National Bathtub Day 2024

Today is #NationalBathtubDay, and since it’s also #HoodooHeritageMonth, why not take a spiritual bath?

A spiritual bath is a ritual cleansing practice that uses water, herbs, oils, and other sacred elements to clear your body and spirit of negative energy, blockages, or impurities. If you’re an experienced herbalist or Hoodooist (I like to call these folks “Kitchen Witches”), you can create your own bath. However, I highly recommend a bath from #DrKelleyPageJibrell—she makes incredibly powerful baths for various purposes.

If you don’t have a Kitchen Witch in your life, here’s a simple recipe to try:

s you prepare your bath, ground yourself by clearing your energy space and playing some inspiring music. Set your intention for the bath. Keep in mind that a spiritual bath may not always be glamorous, but it’s deeply effective.

Here’s a basic recipe to start:

  • Epsom salt
  • Baking soda
  • Lavender essential oil
  • Citrus slices
  • A sprig of rosemary

This combination works well for general clearing. You can also add milk and rose petals if you feel called to do so.

Let me know how it turns out!
