INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Your headset can become dusty over time, especially if you haven’t used it for a while. Compressed air will remove dust quickly without leaving streaks or residue. Baby wipes, makeup removal cloths, or hand wipes are good choices for cleaning your headset. Make sure the product you use is meant for skin, since it will be in contact with your face. Avoid using anything that contains alcohol. After you wipe down the headset, it may be slightly moist. Wait until it’s dry to the touch before you wear it again. It should only take a few moments. Many headsets have removable face cushions. If you buy a replacement, you can remove your old one and clean it thoroughly with water and dish detergent, then let it dry. When your new face cushion becomes dirty, you can swap them again.

SUMMARY: Remove any dust with compressed air. Wipe the surfaces down with skin-safe anti-bacterial wipes. Let the headset air-dry thoroughly before using it again. Buy a replacement face cushion if yours is extremely dirty or worn.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: You don’t want any dirt or other impurities in your ritual bath water, so always shower first. Use soap or body wash to wash your skin and prepare for your ritual bath. During this time, focus your thoughts on your intentions to cleanse your spirit. For instance, you could repeat a mantra in your head as you bathe. You might think, “I release negativity so my spirit will be lifted,” or “I’m washing away my worries and cares.” Fill your tub with slightly hot water that doesn’t burn your skin. Before you get in, test your water with the back of your hand to make sure it’s not too hot.  If it feels too hot, wait a few minutes for the water to cool down. If your water is too cold for comfort, drain a little water out of the tub, then add more hot water to warm it up. Salt is commonly used as a purifier, so it’s perfect for a ritual bath. You can use plain salt or a bath salt blend that’s made for a spiritual bath. Pour your salt into the water, then use your hand to slosh the water to help it dissolve. Here are some options for salt:  Himalayan sea salt Unrefined sea salt Epsom salt If you’re using plain salt, adding herbs or essential oil is a great idea. The aroma can help you cleanse your spirit. Additionally, some herbs have cleansing properties. You can use 1 oil or herb or you can create a blend. To use an oil, add 3-5 drops of essential oil directly to your bath. If you’re using herbs, sprinkle them over your bath water.  Lavender essential oil or dried herbs Rosemary essential oil or dried herbs (not appropriate for pregnant women) Vetiver essential oil Cedar wood essential oil Rose essential oil Rose petals Dried sage Get into your bath water and relax. Submerge as much of your body under the water as possible. Then, close your eyes and focus on your intention to cleanse your spirit. Focus on your breath to gently bring your awareness to your body and what you’re doing. This will help you reflect on your intention. Take slow, deep breaths as you reflect on your intention. Think about the reasons why you feel like your spirit needs to be cleansed. Then, imagine your worries, negativity, or spiritual blocks dissolving into the water. If you like, pray or ask for spiritual support to help you cleanse yourself. When you feel ready, get out of your spiritual bath to end the ritual. Instead of drying off with a towel, let the water naturally air dry so that it evaporates off of your skin. This helps complete the cleansing process. It’s okay to put on your robe, but don’t towel off first. Don’t take cleansing baths too often. If you feel like you need a regular cleansing, take a spiritual bath once a month or as often as once a week. Otherwise, you might deplete your spirit from over-cleansing. Try different cleansing schedules for yourself to find what works for you.

SUMMARY: Shower before you take your ritual bath so you’re clean. Run a bath that’s comfortably hot. Add 1 cup (273 g) of bath salts to the water to help purify your energy. Include cleansing herbs or essential oils for added benefits. Soak in the water for 20-30 minutes. Meditate on the energies you want to cleanse. Let your body air dry after your spiritual bath. Take your cleansing bath as often as once a week.
