Today (Jan. 8) is National Bubble Bath Day. Consider it life's subliminal message to encourage you to have an evening of rejuvenating self-care.
According to the Cleveland Clinic, a good ol' bubble bath can improve your mental, emotional and physical health. It also lowers your body temperature, which helps you fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer.
So, what are you waiting for? Head to the stores and pick up the soap of your choice. And if you want a few suggestions, keep reading. We found seven that will give you sweet smells and dreams.
