As we’ve uncovered before, taking the time to soak in your spa daily will overall increase the quality of your health and lifestyle. It promotes relaxation and added health benefits that are sure to make your every day a little more stress-free. But a frequently asked question is “What’s the best time to soak?” The answer is all the time, but an early morning soak provides added health benefits in a variety of ways! 

Mental Preparedness 

We’ve all felt the stress of a hard work day or the feeling of not having enough hours in a day to balance, work, home, and social life. Taking time to yourself in the morning allows you to mentally prepare for the day and tasks at hand. It allows you to get the day started with relaxation, rather than the stress and the frustration of scrambling out the door too quickly. An early morning dip in your Hot Spring Spa will get you 

Blood Circulation 

For all those avid coffee drinkers out there, this could help take you down from three cups to one. An early morning soak promotes blood circulation and a higher heart rate. Therefore intensifying our caffeine and energy levels from the moment we start our day. It’s important to remember, too long of a soak could get you more relaxed, we recommend a 10-minute soak at 104 degrees to get the most out of your soak! 

Getting Active 

Not to take the place of an early morning workout, but if you’re feeling the ache and pain of the previous workout or days past, waking up and getting in a morning soak allows you to get your body moving in a slower, more relaxing way – all while still releasing those endorphins. Moving early in the morning helps set your metabolic state for the day and gets your body working early.
