Everyone could use more relaxation, especially these days with so much going on.  What better place to relax and do a little meditation than your bathtub?  The idea of sinking chin deep into a luxurious bubble bath is relaxing all on its own.  Once you combine this with a few relaxation and meditation techniques, however, your bathtub becomes more than a place to soak.  It becomes a place of peace and rejuvenation.  Pelham and White have just the tub to help create the perfect space for you to practice your relaxation techniques.

Use Aromatherapy Products

Aromatherapy is a popular technique to encourage relaxation and aid in meditation.  Different scents, such as lavender, promote relaxation and a sense of calmness.  Aromatherapy products come in a wide range of scents and items ranging from bath bombs to bubble baths, from oils to different scented Epsom salt, and much more.  Take the time to find the scents that appeal to you and create a sense of peace when you inhale them.  The use of aromatherapy can be a valuable technique in the road to relaxation.  So grab your favorite scent and let it make your bath time all the more relaxing and enjoyable.

Meditation Techniques

Whether you are experienced in meditation or just beginning, meditation on any level is good for your overall health and well-being.  If you have never done any meditation previously, perhaps a guided meditation is a good place to start.  There are many good meditation apps, such as Insight Timer, that can help you as you begin your meditation journey.  You simply download the app to your phone (make sure it doesn't fall in the tub of course) and let the meditation guide lead you through a practice that will help you relax and get the most from your time in your tub.  If you are already experienced in meditation, take the time to go through your practice while staying the present and allowing the water to naturally help you relax.  Your tub will become a haven of peace and relaxation.

Stay in the Moment

The most important technique for relaxation and meditation in your bathtub is to stay in the moment.  This is much easier said than done.  Distractions are all around us and it is easy to get interrupted.  Interruptions, however, will disturb not just your meditation, but also the relaxation you are trying to create.  Block off time on your calendar for your time in the tub.  Make sure your phone's ringer is off, the other people in your home know you are unavailable, and let yourself melt into the steaming hot water.  Once in the tub, try not to allow invasive thoughts and ideas into your space.  If thoughts pop up, simply let them go, like clouds passing through the sky.  Do a body scan and work to feel every part of your body and notice how it feels in the water.  By staying in the moment you will get the most from your time in your tub.

Relaxation is more important now that it ever was before.  One of the most effective places for relaxation is the bathtub.  By combining relaxation and meditation techniques you can expand your degree of relaxation exponentially.  The three techniques mentioned above can help you make the most of your time in your bathtub and help to transform your tub into a place of peace.  Pelham and White have just the tub to help foster your sense of peace, happiness, and relaxation.  Contact them today for more information on how to find the perfect tub for your journey to relaxation.
