- make the bath water warm/hot
- 3 or 4 candles that are scented
- a CD player with relaxing sounds (ocean waves, birds, rain and thunder etc.)
- have the lights partially off, or only have the candles used for lights
- sit in the bathtub, close you're eyes for 5 minutes.. then open them and you'll feel tired and relaxed.
- take a pillow and cover it with a towel and put it under you're head
- make bubbles in the bathtub
- take slow and deep breaths
Here are some spa ideas-
- for nails, file them and then paint them any color you want
- for face masks
Egg Yolk and Honey
I often use an egg yolk and honey mask. Just mix one egg yolk with a little honey and spread it on your face and neck. When it dries, rinse it off. Your skin will feel so fresh and soft!
- pedicure- put cream on you're feet, and then cut you're nails, then file them if you want to, and then paint them any color you want

But when you go in the bathtub take a small towel, like one of the ones you dry your hands with and put it over your stomach. It feels so nice and it keeps your body REALLLLY warm which is good. Maybe you'll sweat out all the ickyness!

First of all i'm sorry that you are sick. And a way to have a nice relaxing bath is to set 2 or 3 candels along the bath, with a nice soft scent, put some lavender bubble bath in (if you have it) put on some of your favorite tunes, grab a book and sit back and relax. Soak your hand in some water and scrub your hand with some salt and wash it off again and do your cuticles and what not and paint them, have some fun with it do a crazy design. And as far as a face mask use and avocat recipe.
