5 Health and Beauty Tips For Bathing
- Enhance the action of your bath with essential oils. Six drops in the water are enough to make a difference. Try grapefruit, bergamot, or lime for energy; clary sage, rosemary, or patchouli to soothe the mind; and melissa, lavender, or chamomile to help you sleep.
- If you’re using essential oils, put them in after you finish running the water. Close the door and wait 2-3 minutes before you get in – this helps the oils evaporate into the air and maximizes their powers.
- For the best beauty results, baths should be either long or short. Short baths (5-10 minutes) cleanse the skin without dehydration. If you take long baths (over 20 minutes) it starts to rehydrate your skin from the outside (why you go pruny).
- Medium length baths (10-20 minutes) should be avoided as you actually lose water from the skin while you bathe. This can result in dehydration.
- If you are allergic to seafood, skip the seaweed baths. If you have sensitive skin - body brushing, salts, essential oils, and bath foams are best avoided. If you have any heart or blood pressure problems, avoid very hot or very cold baths or showers.
