Healing Beer Bath

Healing Beer Bath

Beer is not just for drinking!  This tasty liquid is also great for your skin and hair.  The miracle ingredient in beer is hops.  Use this healing beer bath to draw out your impurities, clean out your pores, and help you relax.

Hops helps to exfoliate the skin by getting rid of the dead cells in the upper layer.   The yeast in the beer contains B vitamins which help purify and renew your skin while keeping moisture in.  Also, beer yeast helps aid in getting rid of acne causing bacteria while helping with the elasticity of your skin.  The warm water of this healing bath motivates your pores to open and stimulates your circulatory system.

Ingredients:

2 cups of beer (any kind will do)
1 warm bath

Directions:

Draw a warm bath and add the 2 cups of beer.  Relax in your bath. :)

Beer spas have become a trend in Europe.  Hopefully it catches on soon here in the US!

Enjoy!

Turmeric Healing Bath

Turmeric Healing Bath

Turmeric is more commonly known for its use in Indian and Pakistani curries.  The spice also has many healing properties as well which include anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties.  This is where the healing bath comes in!  If you’ve had a long day and your muscles and joints are achy, you can indulge yourself in a quick home made bath that will help soothe your aching joints.  (Also, if you’re suffering from acne, turmeric helps to unclog pores and remove scars and pigmentation).

Ingredients:

1/2 cup of turmeric powder. You can buy this if you don't have any: Marshalls Creek Spices Turmeric Powder
warm bath

Directions:

Add the turmeric powder to a warm bath and soak in it for about 15 minutes.

The turmeric will stain your clothes so remember to keep everything away from it. That being said, it will also turn your bath tub a yellowish hue, but bleach or any other cleaning agents will take care of that. Your skin will stain but not noticeably and the stain does wash away.

Remember to relax and take some time out for yourself for your home treatments.  Try lighting some candles (safely) and turn on some relaxing music.  Healing is done as much through the mind as through the body.
