Detox Bath
Lately I've been having a lot of anxiety and a detox has been a really quick easy way to recenter or refocus me. I also find this really rejuvenating and refreshing after traveling or long weekends. The list below is how to create a detox bath, perfect for relaxing after a plane ride or right before bed.
Epson Salt $15
There are a ton of really good epsom salt brands. Because I like to add my own flavors of essential oil I go for the plain jane no flavor epsom salt. Other brands tend to add the oils or fragrance in for you.
Essential Oils: Peppermint, Rosemary, and eucalyptus oil (All can be found at Whole Foods, or Nowfoods.com)
These 3 are perfect to blend, they fuse together really nicely. It is subtle yet significant.
Incense Cones $30
Infused with charcoal, peppermint and rose it will complement the salt and essential oils perfectly. It burns so it gives presence of a candle, its like modern day incense.
Fresh SugarBath Lemon Soap $13
Lemon is the perfect addition to the soak.
Music
To relax I like either Brazilian Jazz or rap. I know those are both extreme but they are truly my favorite kids of music. I like to just spotify a playlist, Bob Baldwin has really good tracks if you're looking to tap into Brazilian jazz and don't know where to start. This is obviously different for everybody so pick a genre that allows you to relax rather than energize. I love listening to podcasts but I always want to be able to write when I do so a detox bath is not the time. I would go for the most subtle, just so you can completely clear your mind and almost go in a state of meditation.
