What if it was easy? What if it might be even better than the Watkins variety?

I'm not really sure what Id do without my multi-purpose homemade healing salve. I use it on gardening-inflicted sunburns, cuts and abrasions, on martial arts blisters, the grandsons chapped cheeks and hands, insect bites when were wilderness camping or gold panning, and the dogs scrapes and scratches. Herbal healing salves are gentle, soothing balms made from natural herbal ingredients.

Heres something everyone can do, quickly and easily, at home, with no special skills.

Generally speaking theyre safe to use on kids, pets and people. They are naturally soothing and healing. In this sample recipe, herbally infused oil is chock-full of natural healing powers.

Vitamin E oil contributes antioxidants and wound-healing abilities. Tea tree oil (Melaleuca oil) provides anti-microbial, anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties. And lavender essential oil works its magic on burns and adds soothing aromatherapy.

Basic Recipe:

1 cup herbally infused oil
1 2 oz. Beeswax
10 capsules Vitamin E Oil
tsp. each tea tree and lavender essential oils

In a small pan, gently heat the herbally infused oil and beeswax until barely melted. Cut or poke the vitamin E capsules open, and squeeze the vitamin E oil into the beeswax/oil mixture. Remove from heat, and add the essential oils. Pour a tiny amount of the salve mixture onto waxed paper or into a container to cool. Test it for thickness if youd like it to be harder, add more beeswax. If youd like it to have a thinner balm, add more oils.

When youre satisfied with the consistency, pour the balm into clean, sanitized jars and let cool. This all-purpose salve can be used for cuts, scrapes, splinters, diaper rash, burns, rashes, or for dry skin.

To make a herbally infused oil:

In a saucepan, combine dry herbs and a vegetable oil (we like extra virgin olive oil, but just about any kind will do). Specific proportions are not important use a few generous handfuls of herbs and use enough oil to cover them. Heat over lowest possible heat for several hours three minimum, we usually try for 12 or 15.

Alternatively, use a crock-pot on the low setting. Strain out the herbs and use your herbally infused oil to make balms, or as a massage oil, bath oil, or as a great winter moisturizer.

Some Herbs to try: chamomile, comfrey, plantain, St. Johns Wort, calendula.

Total Wellness: Improve Your Health by Understanding and Cooperating with Your Body's Natural Healing Systems
We have all been told to ?eat right,? ?exercise,? and ?reduce stress.? Although these clichés offer good general advice, how do they meet the specific health concerns of an individual? Each of us has unique needs for optimizing our own health. In his latest book, Total Wellness, Dr. Joseph Pizzorno teaches us how to pinpoint exactly what our bodies need to be healthy.
Written in a clear and understandable style, this book covers each of the major body systems, describing how they work, how to recognize when something is not working correctly, and how to make it work again. Pizzorno teaches the reader to listen to the body?s messages and to use lifestyle modifications and natural medicines to reestablish optimal health. Many of the diseases discussed in the book can be resolved through self-treatment techniques such as:
Take herbal bitters with meals to improve nutritional status and digestion
Eat colorful fruits and vegetables normalize inflammatory function
Use Siberian ginseng to increase DHEA levels to help the regulatory system
Regularly consume garlic and onions to boost the detoxification systems
Take Vitamin A and Beta-carotene to strengthen the immune system
Each chapter begins with a list of common symptoms that would indicate an imbalance in a particular system, as well as behaviors that increase the risk for an imbalance. The author includes case ?stories? of patients he?s treated for many of the conditions. Tips for translating the body?s messages, charts and tables explaining the conditions, and appendices directing the reader to the exact information he needs makes the book the ultimate reference for people who want to make themselves well.

2 Bottles, Dr.Lee's Diabetes Formula (100g Pure Herbal Extract Powder) Clinical Grade. Works fast. It lowers glucose level naturally by strengthening body's self healing and adjusting ability including body secretion. Unlike western medication which usually increases it's dependency, this formula makes our bodies work harder rather than spoiling body system, and also awakes body's responses with increased vitality. It improves overall health through......2 bottles, Flat Rate shipping with Extra Saving $8.00.
In Oriental Medicine, diabetes is called body fluid consuming disease which is a Yin Deficiency symptom. Typical symptoms are expressed as excessive thirst, excessive hunger, and excessive urination.

Dr. Lees Diabetes Formula helps improve overall health and prevent or reverse painful complications as well as lowering glucose level as a result.

This formula doesnt replace diabetics western medication immediately. However, by taking this formula for a certain period, most of patients experience overall improvement such as more vitality, less tiredness, less dryness and also they notice their glucose level going down significantly.

There are actual cases where patients who were newly diagnosed with diabetes took this formula for months and became free from prescription later, or they at least get reduced dosages from their MD on their next visit.

By nourishing and tonifying bodys Yin with Dr. Lees herbal formula, the ability of body secretion gets supported and boosted, and also this awakes bodys responses and increases vitality.

Most diabetics medications are designed to lower bodys glucose, not to make your bodies work to lower glucose.
When glucose level is high, instead of taking glucose lowering medication that does the work for our body, we should seek the ways that normalizes our body functioning again by utilizing our self healing system.
The more and the longer people take glucose lowering medication, our bodies just get lazier, since the medicine is doing the work for us, and we only gain temporarily controlled glucose with possible side effects like hypoglycemia.

As our bodies weaken self healing abilities, the patients require higher dosage of prescriptions as time goes by and this vicious cycle is only repeated throughout time.

Unlike western medication, Dr. Lees Formula supports and helps strengthen our self healing system to make our bodies work strongly rather than spoiling body system.
