Celebrate Carnival Season with Planet Beach & Laissez les bons temps rouler – “Let the good times roll!”

This morning, I visited my favorite neighborhood coffee shop to pick up my daily dose of caffeine and, lo and behold, there was a King Cake available for purchase among the row of pastries, bagels and muffins. Then suddenly, the Hawketts Mardi Gras Mambo began playing in the background and just like that, it was Carnival Time!

January 6th commemorates Three Kings Day, a holiday celebrated in most Latin American and Caribbean countries. The holiday is associated with the traditional Christian feast day of Epiphany when the three wise men brought gifts to baby Jesus. Many countries pay homage to the wise men by placing hay, grass or shoes under their beds in exchange for a special gift. In addition, there is a culinary tradition of making Rosca de Reyes (King’s Cake), which is an oval shaped pastry with a little doll inside representing baby Jesus.

Although there are a multitude of similarities between the two delicacies, the New Orleans King Cake tradition was thought to originate in France in 1870. The King Cake is an oval shaped mix of French pastry and coffee cake and is decorated in the royal colors of PURPLE which signifies “Justice,” GREEN for “Faith,” and GOLD for “Power.” Ironically, January 6th also signifies the official start of Carnival Season which is filled with colorful parades, masquerade balls and an unlimited supply of King Cake! Before you indulge in this little taste of heaven, you must know that if you are lucky enough to get the baby, then you must host the next party and supply the King Cake. The festivities continue for approximately two months and conclude on Mardi Gras Day or “Fat Tuesday” which is always held the day before Ash Wednesday.

This New Orleans tradition brings people together near and far for an amazing celebration and provides a sense of community filled with party goers living their best life. The parades start rolling on January 6th as the Krewe of Joan of Arc navigates the French Quarter and will continue through March 1st with the Krewe of Zulu taking to the streets with their elaborate costumes and their coveted coconuts. For a full list of parades and routes, visit https://www.mardigrasneworleans.com/parades/.

In preparation of the festivities, visit Planet Beach spray & spa to look your absolute best. This neighborhood spa originated in New Orleans, so they know how to make a girl look gorgeous. Slim up in the HOTWORX infrared Sauna or get a golden glow with a UV therapy or Sunless Spray Tan. Before you slip on that gown and head out the ball, stop by your nearest Planet Beach. To find a location in the New Orleans metro area or near your home town, visit https://planetbeach.com/spa-locator/.

Have a safe and Happy Mardi Gras Season and laissez les bons temps rouler – “Let the good times roll!”

The Christmas Season is here and everyone is decking the halls, checking their lists and embracing all things merry & bright.  It’s the most wonderful time of year filled with yuletide carols, twinkling lights and sweet kisses under the mistletoe. As you prepare to reunite with family and friends to celebrate the holiday, put yourself at the top of the priority list to ensure you feel and look your absolute best. Follow these tips to sparkle & shine this holiday season:

1. Remember, You Are What You Eat
In an article published in Forbes magazine, Dr. Judy Ho recommends these healthy eating tips.  She states that, “The promise of a clean slate on January 1st often provides another temptation to abandon healthy eating practices during the holidays.  This perspective is often misinformed, though as research suggest 80% of people who make New Year’s resolutions abandon them by February. Instead of relying on resolutions, she suggests practicing these simple tips:

    • Eat slowly and mindfully
    • Use Smaller plates
    • Wait 20 minutes before going back for a second serving. (If you’re really hungry, the hunger and fullness cues take about 20 minutes to settle in.)
    • Have a healthy snack before going to a party so you’re not tempted to eat everything you see.

2. Keep Your Workouts Consistent
Consistency is key when it comes to maintaining a healthy fitness regime. Social gatherings may interrupt your normal workout schedule, so look at your calendar in advance and schedule your workouts just as you would a meeting and stick to it. If you have plans in the afternoon or evening, schedule your workout in the morning so that it’s done before you start your day.  Planet Beach offers the revolutionary HOTWORX infrared sauna workout, which allows you to burn massive amounts of calories while detoxing the body. You’ll have an automatic boost of energy to start each day after a 30-minute isometric or 15 minute HIIT session in the HOTWORX Sauna.  If you want more workout in less time this holiday season, then this workout is for you!

3. Stop & Glam Up
It’s easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle, so make a point to stop and glam up. Make those appointments in advance for your mani/pedi and make sure that you stop by Planet Beach to get your Sunless Spray Tan. At the touch of a button, you’ll achieve an instant glow within 60 seconds that will last 5-7 days. Also, purchase one sunless session and receive one free during the month of December at select Planet Beach locations.  Ladies, you’ll feel great slipping on those party dresses with a healthy & sparkling glow.

As your making your list and checking it twice this Christmas, give yourself a little TLC so that you can share your joy and energy with the ones that you love. Remember to watch what you eat & stop by Planet Beach so that you can stay on track with your workouts & achieve that instant holiday glow.

Planet Beach wishes you the most joyous and blessed Holiday Season. We can’t wait to see you soon! xoxo

How grand life would be if we were all masters of time management. The guiding principle of managing your time effectively is to acquire the innate ability to focus. Although we all possess the ability, it is a skill that must be learned and cultivated.

A recent study found that the average human attention span has fallen from 12 seconds in 2000 to 8 seconds today. It is reported that goldfish have a 9-second attention span. So how did that come to be? How does a goldfish exceed a human’s attention span? With our brains constantly stimulated by emails, phone calls, text messages, social media & live interaction, it’s easy for the mind to automatically drift to the next shiny thing.

I remember when I was young, I would plant myself in front of the TV in the living room to complete my homework. Ironically, I was the most productive and comfortable when I immersed myself in the most active room in the house with constant noise in the background. I trained myself to let the world around me disappear so that I could completely focus on the task at hand. Although I can be easily distracted, I think that habit forming exercise of finding the quiet amidst the chaos has helped me with my life-long ability to focus.

Extending your attention span is just as important as what you focus on! Time is a commodity and it’s valuable. As a leader, you must focus on the things that matter the most. “Where focus goes, energy flows,” Tony Robbins says. “What you focus on, you feel.” The power of focus affects all aspects of your life. You can focus on goals at work, in your relationships or on personal goals like fitness and emotional health – and you can manifest those goals into being.”

Focus is the center of your interest and activity and you must condition yourself to not only pay attention, but to pay attention to what matters most. It’s such a guiding principle in productivity at HOTWORX & Planet Beach, that they themed their next Convention, FOCUS. As the number on training & networking event of the year, the company intendeds on instilling the importance of focus with their Franchisees and operators at the luxurious Phoenician Resort in Scottsdale, AZ, August 1-3 of 2022.

When life gets chaotic, don’t be a goldfish. Stay alert and find your focus.

Watch your thoughts, they become words;
watch your words, they become actions;
watch your actions, they become habits;
watch your habits, they become character;
watch your character, for it becomes your destiny.”

So often we are told, even as kids, that if we aren’t naturally talented, we shouldn’t bother trying to get better. “You either have it or you don’t” are the deadly words that describe a fixed mindset.

The fixed mindset pigeonholes a person by what he or she is good at, and only by that. It avoids challenges, gives up easily, sees effort as worthless, ignores constructive criticism, and breeds the insecurity that leads to feeling threatened by others’ success. The fixed mindset is pressured by expectations that performance must match talent. The worst part about it may be that so often, we do it to ourselves. That’s why I’m so drawn to the opposite way of thinking & having a growth mindset.

The growth mindset is based on a desire to learn. It embraces challenges, persists despite obstacles, and welcomes the chance to learn from criticism. A person with this mindset views others’ success as a window into lessons and inspiration for even greater personal success, fueled by the power of free will (not expectation).

Most people are held back not by their innate ability, but by their mindset. They think intelligence is fixed, but it isn’t. Your brain is like a muscle. The more you use it and struggle, the more it grows. New research shows we can take control of our ability to learn. We can all become better learners. We just need to build our brains in the right way.

Let’s talk about three concrete ways to build this mindset and why these will benefit you.

1. Positive self-talk.
A mindset is like software: it runs on a script. So, if you want to change your performance, you must change the script running inside your head. There must be new words to replace, “You either have it or you don’t.”

The new script for a growth mindset says, “You have the ability to make yourself into anything you want. Your inborn talent is important, but how much you work is even more important.” This new script does not impose a cap on your performance. Instead, you’re issuing yourself a challenge to do the work only you can do.

2. Positive habits.
A recent New Yorker article, “Better All the Time,” pointed out that the growth mindset and the performance industry has created “the mainstreaming of excellent habits.” If greater success and performance is possible with hard work, then the more consistent and targeted the work, the more growth can be expected.

3. Positive feedback.
We live with big data all around us, delivered via technology that measures how you are doing compared to yesterday, last week, last year, your competition, but most of all yourself. There is no substitute for hard numbers to rank performance, and it widens the gulf between a growth mindset and the abstract “you either have it or you don’t” thinking.

Let Planet Beach help you get your mind right!

At Planet Beach we believe that relaxation is key to a healthy mindset. Just as you would feel relaxed spending the day at the beach, we strive to recreate that same feeling in our spas! To relax means to calm the mind, the body, or both. Relaxing can make you feel peaceful and calm. Being relaxed can help ease stress. It can also relieve anxiety, depression, and sleep problems. So, come relax with us, erase that toxic mindset, and change it to a growth mindset today! CLICK HERE to find a Planet Beach near you, claim your free spa service, and get your relaxation on now!

The word vibe attested in 1967 as an abbreviated form of vibration in the 1960’ slang sense of “instinctive feeling.” You can instantly feel a vibe from the moment you walk into an establishment or meet a person for the first time. There is nothing better than that overwhelming intuitive feeling that you are in the right place or hanging with the right people. There have been countless times where I’ve walked into a hotel, restaurant, or business and just loved the atmosphere, aesthetics and music and said out loud, “I love the vibe here.” The same applies with people. Sometimes, the connection with another person is instantaneous and you know without a doubt that they are your people. Just as the saying goes, your vibe attracts your tribe and the energy you put out in the world directly reflects on the energies you receive.

The culture of a company or the character of a person ultimately translates to the overall vibe and experience. Forbes shared these stats on the value of the customer experience:

• 96% of customers say customer service is important in their choice of loyalty to a brand.

• Companies that provide an emotional connection with customers outperform the sales growth of their competitors by 85%.

• 80% of customers say they are more likely to do business with a company if it offers personalized experiences.

• 69% of U.S. consumers shop more with brands that offer consistent experiences in store and online.

• Companies with a customer experience mindset drive revenue 4-8% higher than the rest of their industries.

It’s safe to say that businesses that provide an exceptional and consistent customer experience are winning! Additionally, these winning businesses have mastered the ability to emotionally connect with their customers. Planet Beach has excelled in this arena by providing an alternative and inspiring atmosphere where members can relax and rejuvenate in the many automated services. At the push of a button, members enjoy a private spa experience without the need of an attendant. Through the services of a Sunless Spray Tan, Automated Massage or a HOTWORX session, our members feel rejuvenated and beautiful. Get an instant glow, detox and sculpt the body or relax and escape with an automated massage. Planet Beach is more than a business, it’s a lifestyle and to our lifetime members, a home away from home. The vibe is everything and you’ll feel it the instant you walk through the door at Planet Beach.
