This book just screams pampering. Creating a home spa? I can imagine this with a group of girlfriends or just a day alone. Either way would be remarkable and much needed as the Winter has taken it’s toll on skin and emotions.

I’d love to take a day and focus on me. Just put away the computer and turn off the tv. This book shows 4 different ways to create your weekend home spa; cleansing, energizing, relaxing and pampering.

I can also see giving this book to many women in my life so they’ll remember to focus on themselves. Build a gift basket around it and set up their home retreat.

There used to be a time when fitness spas were more about being pampered than becoming fit. You went there to to relax and be spoiled with mud wraps and massages. Today, although there are many spas which still offer this kind of amenity, more women are choosing spas in which they can be taught to change their lifestyle. They want to become healthier and lose weight at the same time.

Health and fitness spas have taken it upon themselves to empower women to change their eating habits and to feel good about themselves as well. A healthy way of living has become the focus of women around the world, and fitness spas have approached good health and dieting with a new purpose. Of course they are also still teaching you to take care of yourself, so some minor or major pampering will still happen. You will just have healthy smoothies instead of glasses of wine.

Attending a fitness spa allows a woman not only to relax and enjoy the spa experience, but also to focus on strategies which can be utilized later on in conquering weight gain, self-image concerns, and behavior which contributes to their growing anxiety over weight loss.

Perhaps the positive results gained from attending a fitness spa for a weekend is due to the fact that there are no demands being placed on the woman. For two days, there are no phone calls, family tugging at your sleeve, errands to run, a house to clean, or shopping at the supermarket. The mind is no longer cluttered with thoughts of lists unfinished or tasks undone.

Instead, the entire focus of the weekend is on you and you alone. Time is taken to regroup, reenergize, and find the balance within. You can focus on a healthy routine and get habits in place before having to go back to your real world. Also as a participant in a fitness spa, you will learn new techniques; new principles to apply to your lifestyle that will enhance the way you feel and become the catalyst for change.

While weight loss is a part of the fitness and health spa experience, feeling like a new person who has become empowered to improve your overall being is an experience every woman should enjoy in their lifetime.
