Winter Bathtime Ritual

R

ecently, I have noticed that many of my clients and friends seem to be suffering a lot with their mental health. Not just winter blues either, but all the effects from the last two years are beginning to take their toll on many of us. It’s not easy to escape this feeling, but taking some time to focus on us, shutting out the outside world, can help us feel better, even if only for a little while. With this in mind, I offer you this simple bath ritual. Run yourself a bath, with the following soak; 1 cup Sea Salt 1 cup Epsom Salt 15 drops Grapefruit Essential Oil Mix them all together in a clean jar, shake well to combine. Add a handful to your bath. Grapefruit is uplifting and relaxing on the mind, it can help lift emotions and can be revitalising if you are suffering from mental exhaustion. Don’t just have a bath, surround yourself with candles, a book, calming music, a glass of wine (or something else). Spend time relaxing, avoid being disturbed, make some time to just be by yourself. It’s something we don’t do enough of, and it can help calm our thoughts, making us feel more in control. Try it, I hope it helps you.
