This is a tea scented blessed bath oil to calm, soothe, moisturise dry winter skin, and make you feel like the goddess you are during your bath time ritual. With simple ingredients you probably have in you pantry or can find at a local health food shop.
Ingredients:
10gr Dry Chamomile Flowers
5gr Dry Calendula Flowers
5gr Dry Hippophaes Berries
200ml Grapeseed or Sunflower Oil
7 Drops of Lavender Essential Oil
*please be mindful if you have allergies to any of the above flowers or ingredients.
Method:
Place all ingredients apart from lavender into a Bain-marie and simmer on low for 45 minutes.
This bath oil is made using a steeping method so it is important to keep the lid on the whole time. By keeping the lid on you trap the steam of the flowers and therefore infuse you oil better.
Use a chux or muslin cloth to stain and pour into a bottle and add lavender drops.
Let it cool and charge on your alter.
I have charged mine on a grid board, with tea light candles and crystals placed around.
You can tie a charm with string around the bottle, I have chosen a simple made with love charm to attach.
I have also placed an oracle card representing blessings of Brigid’s Fame to bring in her energy, to honour her and the element of fire as Imbolc is approaching soon.
Light the tea light candles and let them burn all the way.
Your bath oil is ready!
Some suggestions to make indulge and enjoy your bath ritual:
I personally like creating a pleasing atmosphere by lighting candles, placing crystals, having something to represent all of the elements, and music or a guided meditation also works.
Pour a generous amount into your warm bath and soak in all the magic.
I like to sensually massage the oil on my skin while I’m in the bath as it absorbs better and is a practice of self love.
Towel dry your skin and message any excess oil into you skin.
Brew yourself a cup of herbal tea and surrender to the end of your bath ritual.
I hope you senses enjoy this recipe!
Blessed be,
