Oils & Herbs list

Sunday, May 09, 2004 12:23 PM

Hello

 

 

Hello Everyone,

I wanted to introduce myself as I am new to this list although not new to

aromatherapy, etc. I had participated on the IDMA list a few years back but got

away from Aromatherapy in general for a while. I've been studying with Caroline

Myss for the past 2 years (she opened up a school based on her book Sacred

Contracts). But I missed the world of all things herbal and aromatic! So, I

contacted Butch to place an order fro some of his wonderful Rose Otto! And he

graciously updated me on his life and told me about this list1

So, I am happy I am back. I am sure as you post I will remember some of you. And

maybe some of you will remember me. I live in the Cincinnati area and we are

awaiting the return of the Cicadas after a 17 year hiatus! :>

Since I have been away for a while I would like to ask a couple of basic

questions. How does everyone sterilize their bottles and jars for essential olis

and hydrosols?

And I have a really big and nice melissa plant. How does everyone use melissa?

Thank you for any ideas and suggestions. And thank you to Chris for having me on

this list. I am really excited to be back in the world of oils & herbs! Gloria

Welcome, my name is Kathy and I too, am from Ohio. I live half way between

Cleveland and Toledo. I wash my bottles in hot soapy water and then I air dry

them. I have been picking up used bottles at every garage sale that I can find.

Since I am just starting I don't want to spend too much money on bottles. I

have found that a crushed efferdent tablet in the bottle works wonders also.

Kathy, I guess I was looking for how people sterilize their bottles not just

clean them. The efferdent sounds interesting for cleaning.

I have been cleaning then using some Everclear to sterlize the rinse with water

and let them air dry. I was looking for a better way to do this Thanks for the

input! Gloria

Hi, Gloria.

I sterilized my bottles by boiling them for about 5 minutes, then letting

them air dry. (It sure worked well with my daughter's bottles when she was

a baby - does that date me? :-) Did that with dropper caps, too.

Love and light, Angela.

OMG! I can't believe this. I live in Monroeville. I work at Gaymont Nursing

Center in Norwalk. I couldn't believe it when Laura said she lived in

Cleveland. I just thought that there would only be people from around the

country. I enjoy reading and learning from this list. I am hoping to start up

a business. I am thinking of setting up at a small event Memorial Day weekend.

I have been trying to choose what to mix up and what will be helpful to almost

everyone.

Oh I am so grateful for such good responses! Angela, I too boiled my son's

bottles but forgot all about that! How could I forget. Maybe it was one of those

repressed memories! :> Anyway a good idea none the less.

And C-M the melissa tincture, yes I will have to do that one.

The drying rack Neysa talked about. Oh I think I could get David to make one for

me too. Ant pointers or pits falls Neysa?

It feels so good to be back talking to people so willing to help. Thanks to

everyone! Gloria

He just used a solid board for the bottom and drilled holes in it in a grid,

making sure they were far enough apart to accomodate the width of the largest

bottles and used small diameter dowels long enough for the hieght of my tallest

container.

HI Gloria,

 

I'm pretty new here myself, but welcome anyway!!

 

> How does everyone sterilize their bottles and jars for essential

> olis and hydrosols?

 

I have been using any old bottles I can get my hands on for some

bodycare products, so I have the same problem (but I even use plastic

if I like the bottle)

 

Have a look at Baby Bottle drying racks, or wine bottle drying

racks. They can be so cheap, especially as you might just find one

at a garage sale! I don't have one yet, but I am looking for one

that looks like a Christmas tree - a central dowl with lots of dowls

coming out of it.

It would probably be easy to make one's own drying rack, but you

might want to save your carpenter's energy for larger projects...!

Hi Marti,

 

I'm new here also. This is a wonderful group. I would have to say it

is the best that I have ever belonged to. So many, if not all of the members

here are so knowledgeable. I started out asking an embarrassing old broad sex

question and (so far) they haven't thrown me out. Welcome from another

Michigander who is now living in the corn fields of Indiana.

 

Kat (who is making progress with her embarrassing sex problem and who wishes

to again thank all the members who responded with suggestions)

Hi Catherine,

 

Welcome aboard :)

 

Sorry I didn't get to personally welcome you sooner. We've been sick

around here - I have had my hands full with my two little boys - and my

work- and trying to catch up from being sick - and the housework - and

also trying to keep the place from being overgrown with weeds - you

could not believe how much of a jungle it is here already in early March

- and I mean OVERGROWN, ignore it for a few days and BAM - we're talking

machete time *lol*!

Very cool! :) Remember us when you are on Oprah's " Books Oprah Loves "

List and become all famous <grinz>

 

> I need to chat with someone who knows about this activity

You've come to the right place! There are quite a few sources of info on

how the oils are produced, but the best info comes straight from the

distillers .. and yes there are a few of them on this list! We also have

a few hobby distillers who have done distilling with home stills.

 

Also we have quite a few folks who have done extensive studies on

various botanicals, wildcraft herbs, lead foraging groups, make infused

oils, etc ..

 

 

Right now, I'm trying to find information

It always takes a lot of plant matter to produce a lb of EO, but yes you

are correct, how depends on the plant and can vary greatly.

 

 

See if this helps any ..

> Also, does anyone know of any actual distillers of anything in

Hmmm, dunno if anyone here is a distiller in Minnesota .... I'm sure if

there is they'll poke their head out to say hi, but maybe some of our

other distillers might be able to at least point you in the right

direction to find out the info you need :)

Hi. My name is Dawn. You are going to love this group. I sure have so much to learn. I have to say the biggest thing that gives me energy is a short workout in the morning.If they eat an apple in the middle of the night, that will help with their energy level. I have been taking short naps, and that really helps me.Also, apple cider vinegar in a cup helps me to. I hope these ideas may help.

Herbal Remedies - Hello

Hello I am new to the group. I am an EMT-Basic and have been for almost a year now. I am very interested in not only modern medicine but also herbal remedies. I am laughed at a little by friends and co-workers but they are well humored about it. I do have a qeustion for you all though... I have a freind you works graveyard shift and runs low on energy about half-way through the night. I am very against energy pills, so I told him to try honey. It works but he doesn't really like the taste. Is there something else he can try?Federal Law requires that we warn you of the following: 1. Natural methods can sometimes backfire. 2.

Yeah, enough sleep during the day.

 

I worked nights for years. 12 hours of sleep during

the daylight hours is worth 6 hours of sleep from

10 PM to 4 AM. Working nights is hard on one's Liver

and has a big impact on eyesight.

 

Extra carbohydrates like honey will give him the feeling of extra

energy but its going to be empty and a drain his nutritional

resources. Not good.

 

What did I do when I had to work night hours?

I put myself on a schedule of at the very least 10 hours of

UNINTERUPTED sleep during the day with only good

nutrition.

No junk food period. No coffee. No soda pop.

No sugary or fatty snack foods.

 

When I got off shift and arrived home I'd do calming yoga (lots of

forward bend kind of asanas) to chill out enough to fall asleep

soundly. I had room darkening curtains on the windows and ran

a air purifier to mask outside noises.

Forward bends help kick in the parasympathetic nervous system. So do

deep abdominal breathing with more emphasis on exhales to the inhale.

 

To wake up in the evening, before having a decent dinner with my

family, I'd do waking up asanas focusing more on backbends.

 

If he's getting enough rest during the day and his nutrition is

excellent, you'd be surprised what a couple deep breaths done with

some good stretches can do to reinvigorate.

These are all excellent suggestions! I work 24 hr shifts at the fire

department. We do get some sleep time, but it is not always easy to

sleep. I have found that in the middle of the night if I am having

a really tough time, I can take a dose of EmergenC and that will

perk me up. EmergenC is available pretty much anywhere, GNC, Savon,

Etc.
