was inspired by @thehoodwitch‘s new moon in Sagittarius post to create a bath soak to soothe chronic aches, stiff muscles, and stimulate circulation. claim time and space for yourselves tonight, my loves! 🌚💞
healing salts cleansing soak ♐ // good for one hot bath – detoxing, boost magnesium levels, soothe irritated skin
*1c epsom salts *1/4c baking soda *1/4c sea salt *1/3c apple cider vinegar
*essential oil(s) of choice. i used my clary sage and my homemade rosemary oils, recommended to encourage freedom + growth
-bring a kettle of water to boil
-mix all dry ingredients together in a large, non-metallic bowl
-stirring clockwise, add apple cider vinegar and conjure your intentions for this new moon as you feel the cooling sensations of the mixture bubble beneath you
-add boiling water until salts are dissolved, then add mixture to hot bath. soak for at least 30 minutes
-after bath, take some time to rub your favorite lotion/oil over your skin! think about where your body has carried you since the last new moon – thank them accordingly.
*WARNING // you may feel tired or lightheaded after your bath, this is normal for detoxing soaks. please make sure you are adequately hydrated and preferably bathe while someone is home with you!
