Himalayan Salt Lamp

How many of you have Himalayan Salt lamps?

I actually have seven around my house. Not only do I love the warm ambiance their glow creates, but the benefits are so amazing.

Benefits of Himalayan Salt Lamps

How does it work?

WebMD explains some of the benefits of negative ions:

“Generally speaking, negative ions increase the flow of oxygen to the brain; resulting in higher alertness, decreased drowsiness, and more mental energy,” says Pierce J. Howard, PhD, author of The Owners Manual for the Brain: Everyday Applications from Mind Brain Research and director of research at the Center for Applied Cognitive Sciences in Charlotte, N.C.“They also may protect against germs in the air, resulting in decreased irritation due to inhaling various particles that make you sneeze, cough, or have a throat irritation.”

And for a whopping one in three of us who are sensitive to their effects, negative ions can make us feel like we are walking on air. You are one of them if you feel instantly refreshed the moment you open a window and breathe in fresh, humid air.

Ready to go get one? (Or two, or seven) ? I really like this one.
