99% of us bathe on a daily basis yet astonishingly

Firstly we discuss the need of a bath. We don't need second reminding about the contaminated surroundings in which we live - It is filled with dust, pollution and is running amok with all kinds of dangerous pathogens and bacteria. We are at all times exposed to such kinds of germs and while the body does have its own natural protective shield to ward off infections, it too has its limitations. It is here that the necessity of a bath comes into picture. A good bath helps to open the skin pores, eliminates foul smell and makes the person feel fresh and energetic. So these are some of the crucial things that you need to bear in mind while taking a bath. Firstly decide on the kind of water you would like to bathe in. Hot water helps increases blood flow across the body and is recommended especially for older people. Take off your clothes and stack them away to one side in case you don't want them getting wet. Then start your bathing process by using a soap which isn't abrasive on the skin. I personally recommend usage of mild soaps such as Dove and Pears which is suitable for sensitive skin. Pour a bucket of water over your head and then start to lather yourself. Clean especially your armpits and private parts because these don't get as much exposure to air as other body parts. Scrub your back well because often due to the difficulty of reaching it, we don't clean it as much as we ideally should. The back of the neck is also a place which we tend to not scrub cleanly and so is the case with the toes underneath. Take care to scrub these well. After having made sure that you have scrubbed every body part clean, finish your bath by pouring water over the entire body making sure that lather isn't sticking up on any part of the skin. Use a dry towel to rub the body and make sure to clean your private parts well because this is one thing which many people fail to do which can then lead to infections. Put on fresh new clothes following bath and spray yourself with a good cologne to make yourself feel good.
