Myths and truths about the Coarse Salt Bath

Sunday, Monday and Friday are the best days

True! The best days to take a salt bath are Friday, Sunday and Monday. First of all, Friday is ideal for eliminating negative energy accumulated during the week. If you do it on Sunday or Monday, the goal is to protect yourself from the negativity that may cross your path in the following days.

You can always take a coarse salt bath

Myth! A coarse salt bath can only be taken once every 15 days at most. This is because the ritual performs a deep cleansing, washing away both negative and positive energies. Therefore, more than two baths in a month can cause a weakening of the body and soul.

I need to take another shower next

Yes! Exactly because of the deep cleansing that the coarse salt bath provides. After performing this ritual, it is necessary to take an herbal bath immediately afterwards, to rebalance your energies and attract more harmony. In this case, a basil, bay leaf with cinnamon, rosemary and chamomile bath is recommended.

How to prepare the bath

First, boil two liters of water and dissolve seven tablespoons of coarse salt. Mix the mixture well so that all the salt dissolves in the water. Then, take your personal hygiene bath and then take the bowl with the dissolved salt and pour it from the neck down. It is important to take this precaution during the ritual because coarse salt in direct contact with the head can weaken your energy field.

Then, while you feel the prepared water running down your body, think positive thoughts and say a prayer that inspires confidence. Let your body dry naturally and finally, put on light-colored clothing.
