Sinus Congestion

I found a simple but very helpful remedy. Put a couple drops of Peppermint Oil on my hands and rub them together. Then I cup my hands over my nose and mouth and inhale deeply through my nose.

If your sinuses are congested it will be painful for a few seconds, but should soon let us.
"I always feel better when using this method. It is great to use when traveling as well."  

Works for those headaches when they come from your sinus or temples.

This is a good one for indigestion or stomach problems. Usually a quick way for relief.

Recipe for Congestion Helps

Combine the following oils:

2 drops Eucalyptus
2 drops Lavender (French is best.)
2 drops Rosemary
2 drops Tea Tree
2 Tbsp. Carrier Oil

This helps me to loosen congestion, helps fight viral and bacterial infections while lifting my spirits.  Mix all of these together and use as a massage on your chest and back.

I also use a diffuser. So diffuse it or put in a bowl of hot water and breathe in the steam.

NOTE: "I use what oils I have available in my home and find any of them are helpful for me."

A Natural Suave

This suave has no petroleum products
fragrances or food color which may cause allergies in some people.
My Opinion:"These healing ingredients have proven to us to be far superior to other prescription and over the counter Suave for skin problems."

"Dry skin and fungus conditions were cleared up quickly and the cost is minimal in comparison to numerous other medications we used.
Personal care products made of natural plants and herbs give a high level of helpful nutrients to the skin. They nourish, replenish, and rejuvenate. By contrast, synthetic personal care products give no nourishment, and often contain ingredients that are known or suspected carcinogens, such as artificial colors and formaldehyde.

Try Beeswax Balm

Combine the above ingredients in the top of a double boiler & mix together after melting beeswax.
Once mixed, remove from heat & allow to cool.

When adding essential oils, wait until the oils have cooled somewhat, so they don't evaporate away quickly.

Stir them in completely & pour into a sterile or very clean colored glass jar. Brown or blue.
Cap tightly & label contents.

I used 50 drops of Melaluca Oil,
20 Thieves,
10 drops of Purification,
15 Peppermint.

My husband, Del, doctored for 3 years with a devastating skin problem on his hands. Bleeding and open skin sores, hundreds of bandages. Dozens (over 36) different medications and cream.
Along with this suave, I made a lotion with Cornhusker's hand lotion which is made with lanolin.  I crushed Ibuprofen and added it to the Lotion.

Suave was applied several times a day. Lotion and Latex Free Gloves were worn at night for a week.
