How a Spa Trip Can Boost Your Confidence

One of the most attractive qualities a person can have, in almost every sense, is confidence. That reassurance that they know they’re wanted, they’re attractive, they’re interesting. It’s incredibly sexy, and seductive, to see someone who’s properly confident, and unafraid to be themselves.

But where does it come from? I was always told to fake it till I make it, but that’s not always the easiest path, and there’s a million situations where it’s almost impossible to be the outgoing, confident individual you want to be.

So we could all use a little confidence crutch now and then. A spa break makes for a perfect booster to our confidence.

Stress is Almost the Opposite of Confidence…

You know what’s not conducive to feeling confident and attractive? Feeling like your head is exploding with a million things you need to get done, and being totally riddled with tension and taught muscles.

Stress isn’t just bad for you mentally, making you cranky, unfriendly and decidedly unconfident, it’s also terrible for you physically. You can expect a real lack of decent sleep, as well as painful tension in your muscles and body.Spa Deals

Stress is just bad news full stop really. Long term, you can expect high blood pressure, increased risk of heart disease, weight gain, premature aging, and an absolute litany of other problems. It’s not good for you, and if you’re a major sufferer, you need to deal with it. It weighs you down.

Which all means that when you reduce or get rid of stress, you can sleep better, allowing that beauty sleep to really enhance you. When you’re feeling relaxed it shines through, and feeling relaxed is really the core of confidence.

A lack of confidence, in your looks, personality, whatever is really just a form of anxiety in functionality. It’s just a new kind of tension that inhibits your innate ability to be fun, interesting and engaging, by making you double guess yourself constantly, and wonder how you’re being perceived.

If you take away other forms of stress, anxiety and tension which are weighing on you, you’ll find it much easier to move past any other confidence issues which you might have otherwise.

What’s the cure then? What are we to do? For all the teachers, nurses, parents and other high pressure, stressed individuals, I present; The Spa Break. Not only are you getting away from your kids, career or issues for a couple of days, you’re enjoying luxury treatments specifically designed to relax you.

You can detox, eat healthy, train a little, and enjoy treatments like sauna and massage, all in a spectacularly beautiful location of your choice. It’s the ultimate stress-buster, and what’s more, research has shown that going on holiday for even a couple of days has a positive effect on your mental state for up to a month after.

You want to feel more confident? Destress, and be comfortable and relaxed.

Beautify Yourself

Now, I know everyone says that confidence should come from within, and it should be born of self-love, reliance and acceptance, but isn’t it easier to just enjoy a couple of great beautifying treatments, and know that right now, in this instant, you look fantastic?

Feeling unattractive isn’t great when it comes to confidence. Everyone’s got some feature or other they turn away from the camera when its picture time, and our appearance has a big impact on our overall mental state and confidence.

That’s why enjoying beautifying treatments, such as manicure, pedicure, skin treatments, vitamin face masks and tons of others at a great spa location is always going to make you feel more confident. You know you look gorgeous, and that’s going to impact the way you interact with the world.

Feel Healthier

 Imagine yourself hungover, or just getting over a dire flu, you’re tired, unfocused and full of toxins and junk food. Because that’s what we do when we feel bad, we eat terribly, causing a kind of cycle that leaves us feeling ill and unhealthy.

Getting away from all that, the junk food, the booze, and putting yourself somewhere tranquil with fresh air and relaxing treatments can see you feeling much healthier in no time at all. The healthier and stronger you feel, the more confident you’re going to be in general.

Get in Better Shape

 Spa breaks are also fabulous for getting into shape. Whether you’ve been dieting for weeks, or are training hard towards a goal, a weekend at a great spa location, utilising amazing, protein-rich, healthy foods, as well as sports massage and a top-notch spa gym, can make all the difference when it comes to keeping it all up, and really hitting those goals.

We live in dire times when it comes to fitness. There are a lot of people overweight, and times have never been worse for self-esteem and body image, what with social media and self-comparison rampant. Achieving the body you want isn’t just a case of accepting what you’ve been given. It’s learning to feel empowered that you can change if you want to.

It’s not about conforming to some societal norm, it’s about conforming to what you expect from yourself, and a couple of days at a gym can help you along on that particularly rocky path.

Get Naked in Front of a Masseuse

 You know what’s amazing for confidence? Getting naked in front of a professional. Why you might ask? Because you know for a fact that they’ll have seen people both more attractive and less than you, and that your appearance doesn’t actually matter.

It’s being close to or completely naked in front of a stranger, and bearing all, which forces you to re-evaluate how important all this obsession about how we look is. What it comes down to is that it’s all pretty trivial, and ultimately meaningless.

Getting naked in front of a stranger, even a qualified masseuse, takes confidence, and once you’ve done it, you will feel stronger and more confident than before. That’s just another benefit of a great spa weekend. Go forth and be confident!
