Mommy and Baby Spa Nirvana

Another interesting tidbit came out of our L.A. press breakfast on the topic of the latest spa trends. In addition to sharing Spa Finder’s predicted top ten spa trends of the year for the U.S. in general, I presented some specific information from the current area. We talked about the hot trend in L.A. of moms and babies going to spas together.

One writer for a yoga publication (who brought her eight-month-old!) shared her recent experience at a mommy and baby yoga class with 40 other women. What she found fascinating is that during much of the session there were many babies fussing, as you would expect when there are 40 in the room. But at one point the instructor asked all the moms to join her in a slow and lengthy chant of “ommmmm.” Every single baby became quiet. Amazing what powerful transformations can happen in these settings.
