My Tranquility Bath Recipe
½ cup of dry lavender flowers
½ cup of rose petals
½ cup of mint leaves
3 tablespoons of dry camomile tea or 3 camomile tea bags
3 drops of eucalyptus essential oil
3 drops of peppermint essential oil
a square of cheesecloth (about 11" x 11") to wrap
1 tie or rubber band to secure your bag
All you do is add all the ingredients in the middle of the cheesecloth before locking in place with your tie or rubber.
Put your secured filled bag in your tub and start running hot water over it to help release its herbs as you prepare the bath.
Stop filling the tub with hot water after it’s a third full before reducing the water temperature to just warm. Before you jump in, test the water first to be on the safe side so it’s not too hot.
