How to Create a Ritual Bath for Imbolc
A relaxing bath is a great form of self-care. It also has an array of MANY other amazing health benefits, such as reducing muscle tension, improving blood circulation, boosting the immune system, removing toxins from the body, and promoting a great night's sleep. Ritual baths are also a viable addition in the treatment of depression and stress reduction.
With a ritual bath, you use this water to anoint your body. In countries like India, the Hindus take ritual baths in "sacred holy water" by taking a dip in the River Ganges. Ritual baths are often used in these ways to ward off negativity and promote positivity.
Below, My Sacred Spine Team Member & Reiki Master, Archana Edmond, offers her take on a relaxing, cleansing Ritual Bath for the Imbolc Season:
~ 1 Cup of Milk (can use Nut Milk) of your choice
~ 1/2 Cup of Honey
~ 2 Teaspoons of Lavender buds, slighty crushed, or you may use 4-5 drops of Lavender Essential Oil
~ Lemon Peel from 1 Lemon
Your ritual bath should last for 20-30 minutes. Make sure to STAY HYDRATED before and after your bath.
