What I Love About This DIY Bath Soak Recipe
Hi! Katie here, certified aromatherapist and creator of our Essential Oil Recipe Box which this recipe is included for this month.
I love this bath soak, which is very uplifting, calming, helps relieve pain, and supports hormonal balance. The salt dissolves as the tub fills, and the epsom salt used supports detox. You can even light a toxin-free candle to add even more to your relaxing bath time experience.
What’s in This DIY Bath Soak Recipe
Epsom Salt
Epsom Salt is a crystal form of magnesium sulfate making it look a lot like salt. This mineral is important in almost all of your body’s cellular reactions. Most people are magnesium deficient which can cause a whole host of problems like heart disease, stroke, arthritis, digestive problems, and fatigue. An Epsom salt bath is a great way to get away for a natural intake of magnesium. It is detoxifying, and supports circulation.
Fractionated Coconut Oil
Fractionated Coconut Oil will dilute the oils so that they’re safe to use on your skin. Plus, it has benefits of its own! Coconut oil is incredibly nourishing for the skin.
Good Vibes Essential Oil Blend
Good Vibes Essential Oil Blend is a calming blend that is great for detoxing and in-charge for your hormonal balance.
Ladies’ Choice Essential Oil Blend
