The Powerful Properties Of Lavender And Sea Salt

If you’re looking for natural, organic ingredients to purify, cleanse and detoxify yourself and your space, there’s no better choice than lavender and sea salt – two ingredients that are relatively inexpensive and easily found. You can even make potpourri or enjoy a relaxing bath with homemade salts without breaking the bank.

Depending on your preference, and its intended use, you may wish to obtain your lavender in crushed or essential oil form. Either can be found at an esoteric or herbal shop. In crushed (flower) form, lavender is well-known for its aromatic quality and can be mixed with another floral scent if preferred. Lavender is also famous for its autoimmune properties and ability to stimulate mental clarity, including psychic ability.

If you like the scent of lavender, as so many do, consider buying it for multiple locations: your bath; a sachet for your pillow to assist in dreamwork; and a vial of essential oil for the nightstand.

Lavender is a cleansing herb; its name comes from the French word meaning “to clean”. We all look for quick fixes in life to detoxify and relax, and there’s no better way than this herb which has been used for centuries. For those who practice psychic work, it is a must-have. Just be sure to test yourself for allergies first!

Sea salt is one of, if not the oldest purifier known to humanity. In many cultures it is traditionally used as an absorber of energy and a healer of wounds. As a clear crystal (all salts are crystals) it will take in any psychic residue, good or otherwise. Keep this in mind when using sea salt to protect or purify your space.

Salt’s possibilities are diverse. As a solid crystal it can be used to concentrate or dampen energies, or protect a space. If you wish to mix a solution of sea salt and water, try spraying it over yourself to draw out negativity, or take a salt bath. Think of how you felt the last time you went to the beach… that’s the power of salt water in action! Or, you may simply wish to carry pieces of sea salt in a pouch or medicine bag. And salt, of course, is inexpensive and easily available.

Always throw spilled salt over your left shoulder. Keep rosemary by your garden gate. Add pepper to your mashed potatoes. Plant roses and lavender, for luck. Fall in love whenever you can ~ Alice Hoffman

Naturally, lavender and salt together are harmonious as ingredients. You may choose to combine an essential oil with your sea salt, or else chop fresh lavender into pieces to mix. Enjoy a relaxing bath, while soaking away the stresses of the day. If performing psychic work, use the mixture to concentrate and channel your spiritual energy. Keep a little bit of the potpourri on your nightstand or desk. If you’re feeling adventurous, it also makes a tasty flourish for bread or fresh vegetables.

When buying your ingredients, stop and consider what you like. Sea salt and lavender can both be found in different forms, so pick the ones that work for you and your spiritual practice. The best part is, you’ll be saving money and investing in two staples for any spiritually aware household.
