For colds, drink chamomile or sage tea.

For strength, eat thyme with your meal. For easing sadness, sleep on a pillow stuffed with thyme.

For staying young, smell rosemary frequently. ;)
For attracting money, carry basil in your pockets.
For indigestion, chew parsley.

    I think your site is fabulous. I think we’d be great friends if we met in person – kindred spirits : )
    I look forward to visiting often and using so many of your wonderful ideas.

    basil ‘eh?

    So many of these do help though, scent is deeply connected with memory and emotional well-being. Peppermint is good for tummy upsets too.

    I love this. I enjoy those “olde” ideas that seem relevant and peaceful and nontoxic today.
