DIY Essential Oil Bath Salt for Energy, Harmony & Healing

It’s safe to say that myself and the entire WOM team are hooked on essential oils.  In fact, I really can’t remember life before them now.  

It all started with two “gateway” oils as I like to call them…Peppermint and Lavender.   And since then, I’ve racked up quite the essential oil stash and even started an entirely new brand, Waiting On Martha Everyday and Shoppe section dedicated to essential oils and wellness among other things.  Whether I’m using them for all natural beauty, nontoxic cleaning, aromatherapy, cooking, or in easy DIY essential oil bath salt recipes like today, I’m all about the oils. 

I’m also a big believer in self care, and taking baths is one of my favorite ways to unwind and just grow quiet.  I’ve found that it’s a great time to infuse essential oils seamlessly into my . wellness routine, especially when paired with detoxifying Epsom salts.  

Below, I’m sharing three incredibly simple and beneficial DIY essential oil bath salt remedies that you’ll love soaking up.  One is wonderful for soothing tired muscles and tension, the other is great for bringing everything back to center in a harmonizing way, and the other is perfect for a jolt of inspired energy!  Disclaimer: I’m not huge on DIYs, but I can totally crank these out in less than 15 minutes.  And they would also make wonderful homemade gifts for a friend, workout buddy, coworker, or mama-to-be! xo, MKR
