Lemon Water
When I went to my first Young Living Oil Party, my sister gave me a glass of ice water in a mason jar and I thought, how cute. Then she asked me if I wanted to drink lemon or orange flavored water. I told her lemon and she added a couple of drops of the lemon essential oil. She explained that this was a therapeutic oil that I could take internally. I had a hard time drinking water, and always asked for sodas. But the water tasted really good! She also explained that citric oils can break down plastic, so glass needs to be used. Now I drink a glass of lemon water every morning before I drink coffee and eat breakfast. It is a good detox for our body, especially for our liver.

Uplifting, purifying, energizing, and calming. I remember hearing my grandma Chona talk about my grandpa taking Epsom salt baths. I also remember her soaking her feet in it. I thought it was for old people or aching people. Well I am there now! I got some Lavender Epsom salts from my cousin Joanie and have enjoyed soaking in it. Once I started using my oils, I knew I had to make myself some. I learned why Epsom salts are so helpful. Epsom salts have 2 main important minerals in it. Magnesium and sulfates You can read more Here They also help the body remove toxins from the skin. 
This is 4 cups of Epsom salt with 2 cups of Baking Soda. I also added some crush lavender and a bit of natural coloring. How to Draw a Detox Bath with Lavender oil and bath salts.
1. Add 5-10 drops essential oil (I love lavender) to 2 cups Epsom salt, then add to a standard tub full of water.
2. Ideally, you want the water quite hot as we are looking to create a nice sweat.
3. If your bath water is not filtered, add 1 cup of baking soda as this helps neutralize
the chemicals, primarily chlorine, as well as increase mineral absorption.
4. Immerse yourself in the water, all the way up to your neck. You want as much of your
body underwater as you can. Close your eyes, do some breathing exercises and soak for at least 20 minutes.
5. Once you are done soaking, rise out of the tub very slowly and cautiously.
You may feel a little dizzy and light-headed, this will go away as you shower off quickly in cool water.
6. It is important not to use harsh soaps or shampoos as your pores are open
and will just absorb the chemicals found in those products.
7. Once dry you can apply a natural moisturizer like body butter, shea butter
or coconut oil and some aluminum-free deodorant, but again no lotions with perfumes, dyes or chemicals.
8. Do not eat immediately before or after taking a detox bath.
9. Instead hydrate yourself with filtered water before and after.
10. Allow time after your bath to rest and rejuvenate.
