Steps

  1. Create a calm environment with soft music and dim lights.
  2. Light one or two aromatherapy candles in your scent of choice.
  3. Add scent to the water.
    • If you're using scented bath salts, place 2 tbs. in the bottom of the tub once you have plugged the drain.
    • If you're using oils, add about 5-6 drops of essential oil to the bottom of the tub.
    • If you're using herbs, make sure they are sealed in a cloth bag. Tie the bag to the faucet, so that the water will run directly through it.
  4. Run hot water until the bath is nearly full.
  5. Add cool water until the bath is noticeably warmer than skin temperature, but not uncomfortably hot.
  6. Soak yourself for at least 20 minutes. If possible, close your eyes and lean back in the tub.
  7. Dry off with a soft, warm towel.
  8. Stay in the bathroom for several minutes while you drain the bath to enjoy the scented steam.

Warnings

  • Test the essential oils beforehand to make sure you're not allergic.
  • Don't use too much essential oil, as it can irritate your skin.
  • Make sure you don't get oil or bath salts directly on your eyes.
