Motherhood comes with many challenges; the road quite often feels like an uphill battle that is deeply rooted in love. The days are long, but the years are short. Motherhood isn’t just hard because our children whine or cry, it’s hard because we are constantly second guessing ourselves- are we enough?  Are we the best mother to our children? Are we who they need us to be? Mothers often feel overwhelmed, but it isn’t simply because the days are tiresome, it’s more often because we know these moments are fleeting.  Each night we lay our sweet babies down, and each morning they wake up a day older.  No matter how great our frustrations feel, it is our love that both overwhelms and overflows our hearts.

That is why we need days of mental rejuvenation, days that not only allow us a few hours of time to ourselves but a space to find quiet to silence our minds. Everything needs a reboot from time to time, a peaceful reawakening. It is time for mothers to take off the many hats they wear each day and retreat into a beautiful oasis.  It is time for a day at the spa.

Celebrating Mother’s Day at a spa is an opportunity to reflect, relax and enjoy the world around you in luxury. If the Mom in your life is a locavore, finding a spa that will indulge her in the best of the city you live in is an experience she’ll love. Finding hidden gems in your hometown is the ideal way to show her how much thought you put into selecting the perfect spa experience, just for her

After a deep exfoliation, she is treated to a Milk and Honey body butter massage to help keep the skin moisturized.

The historic Oxford Club has pulled out all the stops in creating an oasis of calm in the heart of the city. Guests to the spa can enjoy the access to the top of the line fitness center before their service and unwind in the steam room prior to heading up to the lounge to wait for her masseuse. Once she has fully unwound in the calming lounge she’ll head back to the treatment room where the scrub will be applied liberally across her skin, removing all signs of the winter weather. Following the sugar exfoliation, warm towels are applied to open the pores and remove the scrub with a gentle massage. Before wrapping up the treatment, the skin is treated to a full application of Milk & Honey Body Butter.

Before heading back to the real world, enjoy a chef-prepared Bee Pollen smoothie and Panna Cottata made from Chia Seeds and Coconut Milk. Bee Pollen is rich in vitamins and can help lower seasonal allergies. With fresh local berries and a topping of raw local honeycomb, she’ll feel fully indulged from the inside and out. As a memento from her experience, she can take home her own tube of Bee Lip Balm, allowing her to enjoy a quick mental trip to the spa on a daily basis.

Only by taking care of herself can mom truly take care of everyone else. A spa day is the perfect opportunity for mom to relax, reflect, and unwind. After all, a mom properly pampered can properly pamper everyone else. Give the Mom in your life the gift of rejuvenation this Mother’s Day.
