Traditional Eastern Medicine Insights

In TCM, gardenia and safflower are classic botanicals historically included in formulas associated with supporting healthy circulation and promoting a sense of release.

• Gardenia (Zhi Zi) — historically included in formulas associated with supporting healthy circulation and promoting a sense of release
• Safflower (Hong Hua) — valued in bath preparations for creating a restorative environment that supports unwinding after exertion

Southern Folk Craft Roots

Southern folk practice has long used herbal baths to wash off the day after labor, travel, or demanding seasons of life.

• Arnica — a well-known folk ally for hardworking bodies, commonly prepared as a bath or poultice after physical exertion
• Lavender — used to soften the edges of stress and help the spirit settle back into place

Scent and Sensory Experience

Aroma: calming lavender with soft floral depth and earthy undertones. The bath takes on a warm, botanically rich quality as the herbs steep, leaving you feeling settled and ready for rest.

How to Use

Place a portion of the blend into the included muslin bag and steep in warm bathwater for a slow, aromatic soak. For a stronger infusion, gently simmer the herbs on the stovetop, strain well, and pour the liquid into your bath. This method draws more from the botanicals and keeps loose herbs out of the tub for easier cleanup. For a layered ritual, pair with a mineral salt bath soak.

Packaging Details

Comes in a resealable pouch with one reusable muslin steeping bag to keep your botanicals fresh between uses.
