When Was The Last Time You Did Nothing?

When was the last time you surrendered to the tiredness or the urge to simply sit and let your mind wander.

‘Nothing’ is an interesting term; often paired with a feeling of guilt because there is always something that needs doing.

But, what if you don’t stop, what if you just keep pushing through… Surely taking a moment for yourself, to slow down, and ‘just be’ will put you in a much better space, mentally and physically, so you can handle everything that life throws your way.

When we talk about nothing, it could mean everything.

Doing nothing could be the catalyst that reignites your creative spark. The very thing that settles an anxious mind or the means to help you realign priorities and find perspective. Or it could be the moment your body needed to rest, recover and grow in strength.

We certainly think it’s about time you did a bit more of ‘nothing.’

Do nothing on your Hampshire spa break but unplug from the digital

If the thought of going away on a Hampshire spa break and shutting your phone away in a box for a weekend sounds good, we’ve got it sorted. Step away from distraction and step toward nurturing a healthier relationship with your tech. We’ll even provide the box so you can do just that – close the lid and walk away.

Do nothing at SenSpa but relax

Relaxing counts as nothing! As you step in to SenSpa’s reception you will feel the tension start to ease from head to toe. Breathe in the signature fragrance and sip a green tea as you peruse the treatment list or flip through a magazine beside the pool. Book a massage or body treatment or simply seek the sanctuary of SenSpa’s warming hydrotherapy pool, relaxation space, and thermal rooms.

Deep relaxation is nothing to feel guilty about.

SenSpa was ‘formed from an ethos of relaxation…a place of calm where water therapy, sensory experience and Thai tradition combine to renew and refresh the mind and body.’

Do nothing in your room but lie in and sip coffee.

If you are ruled by your alarm, it’s time to simply do nothing and surrender to sleep. Allow your body to realign with its natural rhythm and wake up slowly, when it is time.

Don’t feel like getting out of bed for breakfast. No problem, you can order breakfast to your room. Your room is your space, to rest and relax, any way that serves you.

Do nothing in the heart of the New Forest National Park but walk and wander…

Getaway from the everyday on a hotel break to reconnect with nature. Yield to the tranquillity of the forest, get outside and spend mornings walking through ancient woodland or afternoons wandering with great giants. Studies have shown that regular exposure to natural light and sunlight improves the duration and quality of sleep, helping the body to regulate hormones such as the sleep-inducing melatonin, which directly effects our circadian rhythm.

Forest bathing, or “Shinrin Yoku” is a practice of mindfulness in the forest, proven to reduce stress and anxiety, aid sleep, mood and even boost creativity. Our hotel can be your base for a peaceful, restorative break. Harness the calmness that only nature can give, and simply spend time outside, observing, listening and slowing the breath.

MINDFUL NEW FOREST WALKS

Do nothing at our Hampshire hotel, but support a charity at a fabulous Black Tie evening…

At our New Forest hotel, we are proud to support The Royal Southampton Yacht Club Trust, a local charity which provides on-the-water activities for disadvantaged young people, principally young carers in Hampshire. After a day of wonderful ‘nothing’, consider dressing up and spending an evening supporting a great charity. Tickets are still available to join the evening auction and disco, with all proceeds going to the RSYC Trust.

BOOK YOUR TICKET

There are many ways you can embrace guilt-free relaxation and some time doing ‘nothing’. As you can see nothing can be whatever you want it to be, as long as it serves you.

So, whatever type of escape you need now, we’ve got you, but the Unplugged Digital Detox Spa Break invites you to do it all; detox from the digital, reconnect with nature, realign mind and body and nourish your soul.
