Persuasive Essay: It's Time To Get Clean

Improved Essays
It's typical to find yourself stressed, tired, and often feeling drained. It's a fact of life that everyone goes through those feelings. If you're feeling that way yourself, you're probably also wondering what you can do to feel more relaxed. There are a lot of tips and tricks out there, but there are none quite as simple as taking a bath.

Sure, that is probably already part of your daily routine, but it can be so much more beneficial than just getting clean. Especially if you take the time, and really indulge. A study conducted at the University of Wolverhampton showed that people who take daily baths are generally less stressed. They feel reduced anxieties, and they have an easier time falling asleep.

Unfortunately, with the modern age, there is never enough time to have a nice bath. Instead, we all favor showers because they are quicker, and allow us to get back to doing what needs to be done. But there's nothing more important than our own mental and physical health. Without it, we can't do much of anything, can we? If you can't find the time to take a daily bath, at least set aside one day of the week. Make it a Saturday or a Sunday evening when all the kids have gone to bed, and the day is winding down. Gather up your supplies, fill the bath tub up with hot water, climb in, and let all your cares simply float away.

You may notice after a few weeks that you can move more fluidly. The relaxation that takes place in the bath, does come out of the water with you. As long as you regularly treat your body to that sensation, you'll see improved results. This can be very helpful if you're working somewhere that requires you to stand on your feet for long periods of time. Or, sit in an uncomfortable office chair for 8 hours a day. We've all experienced the pain of sore muscles after a long day of work. This is why studies are saying a daily bath is the most beneficial. It's a routine relaxation. Who wouldn't love

    Prior to beginning the masters of occupational therapy program it was as if I was an ancient wanderer in the dark ages, eager to learn new ideas and discover new places not sure what the world would throw at me next. Over the next eight years I found myself at a series of personal crossroads one encounters during life’s journey. Not the crossroad where one sells their soul to the devil for some magical power.

Crossroads that impacted my future, shaped who I am and my character, influenced life changes, which led to a transition that will influence me and my family for generations to come. I come from…
