Spring is in the air and after a long winter most of us need a little sprucing up. Here are three natural home remedies that can help get winters grip off of us and brighten us up like a spring flower!
Olive oil,bees-wax and herbs:
You can make a mixture of olive oil, bees-wax and some calming herbs such as calendula, comfrey, lavender flowers and thyme. The combination of these elements contains healing agents that can sooth irritated skin along with leaving a thin-film of moisture that wont clog pores. Here is a simple recipe.
Place the olive oil and herbs in a double boiler. Warm through till the oil takes on the herbs colors and the herbs are darkened. It may take as long as a half hour. Do not leave unattended!
Carefully pour through a strainer into a glass jar containing the bee’s wax. Stir until wax melts. Let cool. Store the jar away from light and never use your fingers to remove the salve. A great tool for getting it out is a Popsicle stick.
Calendula and comfrey are soothing herbs while lavender flowers and thyme are antiseptic.
Baking Soda Paste:
Apply a mixture of 1 tablespoon baking soda and lukewarm water making a paste like consistency. Rub on the site. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Dust with corn starch once completely dry. Adding this to your self-care list may really help if you’re suffering from this fungus.
Aspirin and lemon juice:
Take about 6 aspirin crushed into a powder then mix in 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice and water. Once it is paste like apply to your calluses, put your whole foot into a plastic bag then wrap a warm towel around it. Relax for 10 minutes. Remove the towel and plastic bag, rinse and scrub your foot gently with a pumice stone. Your callused skin should flake away easily leaving you with soft, comfortable and happy feet.
If you are allergic to aspirin or have a sensitivity do not use this on your skin.
These home remedies are just that. They are not to take the place of any doctors directives.
