Stress and the City

Ajay Naidu and Kory Bassett de-stressing in fat mu designed Loins of Punjab Presents with thanks to Manish Acharya for photo.

Mumbai....The Maximum City.... maximum stress too...I tell you!!

What a week I've had...mon dieu! I've realised how very important it is to take time out for ourselves from our hectic lives and to learn to relax and de- stress in this city to stay productive.....AND SANE !...

... and what better way than to go and pamper yourself...!.. for some that may be retail therapy... for others an indulgent meal...but for me its spending time at a spa and getting wonderful relaxing facials and body massages...

Like a wise friend said to me ... 'ten years from now you can always buy a new dress but you can't buy a new face!' wise words I tell you... some might beg to differ... but for those of us 'oo want to grow old gracefully we better start looking after ourselves and invest in our skins and our faces while we still can......

... and so I have discovered a few places that 'elp me do this and I love to visit when I can....

Venu's Hair and Skin centre in Bandra has lovely facials and hair treatments with something for everyone... whether its a simple clean up, or anti -ageing treatment or working on stressed skin and dark circles.. or even if you just want to glow and look gorgoeous for your 'ot date that's around the corner.. she's the woman for you... with up to date techniques, equipment and products from Europe, America and Canada... you will be a satisfied customer... Mulain is a loyal follower and sends many of 'is friends there...

If you 'ave something of an 'ippy in you and want something more natural- I have recently discovered and loved Nirmal Herbal. They use 100% natural products- things you can eat!.. I kid you not... freshly made and ground before going on to your face, body and hair - and the massages ... mmmm.. makes me want to book another appointment right away....

From wheatgerm and saffron facials to oatmeal and aloe vera packs .. the list goes on and on.. and sooo fresh .. its lo-ovely... just the way mother nature intended...

A few of my other favourite places to relax are The Spa at the Grand Hyatt http://mumbai.regency.hyatt.com/hyatt/pure/spas/index.jsp the SVA spa in juhu http://www.svaspasalon.com/home.html - the hot stone massage there is highly recommended...

That's it from me... but if any of you have any little hideouts or places you love that you would like to share with us please feel free to write and tell us .. am sure my friends... my mu's and I would love to give it a try...

Until then, look after yourselves my cheries and think about spoiling yourself so you can feel all fresh, relaxed and rejuvinated to face this maximum city again and again...

I'm off to put my saffron mask on...
