STOP BEING SO SERIOUS

If a man insisted always on being serious, and never allowed himself a bit of fun and relaxation, he would go mad or become unstable without knowing it.

I love to laugh.  In fact, sometimes, I laugh so hard that I either gag so much that I puke or end up nearly peeing on myself.  We like to have fun at the spa too.  Yes it's a relaxing, quiet atmosphere, but look out when you aren't on the table.  We love a good joke so when you come in bring a joke with you or your sense of humor.  I like to think that's what makes us so different than most spas.  We Love to have fun no matter what we are doing.  

When you enter La Palmera Spa you should expect to experience relaxation, but also a good, positive feel.  As long as I can remember, having fun and laughing has been something that I want to experience as much as possible in life.  The day that I met Keith I was a sobbing hot mess going through a divorce and he was able to make me laugh until I gagged.  I knew then that he was a keeper :). 

When you stop laughing you stop living (at least temporarily).  Let some of that stuff that angers you go, let the pettiness of the perfectionism and faults that you point out in yourself and others go.  Yes, you can hold and fulfill high standards, but do not sacrifice fun and feeling light-hearted for it.    

Adulting, parenting, work, and all of the responsibilities that we have helps us lose that feeling of enjoyment, but it is so important to find it regularly.  

Today, I challenge you to stop taking life so seriously.  Settle in on the idea of this catch 22.  Without laughter there is no relaxing and without relaxing there is not laughter.  Without this you just might not realize that you are becoming unstable or mad :)  So Stop Being So Serious and Enjoy a Nice Cup of Coffee, Tea, or Wine.  Find a corny joke and Laugh (even if it's all by yourself).  Don't forget to share the joke with us when you come in for your relaxation therapy, hairapy, skinerapy, laugherapy session.
