Virtual Spa Days Are A Reality

The speed at which technology evolves is quite scary. It seems like only yesterday that we first got TVs and music players, now everything is HD, flat screen, digital and MP4. A great deal of the newest technology we see enter the market has the intention of pounding our senses into oblivion with more intense images, louder sounds and faster movement. However, there has been a recent creation that intends make things a little quieter, remove all our stresses and even help us heal.

The virtual spa is a online computer program that aims to simulate the experience of being in a health spa. Made by a company in the UK called Heart Media, spa goes use a media headset to get surround sound and wrap around images. You can take a walk around all the facilities that the spa has to offer and even create new areas just for yourself. You can plug your own selection of relaxing music into the game and even book in for a relaxing body polish and massage if you’d like. The game also comes with a vibration pad that attaches to your chair and simulates the feeling of having various different treatments.The game is constantly evolving and new activities such as tennis, and pool are being added all the time.

The developers claim that using the virtual spa game for 30 minutes will bring down your resting heart rate by up to 20%. They hope to aim the product as people who suffer from stress or anxiety or who love spa days but don’t necessarily have the money to pay for them frequently. They hope that once the game takes off they will be able to start sending out actual skin care products to gamers so that can complete that spa experience without leaving the house

Review Great Golf Self Hypnosis Download from Barrie St John

I first became aware of the ‘Great Golf’ self hypnosis download by Barrie St John when I noticed a huge amount of online searches being made for this particular title. I purchased the Great Golf hypnosis download myself so that I could make a full and accurate review from a low handicap golfer’s point of view.

I’m a great believer in the golfing mind game and ALWAYS use self hypnosis techniques both before and during my matches.

Barrie has a very soft, deep, relaxing voice with a slight Yorkshire accent which is very comforting. His voice took me into a totally relaxed state very quickly and I relaxed comfortably into my armchair.He asks you to start counting down backwards from 300 but as usual, I could only get to about 280 before drifting off into a lovely relaxed, peaceful state.

The creativity of your unconscious mind is fully utilised by golf hypnosis downloads and you feel the benefit of a calm state more and more when you play the game you love.

When Barrie softly says ‘ there is nowhere you have to be, nobody needs anything, the time is yours, not a care in the world, nothing at all for you to do except to relax and let go’  it takes you further into a completely relaxed trance like state and clears your unconscious mind for the positive golf thoughts and suggestions that are about to follow.

The choice of music is excellent and the 3D effects of Barrie’s voice tracks are extremely professional which is exactly what one would expect from someone who has an active hypnotherapy practise on Harley Street, London.

The relaxation stage lasts for approximately 12 minutes by which time your unconscious mind is in a perfect state for the golfing part of the hypnosis session.

You may be in such a wonderful and refreshing trance that you may not notice as Barrie starts to focus on suggesting phrases and images that encourage your subconscious mind to start making major changes to the way you play golf. 

Barrie John’s starting focus is about the importance of having rhythm in your golf game, commonly known as being ‘in the zone’.  I can easily relate to this because when I think back to all the times when I came in with  good scores, the overall feeling was one of ‘just letting it flow and hitting the ball easily and effortlessly ‘ and how ‘right’ everything felt with my swing.

 That all important but so elusive Rhythm !

Barrie  offers a suggestion for disposing of distracting thoughts that come to your mind when you play golf,’ imagine a bin by the tee where you can drop all your distracting thoughts before you strike the ball’.

There is also a section on putting technique where you picture long putts and putting to a six feet circle around the hole where you want to leave your ball to go down in 2 putts, visualising the path you want the ball to take.
 
The next section leads you to imagine you are in the body of a player you admire, feeling how it feels to swing like they do and seeing shots through their eyes.

You’re then led to mentally practice what you have learnt, feeling how much better things feel, noticing how much more confident you are and how much you are looking forward to your next round of golf.

All in all, I enjoyed the session and look forward to using it again as I know that the more I use it I will be able to use my imagination more vividly and as with all hypnosis sessions the effects will be cumulative in my subconscious mind and as Barrie says ‘ will help me to produce positive and profound changes to my golf game.’

The recording is 24 minutes long and in my mind, it is a very creative 24 minutes and undoubtedly will bring great benefits to your mental game of golf.

Relax With The Help Of Back Massager

You won’t find many things that are good as back massager when it comes to stress removal. You can enjoy in a massage at a gym or a spa, but you will find them to be pricey. But it is much better to invest in a hand held massager that will cost you exactly the same. That way, you will have hours of fine massages at home. I agree that a back massager may not give the benefits of a full hand massage, but it will definitely help you get rid of all those knots from your back and remove the stress you’ve been gathering all day long.

It’s easy to find a handheld massager in some of the stores near your home, and using one of them will be even easier. Muscle relaxation and knots removal will be easy, you only need few batteries to power up those hard rubber nodules and make some vibrations. In case you want to treat your muscles the best way possible, get a model that has heat massage available.

In case there is some pain or even a knot in your back, use a massager against it and after 10 minutes the vibration will remove it all. Any muscle that you can reach can be treated with personal massager, but if you can’t reach it, get someone to do it for you. You can make any day a fantastic day to relieve stress.

Another option is to get a massage chair so you can traet your legs and your back. A full body massage chair typically has a group of rollers installed into the back of the chair that will roll along your spine as well as hard rubber nodes to pressurize certain areas of your back. You will find some models that have foot and calf massager with them so you can do a bit more with them.

You will find different programs and settings on massage chairs so you can have several different massage types. We use different massage types to relax before we go to bed, refresh ourselves in the morning and eliminate stress. With your own massage chair it is possible to custom-design the program that works best for you.
