If you're anything like me, no luxury can compare to a hot, steamy bath. Any minor inconvenience, a stressful day, a slight hint of body aches, or a bout of bad weather can all be healed by the restorative plunge into a tub of scented suds. And I'm not talking a five-minute in-and-out either, if I'm lighting my candles, using my best bubble bath, and creating that full spa bathroom atmosphere — you best believe I'll be in that tub for 30 minutes minimum. I'm not getting out until my fingers shrivel up like prunes, and my previously boiling bath is practically room temperature.
The only slight issue with this little self-care routine of mine is that, for some reason, baths don't seem to be designed with these leisurely soaks in mind, and by the end of it, my back can often end up feeling worse than it did to begin with. Which is exactly why the idea of a bath sofa has quickly become my new obsession.
