snoring/sinus

[Guest guest]

Hi Moira

Lavender isn't guaranteed to stop snoring (wish it did, I'd be rich). What it

does

do, especially a lavender grown at or near sea level which would contain more

1,8

cineol and/or camphor, is clear the nasal passages and the sinuses. I suggested

lavender to Barbara because her mate has seizures (I think that was it), so

basil

and eucalyptus might not be such a good idea. To use the lavender, you could do

a

steam inhalation or even have a bath before bed. Even better though is to put a

couple of drops of lavender each side of the pillow - on the edges so you don't

actually lie on it, but it can be inhaled all night. Won't hurt the fabric.

By the way, Moira, the lavenders grown in this country are great for this, and

also

for headaches.
