Remember those commercials? They reminded us that a nice warm bath is a good way to relieve stress at the end of the day. There’s no need to use anything but baking soda in your bath, though.

Take this tip from Marilu’s 30-Day Total Health Makeover®

Take a slenderizing (and relaxing) bath with baking soda. Fill your tub half full with warm water, add 1 cup of baking soda, fill the tub the rest of the way. Soak for 20 minutes. Do this 10 consecutive days. It enhances weight loss, reduces toxins, and makes your skin feel baby smooth.

Plus – you get a 20-minute “time out” every day. Listen to your favorite music, or read a book or magazine. Relax your mind and spirit while you’re doing something good for your body.
