Tub Tea
To create your tub of tea, all you have to do is make tea bags by placing a bunch of herbs in a large square of muslin tied in a pouch with a ribbon. Using old stockings works too. After you've filled your bag with herbs, place it in your bath as the tub is filling with water and deep bath bubble, salts and skin and hair conditioners handy!

Clean Up
repare for your bath by starting with a clean, fresh bathroom, rinsing the tub with warm water and a sponge (or use a bathroom cleaner if needed). Pick up any towels or dirty clothes that have been left behind. Rearrange bathroom bottles so only those you need are within arm’s reach (less clutter clears the way for renewed energy).

Take the time to consider what else you might want to add to your aquatic environment to be sure it is as comfortable as possible: A stack of towels, fragrant soap, loofah or brush, bath pillow, your favourite bath salts, after-bath queeze it a couple of times to let the herb juices flow.

Gentle and relaxing herbs to bathe with include dried marjoram and thyme. Add a quarter cup of each to your pouch and let the water rush through. For an extra treat, add a cup of bath salts and a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar directly to the bathwater. The combination is nourishing for your skin.

Citrus leaves and dried citrus peels make a sweet tea bath that aids in the elimination of toxins. You can crunch up the leaves and put them in a tea bag, or simply drop the leaves and rinds directly into your tub and let the aromatic forces flow. Dried rose petals and dried lavender flowers can induce the ultimate relaxation. Two tablespoons of each in your ‘tea bag’ will soothe a tired mind.
