Sometimes, the best part of the day is shutting the door, running a hot bath, and tuning everything out for a while. It’s one of the easiest ways to feel like you’ve carved out a moment for yourself. According to a study by the Benchmarking Company, 93% of women surveyed gave “relaxation” as a reason for taking a bath. (Oddly enough, only 31% mentioned “getting clean” was a reason for bathing.)

If you already enjoy a good soak, it’s worth making that time even better. A few small changes can go a long way toward turning a regular bath into something that feels like a real break.

8 Ways to Make the Most of your Bath time

1. ### **Make Sure Your Bath Is Clean and Safe**
   
   Most of us don’t think of the bathroom as a dangerous place, but bathroom slips and falls are a significant risk, especially for seniors. To maximize safety, place non-slip mats or stickers on the bottom of the tub to keep your feet from slipping while entering and exiting the tub. Ensuring your tub is clean and sanitized for the best experience is equally important.
2. ### **Know How Long to Bathe**
   
   Baths can be soothing and an excellent way to unwind, but they can be unhealthy if you stay in the water too long. Remember the signs posted next to public hot tubs about the maximum time limit in the water? The same applies to your bath at home. Bath times should be limited to around ten or twenty minutes. Longer hot water soaks can cause skin dehydration, which can lead to dryness and cracking. Prolonged exposure to hot water can also cause dizziness, lightheadedness, and overheating, especially in older adults.
   
   To ensure you don't lose track of time, set a timer, alarm clock, or cellphone nearby so you can know when to get out. However, be very careful to keep plugged-in electrical devices well away from the water.
3. ### **Know The Perfect Water Temperature**
   
   With age, our skin becomes more sensitive. That means hotter temperatures can cause burns, inflammation, dizziness, nausea, and dry skin. The ideal temperature for a warm yet comfortable bath is 98 to 100 degrees Fahrenheit, right around normal body temperature.
4. ### **Use The Right Tools**
   
   A few simple tools can make a big difference in how relaxing and enjoyable your bath feels. An inflatable bath pillow supports your neck and keeps you comfortable while you soak. A soft washcloth or loofah helps gently exfoliate your skin, while a plush towel waiting nearby makes the transition out of the tub more pleasant. If you really want to elevate the experience, a bath tray that stretches across the tub gives you a safe, dry place to rest a book, drink, or candle.

5. ### **Add to the Water**
   
   To enhance your bath experience, try things like bath salts, essential oils, bath bombs, bath bars, or other pampering add-ins. Including a little Epsom salt in your bathwater will not only relax muscles and soothe your skin, but it also reduces inflammation and eases symptoms of arthritis, lupus, and fibromyalgia.
6. ### **Try Music, Scents, or Candles**
   
   Sometimes our bathrooms can seem pretty dull. So, try adding a little ambiance to upgrade your bath experience. Bring a battery-powered radio or Bluetooth speaker and play some calming tunes. Maybe burn a few candles (safely), spray some essential oils in the air, or add them to your bathwater. You'll shortly find that just a few additions to bathing will take you to a new level of paradise.
7. ### **Reading in the Tub**
   
   Whether you like to relax with a novel or stay up to date with current events, reading is one of the best activities to enjoy while bathing. Whether you use a book, magazine, or waterproof e-reader in the tub, cozying up with your favorite read in warm, soapy water will take you to a world of relaxation and peace. Experienced in-the-tub readers swear by bathtub trays that span over the water to provide a convenient, dry space for reading material, drinks, or a small towel.
8. ### **Moisturize Afterward**
   
   Even if we don’t linger in the tub too long, dry skin can still pose a problem. To stay moisturized, use a soft towel to dry off completely, then apply lotion. Also, always make sure to drink water to replenish the moisture removed by the bath.

Bath time is an excellent opportunity for self-care. The best way is to surround ourselves with things that make us feel serene and relaxed. Scented candles, essential oils, atmospheric music, and the perfect water temperature can take those precious minutes in the tub to another level.
