One of the best ways to reduce stress is by taking a bath. This has become time consuming for a lot of us these days. It isn't something we should do daily, but once every couple of weeks is a good shout for self-care at home.
We recommend using Epsom salts in gorgeous warm bathwater. Epsom salts help you relax your muscles and this should, in turn, set you up for a good nights sleep.
Make the bath warm, pour in 1cup of Epsom salts, and sit in it for at least 20 minutes, stay longer if you are having a good time!
Another good tip for a bedtime bath is magnesium flakes, which help to relax you before bedtime. These can also be used for children.
Bathtime routine:
Have a chamomile tea
Avoid any screentime and pop your phone away from the bathroom
Warn people you are going for a nice quiet bath
Dry brush your body before getting into the bath
Do this in an upward sweeping motion
Run the bath to a suitable warm temperature
Light some candles or dim the lights
Add some slow flo music on low in the background
Enjoy the atmosphere of your lovely bath
Have a room temperature glass of water ready for after the bath
