Mom's have a special place in our hearts. They're our biggest fans and they're always looking out for us. No one loves you quite the way she does. Though Mom always enjoys flowers and chocolates, add a personal touch this Mother's Day and giver her something that she needs and has always wanted. Give Mom the gift of relaxation.
Start by creating a peaceful atmosphere.
Play some soothing tunes, dim the lights and light a few candles.
ShampureTMSoy Wax Candle is ideal for soothing and calming the senses with its aroma of 25 pure flower and plant essences, including certified organic lavender, petitgrain and ylang-ylang.
Next, draw a warm bath.
Add a couple tablespoons of Aveda's
Stress-Fix Soaking Salts. Soak in the tub with your eyes closed and take a deep breath. You can also try the "bumble bee breath," an ancient yoga breathing technique that prompts relaxation and the release of serotonin. Start by taking in a deep breath and then slowly exhale, while making a buzzing "Mmm" sound. Repeat the breathing exercise for two to five minutes or simply just sit and soak it all in.
After you step of out of the bath, seal in the moisture.
Hydrate your skin with Aveda's
Stress-FixTM Body Lotion. Infused with essences of lavender, lavandin and clary sage, this lotion is clinically proven to reduce feelings of stress. Begin by rubbing the lotion into your hands, then hold them under your nose and take a deep breath. Then massage onto tense areas such as the neck, shoulders and forearms using the ayurvedic technique of moving in circular motions at the joints and back-and-forth motions in-between joints. Apply to your abdomen using clockwise circular motions. The Ayurvedic technique promotes harmony and balance, leaving the body feeling rejuvenated and refreshed.
Mom has done so much for you over the years. Now is the time to return the favor and give Mom a break. Make her feel extra special this Mother's Day. She had to put up with you, so she deserves it.
