June 11, 2010 Written by TaylorH
Had a long week? Exhausted from all those emails? Sick of having your phone glued to your ear? Granny Goat says, “Take a bath!”
Granny Goat knows just the right ingredients for a relaxing and rejuvenating bath…
Ingredients:
(an ingredient for each day of the week)
1… One Bag of Sweet Nothings Bath Salts
2… Two Towels
3… Three Deep breathes
4… Four Places you want to visit
5… Five People who have made a difference in your life
6… Six Reasons you love your life
7… Seven Things that make you happy
*Note: Stress and cell phones are not invited to this bath!
Reason Behind Each Ingredient:
Sweet Nothings Goat Milk Bath Salts- the sweet scent of these bath salts will turn a normal bath into a spa experience. These bath salts are made with Dead Sea Salts to detoxify, Goat Milk to nourish, blend of bath oils to moisturize, and pure essential oils and herbs to sooth the senses.

Towels- having two towels is decadent and wonderful. For an extra treat put them through the dryer for 10 minutes.
Take a deep breathe- deep breathing releases endorphins, helps clear the mind and can reduce stress. With the first breathe imagine a burst of endorphins. Take another deep breathe and clear your mind. Take one more breathe and let your stress go away. (Granny wants to remind you to keep breathing!)
Places you want to visit- sometimes we get so busy with our day to day schedule it is hard to dream or even think about taking vacation time. So enjoy the fantasy and plan your ideal trip to the four locations of your choice.
People who made a difference- it is important to recognize people who have had a positive impact in your life. Take the time to recognize and appreciate all they have done for you.
Reasons you love your life- sometimes it is easier to focus on the negative things and complain… but that is not allowed in this bath! Think of at least six reasons why you love your life.
Happiness- it comes in many forms and is different for everyone. Great pumpkin pie, a new toothbrush, Christmas cards, red lipstick, a hand written letter, cold glass of ice tea and watching Singing in the Rain makes Granny Goat happy. Think of your list and then make a point to find a way to incorporate at least one of those into your busy week.
Enjoy. Relax. Love.
