The Japanese working man usually takes a nice long bath after work. Soaking in their bathtubs for a few minutes releases tension and helps them relax inside and out. The famous Japanese working man baths before going to bed because a well-washed body contributes to a pleasant atmosphere and helps them feel comfortable when they sleep.
The therapeutic effect of taking a bath after work is very effective. Feeling tired, sleepy and dirty is the sensation of a man after work, tired because of the long day of labor, sleepy because of the lack of energy, and dirty because of the travel on his way home.
After work, I usually feel much drained because of the day’s activities, though I may not feel it when I’m in the work place but once I got home the effect goes up to the surface. I usually start my day at around 5am because I still have some things to do. I also need to wake up early because my work place is far from home. That is why by 7, I must be on my way to the office already for me to arrive there before 8, and from 8am-5pm I’m in the office doing work.
After work, I need to travel for 1 hour in order for me to reach home. That is why by the time I got home, I feel so drained and very tired already. I think one of the things that add up to the stress is the traveling part. Anyway, In order for me to relieve stress, I eat a lot to regain energy and have a nice long bath before I hit the sack.
Once you started bathing, the feeling of water running from your head down to your body is really refreshing and the coldness of the water awakens you. After bath, I feel refreshed, relaxed and ready to hit the sack. When you get into bed you will feel comfortable and warm and sleep soundly and by the next day you will get up feeling like a new person.
The feeling of being revitalized is something. That is why before I go to sleep I always make sure that I will have a nice long bath not just to relax and release me from stress but also for a good night sleep.
Try it, you’ll see the difference.
