To approach ‘snanna’ in Ayurvedic perspective, practice the following:

Bathe in the morning after a regular exercise, yoga or massage. The second time is before dinner but never do away with bathing.

Never take a bath after eating or with a full stomach

Use tepid water for the hand and neck

Use scrubs containing neem, sandal, turmeric and tulsi extracts

Always wear a fresh set of clothes after bathing

You can enhance the benefits of regular bathing by giving yourself a daily massage
with warm oil earlier. They leave your skin soft and smooth. Use a plain scrub made of moong oil for exfoliation.

To stimulate the other senses during the bathing experience and increase the healing benefits of snaana, aromatherapy oils can be added to the bath water or infused in the bathroom. However, do not use synthetic or harsh scents.

When bathing children or infants, Ayurveda suggests an ‘avagaha’ that is tub-bath with water infused with antiseptic and perfumed herbs such as neem, tulsi and sandal.

Regular bathing will also reinforce the effects of massage on infants and make sure sound sleep.
