If life is giving you too much stress, a relaxing bath with the proper essential oils can give you a moment of peace and a much-needed new perspective. Try the following bath on a day when you're feeling stressed, and don't forget to light a candle and lock the door for complete peace and privacy. You will need:
1 cup of Epsom salts
Oil of Sandalwood
Oil of Patchouli
Oil of Ylang-Ylang
A bath pillow (optional)
Add the Epsom salts to your running bath, and mix with your hands until dissolved. Then add a few drops of each of the oils and mix well. Lay back and relax for at least 15 minutes (with a bath pillow under your head if you have one). Don't fall asleep! Just relax and meditate on feeling peaceful and calm. After 15 minutes, wash yourself with a soft, natural soap (such as a rose and glycerin soap) and a soft washrag. Gently pat off with a towel when your bath is done.
