#1: Decompress with a Spa Relaxation Pool Experience

Start by getting you and maybe your family into a calm, relaxed, present focused state. Create ambience with this 3-hour playlist for relaxing by the pool. Add a beverage, a book, and a chair, if that’s what puts you into a relaxed mindset. Maybe you want to try something different in your pool since you usually float, play, and swim. Take it a step further with an abbreviated version of Watsu Water Renewal Therapy, a great way to connect one on with with members of your family. Before you finish with your relaxation reset, take the time to be present focused. Look around your beautiful backyard. Inhale the scent of the grass and the flowers. Listen to the sounds of your swimming pool, the chirping of the birds, and the rustling of leaves by the wind. Take a deep breath and enjoy the moment.
