Are you desperate for a bit of a getaway but can’t find anyone to go with? Maybe all your friends are busy with the kids, or simply too involved at work to take more than a couple days off. Whatever the reason, it doesn’t have to mean that you can’t go on your own.
I can already tell what you’re thinking. Ugh, on my own? No one to laugh with and talk to? What ever will I do? Being able to do things like spa breaks on your own is a sign of maturity. It shows you do not care what others think, and you’re dependent on no one but yourself. Plus you don’t have to worry about sorting a spa day that’s perfect for them as well! Bonus!
Spa Trips Are Empowering
What’s more empowering than deciding to do that spa trip you’ve been wanting to do, by yourself, in spite of everyone? You’re reliant on nobody but yourself, and you don’t need anyone’s approval. It’s liberating and empowering, and maybe a little scary, but you’ll be incredibly glad you did it.
There’s not enough focus nowadays on the value and strength inherent in doing things by yourself. Learning to be content and self-reliant is an incredibly attractive trait. Nobody likes needy people, but nevertheless, our society has a very limited focus on the joys and successes of solitude.
Try it out, go for a spa trip by yourself, for a couple days, and tell me you don’t feel stronger, happier and better for it.
It’s All About You
Forget having to look after or cater to anyone else, this trip is literally all about you. You choose where you’re going, what kind of spa, what treatments you’re going to be enjoying. There are absolutely zero compromises. It’s the spa retreat you’d always wanted.
Imagine if you were with your slightly-too-sporty mate? They’d be demanding jogging and sports treatments while you wanted to enjoy your fourth-hour long massage. Or imagine if you went with your partner, he might want a slightly more macho spa experience, versus your pampering-centric ideal. Going on your own is the only sure path to making sure you get everything you want out of a spa trip.
It’s Utterly Luxurious
There’s absolutely no greater luxury than being totally beholden to nobody. Being able to eat as much as you like, or spend as much money as you like, free from judgement or compromise is the most luxurious thing in the world.
And really, aren’t spa trips all about luxury and extravagance? Why do we choose gorgeous country halls, or spectacular city hotels if not? It’s all about the beauty, extravagance and luxury of it all. You want the most enjoyment out of your spa trip, right? Go alone, it’s the best way to get it.
It’s Cheaper than You Might Think
The best thing about going by yourself is that you can really keep a tight handle on the budget. By knowing what you will and won’t accept, you can keep stuff like travel to an absolute minimal budget. This means that overall, your trip will end up costing less.
That’s not the only way you can end up saving money. If you explore all the various coupon and deal options available online, you can end up saving an absolute fortune. Who says a quality spa trip has to cost an arm and a leg?
If you’re going by yourself you can be much more flexible too, which means you can get great last minute deals on travel and accommodation. This could prove to be the ultimate low-cost, high-enjoyment getaway!
