Tune in to yourself

 

Definitely challenging times for us all as I sit here thinking what to write. What seems right for me is tuning in to yourself. Some of the treatments we do as beauty therapists are about self-care and tuning into yourself.

For the month of October we have decided to customise two or three hour packages to either ‘pick you up’ or ‘relax you’. Some clients feel great when their brows, lashes and nails look good – this would be a ‘pick you up package’. Your ‘pick you up package’ could include a manicure, a pedicure, and an eyelash/brow tint and shape. The two hours will give you some time out and pick you up! If you want to extend it to three hours it could include a fuller pedicure and a lash lift. 

The ‘relax you package’ could include for two hours a top-to-toe body scrub followed by a hydrating oil massage and a Pure Fiji foot ritual – complete bliss. If you would like a longer ‘relax you package’ we could add longer massage time and another Pure Fiji ritual for your hands. These packages can be customised to what you would like.

This is a time for self-awareness. Listen to yourself, what is it you need? It may not be an appointment with us, but I’m sure you will find what you need if you give yourself the permission to reflect and listen. It’s important to fill your own cup. If you don’t then how can we support and fill others? During lockdown it was great to see so many people out there walking and connecting with nature. This is a great way to recharge and tune in to yourself. As we move into the last months of this year I hope for health and peace for all.
