Sacred Clay
Instructions for Use
Clay & water are the most ancient health remedies of all time for both human and animal. It is my belief that they will be the ultimate remedies of the future as well. The sources for both the Sacred Clay and the Ormalite were discovered within a few miles of Crater Lake, Oregon, long revered by many as a sacred site and prized for its pristine beauty. The Crater Lake essence infuses the silica matrix of the Sacred Clay and Ormalite adding power and mystique to its already remarkable properties.
SACRED CLAY COMPARED TO OTHER CLAYS
Sacred Clay is a pyrophyllite clay, and is significantly different from bentonites, montmorillionites, pascalites & zeolites. Most other clays are made from volcanic ash, whereas pyrophyllite is made from an underground boiling lava soup, later exposed by a glacier and cooled through the action of deep underground water flows which caused it to decompose into this remarkable clay. This pyrophyllite had never seen the light of day until we unearthed it. Unlike some other clays, pyrophyllite will not swell or clump when mixed with water. It will not clog your drain pipes. It mixes easily, goes on easily, and comes off easily with water. It makes an exceptional clay facial, clay bath, body wrap and clay poultice.
I have a great amount of respect for clays of all types. All clays, in my opinion, have value and offer some of the most effective healing powers known to man. Yet, my experience is thus far proving that pyrophyllite stands out as having the most broad spectrum of benefits to human, animal, water and soil alike.
What forms does the clay come in? At this point, the Sacred Clay comes only in a dry powder, not a damp mix. The clay powder and the clay in the capsules are the exact same clay. A moist clay may become available later this year.
The capsules we use are gelatin caps, not vegetable capsules. (We discovered at great expense to our health that most all vegetable capsules are actually toxic to the human body and are difficult to digest. This is particularly true for those who take a lot of capsules. The resins they are made with generally all come from pine tree resin (hard on the kidneys) or an extract of corn (from where?). One source even had sorbitol in their blend, a common food additive, with numerous digestive complaints as side effects. For this reason, we no longer use vegetable capsules. Gelatin is actually a long-standing Chinese remedy for digestive disturbances and other health conditions.)
Can I take the Sacred Clay if I am on pharmaceutical drugs?
If you are on pharmaceutical drugs we do not advise taking the Sacred Clay powder or capsules internally. The Sacred Clay is a powerful detoxifier. Watch for the slightest adverse effect, even when taking clay baths or foot baths. The clay will pull all chemicals, heavy metals, radiation, petroleum complexes, and other poisons from the body (the prime ingredients of pharmaceutical drugs). Since most drugs imbalance the body in their effort to suppress a symptom, the body answers this pressure with a counterbalancing response in an effort to maintain balance or equilibrium. When the clay removes the drugs, the body’s counterbalancing response can cause a worsening of the symptoms that the drug was designed to suppress. For example, one on high blood pressure drugs may experience a skyrocketing of their blood pressure; one on antidepressants may experience deeper depressions, even suicidal tendencies - all of this due to the absence of the drug, having left the system before the body could make the adjustment back to normal on its own. It works similar to letting the pressure off of a compressed spring causing it to jump like a Jack-in-the-Box.
It is generally not advised to withdraw from addictive drugs too fast (no faster than 10% per week, or longer if you have been on the drug for years), due to the potentially severe withdrawal reactions that may occur. Get competent professional supervision or advice in all instances. One worthy reference book on the subject is “Your Drug May Be Your Problem” by Peter Breggin, MD & David Cohen, PhD.
Will the clay remove good nutrition from the body if herbs, vitamins, etc. are taken with the clay?
No. In fact, due to the Sacred Clay’s rich amorphous silica content and abundant mineral composition, the clay will actually make minerals and other nutrients more bioavailable. Sacred Clay makes an excellent companion to other natural foods and supplements. In contact with water, amorphous silica forms orthosilicic acids. Orthosilicic acid is the only form of bioavailable silicon known for humans and is required in the formation of collagen, bone density and the use of calcium and other nutrients in the body. In seawater, silicon exists primarily as orthosilicic acid (H4SiO4), Bioavailable orthosilicic acids are recognized as central to slowing or reversing the effects of aging.
How does Sacred Clay both nourish the body and pull out heavy metals at the same time?
The clay will naturally remove heavy metals as it adds beneficial minerals back into the body as nourishment due to the process of compounding. Heavy metals are converted into silicates and other harmless, or even biologically beneficial compounds when clay is added to the diet.
All metals and minerals are either supported or counteracted by other minerals. When full spectrum mineral sources (like clay, sea salt, seaweeds, horsetail, nettles, alfalfa, etc.) are added to the body, an abundance of counterbalancing minerals become available to the body for compounding. The counterbalancing minerals bond with the isolated heavy metals, converting them into compounds and making them either unavailable to the body or beneficial to the body.
A common example of this compounding process is found in the combination of heavy aluminum with silicon (a mineral). The compound is called “aluminosilicate” and is one of the most beneficial compounds for agriculture (and happens to be one of the most abundant of all mineral compounds found in nature). Aluminosilicate is harmless to the human body, and actually holds one of the secrets to removing heavy aluminum from the body.
Recommended Usage of the Sacred Clay
INTERNAL CONSUMPTION
Clays of all kinds have been consumed for thousands of years. Animals are known instinctively to eat clay when they are sick. It is common in some farming circles to feed their animals clay to improve digestion, improve health and harden the shells of eggs. Clay is currently used in hospitals to neutralize drug overdose. Clay is widely recognized as an antidote for food poisoning and inability to sleep. The broad spectrum of minerals in compounded forms makes clay an excellent source of mineral nutrition.
4 capsules equals 1 teaspoon of powder. A suggested therapeutic dose is 1 teaspoon (or 4 caps) 3 times per day for no more than 1-3 weeks, followed by a maintenance dose. A recommended maintenance dose of the Sacred Clay is approximately 1 teaspoon per day (or 4 capsules) taken at once or split into 2 doses throughout the day or night. For added benefits, consume with salted water by adding 1 teaspoon of sole (a saltwater brine solution - see below) to 8-12 ounces of water and drink as desired with the clay capsules, or add the loose clay to the brine & water solution before drinking. To enhance this cocktail even further, add your daily dose of Mineral Manna to the mix and consume at once or throughout the day. (Be aware that Mineral Manna already has Himalayan Salt in it so less or no extra sole may be required. Go with your own taste buds and experiences. Adjust as necessary.)
HOW TO MAKE SALT SOLE (pronounced sol-lay') SEAWATER BRINE SOLUTION
The use of sole in conjunction with the clay provides an abundance of electrolytes and minerals to the body. It is highly therapeutic as a daily program. The best salts to use are: Himalayan Salt, Celtic Salt, and Real Salt™ (from the Salt Lake area), although my preference is the Himalayan Salt. Any full spectrum mineral salt will do, but Epsom’s salt is NOT recommended. Epsom’s is not a full spectrum mineral salt like the others and is inherently less balanced. The other salts hold 70-84 minerals from the sea, proportioned by Mother Nature Herself, and they can be trusted to be balanced.
Fill a pint jar to about 1/3 with a good quality sea salt (Himalayan, Celtic, Real Salt™) then fill the rest of the way with quality water. Shake and let stand overnight or until the salt in the jar stops shrinking in appearance. (If the salt disappears, just add more salt). As long as salt is still visible and it has stopped shrinking, you will have a perfect 26% seawater brine solution (sole). If constipation occurs from detoxing with the clay, a stronger sole and water solution can be consumed. The salt nourishes the body with minerals, adds electrical energy to the body, helps to reduce detox symptoms, and acts as a laxative.
Additional Notes on the Clay
One cup of clay equals 48 teaspoons. One pound of clay provides 2 cups or 96 teaspoons. If you are OK with the somewhat metallic taste of the clay, the powder is the better buy. Just stir a teaspoonful in a cup of water and swirl the clay before drinking it. Add water to what’s left on the bottom of the cup, swirl again and drink the rest, or throw the mix into your smoothy or a potted plant.
Due to the rich electrolyte content in the Sacred Clay, even though the clay itself may test acidic, it will increase the pH of the body to an alkaline state over time (providing the diet also supports an alkaline balance). Adding the sole (saltwater brine) to the clay will enhance the electrolyte content all the more, and therefore its pH building power.
The Sacred Clay is a powerful detoxifier. It is recommended that if you suspect you are highly toxic, that you begin with 1-3 clay baths before taking the clay internally. Detox reactions are possible with the first internal dose for some, even though this is rare. Taking the clay with the sole water mixture helps to prevent detox reactions.
DETOX SYMPTOMS AND FREQUENCY OF USE
The Sacred Clay possesses powerful attractive forces which draw chemicals, heavy metals, radiation, petroleum, bacteria, and other toxins to itself. The pain and discomfort of detoxing is most often due to toxins only partially removed from the body, now hanging out in the tissues. If toxins are only partially pulled from the body (which can happen when using the clay by itself without salt) leaving some toxins still in the tissues, detox symptoms of low energy, sluggishness, irritability, spaciness, flu-like symptoms, achiness, rashes, or an increase in pain, etc. may occur. Once removed, they cease to cause the discomfort.
Due to the abundance of electrolytes (and therefore available ions) in sea salt, it helps minimize detox reactions by speeding the transfer of toxins from the body. Ions are the transport mechanism of substances in and out of the cells. The more ions present in the body, the more efficient the cells are in delivering toxins to the surface of the skin and on into the clay. If detox symptoms take place, the best remedy we have found is, surprisingly, another clay bath as soon as possible with added salt. The second bath usually completes the process of removing enough of the offending toxins to eliminate the discomfort.
Therefore, more frequent clay baths during the first few days of a detox program are preferable, (rather than stretching the baths out over time), so as to remove as much of the toxins as soon as possible. Utilizing as many detoxing methods as possible at once with this clay seems to produce the best results with the least amount of discomfort. Several 5 Minute Swishes (see below) in conjunction with the bath will further speed the removal of toxins from the body.
If detox symptoms persist, take another clay bath or perform a shower slurry (below) as soon as possible and continue repeating the procedures (always with salt) until the discomfort is completely relieved. Drinking a quart of water charged with sea salt and possibly the Sacred Clay and Black Manna also helps the body to flush the toxins from the system faster, easing stress on the liver and kidneys.
OTHER DETOX SYMPTOMS
A few people notice increased urination when first taking the clay. This is the body flushing toxins. It will pass, but if it is too uncomfortable, discontinue for awhile or reduce your dose to detox more slowly.
Constipation from detox is experienced by about 5% of the people. (Most are slightly accelerated.) Repeated clay baths or shower slurries, etc., and/or swishes (below) reduce body toxicity and replenish minerals & electrolytes necessary for proper peristalsis of the bowels. Constipation eventually gives way to excellent or slightly accelerated movements as toxicity is removed from the body and minerals are replenished.
A few people will experience bowel flushing when taking the clay at first. This too will pass with time. The body is flushing toxic substances from the bowels rapidly in order to protect you from reabsorption. The toxins are likely poisonous enough to warrant rapid removal. Again, further clay baths, even clay poultices on the gut, will reduce the overall body toxicity and shorten detox reactions.
The clay is also rich in electrolytes, and therefore provides an abundance of available ions for the movement of toxins through the cell walls and out into the clay. Ions are the transport mechanism necessary for both toxins and nutrients to pass through the cell walls. They are, in a sense, the gatekeepers.
Ions cause nutrients from the clay to move more easily from the clay to places in the body where they are needed most. Adding salt to the clay increases the number of available ions and minerals, thereby speeding the removal of toxins from the body as well as the infusion of minerals into the body.
THE 5 MINUTE CLAY SWISH (see Advisories below)
This is one of the best remedies for the mouth, gums and teeth that I know of. This method also draws toxins from deep within body organs by pulling them up through the nervous system channels that connect the various body organs of the body to the teeth. It is similar to the Ayurvedic Oil-Pulling method, yet with a more powerful pulling agent - the Sacred Clay. One drawback for some, but not all, has to do with the potential temporary discoloration of some areas of the teeth resulting from the clay bonding solidly to toxic buildup on certain spots of the teeth, particularly if your teeth may be somewhat pourous from past deteriation or receeding gums. So far, only time and a dental cleaning or polishing works to remove this discoloration. (See advisory below). We are working on a White Pyro product as a solution but it is not yet fully explored. If your teeth are subject to discoloration, try using sesame oil or olive oil instead of clay for the swish.
For now, to explore the benefits of the 5 minute swish, add 1/2 teaspoon of Sacred Clay to 1 tablespoon of water. Add 5-10 drops or more of the Black Manna (optional). Add a pinch of high quality sea salt or the sole brine (i.e. Himalayan Salt, Celtic Salt, or Real Salt™), according to taste. Swish entire contents in the mouth for 5 minutes. (Serves as an excellent pastime while in the shower each day). Spit out residue. The clay will have absorbed toxins, dissolved heavy metals and bacteria. Rinse mouth thoroughly and brush the teeth with a natural toothpaste to remove any remaining residue.
This 5 Minute Swish can be repeated every day, or every morning and night. A therapeutic treatment using this method involves performing the 5 Minute Swish five or more times in a row for a rapid detox of chemicals, viruses, parasites, heavy metals and other toxins. Brushing the teeth need only be performed at the conclusion of the last Swish.
Be advised: Typical commercial toothpastes carry Poison Control Warnings on the tube because the chalk used in the paste is actually a toxic aluminum byproduct of the chemical industry. It is placed into toothpaste so the chemical industry does not have to go about the expensive process of disposing of it as a hazardous material. Check your toothpaste labels and switch to a natural toothpaste if you find a Poison Control Warning on it.
No claims are made with regard to the improvements that are possible, yet many have reported how much they like using the clay in this manner in spite of its natural pucker factor and strong taste, (the clay has some astringent properties). If the taste of the clay is too strong for you, simply dilute it more with saltwater. Your personal experiences are welcome.
Be advised: For some, but not all, Sacred Clay will cause a temporary darkening of the teeth in area of receding gums, joints between teeth and existing pits. A diet of black tea, green tea and coffee may result in tannin buildup on the surface of the teeth which, along with normal toxin and plaque buildup, is mostly likely what the clay is bonded to. The cause of the darkening is most likely due to the porous nature of those areas of the teeth, or to the stronger presence of tannins or toxins that collect there. The clay bonds inseparably to the toxin leaving a stain. The only sure remedy for darkened spots on the teeth is a polishing or cleaning by the dentist. So far nothing else has worked.
We are currently investigating a white pyrophyllite version that does not stain the teeth, and if successful we will provide this product to the public for Mouth Swishes and teeth cleaning.
Will the clay cause my fillings or crowns to deteriorate or fall out? No, the clay removes heavy metals that are in solution, (that are free in the saliva), that have attached themselves to your teeth or absorbed into the membranes of the mouth and gums. It will not deteriorate large pieces of metal (although it may remove the dull oxidized layers of the metal making it more shiny). Amalgam fillings are much more affected by Electromagnetic Frequencies (EMF’s). EMF’s are known to cause metal fillings to deteriorate more rapidly resulting in increased levels of heavy metal toxicity. (All the more reason to be using the clay.)
Be advised: EMF fields are generated from cell phones, wireless computer technology, cell phone towers, CRT TV’s and computer monitors (the fat ones), cordless telephones, microwave ovens, high tension wires, etc. With the increase of wireless internet and cell phone usage and the increasing number of cell phone towers being installed without regard for human health, EMF hazards have multiplied many times over in the last 12 months alone. These are some of the more likely suspected causes of rapid deterioration of fillings in the mouth being reported now in increasing numbers (by non-clay users as well).
AS A TOOTHPASTE
The Sacred Clay provides exceptional cleaning power when used as a toothpaste although, by itself, it is not an easy product to brush with, from the standpoint of taste and ease of use. The clay is pungent and gritty. It does not suds or foam like normal toothpaste, so it may take some getting used to. It can, however, be added to natural toothpaste to improve its cleaning power. You may also make your own toothpaste by adding sea salt, essential oils and other oils to the clay. If brushing with the clay alone is too uncomfortable, a mouth swish followed by brushing with a natural toothpaste while leaving some clay residues in the mouth, or sprinkled on the toothbrush, may work just as well.
The astringent quality of the clay causes a bit of a pucker when used, yet most people get used to it, or enjoy it because of what it feels like afterwards. The clay absorbs toxins, mercury and other heavy metals, viruses, bacteria and parasites in the mouth. The rich silica and mineral content in the clay nourish both teeth and gums, improving the general health of each.
Once again, for some, but not all, brushing with Sacred Clay will cause a temporary darkening of the teeth in the areas of receding gums, joints between teeth and existing pits for reasons mentioned above. The only sure remedy for darkened spots on the teeth is a polishing or cleaning by the dentist.
We are currently investigating a white pyrophyllite version that does not stain the teeth, and if successful we will provide this product to the public for Mouth Swishes and teeth cleaning. If you are one whose teeth darkens with brushing or Mouth Swishes it is best to discontinue those practices and apply external poultices on the cheeks and neck instead to remove toxins. The clay is powerful enough to pull toxins from the gums directly through the cheek and neck tissues.
No claims are made with regard to the improvements that are possible, yet many have reported how much they like using the clay in this manner. Your personal experiences in this area are also welcome.
AS A SHAMPOO
Rubbing a small handful of clay into the hair and leaving it there for a minute or more (as long as you wish), will clean and nourish the hair, detoxify the scalp and reduce unfriendly microorganisms. It leaves the hair soft and manageable. No shampoo needed. Conditioner is optional.
Caution: All chemicals in the hair will be absorbed by the clay. This includes hair colorings. Test a small area for a prolonged period of time to see if the clay will change the color of your hair, then use at your own discretion and risk. The results are unknown at this time what changes may occur.
There have been no studies done to determine what improvements to the hair and scalp may take place if the Sacred Clay is used in this manner. Common sense says the silica in the clay and the hair are a good match for each other. If you experience improvements and want to share it with us (or with the world) feel free to call or email us with your story.
CLAY BATH & BODY SLURRY
A clay bath is normally accomplished with 1/2 cup of Sacred Clay placed in the water (or first rubbed onto the body for a more profound effect - this is called a “body slurry”). 1-3 baths per week is the suggested therapeutic frequency. 1 clay bath per week is the suggested maintenance frequency. Adding 1-2 tablespoons of quality sea salt to the water (and/or body slurry) enhances the ion exchange at the cellular level and reduces possible detox symptoms. More salt than this may result in an increase in heart rate, and for some, blood pressure, due to the increased circulation stimulated by the electrolytes in the clay and the salt combined.
For an even more powerful detoxification experience use the premixed Sacred Bath packets or bulk powder. Sacred Bath contains: Sacred Clay (pyrophyllite clay), Humic & Fulvic Extract, Himalayan Salt & Ormalite. A single packet (1/3 cup) is all that is needed for an effective, detox experience.
Caution: When placing the clay in the water, stay close to the water while pouring, or mix the clay with some water first, then pour into the tub (or rub on your body). The dry powder is very fine and will create a dust cloud that lingers in the air and may cause difficulty breathing. Avoid breathing the dust of this clay while mixing or pouring. If a dust cloud is created, turn the overhead vent fan on and leave the room until clear.
A body slurry done with the clay just before sitting down into the water speeds the removal of toxins closest to the surface. Best applied in the tub or shower to avoid a mess. No need to wait to get into the water after rubbing the clay on, unless you want to. The initial detoxing effect takes place electromagnetically and happens immediately.
No herbs have been added to this clay, though one may do so if they wish.
The temperature of the water can be as hot or warm or cold as you want it to be, it does not matter with this clay (although excessive heat tends to drain the energy from the body). Just be comfortable. All action is done electromagnetically at the ionic level, and temperature does not affect it that much in this case.
For the body slurry, the ratio of water to clay is about 1 part water to 2 parts clay. (For 1/2 cup of clay add 1/4 cup of water plus a tablespoon more of water.) For best results, dissolve 1 tablespoon of quality sea salt in 5 tablespoons of water (1/4 cup plus 1 tbspn.), then add this saltwater brine to 1/2 cup of clay, and stir into a thick paste.
Rub this mixture all over the body while standing in the tub, then sit down. Once you are in the tub the clay will easily fall off into the water and continue to draw toxins from the body for the length of the bath. Due to the potency of this clay (especially in combination with sea salt), no more than 1 cup of clay is needed for an effective detox bath, although if more clay is used the detoxification experience is qute powerful. Detox reactions can be expected for a few days following.
The average length of a clay bath is 30-45 minutes as desired. Make the temperature of the water whatever is comfortable. The objective is to enjoy the experience.
Be advised: The Sacred Clay possesses strong electromagnetic forces that bond tightly to toxins. This strong attractive force is evident when the clay bonds to chemical toxins on the palms, fingers, fingernails, or on the feet causing a temporary discoloration. The creases in the skin, the cuticles, and under the nails may turn dark or light grey. No amount of scrubbing or soaps seem to get it off. It will wear off in a day or more by itself. This is an indication of toxicity that had buried itself in the skin and the clay formed an inseparable bond with it. The toxins were bonded to the tissues and the clay bonded to the toxins. Soon the skin and toxins both are shed naturally. Eventually, as the body gets cleared of the toxins, this greying effect will cease to happen and the clay can be handled freely without discoloration. The greying effect, while unpleasant at first, is evidence of the clay’s powerful ability to neutralize harmful substances in the body.
1 lb. of clay is 2 cups (4 baths). 2 lbs. of clay is 4 cups (8 baths). 5 lbs. of clay is 10 cups (20 baths).
Reuse of the Clay in the Tub: Unless you have reason to believe the clay remaining at the bottom of the tub is excessively toxic (as can happen during the first few baths), the residual amounts of clay left on the bottom of the tub after the water has drained out can be reused requiring less new clay to be added for the next bath. Just place a washcloth in the drain and allow the water to drain out. What’s left can be used again with a little extra fresh clay.
Soap Ring: Initially, a soft scummy ring of orangish brown may form at the water level. This is soap scum from previous baths being softened by the clay. It will now be easier to clean off, and future clay baths are likely to leave the tub cleaner than usual. The appearance of black silt at the bottom of the tub is, in most cases, just components of the clay that separated out in the water. In some cases however, this may be the result of toxins that were removed from the body. (One man who had spent years in the automotive industry changing oil found a 1/8th inch thick slick of oil at the bottom of his first bath.) As a precaution, it is advised to not reuse the clay at the bottom of the first three baths.
Once again, no claims are made and your personal experiences are welcome.
Caution: It has been observed that towels in contact with wet clay for a length of time may get discolored orangish brown. Even drying off when some clay may remain on the body has discolored some towels. Nothing seems to work to get out these stains (or lack of dye if absorption is the reason). Therefore it is advisable to use old or dark towels in conjunction with the use of the clay, or be sure to rinse thoroughly before drying.
SHOWER SLURRY
When a bath tub is not available or preferred, a 1-2 minute (or as long as desired) body slurry during a shower is a refreshing way to clear energetic static and surface toxins. Just mix the Sacred Clay and water in a bowl with a seal tight lid (to keep extra shower water out). Optional: add a Sacred Bath to every pound of Sacred Clay to increase the Shower Slurry detox experience. Notice the energetic lift and sense of well being after a minute or so of rubbing a thin layer of the Sacred Clay onto the body. A Shower Slurry just before bed is a great way to reduce restless legs and improve sleep.
LEAVING CLAY RESIDUES ON THE BODY AND ITS DEODERANT EFFECT
Leaving clay residues on the body for several hours or a day after a bath or shower before thoroughly rinsing it off is actually beneficial, with the exception of the towel effect just mentioned. In fact, a very slight amount of dry clay or liquid solution of the clay rubbed under the armpits helps reduce bacterial growth and body odor.
FOOT BATHS
Add 1-2 tablespoons of the Sacred Clay and 1-2 teaspoons of quality sea salt to a gallon or so of warm water. Soak the feet for as long as desired. Repeat as often in a day as desired as well.
Be advised: While one may consider foot baths to be a lighter form of detox than clay baths or body wraps, toxins having to travel from other parts of the body and down through the legs to get to the feet where the pull is coming from, can build up in energetically blocked areas of joints or bone or muscle, or just may not get to the feet before the foot bath is terminated. The toxins may be left in the tissues and the net result can be more discomfort after the foot bath than before.
The Sacred Clay and the salt are a powerful combination capable of pulling toxins from deep within the body. Because a bath provides this powerful draw to take place over most of the body surface at once time, rather than at just the feet, more toxins are removed more quickly, and therefore, sooner cease to be a bother.
While clay baths are a more effective detox approach than foot baths, there are times when a foot bath will provide extra concentrated attention on the feet themselves producing remarkable results.
If you are doing electric foot baths, try adding a teaspoon to a tablespoon of Sacred Clay to the bath water and salt solution. The reports from personal experience and from others are that the clay further empowers the detoxification process.
ALL NIGHT FOOT POULTICE
Drawing from a popular European practice, an All Night Foot Poultice can serve as an excellent accelerator to any detox/rejuvenation program. Simply mix 1 pound of Sacred Clay and one Sacred Bath packet (or 1/3 cup of the bulk Sacred Bath powder). If Sacred Bath is not available, substitute water with 1/2 cup Sole (or add 1-2 tablespoons of dry sea salt or Himalayan Salt to the water). Add 1/2 cup of water, Sole or salt/water mixture, and mix to a thick paste.
Spread the mixture over both feet, top and bottom, approx 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick. Slip a grocery bag or zip lock bag, over each foot, (or wrap in saran wrap) to hold moisture in. Put socks on to hold it all together and go to bed. The next morning, unwrap in the tub or shower and rinse off. Enjoy the lighter, zestier feeling, increasing with each All Night Foot Poultice. Excellent for reducing excess swelling.
GOING DOWN THE DRAIN
Being a pyrophyllite clay (rather than a bentonite or montmorillonite), there is no concern about the clay going down the drain (unless you are on a septic system without a separate grey line). It falls apart easily in water and will not clump or swell like some other clays. (do not let a bentonite, or other swelling clays go down your drains. The swelling, clumping action of these clays may clog your drain). Sacred Clay will not clog your drain and will even help clean up the city’s toxic waste runoff or water recycling centers.
SEPTIC SYSTEMS
If you are on a septic system and the tub water goes into your septic tank, you may want to push a cloth into the drain as the water goes down to minimize the clay going into the septic, then wipe up the remaining clay and throw it onto your garden. A large abundance of clay over a very long period of time (5-20 years) could eventually slow down the drainfields (although this is actually very unlikely to happen given the size of most drainfield pipe openings and depth of rock and filtering material beneath the drainfield). Occasional 1/2 cup bath-sized clay deposits pose no problem since the vast majority of the clay will go to the bottom of your septic along with other debris. Older septic systems in an unknown condition may pose a greater risk of sediment buildup than newer systems (due to prior buildup). Where questions exist, simply use a washcloth or towel to wipe up the remaining clay at the bottom of the tub and throw this clay on your garden, or in your potted plants, or in your compost. Even the water from the tub will greatly benefit the development of your garden. There is great benefit offered by this clay to plants, produce, fruit and to the soil’s biology.
AS A POULTICE
Mix enough clay with salt and water to cover the area being treated with 1/4 to 3/4 inch of clay (more on areas of special interest). Wrap the area with a damp gauze or old towel (do not use good towels or material) then wrap that with Saran Wrap or plastic to keep the moisture in.
Caution: It has been observed that towels in contact with wet clay may get discolored orangish brown. Even drying off when some clay may remain on the body has discolored some towels. Nothing seems to work to get out these stains (or lack of dye if absorption is the reason). Therefore it is advisable to use old towels, unneeded cloth or white throwaway rolls of gauze.
Leave the poultice on for as long as it is still wet, or as long as you can, even overnight, and/or throughout the day, for best results. Repeat if necessary to further the healing along. The longer the clay remains on and damp, the better and faster it works. Drying is not necessary to pull toxins. It is acceptable to leave the clay on the body for as long as 12 -24 hours if this were practical. I know of some who have left the clay on small spots of the body under a bandage for as long as two weeks with excellent results.
AS A FACIAL
Same as the poultice. Spritz occasionally with water to keep moist for as long as desired. Even a 20 minute facial will soften the skin and reduce redness, pimples and blackheads.
Will this clay eliminate wrinkles?
We have observed a softening and tightening of the skin and a slight smoothing of some wrinkles, but not all. Adding coconut oil and other oils to the clay and/or skin gives the appearance of wrinkle reduction due to the temporary saturation of the skin with the oil. Wrinkles are largely due to skin dehydration and hormonal imbalances in the body, originating from exhaustion of the kidney and adrenals. The formation of orthosilicic acids along with the minerals in the clay may help restore power to the kidney & adrenal glands and may slow down wrinkle development, but we do not claim it to be a wrinkle eliminator.
TO TREAT DRINKING WATER & IMPROVE BODY HYDRATION
Adding 1/8th teaspoon of Sacred Clay to a cup or a gallon of water will absorb toxins, chemicals and bacteria. Adding 5-10 drops of Black Manna to a cup or gallon of water will restructure the water molecules to something similar to deep underground aquifer water.
The consumption of 1-2 quarts per day of slightly salted water (Himalayan Salt or high quality sea salt) with 1/4 to 1 teaspoon of sea salt sole (see above) per quart, does wonders for keeping the body properly hydrated. Adding 5-10 drops (or your daily dose of 1/2 teaspoon or more) of Black Manna to the water helps to restructure the water, thereby enhancing the water’s nourishing and tonifying properties. Overall body health will steadily improve with this simple mineral rich, hydrating procedure and will greatly complement any other healing program. These three methods together will also provide essential trace minerals and infuse the water with a higher frequency.
