Taking a Rainbow Flower Bath is a powerful self-care treatment. By rehydrating the flowers, seeds, buds, leaves, pistols, stamens - you are turning your bathwater into an amazing flower essence that contains every color of the rainbow. This can be extremely helpful during times of extreme stress, overwhelm and depression. Immersing yourself in a beautiful garden of flowers like this can bring you back to a balanced and relaxed state.
Also know that taking this bath and enjoying yourself in it becomes a powerful form of active meditation which is excellent for times when you're restless, and having a hard time sitting or concentrating and need to clear your head. By simply observing, touching, appreciating, breathing in the flowers in your bath, you're using your senses to be fully in the present moment or being mindful, and this is meditation. It's a form of active meditation which is much easier to do versus silent sitting meditation especially when we're restless and unable to sit still.
When all of our chakras or emotion centers are enveloped in Nature's healing magic in this way we're brought back to a state of equilibrium, and experience a greater sense of peace and safety. Not only are these baths an exquisite way to thank yourself for taking much needed time out for yourself, but they're also incredibly helpful when it comes to gaining fresh, new perspectives and understandings about life creating momentum needed to move forward when we've been feeling stuck.
There are instructional videos you can watch here that show you in detail how I run a Flower Bath, and if interested you can read a beautifully written description of meditation can be found HERE.
PLEASE NOTE: There have been times in my life that I've felt so low that I couldn't take care of my personal hygiene let alone run a bath for myself so if you know someone who is in a similar situation a great thing to do would be to run the bath for them so all they need to do is just get in.
Rainbow Flower Bath : All Chakras : Equilibrium
- Run the bath water and feel free to add salts or oils. I usually add 2 cups of epsom salt to help with sore muscles.
- Once the tub is full, get in and gently pour the sachet of flowers into the water around you.
- Re-hydrate the dried flowers by gently gathering them together and submerging them into the water and letting them rise back to the top of the water again.
- Once the flowers are hydrated take a moment to observe the them at all their magical stages of life - there are full flowers, flower buds, seeds, stamens, pistons, and even leaves - notice their fascinating colors, forms, textures.
- You can also gather them together in your hands and place them over your throat, shoulders, heart and face as this is an amazing way of absorbing Nature's healing magic right into your system.
- When you're ready to get out of the bath, use a strainer to strain off all the flowers first, because you don't want them to go down your drain and they make great compost material.
- After you towel off apply some Fae, Flower & Stone skin/face/body care and thank yourself for taking the time to care for you, a most precious being on this planet.
Each Rainbow Flower Bath sachet contains 1/2 oz of hand harvested and hand dried flowers, seeds, buds, pistols, stamens and leaves of every color of the rainbow that have been blooming in the Scottsdale, Arizona area for one full year from Spring 2024 - Summer 2025.
