Herbal Spa Treat at Home


It's really hot where I am today. Going through a work week in this heat would be really tiring. Thankfully there's  the weekend to look forward to and a chance to slow down and spoil yourself a little when no one's looking! There really shouldn't be any excuse not to give yourself a little spa treat and have a soak in the bath this weekend. You've earned it!


There’s nothing quite like the pleasure of a long warm unwinding soak after a really tiring week.
This weekend have a Herbal Bath to soothe those tired muscles. Pop into your local Natural Health shop and  pick up some herbs. If you can't get any, some Chamomile teabags will do just fine!
Put 50g (combined measurement) of dried chamomile, comfrey and marigold into a jug.  Pour in a pint (600ml) of boiling water and leave to infuse for 30mins.
Chamomile helps to soothe the muscles and softens the skin. Comfrey and Marigold both have great healing agents.

Strain the infusion through a sieve and pour into your bath water. Put in a few drops of Lavender oil. Lavender is very relaxing and helps to soothe headaches.
A quick handy tip; do not add soap to your bath as this will coat your skin not allowing the herbs to penetrate.

Now light the candles, get a nice book and step into your well deserved treat. (Please don’t fall asleep!)
Have a relaxing weekend!
