We all get stressed, and it happens more often than we would like. Sometimes, the stress we feel can be hard to manage and the high levels of stress can build up - affecting our mind, body and soul. It is part and parcel of our being, but there are ways to combat it where you do not have to go above and beyond just to feel better.

According to Ayurveda, there are 3 energies that govern our bodies - the Dosha's; Vata, Pitta and Kapha. They influence and impact our overall wellbeing, and the imbalance of them is what causes the ailments you want solutions for. Fortunately, Ayurveda takes a holistic approach to stress, and provides natural, simple solutions with a range of remedies that you can implement on a daily basis. To make it even easier, Spa Ceylon has a range dedicated to de-stressing your mind, body and soul.

Ideally, you would want to start your day stress-free. When you wake up feeling good, it sets the tone for the whole day. Some things that you can do to ensure a stress-free day include;

- Abhyanga (a warm oil massage) followed by a shower
- Move your body; indulge in 15 minutes of Yoga
- Practice your breathwork or Pranayama
- Have a good breakfast
- Make a checklist or a to-do list for your day
- Listen to soothing music

One of the most common solutions for stress is meditation. It is believed that consistent meditation can have a great impact on your mind and body - bringing you immense calmness, and relaxation. Meditation does not need to be done in a quiet, dark room all the time but can be done when you have 5-10 minutes to yourself throughout the day. For example, if you are at work and need a break - take a break and give yourself the space to meditate to clear your mind.

With this in mind, you can rarely predict when stress is going to affect you most, especially during a work day. Unexpected things can happen on any given day that cause stress, and could leave you feeling overwhelmed.

Incorporating Spa Ceyon's De-Stress range into your daily routine is a simple and effective way to prioritize your wellbeing amidst the happenings of your day. You can use any of these products from the Spa Ceylon De-Stress range on-the-go;
