Ingredients:
• Geranium Essential Oil
• Frankincense Essential Oil
• Epsom Salt
• Bentonite Clay
• Organic Food-Grade Rose Petals
• Baking Soda (optional)
If you don't have those essential oils on hand, some other excellent options to choose from are Young Living’s proprietary Seed to Seal Premium blends Stress Away, Lavender, or Valor essential oil. It's totally okay to change it up to fit your desires. My rule of thumb is: the best oil to use is the oil you have.
Directions:
1) Pour Epsom salts into a medium-sized bowl. (Pro-tip: Choose a glass or wooden bowl/spoon, not metal.)
2) Add essential oils to the bowl. I recommend 3-4 drops of oil per cup of Epsom salts.
3) Mix in bentonite clay. (Use ¼ cup of bentonite clay per cup of epsom salt.)
4) Sprinkle in organic food-grade rose petals.
5) Mix all ingredients together until blended well.
6) Use 1 T. - 1/2 cup in a bath and store the remainder in a pretty jar.
7) Fill your tub as hot as you can tolerate, add detox bath salts, and soak for at least 20 minutes.
8) Enjoy a large glass of water before and after a detox bath to make sure you stay hydrated.
*This is not a medical recommendation. Consult your doctor if you have a medical condition before taking a detox bath.

2020 has taught me a lot . . . about myself, about others, and about the world.
And some things I know for sure after this year of uncertainty and change are that my own health and wellness is my responsibility and my outcomes are often the direct result of the choices I make. I am in control of my life.
If we are unhappy with the way we look and feel, we can decide to change it.
If we are lacking energy and motivation to do the things we want to do in life, we can take steps to change it.
If we aren’t experiencing health, wellness, and vitality, it’s up to us to change direction. No one can change that for us . . . no one BUT us. Others can help, but it’s up to us to take control.
If you’re feeling like you need to make some changes and maybe even experience a real transformation, I’d love to help! I have a free 28-Day Transformation Program that will guide you on making simple and effective shifts to implement in everyday life for sustainable change. You’ll get tools to improve your health and wellness so that you’ll feel more energized and self-confident and look your best.
