Guest guest Posted April 20, 2006 Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 For Sinuses INGREDIENTS: For one cup. (Remember ingredients must be fresh or they lose their potency, vitamins and minerals.) Also, if the teas cannot be found, you can substitute capsules or extracts [tinctures].) To keep herbs fresh, keep ingredients in refrigerator, after purchase. 1 heaping tsp. Sage tea (can use cooking sage), has a clean taste. Decreases secretions & excessive mucus discharges of the lungs, sinuses, throat, and all mucous membranes. Also, good as douche to alleviate yeast infections, stops night sweats, wash for wounds & skin eruptions, used as hair rinse stimulates hair growth & removes dandruff, normalizes stomach troubles, and improves memory. Dries up milk in lactating mothers. 1 heaping tsp. Mullein (can substitute with capsules), doesn't taste good. Nourishes & strengthens the lungs. Loosens & expels mucus. Use the oil for earaches. Have strong antiseptic properties. Is a painkiller & helps induce sleep. (Small quantities do not make me sleepy.) Useful in treating dropsy, sinusitis, swollen joints & to soothe inflamed kidneys. 1 heaping tsp. Red clover is sweet tasting. Helps the ingredients to start working in the body. Is a blood purifier, used as a wash for throat swelling, possesses antibiotic properties, contains coumerol a plant estrogen, increase lactation in nursing mothers. 1 heaping tsp. Elderberry flower, sweet tasting. Flowers are for colds and respiratory infections. The berries eaten raw help arthritis. Berry infusions helps colds, insomnia, migraine headaches, relieves gas and a detoxifying agent. 1 cup boiling Water & sweeten to taste. I use honey. Start out using 1 tsp. of each ingredient with approximately 1 cup of water. Boil water & pour it over the herbs - let it steep about 15 min. The longer you let it steep the stronger it will be. Then drain the tea from the herbs & be sure to press the herbs to get all of the liquid out. If your tea comes out looking like coffee then dilute it with water, until it looks like the common tea beverage. Refrigerate if you have made more than l cup. Drink 2 to 4 cups a day. Sweeten to taste (raw unrefined local honey the best). Use this for fluenza, sinus infection, allergies, colds, pneumonia, bronchitis, ECT. Neighbors, friends, family, and animals have used this tea. It has helped all of us. Remember each person is different. You may need to change the quantities of the ingredients to fit you. Radiating UNCONDITIONAL LOVE & Truth To ALL who share our circle – our universe, our love, our trust. May I always be found worthy. Gratitude & Thankfulness to All of Us a SoaringHawk Look at everything as though you were seeing it either for the first or last time. Then your time on earth will be filled with joy & glory.
