RECIPE FOR SOOTHING HEADACHES WITH A LAVENDER AND MINT EYE PILLOW

HOW TO MAKE YOUR OWN LAVENDER AND MINT EYE PILLOW:

INGREDIENTS:

Flax seeds (about 1 1/2 cups)
Dried mint (about 2 tablespoons)
Dried lavender (about 3 tablespoons)
Peppermint essential oil
Lavender essential oil
(above quantities can be adjusted to suit)

Soft material, preferably cotton or silk. Enough to place across the eyes.

METHOD:

Place flax seeds, dried mint, dried lavender, a few drops of peppermint essential oil and a few drops of lavender essential oil into a mixing bowl and mix together.

Sew the sides of the material and leave an opening enough to place a funnel for pouring the above mixture into the material. Then sew the opening closed.

You do not want to make the filling to full, it should rest nice and softly on the eyes.

Flax seeds are the perfect weight for eyes and can be purchased at a health store or perhaps even the health section in your grocery store.

You can also make a pillow case for the eye pillow, this way you can wash the cover. Once the scent fades, you can simply dot a few drops of lavender onto the pillow, this will refresh it.

Now a Member - Reflexology Association of America

This is exciting! This week I've officially joined the Reflexology Association of America. Membership in a professional organization like this seemed like someone else's dream. In fact, taking the bold step out of my comfort zone and onto the path of learning and education to become a Registered Certified Reflexologist (RCR) must have been someone else's dream, as well. In fact, in all reality, I believe my personal dreams were to0 deeply buried for too many years to even know they existed. Growing up with little encouragement from the home front to consider anything else than secretary or teacher as a future, I pretty much just made good grades because that seemed like the right thing to do, and received my B.A. just because it seemed like the right thing to do. That was in Journalism. Well, I didn't wish to teach or be a secretary, and it seemed like the next most right thing to do. . . . whatever the right thing is or was. RCR, like many other endeavors in my life, ...
