DIY Epsom Salt Dead Sea Salt Scrub

My skin has been super dry this winter and nothing has offered relief, at least not long term. I made this yesterday and so far I am in love. Skin is feeling super smooth, I even put it in my hair for the best hair day I’ve had in awhile. Epsom salts are known to give hair volume and contribute to relaxation. Dead Sea salts are wonderful for dry skin. If you don’t have Epsom salts or Dead Sea salts you can also use sea salt course or fine grain work. Let me know what you think!

What You Need:

1 1/2 cups Epsom salt
1/2 cup Dead Sea salt
1 cup olive oil or your oil of choice
20 drops of your favorite essential oil or blend, I used a blend called gentle baby (geranium, rosewood, coriander, palmarosa, lavender, yang ylang, chamomile, lemon, jasmine and rose)
Mason jar

What You Do:

Combine ingredients until mixed well. Leave in shower or by the sink and massage into skin then rinse off. Use as needed.

Enjoy!

Meditation for Toddlers

Sometimes toddlers get over tired, over stimulated or just have trouble winding down for nap time. Just like adults, sometimes toddlers need a little help relaxing. This video was inspired for a little girl who plays hard and has trouble sleeping. Its great for parents and caregivers to watch and model with their toddler for 5 minutes of quiet time for everyone. 😉
