THE DIVINE FEMININE PEARL-INFUSED HYDRATING SEA SALT SOAK - Sun Potion

THE DIVINE FEMININE PEARL-INFUSED HYDRATING SEA SALT SOAK

"Oh, mother,

I feel you all around. I see you in the softness of the morning air, in every moment of stillness in my day, & in the moments that I am most vulnerable. You are all around. You are divine feminine. Thank you for carrying & holding me wherever I go." - Melissa

Dear Sun Potion community, we meet again!

This year I've personally worked on slowing down. I embrace the softer, more yin moments of my life and leaning into them with patience and respect. After all, everything & everyone is our teacher in this life. It IS why we are here. What a beautiful thing it is to be able to feel it all. I am so incredibly grateful.

I didn't always feel this way. The shadow that showed up in my life so often made me want to run away. In the same way, I ran away from the soft, slow moments that made me face myself. But not anymore.

Today I invite you to celebrate stillness, love, compassion & growth.

Life is cyclical; you will have a chance to go back to your regular schedule, but don't rush it!

I've created a bath soak recipe using one of my favorite Sun Potion products, Pearl powder. Deborah Hanekamp inspired me with her book Ritual Baths, which is all about self-care rituals drawing on the power of mother earth.

Why these ingredients

Pearl & Sea Salt are traditionally valued sources of minerals. A hot bath opens the pores and makes for a deeply nourishing soak.

Dried Florals are soothing to the skin & enhance the chill effect.

Rose Quartz is heart-opening.

Lemon is energetically cleansing to the aura & energetic body.

EO's can help you settle into a calm, relaxed state.

& LOVE, well, that is always a good idea. We can always use more of that.

Luminous Pearl Infused Sea Salt Soak for The Divine Feminine

Ingredients

1 tsp. Pearl

1 tsp. dried lavender

1 tbsp. dried rosebuds

1 lemon sliced with a mandolin or thinly cut

⅓ cup ground Himalayan sea salt (I buy the big bag at the store & grind it in a blender)

¼ cup light coconut milk

1 rose quartz stone (small)

Essential oil of choice — I used a soft floral blend

Tools

1 Muslin bag

1 small mason jar

measuring cups

measuring spoons

mandolin or sharp knife

Love

Method

Place your dry ingredients in the jar, add your coconut milk. Give it a good shake. Option to infuse with rose quartz overnight. If you're not using this soak right away, store it in the fridge.

When you're ready to use, place your mixture in a muslin bag & inside a hot bath (no one likes a messy bathtub.)

Now, add your sliced lemons to your bath. I like to sage the space to clean the energy before entering my bath; this sacred plant represents the feminine.

Add any other tools to this time that will help you relax & open your heart. I added my rose quartz crystal comb to my ritual to enhance the effects of love.


Now you're ready. Take this time to nurture yourself, as a mother would.
Mother's Day means & feels different for everyone. That's okay! Trust me that you are not alone.
I love you.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much Pearl goes in the soak?
One teaspoon of Sun Potion Pearl, mixed with a third of a cup of ground Himalayan salt, dried lavender, rosebuds and coconut milk.

Why use a muslin bag?
It keeps the florals and salt contained so the bath stays clean while the soak infuses the water.

How long does the soak keep?
Store it in the fridge if you are not using it right away; the rose quartz can infuse overnight.
