Lavender essential oil is reassuring, soporific, and is often the first choice of aromatherapists for treating emotional or mental stress. It also reduces muscular pain, whether from illness or physical exertion, and soothes the skin. I can't think of a more perfect herb for a relaxing bath.
Ingredients:
4 cups epsom salts
2 cups Sea salt
1 cup non fat powdered milk
2 cups oatmeal ground to a very fine powder in a food processor or
coffeegrinder-use the old fashioned kind
40 drops of lavender essential oil
Mix together all the dry ingredients in a large bowl, sieve if you wish,then add the lavender 10 drops at a time, thoroughly mix it through. Do this 4 times, so that the lavender essential oil is distributed.I then put the mix in glass jars and put a pretty sticker on the jar with all the ingredients and the date when I made it.

Bottling Your Blends
When labeling your blends, be sure to adhere the label to the bottle, not the cap. Caps can accidentally be placed on the wrong bottle.
