New Worlds of Body, Mind & Spirit Since 1901
| Color of the day: Orange
Incense of the day: Sage A few years ago my husband got badly sunburned while working outside. This bath not only worked wonders on the pain, but also on the burn itself. Use equal amounts of chamomile, crushed juniper berries, lavender, rose petals, and witch hazel to make an infusion. Pour the liquid into a cool bath and add one-half cup of finely ground oatmeal. The contents of a packet of commercial oatmeal bath would also work. Have the injured party soak for about a half hour and then finish using a moisturizing lotion containing aloe vera. |
