If you have yet opened your heart and life to Jesus, this is also the perfect time to do so for He wants to come in and help you manage your stressful situation for He says, Look, I am knocking on the door and if anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him. (Revelations 3:20)

So open your heart and life to Jesus by turning away from your sins and declaring that Jesus is Lord and believing that God raised Him from the dead and you will be saved. (Romans 10:9) Let Him in and He will give you His peace for He assures us that in Him we may have peace but in the world we will have tribulation. (John 16:33)

Up the ante by adding a few scoops of scented bath salts and bath oils with relaxing lavender essential oils to the bath water to calm tense minds and wash way dirt and distress.

CHRISTIAN HOME SPA PARTY DAY ACTIVITIES PART 1 JOURNALLING

Journalling is a very flexible Home Spa Day activity as you can journal while luxuriating in you languid bath or while hanging on a hammock or you can schedule a specific time to sit and write. There are seven things you can do during your journalling time. These include:

1. Pinpoint your specific stressors so that you can manage them and pray over them more effectively. Determine if your stress springs from an internal source such as your thoughts and behavior or if it is an external one such as your boss or school.

2. Jot down your feelings writing without censoring as it is very effective catharsis. Write until you feel the oppressive weight of unmentionable hurts lifting from your chest.

3. Unburden yourself by casting all you cares upon Jesus because He cares for you. (1 Peter 5: 6-7) Cast the burdens that have lifted of your chest to Him in prayer and ask Him to intervene even in those which you have not dislodged from your life. 

4. Spend time consciously forgiving the people who are stressing you and give them to God as you release them from your mind so that you can move forward with your life.

5. Count your blessings on paper by reminding yourself of all the great things that God has done for you in the past week, month, year, decade and let these activities serve as proof that He is still able to do other great things for you regardless of your present situation.

6. Write God's purpose for your life and then ponder if you are fulfilling it. If you don’t know your life’s purpose, recognize that it involves serving others by doing something that you love while using your gifts and talents.

7. Keep your journal close by throughout your spa day so that you can jot down any retreat insights that will enter your mind as the tensions leaves.
