25 Uses For Epsom Salts

April 13, 2014 by Shellie Wilson Leave a Comment

Epsom salts are the new elixir of life and you can find them being used in everything from facials to craft projects. These 25 uses are brought to you by Dearcrissy.com where she shares some of the best tips and tricks to getting the most out of this miracle salt.

Epson salt has become a new favorite when it comes to DIY bath and body recipes. This roundup by dear Crissy shows you 25 different uses for Epsom salts. Some of my favorite thing to use Epsom salts for is body scrubs and foot scrubs. I have also started my son having a magnesium bath soak after his sports games to help with muscle recovery too. Epsom salts are so good for you.

 

Epsom salts and Magnesium salts are not quite the same things. Epsom Salts Is Magnesium Sulphate and Magnesium flakes are Magnesium Chloride.   So what does that mean for you, Epsom salt is harder to absorb into the body than a straight magnesium flake. But either is going to do wonders for your body and once you go Epsom salt or Magnesium you never go back.  Epsom salt/Magnesium is great for the body and mind. Epsom salt helps relax muscles and relieve pain in the body and can promote sleep. Epsom salt/Magnesium helps stabilize your mood and relieve stress, anxiety, and depression, something we all need help with.

Perimenopause Calm Down Coloring Sheets (For When You Want to Scream into a Pillow)

Free Printable Downloads for Women 40+ Navigating the Hormonal Rollercoaster

Let’s be real—there are days when being a woman over 40 feels like riding a hormone-fueled tilt-a-whirl without the safety bar. Welcome to perimenopause, my friends. If you’ve ever found yourself sweating while standing in front of the fridge, crying over a puppy food commercial, or forgetting why you walked into a room (again), you’re in good company.

That’s exactly why I created these Perimenopause Calm Down Coloring Sheets—printable pages made especially for those “I swear if someone breathes near me I’m going to scream” moments.

What Are Calm Down Sheets?

These aren’t your typical mandala coloring pages. Nope. These were lovingly illustrated with women in perimenopause and menopause in mind—think messy buns, mood swings, and a whole lot of caffeine. Each sheet includes relatable cartoons, cheeky quotes, and stress-relieving doodles that are way more satisfying to color than pretending you’re fine.

They’re perfect for:

Rage coloring during a hot flash

Cooling down after snapping at your partner for chewing too loudly

Unwinding with a glass of wine and a pack of colored pencils

Quiet moments when your brain fog lifts just enough to enjoy something creative

Why Coloring Helps During Perimenopause

There’s science behind this, promise. Coloring helps lower cortisol levels, focus your mind, and gently ease anxious thoughts. It’s like a mindfulness practice, but one that doesn’t require Lycra or a meditation app subscription. And let’s be honest—when the world feels a bit much, giving a snarky mug or frazzled cartoon woman a splash of lavender and hot pink is downright cathartic.
