A Bath To Help Varicose Veins

2 tb Dried ginger powder *OR* 4 tb Fresh gingerroot; chopped
4 tb Dried juniper
2 tb Dried rosemary
4 tb Dried lemon peel *OR* 1 Whole lemon; quartered
Although most often associated with women, bulging, enlarged veins can be a problem for both sexes. The
condition is largely hereditary, but a case of varicose veins can be made worse by had habits; standing for long
periods of time, wearing tight clothing, and sitting with the legs crossed. Hormonal fluctuations also can contribute
to varicosity.
Herbal baths can help, although you should be careful not to take baths that are too hot (extreme temperatures
can exacerbate the problem). Whole herbs that you can use in a bath to help boost circulation in the legs include
geranium, ginger, juniper, lemon, peppermint and rosemary.

A Bath For Emotional Balance

1/2 c Dried orange peel *OR* 1/2 Whole fresh orange; sliced
3 tb Dried jasmine flowers

When everything seems just a bit too overwhelming, a bath can be extremely good medicine. This season, you
might appreciate herbal remedies for feelings like nervousness, tension, anxiety or emotional fatigue. Try whole
herbs like chamomile, jasmine, juniper, lavender, orange, rose, rosemary or sandalwood.
For a bath that'll restore your sense of balance, make an infusion of the listed herbs; sit back and enjoy.
