Himalayan Salt Lamps
Are They for Real??
Do you believe all the hub bub that Himalayan salt lamps purify the air in your room? They’re supposed to trap airborne pollutants on their surface…….hmmmmmmm. Then you remove the pollutants from the salt lamp with a damp cloth. In addition the lamps are supposed to generate negative ions which really do have health benefits. Studies have shown that the reading of negative ions is way too low to make a positive effect on our health issues.
Let me share with you the benefits I have found having a salt lamp. To begin with my daughter has one and she got me hooked; I couldn’t keep my eyes or hands off it. So I purchased one of my own and I have to say that it is one of the prettiest tabletop fixtures in my house. It has the dreamiest orange-peach-salmon color and the shape of it easy on the eyes. It holds six salt balls that fit perfectly in my hand and has a knob to control the color and heat intensity.
I turn it up to the max in the morning and once it’s heated up I’ll take a couple of the hot salt balls and roll them all over the back of my neck, shoulders and around to the front of my neck; HEAVEN! Holding one in each hand while meditating is also wonderful. At night while watching TV I turn the lamp down and the dim color provides a perfect night light for the living room. It’s that same pleasing effect I experience when I have just the Christmas lights on.
Himalayan salt lamps make terrific gifts for anyone and guaranteed to bring happiness and a feeling of peace and warmth in their hearts. And who can’t use a good dose of that?
