Hot baths at night, tons of benefits

I’m big on baths, I take one every night and put a bunch of stuff in it. Menthol salts, witch hazel, different oils, etc. The benefits are numerous, especially before bed:
Lower blood pressure
Muscle relaxer
Cools your interior and vital organs, this helps keep you cool while you sleep.
Keeps skin moisturized in the winter, oil helps this a lot.
Quiet reflection time calms the mind.
I also listen to binaural beats or meditative music while I’m in there and use bath time to meditate. Low light is best, I turn the lights off in the bathroom and keep a lamp on in the bedroom for a little bit of soft light.
Once you get out your body feels amazing, even sitting and watching tv feels better. Walking to the kitchen to make a bowl of ice cream feels better because your limbs are all loosey goosey.
I know people who haven’t taken a bath in years, so give it a shot if it’s been a while. Walmart actually has a lot of good bath stuff like salts and oils that I buy all the time.

This is an ironic thread given all the chatter on here about cold plunges.

I also started a thread about cold showers, that’s my a.m. routine and I take a hot bath at night.

I haven’t taken one in almost thirty years.

Give it a shot! Sometimes I’ll listen to a basketball game on the radio in the tub, it’s a great place to just chill and unwind.

I get in my hot tub almost every night. I sleep like the dead

A tub bath using Dr. Squatch pine tar soap is way up there for me.

It’s good for the body, tells your vital organs to cool down and that helps with sleep.

Sometimes i will take a massive shite and not even wipe. Let the chips fall where they may. Incredibly empowering

I laughed harder than I should have to that.

I’m the hot tub? Do the turds float?

Unfortunately, women aren’t this lucky and can’t use all those oils/ingredients nightl. Infections would be happening.

Sitting in tubs is uncomfortable

I never feel clean after a bath. I think a warm shower would accomplish most of the same relaxing qualities.

After a bath, I tend to hop in the shower to really clean off. A hot bath is relaxing though.
