What's the link? Happy women have lower levels of the stress hormone cortisol which means less inflammatory proteins, both thought to play a role in serious health conditions.
Bottom line? Find your own hair and beauty bliss or do things that make you feel happy to reduce the risk of cancer and other health woes.
Some suggested things to make you happy? Consider some of the options below:
1. Treat yourself to a scalp massage with scented hot oils. A relaxed scalp provide a feeling of bliss and will instantly reduce stress. Even better, trade off with your loved one so that you both feel relaxed together.
2. Indulge in a professional salon shampoo and blow out. Studies have shown people feel less stress when they feel their hair looks great. If budget is a concern, opt for a inexpensive treatment at the local cosmo college or look for special coupon deals.
3. Check into local massage schools and volunteer to be a teaching subject so that you can enjoy the benefits of massage at a reduced cost over regular spas.
4. Trade off a mani-pedi with a best friend. You can enjoy each other's company at the same as getting nail treats.
5. Set up a special phone date with one of your favorite people that you have a hard time connecting with.
6. Take a relaxing bubble bath. Listen to soothing music and light aromatherapy infused candles.
7. Schedule a special weekend date with your sweetie. Leave your cell and notebook locked up.
8. Sneak off for a budget movie matinee. Nothing helps reduce stress than laughter and entertainment.
9. Take a walk and enjoy the beauty of nature. Stop and smell the flowers (if you live in a warm climate) or build a snowperson (if you live in a cold climate).
Whether any of the suggestions above appeal to you or not, the key is to find affordable treats that make you feel relaxed, special and blissed out.Please follow us on Twitter at: https://Twitter.com/HairBoutique.
