ABOUT THE BOOK
Create a beauty spa within your home with simple and effective treatments. In this inspiring little book, author Jo Glanville-Blackburn encourages you to take care of yourself with simple rituals that you can build into your life day to day. Home Spa: Relax offers useful information for even those of us with only ten minutes to spare. Packed with creative ideas, practical information and healthful hints, Relax helps soothe your soul and revitalize your spirit.
Relax seeks to bring calm and serenity to your life with suggestions such as: meditate to clear your mind and focus on just one thing; mix two drops each of lavender and peppermint oil in 1/2 ounce of almond oil - rub into neck, temples, forehead and earlobes to clear your mind; listen to soothing music - music is cleansing and uplifting to the body.
"Reviewed by Carolyn Howard-Johnson, award-winning author of This is the Place and Harkening: A Collection of Stories Remembered
Ryland, Peters and Small publish little books of exquisite quality that make treasured gifts. Relax, by Jo Glanville-Blackburn, is a perfect example.
Ms. Glanville-Blackburn is an expert in her field. She was once the Beauty Director for Good Housekeeping Magazine (probably long after I worked in that same department.) This magazine tests the products it approves for advertising, so she is far more than a knowledgeable writer of all things healthy and beautiful.
Relax gives us tips on inexpesnive treatments for the tired bod and soul. Yes! Teabags of the chamomile variety for your eyes! Just pennies for an exquisite pick-me-up. And lots more, of course.
The beautiful photos were researched by Emily Westlake.

(Carolyn Howard-Johnson's first novel, This is the Place, has won eight awards. Harkening, a collection of stories, has won three. She was once an editorial assistant in the beauty department of Good Housekeeping Magazine.)"
