Lush Cosmetics help soothe and relax the body while clearing the mind
Posted By Journalist on November 5, 2010
According to recent research, stress levels have doubled in 4 years and the result of too much stress can be premature aging, sleep deprivation, spots and skin problems. National Stress Awareness Day earlier this week highlighted the importance of stress management.
To prevent the build up of too much stress in our lives, we continually need to find new ways to rid ourselves of anxiety and, offering a helping hand, Lush Fresh Handmade Cosmetics have a selection of rescue remedies to get you ready to take on another day.
Massage is medically proven to help reduce the levels of stress hormones and release endorphins, the body’s natural feel good hormones. Lush Spa offers a selection of totally natural and holistic treatments to not only work all your muscles and leave your skin looking and feeling fantastic – but also to nurture and nourish your mind, leaving you with an altogether better outlook on life and emerging like a totally new person.
Choose from a selection of treatments, including the Synaesthesia Massage (125.00): A one and a half hour, all-over body treatment (including hot and cold stones, depending on the chosen treatment) that stimulates all the senses to achieve a chosen state of mind. Choose from a menu of words, ranging from ‘Energised’ or ‘Perspective’ ‘ to ‘Mind Cleanser’ – which are states of mind that might ease or help overcome any feelings of stress. The treatment is fully choreographed to an orchestral piece of music with birdsong and sounds of the English countryside woven in and works to provide a little psychological nourishment.
Alternatively, if the budget won’t stretch to spa treatments, then Lush has a whole array of bath and body products, all made with the finest essential oils and plant extracts, to help soothe and relax the body while clearing debris from the mind.
For top-to-toe stress relief why not give yourself, or get someone else to, a full body treatment in the comfort of your own home using Lush’s Therapy Massage Bar (5.65 for 65g). Allow the bar to melt in your hands to release skin softening cocoa butter and shea butter and calming lavender oil and neroli oil. Begin by gently massaging the big toes, which is said to help relieve headaches, then gradually work your way up the body.
Find the time to relax in a bath with this selection of calming and mind soothing products:
Waving Not Drowning Bath Ballistic (2.30)
