Sometimes you just need to soak
Relief from aches, pains and stress is just a bathtub away. (And the ESPA sale that can help you achieve nirvana!)
I walked my four miles this morning, and it was business as usual aside from “trespassing” in a neighboring community for a change of scenery. I came home and ate my medley of Greek yogurt, granola and berries before heading to Whole Foods (whatever, the shower can wait until later). As I was standing in the check-out line, my feet started to do that weird, excruciating cramping thing when your toes have a seizure and point in different directions—and it kept going for most of my ride home.
I tried everything in my power to stop the cramping while driving (i.e. pushing my left foot into the floor as hard as I could, bending it backward, taking off my sneaker and squeezing my toes, and drinking 28 ounces of water—BRB, I have to go to the bathroom). During this 10 minutes of hell, I was envisioning myself (or at least my feet) in a hot bath spiked with mineral salts because absolutely nothing else was working.
Once my feet calmed the F down (and I took that shower), I sat down at my desk and recalled the heads-up I got about ESPA’s new Fitness Bath Salts yesterday.
“Reward your body after a strenuous work out and recharge with these invigorating aromatic bathing crystals which harness an expertly selected blend of Deep Sea Magnesium and Dead Sea Salt. As you sink into the warm water, remineralizing Seaweed and skin-smoothing Oatmeal work alongside traditional herbal saviours, caring Arnica and Comfrey, and a stimulating aromatherapy blend of rejuvenating Eucalyptus, warming Clove Bud and soothing Lavender that helps to leave your body feeling restored.”
Yes, yes, yes! And of course these will come in handy the next time I do a Mirror workout that makes it impossible to walk down the stairs for a few days.
