If I want to get really relaxed or need to hard-reset my energy I love to listen to tapes in the bath. Tapes are my favorite audio format other than CD because the vibrations hit in such a physical way. When youā€™re in the bath it gives the sound perfect reverb, and the tape warble seems to bounce off of the steam in the air.. it feels like magic. My favorite tape is the Emma Kirkby Collection, which I found in my parents basement. Itā€™s a collection of stunning baroque & medieval music. When Columba Aspexit by Hildegard Von Bingen comes on I am possessed. I couldnā€™t find this release on any streaming services in the US so I bought the CD on eBay and (allegedly) made a rip to share the magic with my friends (or anyone who asks ;)... ). I also add Dr. Singhaā€™s mustard bath to the mix if I really want to levitate.

Life can be stressful. When you want to unwind, I highly recommend you get in the bath, put headphones on (with caution, works best with wireless) and play Gram Parsons. A speaker also works but something about the music going straight into my ears in the bath is kind of life changing.

~So Iā€™ve gotten into taking baths. I canā€™t explain it but it feels more analog. I used to think of it as a more time consuming option but now I feel itā€™s actually more efficient. The pressure of designating time for it to be both functional and experiential leads to letting myself get bored, which brings about a clear but gentle conclusion. Boredom is a luxury. I used to think new thoughts so often out of boredom, but now it feels like Iā€™m trying to be productive or Iā€™ve left my body entirely, so Iā€™ve been leaning in to get back to active boredom. There are plenty of ways to make it an experience. The only time Iā€™ll drink ice in a drink is in a bath, because effectively youā€™re already a soup. So drinking la croix or gatorade on ice in the bath is a crazy experience to feel your guts being all cold and your skin being warm. A good way to get back into my body is to make it the intersection of polarizing temperatures. I also love the idea of robes but I canā€™t figure out when Iā€™m meant to wear one, and the best I can tell is around bathtime. I love putting the Dr Teals Lavender salts right under the faucet because it either dissolves them or disperses them from jump as itā€™s filling, and then the Almond Cleansing Oil from Trader Joes is a moisturizing option for your cleansing tasks that take place as youā€™re brining your body in salt.

Iā€™ve never been to a sensory deprivation tank so I just recreate the spirit of it this way. I usually have the shower run to let the bath fill up for some nice ambient noise. A bath is truly the washing machine of the soul

Best underwear ever. 100% organic cotton and super soft. Understated but still sexy.Ā  I love the string bikini. Iā€™m trying to replace all of my underwear and most of my clothes with natural fibers.

If you know anything about anythingā€¦ you know that gut health is the ultimate wealth. It is literally the foundation of everything related to health and wellness. Mental health, physical health.. if you donā€™t have a robust gut microbiome you will be suffering somehow. I have probably taken upwards of 100 courses of antibiotics in my life which is not only insane but also super bad for you / your gut. Iā€™ve been trying to go hard re-populating my gut with the good stuff and Bio-k is one of my favorite ways to do so. Itā€™s expensive as fuck but itā€™s super powerful and Iā€™m addicted to the taste. I want them to sponsor me. The best flavor is the vegan blueberry made with rice.

If youā€™re a person on the go, always stay strapped with a purse treat. There will always be a moment where you need to lift your spirits or raise your energy levels. Itā€™s also nice to have something you can share with other people that sparks joy. Iā€™m trying really hard to work on my sugar addiction but the purse treat is something I canā€™t really give up. Iā€™m like the epitome of that meme thatā€™s like ā€œif I donā€™t have a yummy treat every couple of hours my condition worsensā€ lol. My go-to treats are dark choc coconut bars, justinā€™s pb cups, & barnana dark choc covered bananas šŸ˜›
