What better way to unwind than with a hot, soapy bubble bath? Bubble Bath Day encourages you to relax – light the candles, play some soothing music and lose yourself in a favorite book for an hour or so.
Bubble Bath Day 2014 as always is on January 8th, 2014
Bubble baths are so much fun. We wish everyday could be Bubble Bath Day. Bubble Bath Day is a fun day to relax an enjoy the warm and soothing pleasures of a bubble bath. Best of all, it can be enjoyed by kids and adults.
For kids, it's playtime. For adults, it's soothing pleasure, and perhaps ....playtime.
On Bubble Bath Day, there are a couple of ways to enjoy your bubble bath. It depends upon how old you are.
For kids, it's simple.... Just fill the tub with bubbles and toys. Then hop in and play!
For the ladies, its time to relax! Fill the tub with bubbly water. Hop in and just enjoy the soothing water and bubbles. Before hoping in, set the mood with candles placed (safely) around the bathroom and tub. Add a music, playing softly on the sink counter.
For the guys: Don't feel left out! With permission, you can hop in, too! Get in touch with your feminine side, and make sure the candles are lit. You can relax and/or play. The proper sequence is relax, play, relax. We highly recommend both!
Here are tips to help you avoid the problems associated with bubble baths and to reap the benefits.
The Benefits
Hot water increases blood circulation to the skin and increases the flow of oxygen, which is great when you have sore muscles and stiff joints.
Hot water opens up the pores and helps release toxins from the body.
Along with candles, the right scent, and soothing music, the warm water is simply heavenly, especially at end of the day.
Precautions
Avoid frequent hot baths. When the water is too hot the heat breaks down the skin barrier and makes it more prone to irritation and dryness, according to dermatologist Dr. Jean Ho.
According to the Mayo Clinic, taking frequent hot baths can also lead to vaginitis, an inflammation of the vaginal area. A common form is a yeast infection. Hot baths don’t actually cause yeast infections but can cause you to become susceptible to them.
Also avoid very hot baths if you have circulation problems, high blood pressure, diabetes, heart disease and are pregnant. If you can’t climb into the top comfortably, (and you tend to feel itchiness afterwards) it’s probably too hot. The water should be close to body temperature. When in doubt, consult your doctor about whether hot baths are safe for you.
