Hernan believes every day should be bookended with activities to promote relaxation. "I have my nighttime routine where I jump in the bath, and it's like my time to decompress," she says. To elevate it, she uses the Dr. Teal's Pure Epsom Salt Soaking Solution ($5, originally $9), which she buys from Amazon. "It's so good for your body."
Taking a bath at night isn't just a luxurious self-care habit — it's proven to be good for you. "When your body temperature goes up right before bed, it does help with a better night's sleep," she says.
Pro Tip: Dr. Teal's has different variations of its Epsom salt mixes, from a restorative blend with pink Himalayan salt to a cozy vanilla-scented option. To use, you simply mix it in with hot water, and it dissolves into a luxurious bath. Epsom salt is said to help with muscle soreness, insomnia, and inflammation and swelling in the joints, among other benefits.
