Lavender Essential Oil.
a drop on temples and back of neck for headaches.
smell it for stress and rapid heart beat.
on nightclothes near nose, will help you sleep and also help with breathing problems.
on cuts, burns and insect bites.
helps stop snoring, Scott rubs it on the sole of his feet.
can be mixed with any good cooking oil, olive and almond is good, 3 to 5 drops to a tablespoon for oil, for massage or hand lotion. I love Jojoba oil.
I have to watch it, as I use it daily and it will burn if overused. but then I am allergic to the doctors medicine and drugstore meds, will fight to keep my lavender.
Try 3 to 7 drops in a warm bath.
Don't forget that if you have it on your hand or wrist, it will calm babies and animals.
If you do a search on the Internet, you will find it is used in almost every cure they think of.
Enjoy and be safe,
Ruth

Valium: chew 'em up like pez, chase with shot of bourbon.
Candy's dandy, but liquor's quicker.

Granny, you can't go away.....you have so much wisdom to share. You and I are the same age..almost. I care for my six month old grandson. Because of your advice about the lavender oil, I've been rubbing a bit of it on my left shoulder (where I put him after a bottle to burp). It really does seem to soothe him....and me.
