Working all the time is not healthy for either your body or your mind. We all need time to decompress, as it were, and the best way to do this is to get away from the daily grind that is our life in Ottawa from time to time. You are now asking yourself how to do this an where to go.

The best way to take a break from the stresses of work is to go to a weekend retreat at a spa. When you do this  you can pamper yourself with full body massages, mineral baths, beauty treatments, for the ladies, or sitting around in a sauna for a bit, for the men. Let us not forget the manicures and the pedicures for both.

If you do this right, and plan a get away to a spa outside of Ottawa, your whole weekend can be filled with nothing but methods designed to relax your tired muscles and clear your clouded mind. There may even be yoga or meditation sessions available. For women the possibilities move into the realm of facials, and hair colouring along with the finger and toenail work.

Understandably, running away for the weekend at a spa is an act of self indulgence, surely though you deserve to pamper yourself on the occasion of having to relax your body and recenter and clear your mind. Afterwards, you will feel invigorated and ready to take on the tasks of your life back in Ottawa.
