Me Time with a Warm Shower

Gardewa Santana | modified: May 17, 2023

The busy daily activities can sometimes leave us feeling tired and stressed. It's not uncommon for people to need some time alone to rest from the hustle and bustle of the outside world. This is often known as Me Time. Everyone has their own way of pampering themselves, and many will set aside time and resources to indulge in self-care for the sake of happiness and tranquility, avoiding stress.

One simple way to do this is by taking a warm shower. Showering provides us with an opportunity to be alone for a moment, away from the outside world. During a shower, we are only faced with ourselves. Showering is not just a basic necessity; it can also bring positive energy to the body when we feel tired after a day's activities.

Taking a short Me Time by soaking in hot water can improve mood and relieve stress. Fatigue fades away more easily when we soak in warm water. It doesn't require a long time, just 10-15 minutes after activities and 2 hours before bedtime.

Adding a gentle body wash to maintain skin moisture and scented candles with preferred aromas can be additional alternatives to accompany our Me Time and enhance the soothing relaxation sensation.

By taking a little Me Time, setting aside a moment for ourselves with a warm shower, it naturally allows us to have a better night's sleep. Soaking in warm water can raise the body's temperature, helping us fall asleep more easily.

Me Time with a warm bath can also relieve muscle tension because bathing or soaking in warm water creates a sense of relaxation in the body. Not only do the muscles feel relaxed, but the body also feels calmer, and the mind becomes clearer. According to Dr. Alvin Nursalim (as cited by KlikDokter), "Taking a warm bath can reduce muscle tension after a day of activity. Warm water can also help relax the muscles and make you feel more relaxed." Dr. Alvin also adds, "Soaking in warm water infused with aromatherapy can help reduce stress levels."
