5 ways to relax at home
Aromatherapy has been accompanying people since ancient times. At the Beauty Embassy, we harness the immense power of essential oils during massages and rituals, and encourage you to use them in the comfort of your own home. Find time for yourself and take a warm relaxing bath using essential oils. This will allow your muscles to relax, and the oils will calm your mind. Choose essential oils with relaxing properties for your bath, such as lavender (besides relaxation, it also helps with insomnia), yuzu (calms the central nervous system, has relaxing and anti-anxiety effects), jasmine (relaxing, and also has antiseptic, analgesic, and anti-inflammatory properties), or geranium, which, in addition to its relaxing properties, is also anti-cellulite.

Contrary to popular belief, to relax, you don't have to give up physical exertion. On the contrary! Endorphins released during exercise trigger a wave of positive feelings and relax the mind. Yoga is excellent for finding inner balance, and online classes allow you to benefit from professional training without leaving your home. Have you heard of hormonal yoga? It's the perfect time to try it out :)
Make sure to find time for yourself and take care of your skin and hair. Perhaps appearance is not the most important thing in life, but home care treatments, besides the obvious improvement in the condition of our skin and hair, have two very important aspects: the better we look, the better we feel, and also, the care activities themselves are extremely relaxing and allow us to focus on current tasks, not on daily stress. At the Beauty Embassy in Warsaw, we have prepared sets of professional cosmetics for home care just for you. Which ones do you need the most?
Allow yourself to be bored! In our daily rush, there is no time for boredom. The constant need for development, work, and the general race against time do not allow us to be bored. And yet, it is worth slowing down sometimes and just do "nothing." Lie down, rest, think about something pleasant. Allegedly, the most creative ideas in history were born out of boredom. When was the last time you were bored?
Breath is life. It allows all cells in the body to function properly. Try to relax and focus on your own breath at least once. Feel it filling your lungs. Try to start the breath from your abdomen and make it smooth and steady. It may be slightly slower than your daily breath. If you want to work more on your breath, try methods like the Wim Hof method or other systems.
