The HOL:FIT Bath

a beautiful end of day routine

The power of the pause…

I’ve been a fan of this ritual for years …

It’s respected in my week much like the massage and the DND settings on my phone.
(DND is one of the phone hacks I teach in the Beautiful Life Lab)

If you’re looking to upgrade your bathing experience,
I have a little routine I want to share that I think you’re gonna love 🤸‍♀️

Create the Space:

I like to have a few essentials in my bathroom that literally beckon me to take this time out.

A 1/2 gallon glass jar full of epsom salts. I will also pop my empty essential oil bottles in here to draw the last few drops of oil out into the salts.
And I keep a wood scoop in or right on top of the jar for easy portioning.
Next to this is a smaller glass jar of baking soda.

And then a little assortment of my fave bath essential oils on a tray (scroll down to see some combinations)

Oh and the bamboo tub tray I always receive messages about …

I keep my simple doTERRA self care products, a few bamboo candles and a big glass jar of water for drinking while I soak.

The Ritual:

Dim the lights and light a few bamboo candles

Run the water and 1/2c epsom salts + 1/4c baking soda to it which will alkalinize the water, cleanse + soften the skin.
Note - water filtration is very wise to consider …you can buy a simple tub filter if you don’t have a whole home water filter.

In a little glass bowl, add 1/2c epsom salts and about 3 tbsp carrier oil; just enough to make the salts spreadable.

Add 4-6 drops doterra of choice to the bowl and then massage this beautiful brew into your skin. 

Oils I love to work with:

💧 AromaTouch (soothes muscles)
💧 Juniper berry + rosemary (detoxing)
💧 Adaptiv (a hug in the tub)
💧 Vetiver + lavender (deep sleep)
💧 Blue tansy + cedarwood (skin love)

Sink into the water and let the salts dissolve from your skin. 
Soak for 20 min while sipping on 20oz of water. My fave tonic is 1/2 lemon squeezed with 2 drops of doTERRA ginger oil.

Careful exiting the tub as it will be a little slippery!

Once you’re out:

Exfoliate heels and massage Yarrow Pom body serum into them.

Then the ultimate: add 4-5 drops of doterra Metabolic blend oil to a few tsp of carrier oil (jojoba or argan are great for this) and massage into stomach, legs and arms. So freakin good!

As you work in the body oil, reflect on the experiences your body has brought you through.

Lingering on the scars + wrinkles ... they tell more than a bio ever could 💫

I shared many awesome tips like this in my Glowing Skin Class

Notes:

Sometimes your sweat will leave some evidence in the tub depending on what your body is releasing during the bath. To clean this, spray a little OnGuard cleanser and wipe down. To make this cleanser, add to a spray bottle: 2 tbsp OnGuard Concentrate + 10 drops OnGuard + 10 drops Peppermint then top up with water.
