There is something so womb like. I invariable end up falling asleep. For me, it's one of life's absolute pleasures :-)<br />Di<br />xxxxxYONKShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02659751063643621817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8806321148001582068.post-84428819491001242162013-06-10T21:15:52.737-04:002013-06-10T21:15:52.737-04:00Celia I love the luxury of a bath with bubbles or ...Celia I love the luxury of a bath with bubbles or bath salts, so relaxing.

When I was in Spain I only had a walk in shower (all newish properties don't have baths but walk-in showers because of the water shortages in the summer). My shower is gorgeous so didn't really miss a bath too much. Even in Spanish hotels there are notices everywhere about not taking a bath but a shower instead. I have had it so in-grained in me that I now feel too GUILTY to wallow in a luxurious bath. Maybe I will take the steps too when in the UK ;-)Vannessa@Luxuriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13004543876391503184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8806321148001582068.post-56618192110125104852013-06-09T20:54:59.459-04:002013-06-09T20:54:59.459-04:00Hi Celia, When I had a knee problem and was seeing...Hi Celia, When I had a knee problem and was seeing an acupuncturist (4 yrs ago), she recommended soaking in the tub with Epsom salts. I also used to enjoy soaking in a hot tub (spa). Very relaxing. Thanks for your article, Celia. It was another really good one!Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09792341123595520130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8806321148001582068.post-45365106521302696422013-06-09T20:38:14.401-04:002013-06-09T20:38:14.401-04:00Sounds perfect!

Epsom salt actually contains no sodium.<br /><br />Epsom salt is a hydrated crystal form of magnesium sulfate, which contains magnesium, sulfur and oxygen. Epsom salt crystals are larger than table salt crystals and more closely resemble kosher salt or sea salt. Adding it to bath water helps draw out impurities through the skin's pores and to relieve skin problems, muscle soreness and injury.<br /><br />Side Note: Epsom salt gets its name from the mineral-rich waters in Epsom, England where it was originally extracted (by boiling the water down).<br /><br />It truly is amazing how great you feel after a bath with Epsom salt. You can add just Epsom salt to your bath. Enjoy my friend...

That is pure bliss. Than slipping into a clean night gown, putting on my robe, soft anti slip indoor socks and continue with a book or watching a favorite video near the fire place. Strange scenario for the summer but a great dream! In the summer I seldom take a bath though; other than for soothing some aching muscles.<br />Hugs to you,<br />MarietteMariette VandenMunckhof-Vedderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16877699174880945452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8806321148001582068.post-68919049591517574542013-06-09T19:20:28.639-04:002013-06-09T19:20:28.639-04:00I indulge in a Lavender bath almost every night.
