Magnesium is often called the calming mineral for a reason. It supports muscle relaxation and helps regulate the nervous system.
An Epsom salt foot soak before bed gives your body magnesium sulfate (and while absorption through the skin is still debated) many people notice they feel calmer afterward!
That’s the combination of warmth, magnesium, and simply slowing down.
It’s really very simple… get yourself something just large enough to soak your feet and add:
• Warm water
• ½ cup Epsom salt
• Soak 15–20 minutes
• Rinse, dry, and moisturize
You could also go for a full bath and add 1 cup Epsom salt, but a foot bath feels more attainable to do it on a regular basis.
Nothing complicated, just a gentle way to support your body to rest 🤍
