Make time for you this New Year

If there’s one New Year’s health and wellbeing resolution worth keeping throughout 2017, then it’s making sure that you keep on top of your self-care and create a bit of time just for you.

In a fast paced world where we rarely stop to take a breath and we’re often overloaded with work and home responsibilities, technology and noise, it’s essential to carve out some time to sit back, relax and unwind.

Without a little time out and space to escape the hustle and bustle of daily life, we’re bound to burn out fast and our health is often the first thing to suffer.

For your health and wellness to flourish, taking time to slow things down can actually make you more productive in the long run.

While we all deal with various degrees of stress on a daily basis, too much can be detrimental to our health and can lead to anxiety, insomnia and various physical ailments. Symptoms of stress include constant fatigue, muscular tension, memory loss, a feeling of ‘fogginess,’ nervousness and hyperactivity. Taking time to experience tranquillity is essential for regaining the balance that’s so often lost in our lives.

Aromatherapy

Aromatherapy oils are a wonderful way to treat the body holistically and soothe the mind, body and soul. Aromatic products such as the [ comfort zone ] Tranquillity range, which contains a unique blend of oils that help to balance stress and in turn help with sleep problems and boost your mood, vitality and energy levels.

By stimulating a positive emotional response within the body, the Tranquillity range includes a range of gorgeous products that can be used at home including a blended oil, aromatic candle, luxurious bath and body oil together with a shower, body and hand cream to offer a wellbeing experience for body and mind.

Colouring

Spa

Visiting a Spa is arguably one of the best ways to truly relax and escape the everyday pressures of life. There’s nothing quite as calming as being surrounded by water, the feeling of hydrotherapy jets massaging your skin and the aromas created by scented candles and oils burning.

Even an hour spent in the Spa can help you to de-stress and relax. The steam room and sauna are particularly helpful for relieving tight, sore muscles – especially when followed up with a bespoke massage afterwards.

Massage

Regular massage is essential for optimum health and has been proven to reduce levels of cortisol – the stress hormone responsible for overworking our adrenal glands and causing us to feel tired and lose our spark.

A regular bespoke massage is highly recommended for those struggling with adrenal overload and at the Devonshire Spa, our therapists will always create a personalised massage to suit your individual needs and ensure that it’s perfectly tailored just for you.
