How Himalayan Salt Lamps Help Relieve Anxiety

The stresses of everyday life can become overwhelming at times, so it's nice to have a way to decompress and fight the stress that progressively builds over the work week. If you've never heard about the Himalayan salt lamp, you definitely need to because it has recently been associated with some amazing benefits.

Our constant exposure to technology is having a surprisingly detrimental effect on our well-being and may result from the emission of positive ions and artificial light that surrounds us constantly. Everyday technology like cell phones or televisions and artificial light from our workplace are all throwing our homeostasis out of whack. It's time that you find some much-needed relief.

The Himalayan salt lamp can soothe your stress in a number of different ways.

People online are excited about the potential benefits of Himalayan salt lamps for stress and anxiety. 

Not only can salt lamps improve your mood, they might also have effects on the human body. I'll fill you in on a few of these.

1. Salt lamps are supposed to counter positive ions with negative ions. 

It's important to put several large salt lamps around your house. Bigger salt lamps will distribute more negative ions in your living space and counter those positive ones that can cause stress. You don't have to buy this many lamps, but you get the idea. 

2. They purify the air around you. 

Some even believe that the negative ions emitted by these powerful lamps can eliminate many of the radioactive waves coming from our numerous electronic devices that fill our homes. 

Believe it or not, these lamps may even benefit your body more directly...

3. They may help you combat disease.

Some people believe that the "electric smog" that radiates from our electronic devices can result in cancer, but negative ions are believed to clear at least some of it up. 

Also, people believe that the Himalayan salt lamp can reduce blood pressure. Hey, if you combine a salt lamp, meditation, and a cute cat to pet, you will be in serious zen mode. 

If you combine a salt lamp, meditation, and have a cute cat around, you will be in serious zen mode. Or you could just buy this lamp... 

4. Boosts your energy levels. 

The daily grind can become too much at times and salt lamps have been associated with higher energy in general. Having more energy will only build upon the stress relief you're getting from the lamp. This may result from better oxygen flow to the brain. 

5. Can help you fall asleep faster.

We all know that we are a better version of ourselves when we get good sleep. You are more relaxed and just happier in general. I personally sleep with a salt lamp next to me at night because of the soothing mood it induces in a low-lit room. 

6. May improve coughing and allergies. 

Not only do the negative ions clear out positive ones in your home, the lamp is thought to attract dust as well, which can lead to benefits in breathing. 

Well, there you have it. Through many different avenues, Himalayan salt lamps are quite powerful and may prove to be beneficial in the fight against stress and anxiety.
