Taking a salt bath is healing and detoxifying anytime but it is especially powerful to take one during a full moon and a new moon.
During a full moon, the healing ability of the body is maximized and mineral absorption is at its highest potential.
Under a new moon, cleansing is at its peak, meaning the body's ability to internally and externally detoxify itself is optimized.
The best way o take a moon bath is with Himalayan salt crystals.
Mined by hand from ancient deposits deep within the Himalayan Mountains; pink Himalayan crystal salt contains more than 80 naturally occurring minerals and is believed by many to be the purest and most therapeutic salt on the planet.
Once dissolved in a hot bath, the minerals are able to penetrate the skin and are absorbed in the form of ions. Bio-energetic weak points will be balanced and your body's energy flow will be activated. The organs' functions start to resonate with the natural frequency patterns of the minerals in the salt. This activates the body's self healing ability.
Using this unrefined, pure salt in your bath creates a solution similar to that found in a mother's womb. This allows for a decrease in boundaries between our skin and the salt solution, permitting a much higher rate of exchange. Toxins from our body are released into the bath while minerals and energies are absorbed into the skin.
Some claim that taking a 30-45 minute Himalayan salt bath has the same detoxifying effect as a three day fast.
While normal baths extract moisture from the skin, salt baths help to maintain the natural, protective film of the skin (salt is stored in the upper callus layer of the skin and binds water).
Benefits include: increased moisture retention, detoxification, decreased inflammation and skin irritations, balanced pH levels, improved circulation, cellular regeneration, restored energy, and relaxation.
Directions: Add approximately 1lb of Himalayan salt crystals to hot bath water. Wait until salt is fully dissolved (approximately half an hour depending on the size of the crystals). The hotter the water, the faster they will dissolve. Soak for 30-45 minutes or less if you become uncomfortable.
