best done with a debilitating migraine.
if you're the type to fear a goblin with bloody eyes and no legs yanking the shower curtain open while you get the shampoo out of your eyes--just turn on your phone's flashlight!
if using this method, obscure it partially for just a sliver of light to see the products you're using or bounce it off the floor. i also like to pair it with some gentle (if not melodramatic) music. my choice is often Water Forest by Ichiko Hashimoto.
observe the way the water droplets refract the light. feel the sensation of them rolling off your shoulders and the smell of your water pipes. pretend you are a beautiful tragic figure and fetishize your suffering.
it's fabulous!

step 1: turn off all artificial lighting
step 2: light 2-4+ tealights/votive candles (white preferred)
step 3: water must be slightly hotter than avg.
step 4: post-shower routine must be slow and deliberate
bonus points for a shower beer or sparkling water

steel cut oats soaked in flax milk, a little maple syrup, and cold brew overnight. then top with plant based yogurt (coconut is good) a dusting of cocoa powder, and a couple chocolate chips (not too decadent now!)

went to the camera museum in south plainfield NJ which was in a decrepit mansion run by two lovely senile men. ended up getting a free hi8 camera and books out of it so dont forget these strange pockets of your municipality

prepare for a whimsical journey amigo. Los Hijos Del Sol and Los Zheros are a great jumping off point. Cuarto Oscuro is great. Check out the Roots of Chicha compilation album!
