Dreading the Holidays? Here Are Some Tips to Help You Enjoy Them & Recover!

Being around family isn’t easy. Some people love it, some people hate it and others just do it because they’re supposed to. If it’s a torture to you, we want to give you an idea for recovering from it that you’ll love. And if you’d like to enjoy it, we’ve got some tips to share there too.

Have a better holiday than the years before and come out feeling good about it. Here’s how:

Remember the truth: This time is temporary and this is your family. You didn’t choose them, but here they are. Love the good inside them and don’t waste your time arguing. You’re not likely to change anyone’s opinions so don’t bother. If they need to think or act differently that’s their own growth to go through. They’ll grow much faster if you sit back and love them.

Simple Conversation: Avoid talking about major issues, family grudges, politics and personal choices. Talk about simple things like music, the books you’re reading, family vacations or the latest movies. And if the complex topics arise, refer to the last point. Don’t waste your time trying to prove something to anyone. It’s always a dead end or painful experience.

Find Kindness: Look for ways to be kind. Compliment people. Listen carefully and attentively to the other person. (If you’re not bothering to argue or convince them of anything, this should be easy to do, and good practice for your communication skills!) Take it further and look for opportunities to tell people why you appreciate them and what you admire about them. This is sure to uplevel the mood in the air.

Recover: It’s no easy task handling family. When you’re done, you want to go home, fall on the couch and put your feet up. So do it. But upgrade the experience. All that effort and conversation (and avoiding arguments) can make you tense and tired. So make sure you have a couple bottles of Eurospa’s Eucalyptus Oil Shower Mist, because this will calm your muscles, nerves and mood down so fast. Run a hot shower and spritz a couple sprays into the steam. Get in and just stand there. Breathe. Aromatherapy at this level will work wonders for you. And when you’re done - relax. Put on a movie, read a book or go to bed. You’ve done well.

The holidays are a perfect time for us to be better people. It’s not easy and definitely takes practice, but you can do it. And when you’re done exercising this muscle, you get sweet relief.

From all of us at Eurospa, have a beautiful holiday.

How to Make the Perfect Spa Themed Gift Basket

Simple gifts are easy to give, but why not make it even more special without the complication. A spa themed gift basket is a perfect match for just about anyone with stress or a busy life. Do you know anyone that isn’t stressed? Likely not, so this is a win win gift.

Want to make a spa gift? It’s incredibly easy and affordable as well. Here’s how:

1. Grab a medium sized basket or box. Choose natural wood or soothing colors. This is where you’ll stash everything.
2. Make sure you have things to fill the box with and these can be strips of newspaper, cotton balls or even cloth.
3. Fill the basket with items perfect for inducing relaxation and the spa experience. Some ideas include an eye mask, a facial scrub or liquid mask, some lavender oil, candles, massage lotion, a massage voucher and finally - no basket is complete without some Eucalyptus oil shower spray. (More ‘how to’ here) The spray can be used in any hot shower or bath to bring extra rejuvenation and immune boosting.
4. Create little note cards with instructions and the reason for each item included.
5. Top it all with a bow.

You’re ready to present your gift. Whether or not you wrap it completely is up to you. But we assure you, this is a crowd pleasing gift at any age.

Eurospa has been providing the highest quality of pharmaceutical grade Eucalyptus oil to both homes and spas for more than 30 years. We are honored to provide it to you as well and are happy to answer any questions you might have.

From us to you, have a happy holiday!

Skip the Confusion. We Have the Perfect Christmas Gift for Dad.

Have you noticed the holiday shopping season has begun? It’s hard to miss with all the Christmas music and trimmings everywhere. And whether you are an early bird or last minute deal finder, you’ll likely agree that Dad is always the hardest to shop for and he’s often saved for last. Since you know he’s likely got enough ties, fragrances and gift cards, how about giving him a gift that will help him feel, look and live younger?

We at Eurospa, have created our Eucalyptus Shower Mist for anyone that wants to feel and be more healthy - but we’ve noticed that men simply rave about it. It’s a way to stay healthy that they don’t have to eat, won’t smell like flowers and that keeps their mind and body energized and clear. Some ailments that it commonly relieves are arthritis, muscle pain, respiratory difficulties and hair and skin issues. The best way to reap the benefits is through steam inhalation.

Eucalyptus steam inhalation is recommended by some alternative practitioners for relieving nasal congestion and sinus congestion, usually from colds and flu. It can be done two to four times a day to relieve symptoms. If you're not able to do this, a steamy shower, vaporizer, or facial sauna is an alternative.

Eucalyptus oil is an essential oil which can be found in many health food stores and online. It should not be confused with camphor oil. Eucalyptus oil should not be ingested, applied directly to the skin, or used in excess of suggested amounts.

This is why Eurospa developed a eucalyptus oil shower spray. You simply run the hot water in your shower, close the windows and doors for full effect - and spray the mist once or twice into the steam. Breathe in deeply and let it do it’s work.

You’ll be amazed at how refreshed, energized and lose your body will feel!

At Eurospa, our passion is to provide you with the highest quality products possible to allow you the chance at great health and divine relaxation.  We are proud to offer the gift of health to you this holiday season and to save you the stress of deciding what to get dad for Christmas!
