The Oatmeal Way
How to take an oatmeal bath: Fill a knee-high nylon or thin sock without holes with 1/2 to 1 c. of oatmeal (not quick cooking or instant). Tie tightly at the top. Place it in your warm bath, with you, and squeeze it softly every so often to release the oatmeal “water.” Before leaving the bathtub, scrub your entire body lightly with the sock. To clean: Over a trash can, turn the sock inside out and scrape all of the oatmeal off the outside, then rinse well with warm water. Wash as normal.

Herbal Bath
- Sage: Uplifting, calming and astringent
- Rosemary: Relaxing, clarifying, alertness, also an astringent
- Peppermint: Energizing (or relaxing) and clarifying
- Chamomile: Extremely relaxing and calming
- Green Tea: Energizing and mood stabilizing – also antioxidant, antiaging, and very healing for any skin type
Or, of course, you could use things like lavender, rose petals, calendula, orange peels … the list goes on and on.
How to take an herbal bath: While you could make little herbal bath bags, my new favorite way is to brew a very strong tea ahead of time using the herbs (and essential oils, if I want an extra kick). Brew 1-2 cups of very strong herbal tea. Strain and add it to your running bathwater. Then, take the remaining brewed herbs and place them in the middle of a washcloth. Gather the washcloth together at the top and tie tightly with a string or a hair tie. Leave it in the bath as you soak, and then scrub well with it before getting out of the tub.

Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish
" You've got to find what you love. And that is a true for your work as it is for your lovers. Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't seattle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it." - Steve Jobs
Life well lived, Steve Jobs! You added so much to this world! Thank you!
