Create a Relaxing Home Spa Day on a Budget

A home spa day is not about expensive products. It is about slowing down and giving your body some attention. Here is a simple plan for a Sunday.

Morning: oil and warmth

• Warm two tablespoons of coconut or sesame oil.
• Massage your scalp for five minutes, then your arms, legs and feet.
• Leave it on for 30 minutes while you have breakfast.

Late morning: a kitchen ubtan

Mix 2 tablespoons besan, a pinch of haldi, a little curd or rose water. Apply on arms and legs, let it dry slightly and rub off gently before bathing. Do a patch test first if you have sensitive skin.

Afternoon: real rest

• A 20-minute nap, or lie down with your eyes closed and soft music
• Put your phone in another room

Evening: foot soak

Warm water, a spoon of rock salt and a few tulsi or neem leaves. Soak your feet for 15 minutes, then moisturise.

Set the mood

Clean one corner of your room, light a diya or candle, play instrumental music and keep a jug of water with lemon nearby.

When to call in the professionals
