English translation:feels good!
Explanation:
We don't have anything like this in English and all of the suggestions so far would sound totally un-English.

It is just not part of the culture.

We would only use "bless you" with a sneeze.

Something we might say to someone for example who says "I just got out of the shower" is "Feels great, huh?" or "Feel like a new person, huh?"

enjoy


Explanation:
'Hope you enjoy your bath!' 'enjoyed it!' in this context .' God bless you' or 'bless' are said in response to (حدسه ) and seems less appropriate in this case!
