Bathing has been there for centuries. To immerse ourselves in a hot tub full of water at home or outside in the natural body of water is one of the main activities of every human being. You can submerge for many reasons: health, leisure, or simply personal hygiene.

One of my essential activities is having a warm bath in winter or swim in the lake or ocean in summer times to feel happy. While I used to live in Vancouver, BC, I thoroughly enjoyed the warm spring natural water in winter to submerge myself with friends to have a great weekend getaway.

I cannot wait to go on the land of ice and fire, Iceland, to enjoy natural warm waters and also hiking in the area this year. I am not a huge fan of cold waters despite living in Canada, but once in a while is great.

Physicians also suggest athletes relax in cold water that is a great remedy for sore muscle and stretched tissues. However, I love to find taking a warm bath is more sustainable.

Here are the top 10 proven benefits of baths to living a healthy and happy life.
