I was granted a copy of this book by Netgalley, in exchange for my honest opinion.
Has a moon enthusiast I new I had to read this, and oh boy I didn’t regret one bit.
It’s a beautiful book followed by interesting bath receipts, for us to slow down and take care of ourselves, it’s a self care bible and I’m 100% down for it. I definitely recommend this book has a guide for anyone and everyone who loves baths and would like to make it into a habit of practice.
The fact that the book starts with “ for you Moon Child” says it all, the way I identified with this and how I want it to be my bible from now on”. There’s a bath for all the seasons to help you through negativity to attract abundance into your life. The images are so lovely I definitely need to get it physically.
I’m truly grateful for the opportunity to review this book.

Very well organized. products needed are not too difficult to find/purchase. hope it gets translated for my German speaking customers. Loved the artwork! Really great for anyone who seeks for relaxing rituals in balance with the moon’s cycle. Enjoyed it very much.

Moon Bath is an absolutely beautiful resource of bathing rituals based on the seasons and the moon cycles.
With self care exercises and fragrant bath recipes, this book is a must for the mindful bath lover.

Although this is a very spiritual book, I don't think that should put you off, even if you are just looking for a few floral bath ideas. This whole book is so thoughtfully and lovingly put together, anyone can appreciate the details and ideas.

Highly recommended.

Not only is this book aesthetically pleasing, the simple rituals provide a delightful way to note the passing lunar phases with a dash of self care and reflection. Not only do I recommend it, but I have already purchased a copy for myself and some of the authoress' bath tea infusions.

This is such a wonderful book! I loved reading about different ways to improve a normal activity! All of these sound so lovely and relaxing. I can't wait to try for myself! This would make a great gift!

This was a comprehensive guide with step-by-step instructions for brewing special baths and connecting with spiritual feelings. While this isn't something I necessarily see myself doing, I was interested in what this book had to offer and I think those that really connect with this will enjoy it. It often feels like a very beautifully crafted recipe blog (but for baths) and there's clearly a lot of research put into this book!

As my husband would say, I am obsessed with baths. I love everything about them. The ritual of buying pretty smelly bath salts and bath bombs to warming my towel in the towel warmer for when I get out. I grab my Kindle and a cold drink and plan at least 30 minutes every night to just relax. I wish everything I owned smelled like a Lush bath bomb which is one of my favorite bath bombs to date. I didn't even realize before I read this book that Moon Bath has bath products as well so I was excited to buy one to try as I read the book. Moon Bath is all about bath rituals and the art of relaxing and tuning everything out. I always knew that soaking in the tub was good for my mental/emotional state but was pleased to learn it's even good for my physical health! I am a true hippy at heart so I loved all the boho photos, the recipes, and the connections with universe.
Did you know our skin is the largest organ on our body? Bathing is good for our cells and using all natural products help transform our bodies with natural healing. I loved the idea of having a ritual and realize I pretty much already do that, but now I look at it more as an art than an action. Whenever I travel I always try to seek out a hotel that offers free standing claw tubs, tubs so big I can swim in them, and my favorite...bathtubs with a view! My top 3 favorite bath experience's were;
An outdoor bathtub in the dessert in Palm Springs
Water that actually pored from the ceiling into a massive tub below in Hawaii
A tub filled with custom bath salts and a view of the Hudson River in New York
I enjoyed this book even more than I thought I would and learned quit a bit. I am going to start adding tea and fresh flowers to my routine and make of the many recipes that were included in this amazing little book. Happy bathing!

Since I have started being conscious about my health, I'm very keen on reading books about self care practices and this book just seemed to fulfill it in an interesting way. Moon Bath is essentially a bathing ritual coupled with organic oils and brews to enhance the experience. What makes it even more interesting is that the rituals are performed based on the season and moon conditions. I loved the detailed ways in which each bathing ritual was explained. As the authors mention in the beginning, this can essentially act similar to a cookbook, as it contains the things required, the actual procedure and the accompanying yoga and reflective practices, all in one. I loved the way Ayurveda and Yoga were collaborated to develop the relaxing experiences guide book. A perfect book for the ones looking for self care practices which could be done easily at home.

Do I believe in this kind of thing? I have no idea. But I love reading about it. This book had a lot of interesting information but at the same time, was kind of dry.

Learn about the natural rhythms of the earth, the seasons, the magical moon and how it relates to us and our growth from the old ways and new understandings of them.

Thank you so much to net galley for spending me a copy of this book I was excited to get it because baths are one of my favorite things, sadly this was a let down for me

From bath recipes all the way to affirmations, this book covers soul much and uses our cyclical nature to amplify powers. This book covers bath rituals for full moon, new moon, waning and waxing moons for each season, along with different prompts that slip you into total relaxation. I love how the authors incorporate Ayurveda, which is something that is becoming more known in our Western world and rightfully so. I would recommend this book to anyone who loves a nice, calming bath ritual and those who love to follow the natural rhythms of the earth.

This book was perfect for my inner witch, I wrote down so many things I want to try and implement in my bathing rituals. I love how it focuses on self care and I cannot wait to try some of these rituals :)

As someone who's favourite "me time" habit is taking sea salt baths, this book was everything I needed to expand my practice. Really reccomend for those interested in spiritual self care.

This is one of those books where format is everything. I read this on my Kindle and was able to see what all it had to offer so I could write a review, but this is the type of book that should be experienced in the physical format. The photography is beautiful and even if you didn't follow the recipes to create the customized baths, the book itself has a calming effect. I would love to display this in my bathroom or gift it to someone who is especially interested in self-care and natural healing.

This book was written for me. I love baths, but after this book, my baths will be 10 times more amazing.

Other than the bathing rituals, this book also teaches you a lot about the moon and her phases, relaxation methods, yoga positions, meditation methods, journal prompts. I absolutely loved it!

The photography is amazing too.
