Title: Northwest Pine Bath
Categories: Bath *
Yield: 1 Treatment

1	c	Pine needles
2	c	Water

The smell of pine produces a feeling of serenity and peacefulness. This is a very gentle and relaxing bath. If you do not live in the northwest, where pine trees are abundant, you can produce a year's supply of baths by boiling the needles from your Christmas tree.

Place the pine needles in a large pot on the stove and cover with the water. Bring the water to a boil and remove the pan from the heat. Allow the pine water to cool completely. Strain off the pine needles and discard. Pour the clear, pine-scented water into a clean bottle. Add 2 c of this pine water into your bath water.
