March is Stress Awareness Month. Has the stress of everything going on in the world left you anxious and irritable? Stress can play a part in problems such as headaches, high blood pressure, heart problems, diabetes, skin conditions, asthma, arthritis, depression, and anxiety. Set your stress aside by enjoying a spa day on your own patio and remember – additional people are optional. Your patio or deck can make the perfect escape from the world. Here are a few tips you can try.
FOOD – A little simple food prep will have you enjoying yourself in no time. Set out healthy snacks like cheese, crackers, grapes, and cucumber water. Open a favorite drink and leave the container close at hand for refills at your leisure. Be sure to pre-treat the patio for pests and cover the food.
MUSIC – Your music selection will set the tone of your getaway. Listen to some of your favorite quiet music – the kind that can easily lull you into a slumber if you so desire.
WATER AND CREAMS – Make sure you’re prepared to pamper yourself with your favorite facial and body creams or oils. Also, a small shallow tub full of water to soak your feet in can be incredibly relaxing.
COMFORTABLE PATIO FURNITURE AND A BOOK – Don’t forget your most comfortable GatherCraft outdoor patio furniture and pillows to curl up on with a good book.
LET YOURSELF GO – Lastly – relax… and let all your cares recede into nothingness. You may find your personal retreat so relaxing that you may decide to have a personal spa day every month.
