DRAW MYSELF A BATH AND ASK MYSELF QUESTIONS LIKE I AM A SMALL CHILD

dude i will take like 3-4 baths a day if that’s what i need (i don’t pay for water)! i always start with a bath. it’s my reset button, it always grounds me. then i’ll ask “okay what do you need right now? what will feel good?” then i wait for an answer

@valoorie

now this sounds delightful !! I did just wash my hair and I think that helped. I think water does a lot for resetting your body and your mind.

@VALOORIE so much of culture assigns a spiritual quality to water and i think there’s definitely something to that! naturally settling. i was also born in a bathtub lol so there’s that

~So I’ve gotten into taking baths. I can’t explain it but it feels more analog. I used to think of it as a more time consuming option but now I feel it’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 I’m trying to be productive or I’ve left my body entirely, so I’ve been leaning in to get back to active boredom. There are plenty of ways to make it an experience. The only time I’ll drink ice in a drink is in a bath, because effectively you’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 can’t figure out when I’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 it’s filling, and then the Almond Cleansing Oil from Trader Joes is a moisturizing option for your cleansing tasks that take place as you’re brining your body in salt.

Bubble Baths

One of the coping mechanisms that my therapist has given me is to radically change my body temperature when I feel overwhelmed. This could be a cold shower or a piping hot bath. I usually choose the bath. Taking the time out of my day to light a candle, smoke a joint, and remember to relax is my saving grace. I love spending this time with myself to decompress from a long day and find so much comfort in the solitude. It's my way of putting a Do Not Disturb sign on my life.

only taking bubble baths

why would i stand to bathe ? turning off the faucet with my toe makes me feel so regal. epsom salts with eucalyptus. my body is working hard, i deserve to soak. my roommates can wait. bring bath toys (make sure waterproof), a kindle, a candle, maybe even some blue gatorade. fuck it!

DRINKING WATER FROM A 32 OZ JAR

It holds the perfect amount of water. You’ll never be parched again if you drink out of a 32 ounce jar. That’s a little under 1 liter for those who grew up using normal and better methods of measurement.
