Blend-A-Day: Shoo Away Winter Blues

Winter is a time for stuffy noses, aching muscles and congested chests. To combat these cold season concerns, combine in a dark-colored vial, equal parts of:

Thyme

Peppermint

Lemon

Add this to a potpourri to promote general healing in the home. If you are particularly feeling congested, use a few drops on your handkerchief or some cotton wool and inhale directly to help heal sinuses. This is also a great recipe for reducing the risk of contracting colds and flus.
