Your bathroom should be more than simply a room where you wash yourself and get ready for work and going out, your bathroom should be the ultimate sanctuary in your home where you can pamper yourself, hidden away from the rat race of life.
Bathing can be a pure hedonism, with its ritualistic pleasures of creamy soaps, exfoliating sponges, nourishing oils, and therapeutic essences. Soaking in a hot bath with aromatherapy fragrances maybe one of your only real private indulging times away from life, it stills the mind, and then allows you to dream a little.
Water throughout history has been called the greatest healer and has been used for religious purification. Today we use water to wash and bathe and forget to realise that it can be so much more than that, such as rinsing away tension, cleansing the mind, body and spirit of negative emotion. Some experts believe that it can be like returning to the womb.
Your bathroom is very much a test amount to your individual taste and style, but minimalistic style tends to be best for relaxing in, rather than having clutter.
- Invest in a heated towel rail and the fluffiest of towels, the softest robe and the cosiest of slippers.
- Always make sure the bathroom is warm before you have your bath
- You could even install under floor heating for added heat
- If you have a shower, then buy an extra large shower head.
- Decorate the room with beautifully designed fittings, both mirrors and glass reflect light and create space, so even if you have a small bathroom you can create an illusion of space to relax in.
- Remove as much clutter as possible and then make an exquisite designed feature of bodycare products, jars of natural soaps, bathsalts and scented bathsalts. Citrus scents like lemon are uplifting and scents like lavender are calming.
- Finally have an mp3/iPod unit with small sound bar or an Alexa nearby to play soothing music. These days you can find plenty of waterproof sound bars, many designed for bathrooms.
