Stepping into the spa can sometimes be the perfect way to end a long day spent hunched over the desk and constantly on the go from your endless to-do list of activities. Next time you’re relaxing in your hot tub, try out some of these ideas to help enhance your opportunity to de-stress from the day’s worth of activities, and to set your mind at ease from the on-the-go hustle of the day.

1) Drink some herbal tea

Calming herbal teas like chamomile and lavender are known for their relaxation benefits of helping to put your mind at ease during times of stress. During the summertime months, a chilled glass of tea could help refresh and rehydrate you while you enjoy a comforting jet back massage from your hot tub.

2) Indulge in a light snack

Stress can deplete your body of healthy vitamins and minerals. Replenish your body with some antioxidant fighting fruits and veggies after you soak in the spa. Some sweet and savory fruits of the summer will also help refresh and rehydrate you after your dip in the hot tub.

3) Listen to music

Grab your headphones as you head out to the spa so that you can listen to some calming music to help put your mind at ease as you enjoy some alone time in the spa.

4) Read a book

Curl up with your favorite book as you lounge back in the spa. Let your mind drift away to the tales of your favorite novel while you let your mind wander and take a break from your busy on-the-go lifestyle.
