The 4 Best Ways To Transition To A Calmer Autumn

August 18, 2019 By Urb Organic Spa

the 4 best ways to transition to a calmer autumnGetting tired of the party atmosphere that summer inevitably brings? It’s nice to hit up the beach, but all the sand and hot weather can start to get a bit much. Thankfully, autumn is in the air. A return to routine, cooler nights, and sense of settling in. If you’re feeling a bit anxious about this sudden shift in seasons, we have the best ways to transition to a calmer autumn.

Celebrate summer

Summer is a fun season. It’s a time to party and catch up with friends. Even if you’re ready for a different season, you can still appreciate summer for what it was. End summer with a bang. Have that last beach picnic or backyard BBQ. If there’s a particular outdoor activity you love doing in the summer, be sure to find time for it. A paddleboard at sunset or a game of beach volleyball. Take that last road trip with your friends. It’s important to leave summer with no regrets; after all, it won’t come again for another year.

Why Having A Facial Peel Is Essential In The Summer

July 19, 2019 By Urb Organic Spa

why having a facial peel is essential this summerReady to improve your face? Wanting to get a facial peel, but not sure when is the best time? Well, it turns out that a facial peel is essential in the summer. Here’s why.

Mops up oil

If you’re like most people, even a bit of exercise in the summer heat can quickly turn to an oily face. All that sweat means you’re working hard, but it’s also an open invitation for your pores to open up and turn into acne.

One of the ingredients in a facial peel is salicylic acid. This ingredient will actually absorb excess oil in the skin. If used in high-grease times, like the summer, it can naturally cut down on that bothersome greasy feeling so often felt.

5 Ways To Unwind This Summer

June 18, 2019 By Urb Organic Spa

5 ways to unwind this summerWhile each season is unique, perhaps none is more so than summer. Full of activities and time off work, summer seems to take your well-crafted schedule and turn it on its head. The busyness of summer is unique and fun, but can often be overwhelming, too. If this is the case, here are five ways to unwind this summer.

Grab a good book

It’s time to tackle that mounting pile of books you just didn’t have time for during the rest of the year. Now, there’s no reason that summer books need to be light or frothy. In fact, lighter books are best for the times when you’re busy and need an easy read at night. You don’t have to tackle War and Peace this summer but try your best to challenge yourself. Head to the library for inspiration or ask around. Take a chance with a new author. It never hurts to try a new book, and if you don’t like it, no one is forcing you to finish it.

5 Ways To Put Yourself First

May 18, 2019 By Urb Organic Spa

5 ways to put yourself firstFeeling like life is moving too fast? You’re constantly rushing around to meet someone else’s schedule. At the end of the day, you finally have some me-time but you’re too exhausted to enjoy it. It’s time to put yourself first.

Make a list

How do you want to spend your time, and what are your priorities? Having ‘me time’ is great but is also vague and hard to implement. Stop and take a few minutes to organize your thoughts and write down what that ‘me time’ should look like. Maybe it’s finding time to regularly get your hair cut. Maybe it’s more time to read and finish a book. It could be more time to walk or stay active. Once you know what you want more of in life, the easier it will be to make that happen.

4 Ways Journaling Can Lead To A More Peaceful You

April 18, 2019 By Urb Organic Spa

4 ways journaling can lead to a more peaceful youIs your life becoming too hectic? Are you constantly rushing around, trying desperately to tackle that to-do list? Ironically, as we have created a world that is easier, we somehow have managed to overfill our time. So, what can we do about this stressful life? Journaling is a unique opportunity for us to connect with yourselves. If you want a return to a simpler life, journaling can lead to a more peaceful you.

Mindfulness

Mindfulness is about being present in the present. It is about being aware of what is happening at this moment. It’s not about checking your smartphone as you watch a show on Netflix while also eating your dinner. It’s about being aware of one task that you are doing. Mindfulness is about being committed fully to whatever you are doing, even if you are doing nothing.

How Mindfulness Can Create A More Relaxed You

March 18, 2019 By Urb Organic Spa

how mindfulness can create a more relaxed youMindfulness means that you are aware of what you are doing. You aren’t distracted by thinking about what needs to happen next. Instead, you are awake and alive in the present moment. That sounds rather enticing, right? Turns out, mindfulness can be a bit harder to achieve than just willing it to happen. However, with the right frame of mind and bit of perseverance, mindfulness can create a more relaxed you.

Too much screen time

It’s said over and over again, but it’s time to put the smart phone down. While these amazing devices have benefitted our lives is so many ways, the truth is that they are just far too distracting. When is the last time you watched an entire movie without looking at your phone? Do you have two types of TV shows that you watch: ones that need your attention and ones that are just on the background while you’re on your phone?

Yes, even watching TV can be a mindful activity. The next time that you plan on watching a show, especially if it’s with another person, put the phone away. If you can, place it in an entirely separate room so that there is no temptation.

February 19, 2019 By Urb Organic Spa

3 ways to meditate for a calmer youWhen you think of meditation, to you immediately picture a person in a yoga pose, calmly breathing in and out? While this is one form of meditation, there are actually many other ways to perform the calming practice. If you find yourself caught up in the hustle and bustle of life, you may want to try mediation. To help you get started, here are four different ways to meditate.

Body Scan

Starting the journey to meditation can be difficult if you’re not exactly sure what to do. The goal is to free your mind of thoughts, but that can be really hard. One form of meditation is called a body scan, and is a great exercise if you just can’t get rid of your thoughts. Start by sitting in a quiet, comfortable location. Close your eyes and then go through your body. Start with your toes. With each breath in and out, locate a new body part. Become aware if there are any issues or stresses within that body part. Slowly work your way towards the top of your body.

Performing a body scan is the perfect way to get to know your body better. It is also a chance for you to practice controlling your thoughts during meditation. As an added bonus, this is also a noteworthy way to help you fall asleep at night.

4 New Year’s Resolutions For A More Relaxed You

December 18, 2018 By Urb Organic Spa

4 new years resolutions for a more relaxed you

The Christmas holidays are a time of fun, excitement, and unfortunately, a lot of stress. The beginning of a new year in January is the perfect time to pause and focus on yourself. Here are a few ways to create new year’s resolutions that lead to a more relaxed you.

Quality, not Quantity

It’s not about how much you do of something, but how well you do with it. For example, instead of trying to read a giant stack of books that maybe have little meaning, or are really just fluff, try to tackle more meaningful books. Find a memoir that will inspire you. Pick up a classic that you’ve always meant to read. You could pick a book with your partner and read it together to have something to discuss at night. Or, find a book club that will help inspire debate and get your minds working. The point is that if you can invest your time wisely, you will appreciate your hard work and effort.
