Bhutanese Mugwort Foot Soaking Bags (x2)

Mugwort Foot Soaking Bags — A Himalayan Foot Ritual

This is a simple, time-honoured wellness ritual: a warm foot bath infused with Himalayan mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris). Two breathable linen bags are filled with dried mugwort leaves grown in the cool Bhutanese highlands, then steeped in hot water to release their warming, slightly bitter, herbal aroma. The ritual is rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine, where soaking the feet in mugwort-infused water is believed to support circulation, warm the body from the inside out, and prepare the system for restful sleep.

Each bag is generously filled and stitched by hand. Drop one into a foot bath, soak for twenty to thirty minutes, and let the steam and herbal infusion do their work. The dried leaves can be reused two or three times before the aroma fades, and the spent leaves make a wonderful addition to the compost heap.

How to enjoy this foot ritual in Bangkok:

• The Traditional Way: Place one bag in a foot bath or large basin. Pour 3–5 litres of just-boiled water over the bag, let it steep for 3–5 minutes, then adjust the temperature with cold water until comfortably hot. Soak your feet for 20–30 minutes, adding warm water as needed to maintain the temperature.
• The Evening Ritual: Use both bags for a deeper infusion, especially on cool evenings or after a long day on your feet. Pair with a cup of warm Suja or chamomile tea.
• The Quick Way: Steep one bag in a large bowl of hot water for 5 minutes, then pour into a regular foot bath or even a wide cooking pot. Soak for 15 minutes.
