Transorm Your Home into a Spa Retreat
Last night, DH and I were talking about cruises, retreats, bed & breakfasts, presidential suites, and how we can take those wonderful places and make them a part of our new home. It's not like we have a staff of employees or a personal chef to provide us with turn-down sheets and specially made meals or to pack a picnic basket but we should be able to make the ordinary extraordinary.
We started bouncing around words and ideas that conjure up feelings of contentment: Aromatherapy, plush bedding, chocolates, fancy soap, luxurious towels, colors on the walls, bird feeders, sounds of the ocean. Hey! These are all things we can have at home - and at reasonable prices.
A retreat is a place where we go to be pampered, relax and to forget life's stresses. Why not make our home our retreat? We can start small by incorporating a few things at a time. We will find ways around obstacles such as wanting a fireplace when we don't have one or have the space to bring in an electric one.
Can you see how adding a few touches here and there can make life a little easier? Do you have a "zen room" or a meditation corner? Do you have a favorite "recipe" for a spa treatment or do you have a "menu" of spa items?
P.S., Please remember to schedule some time today just for you.

Life can be pretty busy and and crazy sometimes. We may not be able to completely create a full-time retreat in our home but we can add special touches throughout or create one room that is tranquil. Vacations are wonderful but a lot of effort goes into planning. Why not have a "stay-cation" and create an in-home spa?Can you see how adding a few touches here and there can make life a little easier? Do you have a "zen room" or a meditation corner?
