel great too - my bestie in the US is super stressed all the time - kept telling her to get a massage and she would never get around to it
..so got her a gift certificate to a spa near her home to "force" her to go - it was her first time and she absolutely loved it!! said it really helped with her stress - I feel your pain with the hair - ive been losing mine cos of stress so I put clip ons when I go out - def get a head massage
..you'll love it!!

The only time I've been to a spa was during my honeymoon. We got a couples massage and a fish pedicure which we didn't know about the health concerns at the time. (We didnt have any issues) I have been dying to try a scalp treatment because my scalp cleansing shampoo is not working.

I go to a spa twice a year with my mom, and it's always a delight. And I'm autistic, I have lots of problems with sounds and textures, but the communal pool spa has always soothing noises and smal cascades an sprouts to cover any stressing sound, and if you have dobts about a smell or a texture you

Can usually ask to touch/smell a small sample. It also does wonders for migranies, and your skin feels so soft after a facial!

BB cream, hides a multitude of sins lol xXx๐xXx

Drinking lots of water to hydrate my body
Music and a good Book

Meditation
