Salt of the Earth… Bath Salts

 

When most people think of baths (as opposed to showers), they think of one of two things: a time of relaxation, or a luxury they don’t have time for. But I am suggesting that a bath is actually MORE than relaxation or a ‘luxury’. Let me explain…

Lets start with babies and children. Bath time IS the best way to calm children (mind and body) and prepare them for sleep. And this is also true for adults, however the demands we as adults place on our bodies from work stress, lack of proper diet, and environmental stress can due a ton of damage on the inside and outside. They create congestion in our organs, blood, skin, nerves and muscles thus creating a stew of toxins and wreak havoc in our sleep patterns, which in turn creates more stress and damage to our bodies. What a vicious  circle!

Salt baths are the premier way to remedy most of these factors; and while it may seem like an ‘un-manly’ thing to do, every men would benefit from a salt soak as much as women! Even if you just do a salt foot soak, the benefits are tremendous. It is recommended that 1-2 30 minute salt baths a week will benefit the body on so many levels, and prepare it for the daily grind we so often find ourselves in. This is not a luxury, its a NECESSITY!
