In today's hectic life, filled with constant worries, a relaxing holiday that brings the effect of healing seems to be an unattainable luxury. However, our ancestors created an excellent remedy that eliminates fatigue for a long time. This is a Russian steam room that perfectly relieves tension. But a relaxing event with many beneficial properties would not have become so popular if suitable accessories had not been invented. In our article we will tell you how to quickly and correctly prepare, steam and brew a bath broom.
Buying a new broom
If your old bundle of rods is no longer suitable for use, and you are thinking about updating your equipment, you should approach this issue responsibly.
You should only buy a new broom when the moon is in its waxing phase. Under no circumstances should you buy it in August, otherwise it will only bring trouble and trouble - not only to the house, but also to its inhabitants.
Who is prohibited from going to the bathhouse?
Unfortunately, not everyone benefits from visiting a bathhouse; for people who suffer from the following diseases, there are contraindications:
- Tumor diseases;
- Heart failure;
- Epilepsy;
- Exacerbations of the condition in such respiratory diseases as: pneumonia, pneumonia, bronchitis.
Also, children under four years old should not be allowed into a hot bath; there are also restrictions for people of retirement age. Doctors do not recommend pregnant and breastfeeding women to visit the steam room.
How to get rid of an old broom?
No need to throw it out the window. It would seem like obvious advice, since it’s somehow inhumane and uncivilized, but some people do it, especially in private homes (their own territory, no big deal).

However, if you believe the signs, a broom thrown out in this way will attract the attention of birds. Predators will swoop in and start stealing chickens from the yard.
The old item should be thrown away as far as possible from your home. And then envious people will not try to use it to spoil you.
Under no circumstances should you give it to someone else, and you shouldn’t even give it to your neighbors or friends. First of all, what is the use of an old broom? And secondly, this is a bad omen - it is believed that this can attract death to the home.
What plants are brooms made from?
An outdoor broom is often called a broom. It is usually made from thin branches and twigs. There are practically no secrets here. Young one-year-old shoots are cut about a meter long. These are the plants that are good for a broom:
This is what a regular and synthetic broom looks like
These are common ones. But they are also made from other bushes or tree branches. Even annuals are used: wormwood, kaoliang (a plant very similar to millet or sorghum), kochia.
A certain number of branches are collected in a bundle, aligning them along the cut. The upper part is pulled together in two to four places. This tie forms the handle. But, firstly, the handle is too thick, and secondly, to clean it on the street, you will have to stand for a long time “in an inclined position.” Therefore, the broom is attached to a wooden or plastic handle. The diameter of the handle is not too large to be comfortable to grasp with your hand. The load is small, so 3-4 cm is enough. The holder is often switched from an old broom to a new one.
How to make an outdoor broom from plastic bottles
They also make a broom out of plastic bottles. The process is quite simple and everyone has bottles. They are cut into strips, inserted one into the other, and secured. Making it is no more difficult, and probably even easier, than using traditional materials. So, here's the procedure:
- Cut off the bottom of the first bottle.
- Cut the “body” of the bottle into thin strips. Do not cut 4-6 cm to the neck.

- For everyone else, we cut off both the neck and the bottom. We cut off the neck 2-3 cm below the place where the thickening begins.
- We cut it into thin strips and put it on the first piece - the one with the neck.
- In total, you can insert 5-8 pieces one into the other.
- We cut off the neck of another bottle like the others. Cut off 2/3 from the bottom. We put the remaining 1/3 with the neck cut off onto the broom blank. This will be a “case” that gives the plastic broom its usual shape for a broom.
- Somewhere in the area where the thread for the lid is cut, we pierce a hole with an awl. This is for attaching to a broom handle.
- The edge of the holder must be sharpened so that it fits into the neck of the bottle at least 5 cm.
- We insert the holder and screw the screw through the hole.
- Now we squeeze it at the bottom of the “case”, forming the flat part of the broom.
- We take a coarse thread or wire, scissors or an awl. We pierce the “cover” in at least two places, but more often. We thread the wire through the holes, tighten it, and twist it.

Firmware for a broom made from plastic bottles
The broom made from plastic bottles is ready. You can make it two-level. Or three-level. Thicker and more powerful. We just make a few “packages”. Exactly as described above. We put them on one holder, one under the other.
Do you think a broom is just a part of the cleaning equipment? Not at all! This is a thing with which many signs are associated. And now we will pay a little attention to the most popular of them - if you want money and luck in your home, you should take them into account.
What should you expect?
If a person nevertheless throws out an old broom near the house, then illness may well overtake him. According to the sign, soon after this he will face depression, insomnia, and may even break a limb (a leg, most likely).
You can't burn an old broom. Otherwise, discord will arise in the family. In addition to quarrels, insects will also appear in the house.

If suddenly, while going to throw out a broom, you saw a fisherman along the way, don’t be surprised if he suddenly turns around and walks away from you. Because for people with gear, a stranger with a broom in his hands is a very bad omen, foreshadowing a terrible catch or lack of bite.
Things to take with you to the bathhouse
It is necessary to prepare a medium-sized bag, since there will be quite a lot of things. Be sure to take:
- Large towel, bathrobe;
- The sheet is clean;
- Clean change of linen;
- A special hat for the head, felt or wool;
- Regular towel;
- Rubber shoes or flip-flops;
- Shampoo, shower gel;
- For rubbing the body, a hard mitten;
- Broom.
You can also take with you a mask-scrub for the body and face, an infusion of herbs for the heater. Drink, brewed herbs in a thermos, still mineral water or tea.
What will the new broom bring?
But the answer to this question depends on what you do with it after the purchase. There is an old but still popular tradition: after buying a new broom, they take it into the house and, without touching the threshold, lightly touch it to the child so that he obeys the elders.
If there is a baby in the house, you can “broom” him so that he sleeps soundly and does not have nightmares.
Did your new broom fall out of your hands right before cleaning? This is a great sign! Immediately after this you need to make a wish. According to legend, it will come true! But the sign only works if the broom falls out by accident. You should not drop it on purpose.

But if you want to attract wealth into your home, you can use a brand new broom to sweep just a little bit of trash over the threshold from the street.
So that there is well-being
When someone sweeps in the house, everyone present at that moment leaves the room so as not to touch the broom; it is believed that this is not a sign of bad luck.
Revenge is needed only on women's days and not to the door, but to the middle of the room. It is advisable for the oldest woman to do this.
A man who has chosen a profession associated with a broom should not take revenge on himself, otherwise he will attract all adversity to himself.
In a new house, when sweeping for the first time, you must definitely sweep up trash from the street.
After the “unclean” person, you need to sweep the front door with a broom, then turn the broom three times clockwise. Then no evil eye will be able to harm the owners.
Signs about guests
Is there a twig left on the floor from the broom? Then it’s time to prepare treats, as guests are possible soon. The sudden appearance of friends in the house can also be indicated by a child who suddenly, just like that, decided to grab a broom.
Do you often get a visit from someone you're not very happy to see? Then you should use a new broom to sweep the floor when he leaves. Either the unpleasant guest will stop visiting you altogether, or will at least begin to come less often.
But after the departure of your beloved and desired comrades, you should refrain from cleaning. This is not very good - you can block their path.
And, of course, under no circumstances should guests be allowed to sweep the floor. Even if they insist because they accidentally littered it. This will turn out to be a loss of luck for the polite guest.
Russian bath - general rules
As a rule, a Russian bath has two rooms, a washing room or dressing room with a low temperature and a steam room with a higher temperature. In the steam room there is usually a very ordinary stove on which stones are heated. As soon as the stones are hot enough, it is customary to pour an infusion of specially prepared herbs onto them. Massage with a broom is a feature of the Russian bathhouse. Bath brooms are most often prepared from young branches of various types of trees. They all have their own action and meaning.
