The next
time you need to get clean from a day of hard work, how about
you skip that shower in favor of a bath. Some people argue
that a bath won’t get them as clean as a shower. Others simply
convince themselves that they don’t have time for a bath. But
regardless of your reasons I have a secret to share with you that none
of the bath lovers will tell you because they are too busy soaking. A bath
might be better for you in more ways than you think. I’m going to share 5
reasons why a bath is better than a shower and maybe after I do you’ll finally
go get that bath for your bathroom.
- According to dermatologists taking
baths can help reduce aging. Talk about the fountain of youth! Taking a
bath also helps reduce adult acne. How is this possible? Well, taking a bath
helps reduce cortisol; a stress hormone that can lead to an
increase in adult acne and can hasten the aging process. Keep in mind, however,
that it is important to moisturize after the bath to ensure you get the full benefits. - Taking baths can help
relieve sore muscles. To help sore or tired muscles recover, heat is
usually a vital tool. Taking a hot bath helps you regulate and also evenly
distribute the application of the heat to your body muscles. Bath
additives such as Epsom salts can also be used for an increased healing effect. - Baths can be just as clean
as showers! A common misconception that people have
is that a bath won’t get you as clean as a shower. But this isn’t the case. Unless you’ve been involved in some strenuous activity
that causes you to sweat a lot (or you work in a mine), a bath will do just as
good a job cleaning you
up as a shower. In fact, allowing time for your body to
soak will help the water and the bath soap to break down dirt and also open up
your pores. - Baths could help you lower
your blood sugar levels. In case your doctor has advised
that you watch your sugar levels, taking a bath could be a good option for
you. Research conducted by scientists in the UK suggests that taking a hot bath
could help lower your blood
sugar levels. Of course, taking hot baths should never
replace a healthy diet and regular exercise, but you would do well to try this
out for yourself. - Baths are great stress
relievers. I mean, need I say more? Taking a bath tends
to get you to slow down and enjoy the moment. Taking a warm bath helps increase
blood circulation, calm your nerves and this also releases endorphins that will
help you feel better and help relieve stress built up during the day. Add scented
candles and essential oils and get lost in the sensations of the experience.
Bonus point;
Baths are good for your skin: I think this one is
pretty obvious at this point. Take a bath with some useful additives and
moisturize after and your skin will visibly thank you.
