Are you stressed 😩 🤯about the holidays!?!?

🗣 Not me!!! I am getting in some much needed relaxation before the holiday season 🎄 gets underway and the final quarter of the year comes to a close. 🙌🏾 Journey with me, as I share my recent and relaxing quick trip to Glenwood Springs and the Yampah Spa (vapor caves).

Yampah Spa is running a monthly special 🧖‍♀️ (December 2018) that includes all day access to the vapor caves, in addition to a body wrap, private mineral bath and massage. Each service is 30-45 minutes, economical and worth every minute (at least 3.5 hours of services).

The caves are so relaxing and calm! Cave temperatures average 110 -112 degrees F., allowing repeated visits of 10 -12 minutes separated by brief rests in a nearby cooling room, or upstairs in the spacious solarium. Cold water and small tubs are also available for cooling off in the caves. As soon as you walk down the stairs all of your worry and stress melt away as you relax into the vapor. You can layout on marble stones or sit quietly as you soak in one of mother nature’s best healing spaces.

Next stop, a private mineral bath. Scents can be added to your bath providing an aromatic and inviting space. As I sat in the tub reflecting on the year and connecting with my body, I could not help to feel a sense of calm, gratitude and peacefulness. Not to mention the warmth my body felt from previously being in the caves.

 After soaking 🛀🏾, it was now time for the gingerbread thermal body wrap. With the light mood music playing softly in the background and the comfort and warmth of the wrap, I quickly fell asleep 😴! Thermal wraps are sooooooooo relaxing, not to mention the added benefits of cellulite reduction in fat loss, detoxification of the body though the release of toxins, immune system support and increased metabolism.

Massage 💆🏽 time was the final service of the day. They advertised a shoulder, neck and back massage yet, I received a full body massage for the win! 🎉. The massage therapist was so skilled and magnetic with his touch. It was the right amount of pressure to relieve tension, while soft enough to allow me to rest in tranquility and relinquish my body to the table!!! I also dozed off briefly during this service so you know it was good!

After the massage I headed back down to the caves for some additional healing, relaxation and reflection! 2018 has been a really great year. I’ve been blessed to start my blog, my family is well and I have no need to be stressed because I am BLESSED beyond measure! I am excited for the new year and grateful to be spending the holidays with people I love and cherish. 🥰

Love, 💋
