Long before modern soap, people around the world relied on unusual, creative, and sometimes surprising methods to stay clean. From clay dusting rituals in Mesopotamia, to fragrant oils in Egypt, to smoke cleansing on the Eurasian steppe, ancient cultures developed their own soothing traditions of washing, purifying, and caring for the body. These quiet rituals reveal a gentler, slower way of life, shaped by nature, simplicity, and timeless human ingenuity.
In this calming episode, we explore the soft rhythms of early hygiene practices: warm sand scrubs, herbal infusions, natural oils, mineral baths, and the peaceful ceremonies that helped people feel renewed long before soap existed. A relaxing journey through forgotten comfort rituals designed to help you unwind and drift into rest.
