Energy Soak

 

Healing baths are an excellent way to cleanse and purify the body.

Nettle and red clover blossoms are gentle cleansing herbs, while

peppermint helps to improve circulation and has stimulating

properties.

 

ENERGIZING SOAK-This stimulating herbal bath is especially good for

an energy boost after a long day.

 

3 tbsp dried nettle

3 tbsp dned red clover blossoms

2 tbsp dried peppermint

5 drops peppermint essential oil

5 drops rosemary essential oil

I tsp distilled witch hazel

 

Place the dried herbs in the center of a piece of cloth like a cotton

handkerchief. Gather the corners of the cloth together and tie with a

piece of string, making a loop large enough to fit over your bathtub

faucet.

 

Hang this herbal " teabag " from the faucet so that the bathwater runs

through it. While you wait for the tub to fill, dilute the essential

oils with the witch hazel to prevent any skin sensitivity to the

concentrated oil.

 

When the tub is full, add the essential oil mixture. (oils will

dissipate too quickly if added while the hot water is still

running.) Swirl the water around with your hand to disperse the

oils. Place the herbal teabag in the tub.

 

DRY-BRUSH YOUR BODY-To enhance the effect of the bath, Vukovic

recommends dry brushing your entire body before you step into the

bathtub. Once you have entered the tub, soak for 15-20 minutes,

adding additional hot water as needed to maintain a constant water

temperature. For an increased energizing effect, follow this bath

with a cold shower.
