4 Ingredient Epsom Salt Mix

This simple epsom salt mix is perfect for an aching body, sore muscles, and just anyone who needs to relax. It makes a great homemade gift and can be tailored to whatever sent you prefer!

There is nothing better than a soak in the bath after a long or emotionally exhausting day. To help decompress and relax, I like to add a good helping of epsom salts to my bath and soak in it for at least 20 minutes.

You can keep the salts simple or add dried organic flowers like lavender, rose, or chamomile along with a few drops of corresponding essential oil.
