Bathing is a very intimate process. As a child, we were washed by our parents, but then for most people, it becomes a personal procedure. Most of the time, we do it alone and by ourselves. To share this process, to immerse into the state of a child being lathered up and washed, is an invaluable experience that creates intimacy and strengthens connection.
Make a surprise: prepare a hot foam bath by the time the partner returns home, dim the lights and light the candles, turn on some relaxing music
You can sit in silence or discuss your day. Take a soft loofah/sponge, wet it, gently rub back and shoulders, rub hands, legs and breasts. You can massage the partner’s hands and feet lightly. When you get tired of bathing, turn on the shower and wash the foam from the body. Prepare a soft towel and use it to dry the partner.
