Embrace Your Inner Goddess: A Step-By-Step Guide To Creating A Divine Goddess Bath

With the days getting colder and quickly speeding towards Winter, it's officially bath season. Time to run the tap, grab your kindle, light those candles and firmly slide the lock across the bathroom door. Baths are one of our favourite ways to practise self-care, in the most relaxing way possible. But a simple bath isn’t enough for us, and they shouldn’t be for you either. It’s time to connect with your inner goddess by indulging in a luxurious goddess bath. This calming ritual is an amazing way to celebrate your femininity, honour your body, and just generally bliss out.

So, light some candles, crack out your favourite bath salts, and find out how to create a goddess bath that will leave you feeling like the divine being you were born to be!

Step 1: Set the Scene

Creating the perfect ambiance is crucial for a relaxing goddess bath. Start by decluttering your bathroom and setting a peaceful atmosphere. Dim the lights or use soft, warm lighting; we recommend candles or even fairy lights to create a serene environment. Then it’s time to cue up that chill spotify playlist you’ve been adding to, or maybe your favourite podcast to unwind with.

Step 2: Choose Your Bath Essentials

Goddess baths are all about pampering yourself with luxurious products. Open up your notes app, it's time to C+P some of our favourites (including some Build Your Own Treatbox essentials):

  • Bath Salts or Bath Melts: Opt for natural, high-quality bath salts or bath melts in your favourite scents. Look for ingredients like Epsom salts, essential oils, and flower petals for that extra special touch.

  • Essential Oils: Select essential oils that align with your intentions for the bath. Lavender, rose, chamomile, and ylang-ylang are all great choices for relaxation.

  • Crystals: Place crystals like rose quartz, amethyst, or clear quartz around the tub or in the water to infuse your bath with positive energy and healing vibrations. This is where our Mini Ready To Go ‘Crystal Starter Kit’ Treatbox shines!

  • Fresh Flowers: Add a touch of nature to your bath by scattering fresh flower petals on the water's surface. Roses, lavender, or lotus blossoms can make your bath feel even more divine.

  • Herbs: Incorporate dried herbs like rosemary, chamomile, or sage to enhance the sensory experience and amplify the cleansing properties of your bath.

Step 3: Prepare Your Bath

Fill your bathtub with warm water, ensuring it's at a comfortable temperature. As the water flows, add your chosen bath salts or bombs, essential oils, crystals, and herbs. Visualise the water being infused with positive energy and intentions as you do this. Stir the water gently to mix everything together.

Step 4: Set Your Intentions

Before stepping into the bath, take a few moments to set your intentions for this goddess bath. What do you want to release, manifest, or simply embrace? Speak your intentions aloud or silently to the universe.

Step 5: Soak and Meditate

Carefully step into the bath and submerge yourself, allowing the soothing water to envelop you. Close your eyes and take deep, mindful breaths. Use this time to meditate, connect with your inner self, and let go of any stress or negativity.

Step 6: Pamper Yourself

While in the bath, take the opportunity to pamper your body. Use a gentle scrub, like one of our all-natural coffee scrubs or an exfoliating pad to massage your skin, enhancing circulation and rejuvenation. Your body deserves just as much self-care as your mind does!

Step 7: Express Gratitude

As you begin to feel refreshed and rejuvenated, take a moment to express gratitude for this experience. Acknowledge the goddess within you and thank the universe for the blessings in your life. Think of it like journaling for your soul! 

Step 8: Rinse and Rejoice

When you're ready to finish up your goddess bath, rinse off any remaining bath products and gently towel-dry yourself. Feel the renewed energy and confidence that comes from honouring your need for self-care. But it doesn’t need to stop there, why not leave the candles burning and end the evening with a sheet mask. When it comes to pampering yourself, more is definitely more! 

Creating a goddess bath is a super calming act of self-love and self-care to empower you and help you connect with your inner goddess.
