For a full body or foot bath* pour four heaping spoonfuls into soothing water. Four is a stabilizing number representing the four directions & elements-
Eastern Air - Our Mind & Perspective
Southern Fire - Our Spirit & Passion
Western Water - Our Emotions & Intuition
Northern Earth - Our Body & Abdunance
Sink into water deep & healing. Feel free to place your gemstone in the bath or next to in, hold it in your hand, place it on your heart, wherever it feels right to you. Take three deep breaths and as your heart its desire - this is your magic you always carry with you, it is calling you home. Spend as much time as you need in this place. You are safe to ask and explore here.
When you are ready drain the bath. You will carry with you need, let the rest wash away. You can return your gem to the salts for next time, carry it with you, or place it somewhere special like an altar to visit whenever you need. Once you have received the medicine of the stone please consider gifting it to another creature, especially our Mother Earth who birthed this special gem.
Blessed Be.
* A note in gratitude of foot baths - This is an especially wonderful way to ground and release. Sometimes it is too hot, unrealistic, or simply exhausting to take a full body bath; these are the moments to remember the power of foot baths! Our feet soak up so much energy throughout the day and work very hard keeping us upright - both physically and energetically. If possible, soak your feet in a tall stock pot as to best submerge the ankles as well. I like to keep a kettle of hot water within arms length so I can easily top off my water if I am not ready to stop soaking. A couple foot baths a week can work wonders - especially followed by a massage with some luscious oils.
