AN AT HOME MINI SPA DAY
OMG LADIES AND GENTLEMEN I JUST HAVE TO SHARE THIS WITH YOU. HOPEFULLY IT WILL HELP SOMEONE OR PROVIDE INSPIRATION ON WHAT TO DO.IT SURE HELPED ME.
SO I WAS LAYING IN BED WITH IC PAIN (WITH A COLD AND SINUS PROBLEM ON TOP OF IT ALL)TODAY USING MY USUAL REMEDY MR HEATING PAD ALL THE WHILE STRESSING OVER AND PLANNING MY ORLANDO JULY 4TH TRIP--MY FIRST TRIP EVER WITH IC.I'M EXCITED ABOUT IT BUT IM IN FULL-ON PLANNING MODE. I USUALLY DONT PLAN TRIPS OUT. ANYWAY .USUALLY HEAT WORKS FOR MY PAIN.TODAY MY PAIN JUST WASNT HAVIN IT. IT HATED HEAT.SO WHEN THE HEATING PAD FAILS,I USUALLY TAKE A STEAMING HOT BATH WITH MY EPSOM SALTS.WELL I DECIDED TO SWITCH IT UP A BIT AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS.
I HATE THE COLD BUT DECIDED TO BRAVE A COLD (NOT ICE COLD) BATH.FIRST I CLEANSED MY FACE REALLY GOOD,PUT ON A QUEEN HELENE MINT JULEP FACE MASK.RAN THE TUB AND PUT MY PEPPERMINT EPSOM SALTS IN THERE,LIT A CANDLE,TURNED ON MY BATHROOM HEATER SO I WOULDNT GET TOO COLD IN THE BATH,SET UP THE IPOD WITH SOME RELAXING TUNES,BREWED SOME BIGELOW RASPBERRY TEA (MY NEW FAV) AND SAT IN THERE TO READ THE BETTER BLADDER BOOK. I PRACTICED THE DEEP BREATHING TECHNIQUES AND DID A FEW STRETCHES IN AND OUT THE TUB. USED TONER TO GET THE GREEN MASK OFF MY FACE (MY BOYFRIEND USED TO ALWAYS SAY I LOOKED LIKE A SPACE CREATURE W/ THAT MASK ON LOL) AND PUT ON MY FAVORITE MOISTURIZER.
THE BETTER BLADDER BOOK IS NOW MY NEW FAV IC BOOK. I DIDNT LIKE IT WHEN I READ IT THE FIRST TIME CUZ I THOUGHT IT WAS TOO DETAILED AND OVERWHELMINGLY LONG TO READ BUT DETAILED IS EXACTLY WHAT I NEED FOR MY IC NOW.I SAT IN THERE FOR MAYBE 30 MINUTES OR LESS AND FELT SO MUCH BETTER. MY PAIN IS GONE AND I AM EMOTIONALLY AT PEACE.
RIGHT AFTER THE BATH..PERFECT TIMING.. THERE WAS A THUNDERSTORM SO I CALMLY SAT BY THE HEATER AND LISTENED TO THE RAIN AND THUNDER. I RECOMMEND EVERYONE HERE (ESPECIALLY THOSE WITH CHILDREN OR FEEL NOTHING IS WORKING FOR THEIR IC AND ARE DISCOURAGED) TO DO THIS AT LEAST ONCE WHEN YOURE IN PAIN AND/OR STRESSED AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS. DEVELOP YOUR OWN MINI-SPA SESSION AND LET EVERYTHING GO!
