This one sounds simple, but having a basic set of instructions to follow can be an effective way of bringing yourself back to the present moment. Maybe it’s some delicious chocolate brownies, maybe it’s a banana cake, this part is completely up to you. Whatever baked goods you decide on, pop some music on and follow that recipe to a T. Most importantly, enjoy the process! In a matter of minutes, your kitchen will be filled with pleasant aromas and an inviting ambiance. It’s hard to be stressed when you’ve got some freshly baked goods melting in your mouth. Not to mention the popularity you’ll find should you decide to bless anyone else with your delicious creation.

An excellent and increasingly popular method of returning to the present moment is practicing mindfulness through meditation. You don’t need anything except a quiet space to get underway, simply sit, or lie comfortably, close your eyes, and focus your entire attention on breathing and how your body moves through each breath. Like any positive change, you will get better through practice and repetition, so it’s important to allow yourself room to drift and come back to the process as you train yourself to focus for longer periods. However, after a few minutes of thoughtful breathing, you will feel your tensions start to dissolve as you drift into mindful thinking. A famous zen maxim reads; “you should meditate for 20 minutes a day unless you’re too busy. Then you should meditate for an hour”.

As shared community spaces continue to breed germ-based anxiety in our post-covid world, investing in your own spa pool or sauna is a practical way to bring relaxation back into your life. Simply sitting in a sauna will help to flush toxins out of your body, cleanse your skin, and induce a deeper, more restful sleep.

Soaking in your Spa Pool’s hot water will help to alleviate aches and pains from exercise, as well as the tensions and stresses of your day. Precise jet massages, combined with heat also increases blood circulation by dilating blood vessels and relieves joint stress through buoyancy. Studies have also suggested that spending time in both saunas and spa pools is effective in reducing headache pain, something all too common after a day spent staring into a screen.
