Sweet Dreams Foot Bath

Author: Kami McBride

Ingredients

  • 4 quarts water
  • 1/2 cup fresh lavender or 1/2 cup dried lavender
  • 1/2 cup fresh rose petals or 1/2 cup dried rose petals
  • 1 tsp powdered nutmeg

Instructions

  • Put the water and herbs into a large pot.
  • Bring to a boil, turn off the heat, and let herbs infuse for one hour.
  • Leave herbs in the water for the foot bath or strain them out. I like to leave the herbs in, as they continue to infuse the water, and I enjoy their color and texture.
  • Reheat tea.
  • Pour strained or unstrained tea into a foot basin.
  • Soak your feet for 10 minutes or for as long as you like. It isn't much of a mess to clean up; when you are finished, just pour the water and herbs into a garden bed outside.
