Creating Baths Salts
The basic ingredients are table salt or (Borax), baking soda, and Epsom salts or (sea salt).
Add the salts to a large bowl in these proportions:
3 parts Epsom salts or sea salt
2 parts Baking Soda
1 part Table Salt or Borax
Mix thoroughly. With this you can make up a large quantity of one type of bath salt. If two or three types are preferred, simply divide the and set aside those portions to be separately fragranced and colored.
It's wise to add the power of color to bath salts. Use plain food coloring for this purpose, letting it fall drop by drop on the the salt base. If two or more colors are required to mix an exotic hue(such as purple), mix these in a spoon ;first and then add to the salts to avoid creating a two toned product. REcommended colors for all bath salt mixtures areincluded in the recipes. For those that read "Color: White" simply leave them untinted. Add many drops for a darker colored salt; fewer for a lightly hued salt. Mix the color into the salts with a spoon until it is evenly distributed.
Now add the essential oils drop by drop, one ingredient at a time, until the scent seems right. Mix with a spoon until all salt particles are moistened. Be prepared to spend some time doing this, perhaps a half hour or so. As you mix, visualize the energies within the oils merging with each other and with the salt. Keep salt's magikal goal in mind while you stir.
Empower the mixture. Use or store until needed. As to the proportions:Though each recipe lists relative proportions (two parts almond oil;one part mint), rely on your nose to deterine the exact quantities(such as one tablespoon or 30 drops).
The more potent the finished product's scent, the less will have to be used for each bath. Bath salts should be strongly scented.
To use, add from 2 tablespoons to one half cup of the ritual bath salts to a full tub. Mix with your hands, feeling their energies merge with the water.
while sitting in the tub soak up the power.
Allow yourself to receive it, or alternately, to release specific negative energies from yourself into the water.
Directly after every ritual bath(and before , if necessary), clean your tub, either with a commercial cleanser or with a damp cloth covered with baking soda. Ritual baths taken in unclean bathtubs won't hve the desired effects.
The proportions in the recipes, though for essential oils, are by parts. One part may equal six drops. Generally speaking, there shouldn't be more than ten drops of essential oil per half cup of bath salts. Experiment to find what works best, and please use only genuine essential oils for Bath Salts Recipes.
