How to create a DIY spa day at home

Set the scene for a relaxing bath

Create mood lighting with candles and listen to relaxing music, such as the sounds of nature. Pour yourself a refreshing drink, grab some fresh fruit or nuts, and hang a dressing gown and towel over the radiator for when you finish.

Make a steam room

Steam opens your pores and clears your airways. Run a hot bath with the door closed and drop some aromatherapy oils into the water. Then put a towel over your head, cucumber on your eyes and breathe in deeply.

Scrubs and masks

Scrubs and masks leave your skin glowing. For a DIY honey and sugar body scrub - simply mix oil, sugar and honey. For a face mask try bananas and avocados mixed with egg whites or turmeric and honey.

Nourish your hair

Nourishing ointments restore tired-looking hair. Argan oil is packed with antioxidants and Vitamin E. Comb a few drops through your hair and leave it in overnight. Other natural oils such as olive oil or coconut oil also work.

Meditate

Quiet your mind by meditating. This will help create a feeling of inner peace and calm. Apps such as Headspace and Calm are great for this. Simply choose an exercise that works for you.

Feel totally relaxed and refreshed after spending time in your peaceful sanctuary!
