As we enter our Total wellness 3rd quarter campaign, we begin thinking about what “Total Wellness” truly means. Planet Beach has defined total wellness as a condition in which you are physically, mentally and spiritually fit. 
A lot more than physical fitness goes into feeling your best. Don’t get us wrong though, putting your body in its utmost shape, dieting, and pushing yourself as hard as you can is the true path to achieving physical goals. The most important aspect of “Total Wellness” is the ability to smile from within and feel absolutely wonderful! This is what our third quarter is all about! Whatever it takes, whatever you do, do it well, take good care of yourself, and start focusing on your Total Wellness goals.
Here are some great Total Wellness Tips to follow:
Physical Activity:
Staying in shape will always be highly recommended to boost your energy and release those endorphins to make you smile nice and wide! What are your fitness goals this summer? Write them down and look at them everyday. Stay on track with those fitness goals and when you reach them cross them out one by one. Believe me, it feels great to just simply cross something off a list.
Relaxation:
Block out 15 minutes of your day everyday. Find a quiet place, leave your phone, stress, and anything else bothering you at the door! Slowly take big, deep breaths, inhaling from your mouth and out through your nose. Visually picture yourself erasing, letting go, and severing the stress that has either built up during the day or that has been bothering you. Finding this time and space to just focus on yourself is something we should all do everyday. You will be surprised to find how much better you will feel once you do this.
Pampering:
What is Total Wellness without pampering!? You deserve it! Get a super relaxing massage, this is just a no-brainer!
Spread It:
Share your positive energy with your friends and family! When you feel like a million bucks, everyone else around you also feels like a million bucks too : )
With Planet Beach’s Total Wellness Products and Services, you will absolutely feel and look your very best.

Lately we have been on a history kick. As Planet Beach continues through it’s Skincare Campaign we find it really inspirational to think about how far we have come with beauty and skincare treatments. It is also really interesting to find out things that appear very common to us have actually been used in the same exact ways for thousands of years. Read below for some great ancient Greek and Egyptian skincare treatments still used today!
There are actually many things we still use today that the ancient Greeks and Egyptians used for skincare treatments, but there are definitely a few that stand out the most. I’m sure you are aware that there are thousands of new skincare products, botox, light therapy, and even chemical peels out there, but the idea of these things have all started from the ancient Greek and Egyptian civilizations.
Salt
Both the Ancient Egyptian and Ancient Greeks understood the importance of exfoliation and used salt to rejuvenate their skin. They used natural products to achieve a youthful look. We have followed in the footsteps of our ancestors and still use abrasives to get rid of dead skin cells, including many of Planet Beach’s exfoliators!
Clay
Ancient civilizations regularly used clay to heal diseased or damaged skin as they discovered it had many healing properties. Staying clean was incredibly important to the Egyptians who would often mix clay, ash and oil together to form soap. This mixture was often scented and would help them smell nice despite the heat of the sun which caused them to sweat. The ancients used clay to smoothe fine lines and draw out any impurities just like Planet Beach’s Oil Control Clay Mask!
Olive oil
Olive oil has been considered sacred for many years and was used to anoint the kings and athletes of Greece. It was often referred to as “liquid gold” and was used by the Ancient Greeks as a moisturizer and a natural sunscreen. There are many olive based skincare products today! Olive oil is perfect for people allergic to harsh chemicals and is often used to revitalize and soften the hair and skin.
Frankincense
Egyptian women used to use frankincense to calm stretch marks caused by pregnancy. While frankincense might seem like an unusual product to use on your skin its healing properties are still recognized today. This natural remedy is used in many modern products and is thought to be able to clear up sores.
Almond oil
Almond oil was found in many Egyptian products and was used throughout the classes. Both pharaohs and their workers used to rub this natural ingredient into their skin to keep them looking young. The vitamin E found in almonds worked to rid draw out harmful toxins and rid the body of free radicals. Almond oil is still found in many new cosmetics!
Looking good and feeling great is not a new development! We have always found ways to feel great about ourselves and always will! Let Planet Beach lead you into the future and take you to the past with our natural products and phenomenal, intelligent skincare services that make you look and feel your very best : )
The next time you buy skincare products, just give a big thank you to those ancient Greek and Egyptians!

It is very hard to pin point exactly where the word “spa” comes from, but the two main theories are that the word “spa” is an acronym for the Latin phrase, “salus per aquae,” or “health through water.” Some argue that the origin of the word “spa” comes from the Belgian town of Spa, known since Roman times for its baths. The Belgian town, Spa, was so prominent as a place to be restored and pampered that the english meaning of “Spa” is argued to originate there.
For thousands of years, us humans, have always found reasons to relax, renew, and glow! The practice of bathing in hot springs and mineral waters dates at least to the Babylonians and Greeks, and maybe even dating further back.
Modern spas have their roots in ancient towns famed for the healing powers of their mineral waters and hot springs. Travelers would come to “take the waters” and restore their health.
The United States became a center of spa innovation beginning in the 1850s, when New York’s Saratoga Springs emerged as a fashionable retreat for the rich and famous ranging from Edgar Allan Poe to Franklin Delano Roosevelt. The first day spa, Manhattan’s Red Door Salon, was introduced by Elizabeth Arden in 1910, offering manicures, facials and the signature “Arden Wax.” A second-generation American, Deborah Szekely, created the first destination spa, Rancho La Puerta, located just south of the border in Baja California. In 1958, Szekely also opened the pioneering Golden Door spa in California, offering individualized weight loss and fitness programs. 
With more and more people turning to spas for total skincare, wellness, and stress relief goals the demands for an affordable, monthly membership, self automated spa are unrivaled by Planet Beach, the world’s largest automated spa franchise!
Planet Beach understands these very important skincare, wellness, and stress relief needs. With products and services that are here to make you feel your very best, Planet Beach smiles every day about making you feel your very best!

Here at Planet Beach we understand the intricacies, the complexities, the wonders found within every person and the need to address and help everyone. We are all different people and all have our own stories. We are here to provide every individual with the opportunity to relax, let go, and find yourself a comfortable, meditative place. With our relaxation services provided, we understand the importance of a healthy mind and soul.
The art of letting go is a complex one. Most of the time we are probably well aware of what is causing problems, but adressing them and putting the first step forward is the hardest and most important part! Instead of holding onto the things that make us unhappy or cause suffering, let it go!
Here are some excellent tips on letting go and living a healthier life:
Give up your need to always be right: There are so many of us who can’t stand the idea of being wrong – wanting to always be right – even at the risk of ending great relationships or causing a great deal of stress and pain, for us and for others. It’s just not worth it. Whenever you feel the ‘urgent’ need to jump into a fight over who is right and who is wrong, ask yourself this question: “Would I rather be right, or would I rather be kind?” Wayne Dyer.
Give up your need for control: Be willing to give up your need to always control everything that happens to you and around you – situations, events, people, etc. Whether they are loved ones, coworkers, or just strangers you meet on the street – just allow them to be. Allow everything and everyone to be just as they are and you will see how much better will that make you feel.
“By letting it go it all gets done. The world is won by those who let it go. But when you try and try. The world is beyond winning.” Lao Tzu
Give up your self-defeating self-talk: Oh my. How many people are hurting themselves because of their negative, polluted and repetitive self-defeating mindset? Don’t believe everything that your mind is telling you – especially if it’s negative and self-defeating. You are better than that.
“The mind is a superb instrument if used rightly. Used wrongly, however, it becomes very destructive.” Eckhart Tolle
Give up complaining: Give up your constant need to complain about those many things – people, situations, events that make you unhappy, sad and depressed. Nobody can make you unhappy, no situation can make you sad or miserable unless you allow it to. It’s not the situation that triggers those feelings in you, but how you choose to look at it. Never underestimate the power of positive thinking.
Give up your resistance to change: Change is good. Change will help you move from A to B. Change will help you make improvements in your life and also the lives of those around you. Follow your bliss, embrace change – don’t resist it.
“Follow your bliss and the universe will open doors for you where there were only walls” Joseph Campbell
Give up the past: I know, I know. It’s hard. Especially when the past looks so much better than the present and the future looks so frightening, but you have to take into consideration the fact that the present moment is all you have and all you will ever have. The past you are now longing for – the past that you are now dreaming about – was ignored by you when it was present. Stop deluding yourself. Be present in everything you do and enjoy life. After all life is a journey not a destination. Have a clear vision for the future, prepare yourself, but always be present in the now.
Give up attachment: This is a concept that, for most of us is so hard to grasp and I have to tell you that it was for me too, (it still is) but it’s not something impossible. You get better and better at with time and practice. The moment you detach yourself from all things, (and that doesn’t mean you give up your love for them – because love and attachment have nothing to do with one another, attachment comes from a place of fear, while love… well, real love is pure, kind, and self less, where there is love there can’t be fear, and because of that, attachment and love cannot coexist) you become so peaceful, so tolerant, so kind, and so serene. You will get to a place where you will be able to understand all things without even trying. A state beyond words.
Give up living your life to other people’s expectations: Way too many people are living a life that is not theirs to live. They live their lives according to what others think is best for them, they live their lives according to what their parents think is best for them, to what their friends, their enemies and their teachers, their government and the media think is best for them. They ignore their inner voice, that inner calling. They are so busy with pleasing everybody, with living up to other people’s expectations, that they lose control over their lives. They forget what makes them happy, what they want, what they need….and eventually they forget about themselves. You have one life – this one right now – you must live it, own it, and especially don’t let other people’s opinions distract you from your path.

We are so happy to see great success stories, before and after shots, and overall lifestyle comments about how people genuinely feel better about themselves! Nothing makes us feel happier. 
Skincare is a complex subject for starters! As you know, there are millions of products out there that do this and that, all ranging from a few dollars to a few hundred dollars! There are endless choices, but none of which tell you the interesting facts about the most intimate layer of clothing you have, your skin!
The skin is the largest organ in the body and weighs 12 – 15% of the total body weight.
There are 2 different types of skin
- Glaborous skin which is non hairy (i.e. soles of feet and palms of hands)
- Hairy skin
The average human being has 21 sq ft of skin and about 300 million skin cells.
The skin is constantly renewing itself from the bottom up and takes 52 – 77 days to shed cells.
Humans shed about 600,000 particles of skin every hour – about 1.5 pounds a year. By 70 years of age, an average person will have lost 105 pounds of skin. Wow!
Each half square inch of skin has approx 10 hairs, 15 sebaceous glands, 100 sweat glands, 3.2 feet of tiny blood vessels.
There are 45 miles of nerves in the skin of a human being. That is longer than my commute to work!
Seventy percent of the dust in your home consists of shed human skin. Those dust bunnies are not cute.
Goose bumps are actually little pimples that help retain a layer of warm air over our body.
Big, big, crazy fact: globally, dead skin accounts for about a billion tons of dust in the atmosphere. Wow!
As you can see, our skin plays a huge part in our overall health. Our skin works overtime to keep us healthy, thank your skin by giving yourself a big hug and giving it the nutrients it needs to take even better care of you!
