Epsom Salt Baths for Anxiety.

Heavy?

Achy?

On edge?

Too busy to catch your breath?

For me, the weight of the world has been a bit heavier and I am grateful for my epsom salt baths for a simple act of self-love.

Why?

The aroma of the salts instantly puts me at ease

Soaking relaxes mind & body

My skin feels super smooth

It helps release toxins, tension and anxiety

It helps alleviate muscle aches & pains

Reduces inflammation

Improves sleep

I know I know, a bath takes a bit longer than a shower but aren't you worth it? I didn’t think the salts would be THAT much different than a regular bubble bath until I tried it. The calming effects are incredible!

Carve our 25 -35 minutes for yourself

Light a candle & play some soothing tunes (no podcasts, shows or audio books...this is YOUR time to focus on YOU)

Add gentle bubble bath to the mix

How to incorporate the salts?

As the tub is filling up (this helps the salt to dissolve) add some of your soap and about a half cup of #epsomsalt (this is minimal…you can use 1 – 2 cups)

Before stepping foot in the water, breathe in the calming scents.

INHALE: I AM LOVED

EXHALE: I AM WORTHY

Then soak for about 20 minutes, breathing slowly (repeating the mantras)

If you feel called use the salts for a gentle massage

You can also mix the Epsom salt with your soap if you’re in the shower but soaking is encouraged and definitely adds to your meditation and sense of self (the more time you spend alone the more you connected you will feel).
