bathe, be favored with, bask in
浴 centers on immersing oneself in something, whether water for bathing or a favorable situation to bask in. The extended sense of being favored with something comes from the idea of being bathed in benefits.
浴 combines 氵 (water) with 谷 (valley), suggesting water flowing into a valley-like basin for bathing. The phonetic role of 谷 is uncertain, but the semantic link to water and immersion is clear.
Water 氵 pours into a valley 谷, creating a natural bath. Imagine soaking in that valley pool, letting the water wash over you as you bask in the warmth.
For ヨク, picture a yoke of oxen pulling a large wooden bathtub into the valley: yoke -> ヨク, and the water splashes as they haul your bath.
