There are so many incredible ways to use essential oils, and adding them to our bath routine is one of them! Whether you're making bath salts to soothe sore muscles or needing some support for dry winter skin, these recipes will help you find what you need! Check out some of our favorite bath recipes right here.

Tried and True Bath Salts This is a super easy way to use essential oils and also help give your body some magnesium! We like the magnesium flakes (less processed), but epsom salts will work as well.

• 1 cup magnesium flakes
• 20 drops essential oils of choice (Lavender, Frankincense, Peace & Calming, Tangerine, Valor)
• Simply add oils to magnesium and mix well. To use run hot water into the container of salts and let it overflow into the tub! Note: for acute needs where we are using immune supporting oils or wanting to soothe tension we will use more drops of EO. Use your discretion and do what works for you.
