About this routine

The Gwyneth Paltrow evening detox bath is a nightly practice the Goop founder uses to shed daily stress. She draws a hot bath every evening around six thirty, adding Epsom salts and essential oils to help her muscles relax.

During the soak, she sips warm tea or lemon water to stay hydrated while letting the heat induce mild sweating. She spends 20 minutes soaking before rinsing off, applying body oil to damp skin, and dressing in comfortable loungewear.

This 38 minute sequence offers a simple template for evening relaxation. It turns a standard bath into an intentional ritual of physical warmth and mental calm.

Why this routine works
