Herbal Foot Bath
For tired feet and hard skin, a foot soak can do wonders. Warm water stimulates your feet and your whole body, and softens your skin. The aromas of herbs and baths salts provide relaxation through the sense of smell.
Boil 1 quart of water. Make a small pouch of any of the following herbs: lavender, sage, rosemary. Place the pouch in a large wash bowl or bucket and pour the boiling water over it.
Let it sit for 20 minutes.
Add cold water, if necessary, to reach a comfortable temperature between 100 and 110 degrees Fahrenheit.
Soak your feet in the water for about 20 minutes. Gently rub the herbs on your feet but do not scrub.
Dry feet thoroughly with a clean towel.
Bathing salts also soften your skin.
