Detox Baths

A way to help your body detoxify is with a simple detox bath.  Pour about a cup or so of both Epsom salts (or sea salt) and baking soda into your bath.  You can also put your favorite relaxing essential oils and then enjoy a soak for about 20 minutes.  On a smaller scale, you can do a foot soak with the ingredients scaled back to fit the size of your container.  This works especially well for smelly feet!
