So, there 4 days left until my show, and the next day going on vacation!
My knee really hurts right now but I've been icing it. Today I'm gonna do a clarifying face mask, just to help keep my skin clear, so that i don't have to worry about it when caking on all the stage makeup. Also doing a facial is going to help relax me a bit, which is really important leading up to the show, because so many other thing contribute to stress..
I'm going to start laying out the clothes I want to pack today, and finish that up tomorrow, so I can be all packed and ready before the day of the show, so all I have to think about is the show :)
Here's some stress free tips I'm using this week:
-Drink lots of water (when you really busy and it's so hot outside it is really important to hydrate, and drinking lots of water helps flush out toxins that can lead to stress and broken out skin)
-Cut out other fluids (if you drink other stuff like soda, juices, I've been really obsessed with Brisk Iced tea lately, but by cutting those out you cut back on alot of sugar, and unwanted calories. With the exception, of a cup of coffee an hour before dancing or rehearsal, to help get my energy going!)
-Get outside but use SUNSCREEN (right now where I live it's really hot outside, and the last thing you want is to be bright red with sunburn on stage, so use sunscreen, but get outside to breathe the fresh air, and get you mind off everything for an hour or so. Go read a book in the shade, or do some gardening; I have a couple small flower beds that i like to take care of.)
-Go to bed early! (It's the week of the show and with all those hours of rehearings, your gonna be exhausted before the show, unless you give your body enough time to recharge every night, so even log on to your computer, something that easily sucks me in late at night, instead drink a cup of tea or take a nice warm bath,
and go to bed as early as you can.)
Have a wonderful de-stressful day!!!
