Bath Salts!

2  Cups Borax
1/8  Cup sea salt
1/8  Cup White Clay (kaolin clay can be found at most health food stores)
Essential oil of choice

Mix the borax, salt and clay with a wire whisk to blend well.
Add essential oil to scent (the mix will absorb a lot of oil)
Keep in mind that you want your bath salts to be about twice
as strong in scent as what you will want in the tub, due to
dilution. Scent it until it smells strong!
Then cover with a cloth and let it sit several hours to dry and
then whisk again. Done!

Add 4-6 tablespoons to the tub.

Using salts in the bath is a wonderful old fashioned remedy for aching muscles,
flu, congestion and sinus pressure. In these cases, use essential oils that have
a deep, pungent scent such as eucalyptus, thyme or pine.

Enjoy!!
