At Laki, we love a good bath – the steam, the silence, the solitude. It’s soothing and lets us take a break from life’s troubles. What you might not know is that the positive effects of a bath go far deeper than simply providing a relaxing experience. Taking regular baths provides real, long-term benefits to one’s physical and mental health. Here are the top reasons we love a good bath...

Usually, in moments of crisis, we rally and gather in support of each other, but this moment uniquely requires us to stay apart. We hope you’re finding ways to relax and stay present amidst the uncertainty. In the spirit of solitary self-care, we’ve compiled a varied list of meaningful ways to take care of yourself at home.

According to the CDC, 80% of germs are spread by our hands, but washing ours over and over again and constantly using sanitizer has left them dry and cracked. Go natural, and learn to make your very own lotion at home!

While you may be tempted to throw a bath bomb or something horrible like that in, which will inevitably permanently cover you and your tub in glitter, I've a far better suggestion. Pour in some Laki Naturals bath soaks. This blend of Hawaiian sea salts and magnesium crystal flakes come in a range of scents and have a long list of benefits. They decrease stress and anxiety, relieve achy muscles and joints, promote healthy sleep, improve skin hydration and decrease inflammation. And really, who doesn't need all of that? In conclusion, big fan.

Not only do these pink crystals look chic in my tub, but they are filled with magnesium, which reduces stress and helps promote sleep. Bonus: the floral aroma will make your bathroom smell heavenly while soothing and reviving your skin."

Here are a few ways to be kinder to yourself...
