Bathing Rituals

 

 The rich history of ancient bathing rituals gives us an insight into the therapeutic benefits of bathing to help soothe the mind and body. The holistic benefits of immersing ourselves into water is something our ancestors understood well.  Bathing and cleansing were part of religious rituals in ancient India, tied to the healing waters of rivers.

 

 Ancient Ayurvedic texts speak of royal baths with rose petals, milk, honey and turmeric. The rich heritage of floral bathing can be traced back to ancient Egypt where oils, flowers and aromatic herbs turned bathwater into a sensual luxury. Legend  has it that Cleopatra, Queen of Egypt, bathed daily in milk laced with honey and rose oil.

​

 Around the world, from the Onsen in Japan to the Turkish Hammam, every culture has developed their own therapeutic  bathing rituals to help soothe tired muscles and calm the mind. In today's fast paced world, practicing bathing rituals from  the comfort of your home is an important part of an holistic approach to your wellbeing.
