The soothing bath tea that helped heal me up 🩵 Last week I got hit with an awful allergic reaction - incredibly itchy, awful rash all over my body, I could hardly sleep because it was so uncomfortable and I was absolutely miserable 😭 the doctor really wasn’t much help so I had to figure out how to deal with it myself. When it comes to itchy rashes, my preference for care is soaking the affected area. So, my partner and I created this blend.
The bag of flowers is a combination of chamomile, calendula, chickweed, rose, & lavender, the other bag to the side is a combination of colloidal oats, baking soda, a bit of dried coconut milk powder, and Epsom salts. I made the tea, poured it into the bath along with the other ingredients, added a dash of lavender EO and laid in the bath for 20-30 minutes. After that, I felt so rejuvenated and relaxed I was able to immediately take a 3 hour long nap after barely sleeping for days. It truly was a life saver for me & my sanity!
If youre ever struggling with a flare up of eczema or another itchy skin condition, I highly recommend you get some herbs together and make a blend for yourself! If you don’t feel like making it but you’re interested in acquiring any, reach out! I made a batch with & without the coconut since I know many people are sensitive to it! I also did not add the EO to the dried mixes to be conscious of sensitivities there, as well.
I hope this helps someone out there! Let me know what you do when you have bad reactions, I’d love to see what other folks are doing to take care of themselves too!
