#itstheweekend

Some weeks feel longer than others and some weeks fly by almost unaccounted for… Do you know what I mean?

This week feels like one of those… the long ones… Running, running and more running… but not catching up.

This weekend I plan on doing a big lazy nothing… except relaxing… so I have been thinking lots about how I should do that.

Ideally I would be checking into an incredible spa right about now…  about to be cocooned, detoxed and re-juvenated… I would be listening to calming music… birds twittering, waterfalls falling… I would be feeling the balmy breeze on my exfoliated and nourished skin… and I would be mesmerised by the lap, lap, lap of the waves as they hit the shore…

The reality is not quite so zen…

That doesn’t mean I can’t have a spa like weekend chez moi that is pampering, reviving and refreshing… I shall just have to arrange and perform these indulgences for myself.

 

 the @home spa

 *Drink juice and power up… a favourite green concoction that guarantees a feeling of health and renewed energy.

( cucumber, kale, ginger, lemon and apple… juiced together… vary quantities of ginger and lemon to taste… )

*For the body… exfoliate, soak and nourish

*For the face and lips… mask and moisturise

*For the feet and hands…. smooth and polish

*For the hair… re-condition and re-vitalise

*For the mind… look, learn and listen to all that you have been meaning to discover

*Sleep an uninterrupted 8 hours… the greatest luxury and pamper of them all
