New Year, New Resolutions!

Every year on December 31st we welcome the New Year with celebration and a laundry list of resolutions, some that have carried over from years previous.  Although finding fitness, quitting a bad habit and taking up new hobbies are all great ideas, sometimes they simply do not find their way into our daily routines.

Instead, Issaquah InSpa has come up with a few “resolutions” that are simple to follow and only take a few moments out of your day.  Our ideas promote your overall wellbeing, including mental and physical health with tangible results.

1.  Drink more water.

Carry a water bottle with you daily and make sure that there are easily accessible places to fill up.  Not only is water essential in keeping us healthy, it also hydrates our skin and maintains your natural glow.

2.  Wash your face day and night.

While it is easy to get wrapped up in our day-to-day activities, it is extremely important to wash our faces day and night.  Find a cleanser or wash that works best for your skin type and use it!  It helps remove excess make-up, dirt, and oil.  Adding a toner to your skin care regimen is also beneficial.  Toners help prepare the skin to take in moisture while also removing the dirt and oil below the surface.  InSpa carries our own brand toner that is gentle and effective for only $7.50.  For maximum results, the HydroPeptide toner is your first step to brighter, younger-looking skin.

3.  Indulge in a massage.

Though an unlikely resolution, having regular massages are a major health benefit.  Massage is proven to reduce stress, ease pain, improve sleep, boost immunity, and reduce headaches in addition to many other advantages.  Lymphatic drainage restores nutrients by removing toxins when accompanied by drinking a lot of water.  Whether relaxation, stress reduction, or pain relief is your goal, InSpa offers a variety of massages customized to your preference starting at $45.

4. Spend more time with friends and family.

Find a designated day to spend with a close friend or family members full of activities or something as minimal as a coffee date.  Keeping your loved ones up-to-date and staying tuned into their lives helps keep your social life active.  Schedule a pedicure for a couples or even girls day out.  Catch up or relax with our calming Signature pedicure that adds a foot scrub, warm mask, and extended massage to your service.

5. Read more.

Seemingly a time consuming task, reading can take anywhere from seconds to hours.  Taking 5 minutes out of our day to read just a few pages out of a book, a news article, or an inspirational quote not only helps stimulate the brain but it also promotes memory retention and expands our vocabulary.  Over time this could be a significant health improvement.

Start your New Year off right and find the resolution that works best for you.  Stick to it and Feel Great Now!
