Sinus Soup

Many of the ingredients in this tea can be easily grown by you. See the "Ultra Easy Medicinal Tea Herb Garden" page of this site for more information. This tea is great for sinus problems and congestion associated with the common cold.

Combine all the ingredients in a bowl or cauldron. Blend clockwise while focusing on an open and airy type of feeling. Say the following or similar words of power while you stir to empower the mixture:

Cleansed air after the rain;

breathe deeply, without strain.

Open skies on cloudless days,

clear my mind from the foggy haze.

Here is the ingredients list, this makes a large batch which I give to friends during cold or sinus season:

1 small handful (about 1/4 cup) dried thyme

1 small handful (about 1/4 cup) dried feverfew flowers

1 large handful (about 3/4 cup) dried peppermint leaves

1 Tablespoon dried and rubbed or crushed sage

These can be made into a tea, but for the most effective 'sinus soup' combine 1 heaping tablespoon of the herbal mixture with 2 cups of water that has been seasoned with chicken or vegetarian bouillon. Crush and then chop about 5 'toes' or pieces of fresh garlic and add them to the soup, then add about 2 teaspoons of ginger root powder or 2 slices of peeled fresh ginger root. Simmer over very low heat for about 3 minutes and serve hot. It is normal to sweat when taking this medicine, it has strong purifying and diaphoretic properties. Your nose will run for about 1/2 an hour, but should then be clear. I like to add about a teaspoon of cayenne, but a dash may be enough for most people.

“If you are discouraged it is a sign of pride, because it shows you trust in your own powers. Never bother about other people's opinions. Be humble and you will never be disturbed. Remember St. Aloysius, who said he would continue to play billiards even if he knew he was going to die. Do you play well? Sleep well? Eat well? These are duties. Nothing is small for God.”
