Asucre Induppu ~ Himalayan Pink Salt
Himalayan pink salt is believed to be one of the best
sources of natural minerals on earth and gets its pink shade from the high
mineral and iron content. It has all kinds of nutritional and therapeutic
properties, not to mention culinary uses. Himalayan salt is a natural mineral
made up of two electrolytes, sodium and chloride. Natural salt is one of
the fundamental components for life and all living creatures need a supply for
survival.
When Himalayan salt dissolves in water, it creates a concentrated,
electrically charged blend containing 84 trace minerals that match those found
in our body. These traces are not found in commonly used refined, bleached and processed
table salt. The reason this ionic, mineral-rich solution is so
nourishing is because the sole solution that is created makes the salt the
right size to be easily absorbed and metabolized by the cells in the human
body. Many people indulge in this therapeutic salt for bathing to
align with the phases of the moon. This is known as Moon Bathing or Moon Rhythm
Bathing. When the moon is full, our healing potential peaks and
mineral absorption is optimized. During a new moon, cleansing is peaked, and
the body’s potential to internally and externally cleanse and detoxify peaks.
Rejuvenating salt baths have been known for their therapeutic
benefits for thousands of years. Simply by adding Himalayan salt to a bath, we
can create a rejuvenating, detoxing, and relaxing in-home-spa experience.
There are many types of salt we can add to our bath water,
however, we recommend Himalayan pink salt, as it is rich in vital minerals that
our skin and body readily absorb including, bicarbonate, bromide, calcium,
copper, iodine, iron, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus, potassium, selenium,
sodium, sulfate, and zinc. Taking a mineral bath is known as balneotherapy, and the
process of absorbing minerals through the skin is known as “dermal absorption.” It
is believed that the health benefits of soaking our skin in minerals are
greater than if we were to orally consume the minerals.
Estimates suggest that every day we are exposed to anywhere
between 700,000 and 2.1 million different toxic chemicals from our food, water,
the air we breathe, clothing, and personal and household products. Mixing mineral-based salt to water creates a unique ionic
solution that helps to extract these toxins from our skin and tissues through a
process known as reverse osmosis.
Himalayan salt not only pulls waste toxins out of the skin,
which block pores and cause a dull complexion, but it also draws water out of
the body, preventing water retention. In a regular bath, moisture is extracted from the skin, as
our body fluids are a salt solution rather than solely water. However,
adding natural sea salt to our bathwater that contains 84 different
nutrients that easily absorb into our skin is significantly less drying, and
due to the minerals blend, the pH balance of the skin is restored.
After bathing, we will immediately notice that our skin
feels soft, supple, and has a radiant, healthy glow as our pores and cells have
been cleansed and purified from the inside out.
Salt has anti-fungal, antibacterial, and antiseptic
qualities, which makes it the perfect antidote to skin irritations, infections,
and rashes. The high mineral content in Himalayan salt helps to
lightly plump the outer skin and creates a protective barrier over it. Himalayan salt reduces inflammation, therefore it can
help us to wind down and relax after a stressful day, making it easier to
achieve a restful sleep.
Due to the presence of magnesium and other trace minerals,
salt baths can offer relief from cramped, tired, and aching muscles with studies
finding that regular salt bathing can alleviate pain, reduce inflammation, and
improve Rheumatological diseases.
Salt air has anti-bacterial, ant-inflammatory, and
antimicrobial properties, so when we naturally inhale the salty water from the
bath, the minute particles flow through our respiratory system. The lungs
absorb these tiny particles, and this process can alleviate respiratory
conditions such as hay fever, coughs, chest and sinus infections, asthma, and
allergies. The first and most obvious benefit we notice when soaking in
a salt-water bath is that once we immerse ourselves in the bath our
worries, anxiety, and stress quickly subside, and peace and harmony are
restored.
To get the most benefit from this refreshing and energizing
salt-water bath, shower and wash with your regular choice of shampoo and soaps
prior to soaking in the bath. Mixing elements, such as, air, fire, and water is known to
be spiritually cleansing and healing, so open a window a little, light a few
candles, and play some relaxing background music. Dry brushing the skin, known as French bathing, removes
toxins, loosens dead skin cells, increases circulation, reduces inflammation,
increases muscle tone, and opens the pores to intensify the detox process.
To remain hydrated during the bath, regularly sip water,
which also releases toxins. The concentration of the salt bath should be around the same
salt concentration in our body fluids, which is approximately 0.9 percent salt
solution.
An average bath uses between 25-35 gallons of water, so to
achieve a similar balance, mix approximately one ounce of salt per gallon of
water, which will work out to around 1.5 to 2 pounds of salt. Fill the bath about four inches deep with hot water, then
add the Himalayan pink salt and stir the water until the flakes have dissolved.
Then fill the rest of the tub with lukewarm water.
It is essential that the water temperature is not too hot or
too cold, and it is advisable to bathe in water as close to body temperature as
possible, which is approximately 37° Celsius or 97° Fahrenheit. This allows for
maximum absorption of the minerals. The salt bath resembles the temperature and ionic make-up of
the amniotic fluid we are submerged in when in the womb, which is one of the
reasons it feels so safe, relaxing, and healing. There is no need to adjust the water temperature once you
are in it, as the bath will remain at a constant temperature because of
the biophysical composition of the salt, which is so strong that it causes the
molecules to move in a constant rhythm.
The body’s organ functions resonate with the natural rhythm
of the molecules, which recharge the body and mind, reactivate the body’s
regulatory mechanism, boosts metabolism, and triggers cellular healing. At least once a week, at the end of the day, soak in a
Himalayan salt bath for around 20-30 minutes—the experience is known to be
similar to soaking in an ocean of energy. Don’t rinse the skin in the shower at the end of the bath,
just lightly towel dry to achieve the optimum benefits.
After this therapeutic body, mind, and soul experience, your
muscles will be relaxed and may feel a little weaker than usual, so indulge in
some well-earned rest, with a good book and a cup of warm herbal tea, and relax
for at least 30 minutes.
On regular bath days, you can cleanse and exfoliate the skin
with a bar of Himalayan salt soap.

Himalayan sea salt is said to help encourage better, more
restful sleep due to its high mineral content. It may be hard to believe, but
eating enough salt in your diet daily is actually key to a good night’s rest as
a natural sleep aid.
Research shows that low-sodium diets can cause disturbed and
irregular sleep patterns. The study was small, but the results were very
interesting. Subjects on low-sodium diets (around 500 milligrams a day) woke up
during the night almost twice as often and got about 10 percent less sleep than
those on a normal diet (2,000 milligrams of sodium a day). A high-sodium diet
(5,000 milligrams a day) led to even longer sleep than the normal diet with
fewer nighttime waking’s.
You can mix equal parts of your conditioner and rock salt and apply it on your hair. Wash off after 20-30 minutes. This will add volume to your hair.

As Dr. Michael V. Vitiello, the director of the Sleep and
Aging Research Program at the University of Washington in Seattle, keenly
points out, “low levels of sodium in the blood cause blood volume to decrease,
and the sympathetic nervous system becomes more active in order to compensate.
That causes sleepers to wake up more often and have difficulty going back to
sleep.”
