I have been taking Himalayan salt baths for many years and is one of the best things that I do for myself on a regular basis. It is important to take care of yourself. It is a great way to relax and recharge your body and mind. It is also a great way to cleanse and detox on the spiritual level.
Himalayan Salt is usually pink in color.

I started by using a coarser grain (pictured below) because I just happened upon it while shopping one day. If you use a courser grain you will want to make sure that the salt has time to dissolve before entering the tub. Believe me when I say, “You don’t want coarser undissolved salt in your bath when you get in.” This is the reason I recommend adding it early. After using the contents of the bottle, I changed to fine grain salt which dissolves quickly. A Himalayan salt bath is a soaking bath only. You can shower prior to soaking if needed.
Try making it a standard practice in your self-care routine, taking at least one a week to cleanse and detox. I highly recommend it more often for active practitioners (healers, psychics, etc.). New and full moons are times for cleansing and detoxing. I make it a priority to soak on these nights. *Always use protection. You can create a peaceful environment that encompasses all the senses to enhance your experience by lighting candles, burning incense and playing soft music.
Directions:
(1) Start running your bath water and add your salt when the water covers the bottom of the tub. (essential oil and/or foam bath also but optional)
(2) While your bath water is running create your peaceful environment
(3) Soak for 20 – 30 minutes
(4) Do not rinse
(5) Pat dry or dry naturally
(6) It has been said to wait at least 30 minutes before going to bed after soaking. (Most of the time I am up a lot longer than the 30 minutes but there have been times when I was so relaxed that I was in bed asleep within 15 minutes.)
Himalayan salt or Dr. Teal’s Pink Himalayan Mineral Soak
(I usually use both.)
Additionally, you can add an essential oil and/or foaming bath to the water.
I also use a Himalayan salt scrub, applying it directly to the skin.
You will notice a difference the first time you try it. After trying it, you will want to continue doing it.
** I only share what I have tried but there are many products on the market to choose from. **
