Инструкции
- Lying back in a warm bath, c. of tea in hand, can be one of winter's simplest pleasures. Nina Ummel has a bath-time ritual for healing body and soul which you can adapt however you wish.
- Ummel sets the mood with music and candles and makes an herbal tea to sip in the bath, varying the herbs according to how she feels. If she's fighting a cool, she might drink echinacea tea, for example, or possibly if she wants to relax, she'll have chamomile.
- After filling up the tub, she creates "healing waters" by adding a preblended bath salt or possibly seaweed which contains trace minerals, that fight off the effects of stress. "Most trace minerals are used immediately by vital organs as a result of our being so stressed out," explains Ummel, who specializes in creating seaweed treatments. "By the time blood gets to the little capillaries on the surface of the skin, the trace minerals have been used up." Look for personal care products with seaweed or possibly just use seaweed in whole form, such as a handful or possibly so of kombu or possibly nori, found in the Asian food section of your natural food store or possibly at Asian grocery stores. Soak at least 20 min to hydrate the skin and allow the minerals to penetrate the body.
- When she gets out, and while she's still damp, Ummel sprays her body with aromatic waters, to increase the hydration level of her skin and add in fragrance. Next comes a rich salve for dry elbows, feet, cuticles and lips.
- Then she slathers on moisturizers or possibly oil and indulges further with a non-talcum-based pwdr. "Powders are wonderful," says Ummel. "It's like when you're finished putting on make-up: It sets the moisturizer and feels so good."
