Directions:

Cleanse and Create a sacred space where you will be bathing. Gather your candles, journaling items, a tea, large glass of water, and anything else that might help you relax and settle into a bath. Make sure to get a robe or towel lovingly ready for afterwards.

Begin filling your bathtub with comfortably hot water.

Gather a large bowl and pour the entire package of the Plant Wash into the bowl. Massage the salt, flowers, herbs all together as you connect to your breath. Really squeeze them together as you speak the intentions of your heart into the Medicines for your bath. Ask them to help you release tensions and ties to things that are not serving your highest good, and to help clear space to allow for more softness, safety, peace, joy and love (feel free to add on to this list)  to settle within you. You will feel the herbs and salt begin to blend well and when it feels complete, offer your gratitude for the work it will be doing on/with you, and gently pour into the water of the bath. Here you can gently hum or offer a song or continue in your prayer/intentions you have been making. 

When the water feels comfortable, carefully climb on in, being mindful of the requests and gratitude for your Bath. Sit for a few moments and just Listen. There’s no right or wrong way to immerse yourself in this experience, all I can say is trust yourself to dance delicately between just Being (doing nothing) and allowing wisdom to be translated through you (for those of you who may want to journal more). It’s recommended to soak for at least 30 mins. Do what feels best for you.

At the end of the bath, pull the drain. You can rinse your body with fresh water (to cleanse off the epsom salt) offering gratitude for each and every thing. Allow the water to drain. Collect the remaining plant material at the bottom into a small container and return them back onto the Earth. This is the completion of the ritual. Be tender with yourself and continue to listen as you give yourself some time to integrate and reorient to you present awareness. May you be blessed.
