I'm on a major green tea kick right now. I brew it fresh and have several varieties -- yes, Japanese sencha, also several chinese varieties and one indian variety. And now am hooked to Tea baths as well! Guess I'm a green tea snob!

Tea really help sooth your body, mind, and spirit, while drawing out harmful toxins from the body and healing any open wounds or sores. Tea baths are very nourishing to the body as well because they are filled with helpful powerful antioxidants and vitamins that the body needs to stop signs of aging.

How to take a Tea Bath

All you need to do is grab 4-6 tea bags and place them in a tub of hot, hot water for ten minutes. The bath water will turn a golden brown or dark brown color and these will let you know the antioxidants and vitamins have been released into your bath. Wait to get into the bath until it is just right and hot enough for you. Once you are in the bath soak in it for as long as possible and grab magazines to help keep you busy while you relax. Another thing you could do before you get into the bath is light a few candles to help set a peaceful atmosphere to really get the full benefits of a relaxing Tea bath. I usually spend thirty to forty minutes in a warm green tea bath because I enjoy relaxing and the health benefits the Tea bath provides to me.

Another wonderful things a Tea bath can do is draw out harmful toxins and chemicals from your body. Taking a Tea bath can even help lift up your spirits and relax your mind because its full of happy B vitamins that really help improve your mood making you more relaxed and happier. Tea baths even help cleanse, tone, and fight the signs of aging and fatigue on your body, which is what some of us are always trying to do and are always spending our money on. I mean who thought cleansing, toning, fighting the signs of aging and fatigue could be so inexpensive and easy by simply taking Tea baths a few times a month!
