I am just back from a conference, where I worked hard and long hours. But I loved it and I could manage it all, because I knew there was a spacious, light and clean bathroom in my hotel room, waiting for me to splash out in an oil scented, hot and relaxed tub. I took some candles with me and my iPhone did the trick with providing soothing music.
Bliss.
A way of recharging my batteries, that only took half an hour.
Just me.
