Embrace the light this spring

The spring equinox on 20th March marks the arrival of a new season and a gentle reminder that nature is ready to begin again. After a season of hibernation, it’s the perfect time to shake off winter heaviness, soften your routine and create space for what you want more of this season: energy, clarity and calm.

With the clocks going forward on the last Sunday in March, mornings and evenings begin to feel lighter, longer and full of possibility. It’s also a great moment to refresh your skin, rebalance your nervous system and step into spring feeling restored.

Reset and renew at GAIA Spa

Whether you’re craving deep relaxation or simply time away from a busy diary, a visit to GAIA Spa at Boringdon Hall in Devon can help you align with the new season. Choose from rejuvenating spa treatments, indulgent spa days, or longer spa breaks designed to help you unwind, recharge and welcome spring’s sense of abundance.

Think of it as a seasonal reset: a restorative massage to release winter tension, a nourishing facial to revive dull, dehydrated skin and mindful time in the spa enjoying a peaceful rhythm. If you’re planning a spring getaway, a Signature Spa Break offers unhurried mornings and a treatment to leave you feeling lighter.

March wellness tips for a softer start to spring

As we move into spring, try these simple rituals to transition gently:

• Awaken your skin - Exfoliate and nourish winter-tired skin, finishing with a lightweight body oil for a natural spring glow.
• Take time to truly rest - Prioritise sleep, slow evenings and small moments of calm. A warm bath, soft lighting and an early night can help your body relax.

Team tip from therapist Ashleigh - “I make sure I get 8 hours each night. I set my bedroom for rest by avoiding screens, doing some journaling or reading, and lighting a GAIA Calming candle.”

• Invite fresh air - Open a window, take five slow breaths and let the changing season reinvigorate your energy.
• Move with the light - Step outside daily. Natural daylight lifts the mood, supports sleep, and signals a fresh start.

This spring equinox, begin again at Gaia Spa.
