2 cups (473 ml) distilled water

1 tablespoon (15 ml) calendula (pot marigold)

2 teaspoons (10 ml) rosemary

1 tablespoon (15 ml) nettle

2 teaspoons (10 ml) orange peel

2 teaspoons (10 ml) comfrey

2 tablespoons (30 ml) chamomile

1/2 teaspoon (2.5 ml) essential oil of lavender

1 teaspoon (5 ml) jojoba oil (omit if hair is oily)

1/2 cup (118 ml) all-natural, gentle baby shampoo

 

Bring water to a boil and remove from heat. Add the herbs, cover, and allow

to steep for 30 minutes. Strain mixture into a medium-sized bowl, add the

oils and stir vigorously. Add the shampoo and gently stir until thoroughly

mixed. Pour into a labeled bottle and keep refrigerated to preserve the

freshness. You may keep a small bottle in the shower with enough shampoo for

about one week, if you wish. Use approximately 1 tablespoon (15 ml) per

application. This shampoo will not produce mountains of billowy suds as it

does not contain strong foaming agents. It cleans gently with minimal

sudsing.

Note: Before use, lightly shake shampoo to mix the oil that may separate

from the rest of the ingredients.

“Then I will tell you a great secret, Captain. Perhaps the greatest of all

time. The molecules of your body are the same molecules that make up this

station and the nebula outside, that burn inside the stars themselves. We

are starstuff, we are the universe made manifest, trying to figure itself

out. As we have both learned, sometimes the universe requires a change of

perspective. "
