Natural Cures: HONEY LETS TALK ABOUT HONEY

HONEY LETS TALK ABOUT HONEY (Herbal Remedies)
They talk about the birds and the bees and the flowers and the trees.........but lets talk about what the bees make and how it can help us.
Honey is a great all natural sweetener! Most of us use refined sugar to sweeten our coffee, cookies, cakes and so on. Refined sugar is not good for us, most of us know this, but we use it because its cheap and widely available to us. This type of sugar can cause all sorts of bad things to our bodys, including weight gain and diabetes. If you want a healthier choice try honey, the bees have already done all the work for us. They made it, they filter out environmental toxins and we just package it. As a sweetener you want to use it sparingly though, honey is sweeter than other sugars, so you need less, also it does carry more calories than refined sugar. So you can use less and not gain the weight.
You can also use Honey for a relaxing bath, put about 2 oz of honey in with some lavender oil in with your bath, and relax and enjoy.
Honey can be used for dressing wounds and releif of hay fever, asthma, bronchitis and other respiratory ailments. Its a great household remedy!
I want to warn you of this, do not give unpasteurized honey to infants. It has a kind of bacteria that can be very dangerous to those younger than one year old!

Bee smart, honey is helpful, but Bee careful with the young ones!

Natural Cures-Make Your Home Air Pure

MAKE YOUR HOME AIR PURE
If you want your house smelling clean and fresh, most of us go out and buy those expensive air fresheners which usually conk out in the firs day or so, or they cause our allergies to flare up or they just plain don't work.
A good and natural way to make your home smell nice and purify the indoor air you breath is Lavender Oil. Lavender Oil can be used many ways for such things as skin irritations, tightening the skin around the breasts, insomnia, nerve pain, and sunburn relief, but for the air purification you would need to simply place this mixture of essential oils in a simmer pot and wait as the air is purified and the fresh scent helps to lift the mind body and spirit.
Use 4 drops of lavender oil
2 drops bergamot oil and 2 drops lemon oil
Simmer as long as you like and repeat as often as you like. Your home will be fresh smelling, and purified all naturally, and much less expensively.

Stop and smell the clean!
