The Miracle of Miraval Resort and Spa

Let’s be honest girls, most of us count the hours, minutes, and seconds until the buses arrive to cart our little people off to school. Every little moment counts when they’re away and you might be wondering what you can do to rejuvenate yourself, especially after the summer break.

I heard my local mom army talking about spa breaks they had enjoyed, but quickly dismissed them. After all, a spa break sounded frivolous, expensive, and decidedly unlikely to be a “goer” with my unsympathetic and less-stressed-out other half. Within fifteen minutes, I had changed my opinion. Didn’t my children deserve a mom who was (and looked) peaceful and rested?

Miraval Spa – Rejuvenation Breaks For Moms
After conducting my own research on spas, I found this wonderful rejuvenation resort called Miraval. There are two exciting locations available: Tucson, Arizona, and Costa Rica. The focus of Miraval is to bring our hectic lives back into balance, and to help us moms to better accept ourselves, and promote our own good health. Miraval offers both traditional and non-traditional spa treatments, as well as some unique and life-altering experiences. Here are some of the highlights of a Miraval Spa rejuvenation break:

Miraval Customized Facial – The miracle-workers at Miraval will purify your skin using a tailor- made treatment. This purification will make your skin zing with freshness and vitality.

Outdoor Deep Tissue Massage – All of your knots, twists, and tension will quickly melt away, as this intensive treatment embraces your core.

Ayurvedic Therapy – A combination of a toxin-loosening massage, a cleansing therapy, and a warm-wrap will revitalize your body and mind, and more importantly, balance your energy.

Dare – Miraval offers you a chance to break out of your comfort zone, and leap off a 35 foot wall. If this doesn’t sound like your idea of fun, there is horseback riding, climbing, and desert challenges to tempt your fancy.

Breathe – If you need to put old issues to rest, the journaling workshop, the tea-tasting, and the yoga sessions will allow you to refresh your mind, strengthen your body, and eliminate stressful thoughts that are holding you back.

Create – Miraval offers a range of creative activities to allow you to learn and embrace new knowledge and skills. Photography sessions and art classes are available for everyone, regardless of current skill level and prior experience.

After a seemingly infinite summer session with our children, we moms deserve to refresh, rejuvenate, and regenerate our minds and bodies in peace. If your whole being feels frazzled, get ready for fall in style, and go on, treat yourself!
