If you want to unwind after a hard day in a hot bath, read this article and learn how to turn your bath into a spa experience.
Steps
Step 1. Think back to the last time you relaxed in the bath, washing away your day's stress
Step 2. Take time for yourself to relax
Finish all household chores before you start relaxing. Take some time for your body and soul, let the worries go away.
Step 3. Prepare a special bath
Turn off your phone. Pour a glass of wine, take a magazine, turn off the light in the bathroom, light candles (you can use scented ones), turn on hot water, add oil, balls or bath bombs to it. Aromatherapy is a great way to relax, there are so many good bath stuff in stores, why not get something ?!
Step 4. Immerse yourself in the tub and let the stress wash out and drain out of the water
Step 5. Relax
Let your worries dissolve in water. Think of the sunny beach, the kisses of the sun, the starry skies, let the thoughts of children, work, money evaporate. Open your mind, meditate and enjoy!
Step 6. Try to shower before taking a bath
This will make you soak in clear water.
Step 7. Prepare a playlist of relaxing songs and enjoy music while taking a bath
Step 8. A face mask and a good book are essential for taking a bath
Get creative by making your own mask with 1 banana (mashed), 1 tablespoon of honey, and 5 tablespoons of oatmeal. You can buy a ready-made mask in the store for a reasonable price.
Step 9. Enjoy
