Relaxing Bath Salt & Essential Oils Recipe
Use to unwind after a busy day or busy week…..
- 2 oz (56 g) pink Himalayan salt
- 1 tablespoon (15 ml) jojoba
- 2 drops Neroli/Petitgrain
- 2 drops Cedarwood
- 1 drop Tea Tree (Melaleuca)
Make this blend in a 2 oz (60 ml) jar.
Put the salt and jojoba into the jar, add the essential oils, and stir with a glass stirring rod or the handle of a stainless steel spoon.
Use the whole jar to help yourself relax in the tub after a long day. The essential oils and warm water help to work out any tension held in your muscles.
Be sure to towel off the tub when you’re done with your bath. This blend leaves the tub slippery, so be careful.
Aromatherapy Playdough Recipe
This is a fun recipe to make for the kids and is a great activity for children, a fun to learn about aromatherapy and essential oils. Use a variety of oils and colors to help kids learn new scents. Some fun essential oils could include:
Wild Orange, Peppermint, Lemon, Rosemary, or Lavender.
Personally, I love to use On Guard during the colder months of the year. https://www.doterra.com/US/en/blog/spotlight-doterra-on-guard-protective-blend
