Cold Relief Herbal Soak
Use the following combinations of herbs for the fighting off a cold:
4 parts dried lavender
4 parts dried rosemary
4 parts chopped fresh ginger root or 2 parts ginger powder
2 parts dried eucalyptus
Use 1/2 cup of dried herbs or one to two cups of fresh herbs. Crush the herbs first to release their essential oils. Mix the herbs and tie them into a square of muslin. Hang the bag under the faucet as you fill the tub. The bag can be used to scrub your skin as well.
"Letting go of our suffering is the hardest work we will ever do. It is also the most fruitful. To heal means to meet ourselves in a new way -- in the newness of each moment where all is possible and nothing is limited to the old."
Stephen Levine
In 1972, a group of scientists reported that you could cure the common cold by freezing the big toe. I think I'll pass on this remedy. LOL.
