Epsom salts ---> dreaming

Posted by BB [542.1351] on February 24, 2006 at 12:31:15:

I applied Epsom salts mixed with coconut oil one night and actually remembered my dream. Then the next night I didn't use it and didn't remember my dream. Then the following night I did use it and I remembered my dream. Strange huh? So far it has not helped me to get to sleep faster though.

It is probably the Magnesium in the Epsom Salts.

Sometimes after an Epsom salts bath, I'll have really vivid, wild dreams. Doesn't happen every time (or at least as I can remember), but I don't measure the amount used.....sometimes I get rather liberal with it, and that's for sure when I'll have wild dreams.

Did you apply it directly to the skin? How did you do this? How much of each did you mix together? I've heard of epsom salt baths, but not putting it directly on the skin.

Check out http://www.enzymestuff.com/epsomsalts.htm

Look at "Epsom salt oil" on the bottom of the page. I don't really take baths that much (prefer the shower) so I liked this method better. The paragraph below explains it:

Epsom salt oil – Neither of my sons nor I liked the salty film left on the skin after a bath (felt itchy). I mixed some coconut oil in with the salts and water. Actually, it is more oil than water. Three tablespoons water plus four tablespoons salts plus 12 tablespoons coconut oil. The coconut oil is good for the skin anyway and it seems to counter the drying effect of the salts. I found that just mixing the salts and oil did not dissolve the salts, so I needed to add some water. I apply this liberally on the skin and it soaks in plus leaves the skin smooth and soft. Adjust the quantity of salts to your liking.

I've never heard this about epsom salts, but do know that vitamin B6 is the specific nutrient which helps you remember dreams. I have been taking large doses of it as part of a nutritional program and have been amazed to begin remembering dreams again almost every night.
