Whether or not you're feeling under the weather;
aches and pains, mental and/or physical,
if you have a bath/shower apparatus,
I beseech thee to try this:

Take a warm shower for a few minutes
and then turn it over to a warm bath
throwing in some bath salts and/or oils
and soak in that for five times as long.

Then, once you've soaked and relaxed
drain the bath, but simply lay in the water
and feel as the level lowers slowly around you
and pulls away all that negativity.

But, then, turn it back over to a cool shower,
rinsing off the salts and oils and residual bath debris,
and slowly increase the temperature,
for it shall impart an appreciation for what you have.

Then, allow yourself to air-dry
and do some light stretching.
I think you may find, as I sure have,
that this is a great way to reset the body and mind.
Even burn some incense and/or candles
and put on some music,
or just let the music of the sounds and feelings
play for thee a symphony.
