Spa Party Spa Home Party:
3. Set A Stress Free Mood:
A spa party needs to have a relaxed atmosphere, so go ahead and create a stress-free mood so that you and your guests can rejuvenate and be stress free and enjoy.
-
 Start your day with a cup of green tea, while sitting in your porch, balcony or patio, look at all the open spaces for a good effect on your mind. - After segregating and reaaranging your furniture for the spa party, make a list of treatments that you would like to include in your spa party.
- Set up spa stations which will have the most needed acceosories for your spa party. Each seating arrangement should have access to one spa station. Divide the number of guests equally among these seating arrangements and spa stations to avoid last minute chaos. These spa stations maybe big tables having neatly arranged sections for fresh, clean towels; clean soft robes, slippers; cleansers, moisturisers; facials, manicure, pedicure equipments; lots of cotton and aromatic lotions and creams; essential oils for massage; candles; drinking water; spa salts; water bottles for each guest (can be given when the guests come and make themselves comfortable.);
- Strains of soft music fend off blues and help stress evaporate. Arrange for soft instrumental music which set to a correct volume will help your guests to loosen up. Create a magical lull with rhythm divine - light jazz, country music or even an Irish jig to pep up the gathering. Preselect your CDs, packed with non-intrusive instrumental beats or low key numbers. Check that all electronic devices like the music system, DVD player and Home Theatre system are working.
- Flickering fruit candles, ivory pillars, handcrafted floaters, scented tea lights and stout wax moulds with quivering wicks add to the ambience. Place the fragrant creations strategically to spotlighting different sections of your living space. The large ones can be used as a centerpiece for tables. Dot the area with colors through fresh flowers arranged in unusual containers, like soft drink cans. Position chimes, maybe even a tiny rockery or gurgling fountain to build upon the charming acoustics.
- Take a short nap, especially on the day of party. A short nap is an excellent way to de-stress yourself. Release the tension and stress and revive yourself with good treatments at your spa party.
- Yoga is one of the most popular forms of exercise at home spas; Yoga exercises include focused relaxation through breathing and meditation. Include a yoga session at your home party and have all yoga accesories ready such as yoga mats, yoga towels; yoga bolsters or cushions, straps. This way you will have influenced your friends to a one step further towards a healthy lifestyle and also feel good about yourself, it produces neurotransmitters in your body that are mood enhancing such as dopamine, and serotonin to name a few.
- Avoid mosquito coils or repellents. Use scented candles or essential oil diffusers instead. Use tea tree, eucalyptus, melissa, lemon grass or the closely related citronella in a diffuser to keep insects at bay.
 Perfumes for parties should not be strong. Soft soothing aromas are best to drive away stress and calm the nerves so that you are completely prepared to get the maximum benefit from the party. Clary sage essential oil or jasmine will create a heady, feel-good atmosohere for a party, or use orange, lemongrass or neroli for a lighter, fresher touch. For a morning party when more space available choose from the spicier oils such as frankincense, cedarwood, sandalwood, cinnamon and orange. Rose, neroli and lavender are delightful all-purpose oils. Use lavender to freshen a musty spare room to make it welcoming for guests. For an exotic, intimate atmosphere use sandalwood or patchouli, or to unwind in the evening, try geranium, lavender, sandalwood or ylang-ylang.- Make your bathroom germ-free and spotlessly clean. You may use essential oils; vaporized molecules of any essential oil will neutralise airborne bacteria, but some - such as tea tree, bergamot, lemon, pine and lavender - are particularly antiseptic. Use these in a fragrancer or room spray. Pine, lemon and tea tree can be used on a damp cloth to disinfect surfaces in the bathroom. Ensure that you have lots of towels and face washes and organic soaps, and cleansers in the bathroom. If you have a bath tub, use aromatic candles and flower floaters in the bathroom in safe corners.
- Hire a professional masseuse for an hour or two on the party day, and get the spa treatment right. Arrange for floor matresses (futon - Japanese mattress). An ordinary bed is not firm enough. Prepare the floor or surface with a large cotton sheet covered with a bath towel. You should also have to hand a pillow, a large wrap-around towel for the body, and a warm blanket or even a hot-water bottle by the feet.
