Getting Things Ready For That Steam

• Clean And Declutter:

Nothing can ruin a romantic mood like dirt and clothes strewn all over. When you clean the inside of your tub, and around it, makes way for peace of mind and soul. Elemenating unwanted distractions that would take away from focusing on your Cupid time.

• Candles

Having candles placed in or around the bathing area will set the ambiance for that steam. Any shape or form, tea lights. Just make sure they are not tall and slender ones. These will tip over and that would really dampen your mood for good.

It will be up to you if the candles are scented or not. The main thing I feel is the warm glow that emits from the candle, that sets that romantic feeling. The scents are just icing in the air.

• Mood Music

The sound of music have been around for a very long time, even in it’s rawest form have been recognized to alter our moods.

Not one type or style of music invokes romance for everyone. Some people might like ocean music for romance. While others might prefer blues, or jazz. What ever the style make sure the quality is good. You may find that using a sound machine may help. Or maybe a soundtrack with good a quality sound. Whatever the form, make it count.

• Make It Scentual

ESSENTIAL OILS

The art of using plants for it’s roots, essence, flowers, and pressing them have been around for a long time.

The essential oils that were extracted were used as aphrodisiacs to inspire allure and desire.

There are a wide range of essential oils that aid in sensuality.

Lavender essential oil for example decreases anxiety and stress. Calming also to help you wind down for that romance.

Other essential oils to consider are; Ylang Ylang, Patchouli if your man might think that Lavender is to girly.

The diffuser pictured above not only is filled with essential oils, but it has differnt lights that appear and you can set the essential oils on a timer for 1 -6 hours. And also if you don’t want the lights you can turn these off as well. I love these diffusers so much I have two of them.

• Bubble Bath OR Bath Oil

Bubble baths aren’t just for women. There are some men out there that take baths /bubble baths. Some say that the reason they do so is

to relax tense muscles. And who would blame them. Myself, I prefer a bath to a shower anyday.

Try Rose, or Lavender scented bubble baths.

Bath Oils

Using bath oils in the bath can be a sketchy thing. Just remember that you don’t need a lot. Slippery, but fun and sensual to use as a body massager to knead out those sore muscles for later use.

• Sugar IT Up

Sugar Scrubs

These are a blend of table sugar, essential oils, carrier oils Ex: (Grapeseed Oil). When rubbed on the skin it feels heavenly.

The sugar exfoliates the rough, dry patches. Leaving you with a smooth and silky feeling.

So why not massage one another with this and both of you can feel soft and smooth to the touch.

• Privacy

If you have kids, pets, make sure everyone is down for the night. If this isn’t possible then I suggest that maybe ask Grandparents to watch kids for a night, or check into a hotel. Either way there will be for sure there won’t be any possiblities of being interupted. But still no phones , you can silence them or turn them off.

Make Time

Ups And Downs Of Life

I know that everyone has a busy life. With kids, afterschool activities, PTA stuff, deadlines.

But just remember that we all have to make a conscious decision to slow down once in awhile to stop and focus on the ones that really matter in our lives. Be it spouses or kids,parents, grandparents. We are here on this earth for a very short time. Not knowing when tonight might be our last.

Tell that person in your life who ever it might be that you Love them. It’s the little things that count
