epsom salt, lavender and baking soda

The UltraBath is a key component of the seven-day UltraSimple program. It provides many powerful benefits in one easy, 20-minute solution every day. (Take a bath just before bed every night.)

Fill your tub with bathwater as hot as you can tolerate. Then add the following:

  • 2 cups of Epsom salts
  • 1 cup of baking soda
  • 10 drops of lavender oil

For extra-powerful detoxification, wrap yourself in towels immediately after the bath, get into bed under the covers and sweat more for 20 minutes, then remove the towels and go to sleep. You can go directly to sleep without rinsing off after the bath.

  1. I just want to thank you for all the great information that you freely give us. It’s powerful and I am so appreciative. I love all of your recipes too. Thank you again.

  2. For my bath, first I fill the bathtub halfway with warm water, then I get in and get my body tempered to it, and then after a few minutes I turn the tap to max-hot until the bathtub is full. I relax in the tub for 30 to 45 minutes, and I use the same ingredients described in this article, plus rose petals or rosehips or both. After 30 to 45 minutes, I empty the tub and then…I take a 30-second cold shower. You feel regenerated! I am 86 years young.
