Step-by-Step Guide to the Self-Love Bath Ritual

Having prepared all your materials and set your space, the next steps will have you connecting with your inner strength and beauty. 

Set up the Self-Love Bath: 

Fill your bathtub with warm water-usually at your body’s temperature. As it fills, add in a handful of rose petals, a few drops of lavender oil, and a scoop of sea salt. Gently stir in the element mix, allowing their energies to release.

Light the Pink Candle:

Place the pink candle safely, near your bath, where it will not be disturbed while you are soaking. Now light the candle and take your time to stare at the flame of the candle for it symbolises beauty within you and the love towards yourself.

Enter Self-Love Bath:

Slowly lower yourself into the bath, your body immersed in this love- and peace-filled water. Close your eyes, take a few deep breaths, and let the warmth surround you. Visualise yourself surrounded by a comforting, radiating light—a glow of self-acceptance and confidence.

State Your Affirmations:

As you soak, repeat this affirmation aloud or in your mind:

“I am love, I am worthy.”

Feel the resonance of those words in your body. With every breath, take the affirmation deeper, further and more deeply reinforcing your sense of self-love and personal value.

Visualise Self-Confidence:

Picture yourself as confident and warm, embracing your own worth and beauty. See yourself walking through life with ease and assurance. Allow this visualisation to fill your energy with positive belief in oneself.

Close the Ritual:

When you are ready, slowly get out of the bath, letting the water drain away, along with those self-doubts. Gently towel-dry to continue maintaining the self-love and take it with you to proceed with your day or evening.

After the Ritual: Cultivating Self-Love Daily

This bath ritual is a potent moment of self-care, but true self-love is a continuing process. Here are one or two ways to carry this energy forward into daily life:

• Daily Affirmations: Begin each day with a daily affirmation to remind yourself of your value and strength.

• Mindfulness Check-in: Give yourself the right to check in with yourself as to how you are doing, if you are growing in the direction of self-acceptance and love.
