🌞 Celebrate the Summer Solstice with Intention and Self-Care
The summer solstice—known as Ke Alanui Polohiwa a Kāne here in Hawai‘i—is more than just the longest day of the year. It’s a powerful time to pause, reset, and realign with what brings you joy and vitality. At Seven Senses Spa, we believe in honoring these seasonal shifts as opportunities for renewal—mind, body, and spirit.
🌺 What Is the Summer Solstice?
On June 20th or 21st, the sun reaches its highest point in the sky. In many cultures, this day symbolizes growth, abundance, and light. In Hawai‘i, where nature plays such a central role in daily life, the solstice reminds us to live with presence and harmony.
💆♀️ Create a Solstice Self-Care Ritual
Start this summer by treating yourself to mindful practices that ground and refresh you. Here are a few of our favorite ways to mark the solstice:
✨ 1. Begin the Day with Quiet Intention
Take a moment at sunrise to set a summer intention.
Try journaling or meditating on what you want to cultivate more of—peace, energy, creativity, or balance.
🌿 2. Reconnect with Your Body
Book a massage or healing treatment that helps you release tension and restore balance.
Try our Aromatherapy Massage with uplifting citrus or grounding sandalwood oils to align with the energy of the season.
🧖♀️ 3. Hydrate and Heal Your Skin
Summer sun can dry and dull your skin. Treat yourself to a Hydrating Facial or After-Sun Body Wrap to nourish your glow.
Ask about our seasonal offerings featuring local ingredients like aloe, coconut, and Hawaiian noni.
🌊 4. Get Into Nature
After your spa session, head to the beach or a quiet lookout to reflect.
Soak in the beauty of the land (‘āina) and let the natural light energize your spirit.
🕯️ 5. End with Gratitude
Light a candle at sunset.
Reflect on what has blossomed in your life so far this year—and what you're ready to let go of.
💖 Honor the Light Within
The summer solstice is your reminder to pause, soak in the sunlight, and nurture your inner glow. However you choose to celebrate, take time to care for yourself—you deserve it.
