About this listen

Long before bottled shampoo and bar soap, humanity still had to get clean. In this calm, sleep-ready journey through time, we explore the surprising, strange, and sacred ways people bathed before modern hygiene. From Roman olive oil scrapes to Egyptian natron rituals, discover the ancient world of bathing without soap.

Close your eyes and drift into the past — where water, ash, sand, and oil were all part of the ritual of being clean.
