With snow blanketing most of the US, it’s safe to say that spring has not quite blossomed. One perk? More time to establish a healing bath ritual to reduce stress, soften skin, and fall asleep swiftly and soundly. Don’t reserve such a soothing self care experience for the weekend, when it’s those busy post-work evenings you need a proper wind-down the most! Follow this easy bath ritual to go from ugh to ahh—even on a Monday:

Before Your Bath

1. Indulge your senses. Gather your favorite self-care supplies to create a sensory experience while you soak. Try a bath caddy set with a candle and a good book or soothing music and a bunch of eucalyptus—the steam from the water will release its oils to promote stress reduction and pain relief while you relax.

Tip: If you need more room or don’t have a caddy, use a small stool to keep everything within reach.

2. Draw your bath. Swap the drying, sulfate-filled suds for a milky bath to elevate your experience and nourish skin. Add a few pumps of Wash as it fills for a gentle full body “facial” that softens and restores skin with organic shea butter and detoxifying lotus flower. Before you shut off the faucet, drop in a Bath Truffle to reap the benefits of healing Epsom and pink Himalayan salts as you soak.

During Your Bath

3. Ensure a luxurious wash and smooth shave with shea butter rich triple-milled Soap in your favorite aroma or UNZENTED.

4. Soak for upwards of twenty minutes for soft skin and a calm mind. Make it a meditative experience by reflecting on the previous day with a gratitude practice and intention-setting for tomorrow.

After Your Bath

5. Towel dry skin with a luxury towel (a surprisingly simple trick to uplevel any bath ritual!) until damp. Polish like the pros by applying a layer of vitamin-E infused Body Oil to your body, then buff with Body Polish—the salt and sugar Polish won’t dissolve on the oil, leaving you with even silkier skin.

6. Have a silk robe and cozy slippers ready to extend the bath ritual from bathroom to bed! It’s amazing how mindful little details can transform your weeknight and evoke a sounder, more refreshing sleep!
