#WholeWomanChallenge Week 1: Take A Bath (or a really awesome shower).

I’m so excited to get started on our Whole Woman Summer Challenge!

To start off this first week, I want to invite you to slow down with me. Summer, like winter, is a slower paced season. A time to unwind from all the action of the last few months. You deserve the downtime, every day of the week. There is nothing better than taking half an hour out of your day to lounge in the tub. Treat yo’self. You deserve it.

Today’s Whole Woman Challenge Week 1: Take a Bath (or a really awesome shower)

This week, I want you to make time to take a bath. It might be just for 5-10 minutes and that’s ok. You can just fill up the tub and get in, or here are a few ideas to enhance it. When I pimp out my bath with the things below, I transform it from a chaotic bathroom strewn with bath toys from bathing my two insane toddlers, to a gorgeous spa.

1. Set the stage. Gather beauty from around your home. Grab a basket or bag and collect candles, plants, flowers, books, or any other beautiful objects you want to have.
2. Draw your bath and add bath salts, or even some sea salt from your pantry.
3. I often will have roses around the house and will add some rose petals to the water.  It makes me feel like Aphrodite, so open-hearted and feminine. Roses are POWERFUL.
4. Add a few drops of essential oil.
5. Light some candles and turn off the lights.
6. Play music. I love Ayla Nereo. Or you can search “Spa Music” on Pandora or Spotify.

**If you don’t  have a tub, no problem. Maybe you can light some candles, put some essential oil on your shower head, turn off the lights, put on some incredible music and have a Goddess Shower.  Get creative. 🙂

I’d love to hear how it’s going. Can’t wait to see those bath pics on Instagram. Remember to tag me @sarahjenks and #WholeWomanChallenge! Don’t drop your phone. 😉

Love,
Sarah

P.S. Want a partner in crime? I think it’s so much more fun to do challenges in community. If you know someone in your life who’d have fun with the challenge this summer, please send them here to sign up and join you: SarahJenks.com/summerchallenge.
