Friday Refresh - Benefits of a Bath

Hey there!

Is it just me, or does the world feel so much better after a hot soak? Last night—after a particularly exhausting day—I surrendered to a steamy bath with our new Sea Salt & Sage Soaking Salts. It reminded me why humans have loved tub time for thousands of years. Let’s dive into the benefits we could all use more of… 💧

🧪 The Science-Backed Perks of Getting Your Soak On

Hot baths aren’t just blissful—they may benefit your health! A 2020 Japanese study tracking 30,000+ people for nearly two decades found that regular hot soakers had a significantly lower risk of heart problems. Researchers suspect improved blood flow plays a role. (Pass the rubber duck!)

💪 Your Muscles Will Thank You

That stubborn knot from sleeping funny? A hot soak can help. Magnesium in Epsom or sea salts penetrates skin, helping muscles relax and easing joint pain or inflammation. It’s like a gentle, full-body massage—no appointment necessary.

✨ The Mind-Body Magic

Best part: doomscrolling is impossible underwater! Bath time becomes built-in digital detox, perfect for:

• Clearing mental clutter
• Processing the day’s events
• Practicing mindfulness (focus on the water’s warmth)
• Giving your busy brain downtime

Think of it as mini-meditation that requires zero effort—just breathe and be.

🌟 Your Weekend Challenge

Carve out 30 minutes for the ultimate soak:

• Add 2 cups of Epsom salts to a standard tub.
• Drop in a few drops of lavender or eucalyptus essential oil.
• Keep a large glass of cool water nearby (stay hydrated!).
• Put your phone in another room.
• Breathe, read, or simply relax—bonus points for candles and chill music. (Our new Bath Salt Soaks are ready when you are!)

Sending you relaxing vibes,
