In fact, all of the chemically synthesized medications artificially formed in a lab are all derived from natures building blocks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But nothing beats nature itself, there\u2019s simply no substitute for it. Nature is perfect, it instinctively knows what to do and it never second guesses itself. It doesn\u2019t create mistakes and in our seemingly perfect concrete jungles that we live and work in, we\u2019ve never become so detached from nature as we are now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Look all around you. We live in an environment that wouldn\u2019t have made sense 100 years ago. So separate from our surroundings and light years away from the way our ancestors used to live that with our modern fast paced lifestyles and our even faster food, we\u2019re sicker in this generation then we\u2019ve ever been before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ve got to realize that for better health we need to live in harmony with nature because it holds the key to every cure of every disease, all we need is time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this e-book you will find the remedies to treat everyday ailments naturally and you will also get to the root cause of those symptoms to discover what\u2019s triggering those ailments in the first place for greater, holistic healing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So let\u2019s get started.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Aromatherapy For Natural Beauty And Great Looking Skin<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Egyptians have been using essential oils for millennia and can be traced back to the ancient art of embalming. Specific oils were chosen for their preservation characteristics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was also discovered that essential oils encouraged cellular regeneration which promotes healing and can have a significant effect on the tissue appearance of the skin. This is why so many opt for natural beauty treatments these days involving the use of essential oils as it naturally plumps the skin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead of botox and unnatural fillers to artificially plump the skin and fill out wrinkles, essential oils can be used to provide a natural, non-invasive alternative to minor cosmetic surgery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First off, beauty creams that claim to nourish the skin actually contain synthetic chemicals that can harm and irritate the skin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You only need to look at the ingredients in most of the brand name moisturizers to see chemical names that you can\u2019t pronounce outside of a chemistry laboratory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even most of the commercial brand skin toners on the market these days contain alcohol which can end up dehydrating and drying the surface of the skin and aging it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Creams derived from fruit and vegetable oils such as avocado, coconut and apricot are the best to use on the skin as they nourish the blood capillaries in the skin\u2019s lower dermal layers and essentially nourish the skin from the ground up. This is why opting to use natural moisturizers stimulates dermal regeneration and nourishes the skin giving a healthy, clear complexion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before embarking on a beauty regime you should always ensure that you work with a blank canvas and this means to prepare the skin for the best results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because the skin is a living organ it absorbs the nutrients you apply to it, in order to prepare the skin to properly absorb the natural moisturizers you apply, you need to slough off the dead skin cells clinging to the surface of the skin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can exfoliate the skin using a good, course oatmeal face scrub. Thoroughly rinse the skin until clean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that your skin is a clean blank slate you can work on toning and tightening your pores. You can achieve this with a home-made face sauna.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To make a special toner, add 30 drops of rose oil to 100 ml of distilled water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To cleanse your pores, simply fill a bowl with boiling hot water, add 7 drops of rose oil and carefully place your face over the bowl then place a towel over your head to concentrate the steam on your face. Do this for 10 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Add your toner you created earlier by splashing onto your face, pat dry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once the skin has finished air drying, apply face cream to lock in moisture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To create your own clay mask simply add 3 drops of peppermint oil to 30 ml of clay paste, mix thoroughly and apply. Leave to set for 20 minutes and rinse off thoroughly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To get a real deep clean you should do a face mask at least once a week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember that your skin will only look as good as the nourishment you give it. So to truly improve skin from the inside out make sure that you eat foods rich in water. Cells lacking in water get flaccid which ages skin. You can easily replenish fluids that you lose by drinking more. You know that you need to get around 8 glasses of water a day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also eat foods rich in antioxidants like fruits and vegetables. For nutrients that you might lack from your diet try taking a multi vitamin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another important point to remember is that your cells can only repair themselves with the proper rest, so ensure that you get 8 hours of rest per night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Follow these tips and you\u2019ll see an improvement in not only the quality of your complexion but also your health and energy levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How To Make Your Own Sumptuous, Natural Perfumes<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the toxic cocktail that often makes up the composition of our perfumes it pays to create your own from scratch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No matter just how &#8220;organic&#8221; or natural perfume manufacturers claim their fragrances to be often you\u2019ll find an alcohol base in there somewhere. This alcohol or &#8220;phenol&#8221; as its derived from the alcohol family and is used to give fragrances their scents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Phenols are tolerated in small doses but in larger doses can irritate and burn the eyes and the lungs. It is a neurotoxin and can affect the heart and the nervous system causing seizure and coma.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Long term exposure to phenol can affect the liver and kidneys.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You don\u2019t want that on your skin, so why not make your own perfume? After all, every celebrity and their accessorized dog is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From Britney Spears to J Lo to Paris Hilton now even Kim Kardashian has her own fragrance. These ladies know that perfume is big business and that even our emotions and yes, even a person\u2019s self-esteem can be inextricably tied to the scent you wear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don\u2019t believe me? Why do you think that people run out in droves to swoop up these famous scents? Because they believe that if they wear J Lo\u2019s &#8220;Glow&#8221; or Kim Kardashian\u2019s self-titled creation &#8220;Kim Kardashian&#8221; that perhaps a little of that star will rub off them giving them an elevated sense of self confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We are ruled by our noses, without our sense of smell we wouldn\u2019t be able to fully appreciate the flavor of our food or beverages, after all taste is 90% smell and is why we can\u2019t taste our food when we have a cold or have blocked sinuses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s unbelievable just how powerful scents and fragrances are because they have the ability to trigger memories. It\u2019s incredible that certain scents are tied to memories and experiences that even a whiff of a scent from our childhood can evoke a whole rainbow of emotions and cause them to flood back as if it were yesterday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Each smell is tied to memory and can be easily retrieved no matter how long it\u2019s been filed away in the storage recesses of our minds. This is an evolutionary survival mechanism, for example by brain-smell association we can recognize the familiar sulfurous odor of gas leaks or detect the faint hint of fire smoke and flee to safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So as you can see, smell plays a huge part in our world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The formula for making perfumes, at its core hasn\u2019t changed all that much throughout the years. The idea is to capture a feeling or a mood and translate it into a tangible scent and this is why so many fragrances on the market these days are multi-layered and contains several undertones that the fragrance is never really just one scent but rather a multitude of many.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This add interests, much like a fine wine goes far beyond just the grapes it was made with but takes into consideration the soil conditions and composition, its acidity, the amount of sunlight and water the grapes had while they grew, when they were harvested, what components were added to it while it fermented, right down to the type of wood the wine was barrelled in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Everything contributes to the overall taste and every factor that went into its creation can be detected in layers. Upon sampling, you might initially experience the tart taste of the wine but over a few seconds go on to detect the oak layers coming through from the barrel itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These days, fragrance creation is treated along similar lines to wine creation and is very rarely made from one thing only. Having several layers makes the fragrance more distinct and more difficult to duplicate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Paris Hilton casually dismissed her perfume creation skills as nothing more than throwing in a little of this and that into the mix but you can almost guarantee that her perfume was no accident but carried out methodically and heavily scrutinized until the winning combination was created.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So today, you\u2019re going to get to do what J Lo and Beyonce have done and concoct your own perfume creations. The best part is with essences and oils that your creations will be made from all natural ingredients and that you can infuse your own signature and personality into it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The great thing about using natural essences for your perfumes is that they tend to be more three dimensional in scope and full bodied (remember our wine example earlier?) Another perk for going the natural route is that essential oils are more hypo-allergenic and have fewer tendencies to flare up skin reactions or headaches as some other concentrated, alcohol based perfumes can.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most perfumes on the market contain hundreds of different components and can be quite an arduous task to create but the great thing about using oils is that you can use just a handful of them to achieve the same result. This is because is each is a complex being and is made up of hundreds of different natural components. Many scents derived from nature are difficult to duplicate artificially because they are constructed from hundreds of different ingredients found only in nature. So why re-invent the wheel when nature\u2019s done such a great job already?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These are the 4 main families from which all fragrances are derived. The more complex a fragrance, the more cross pollinating between the elements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Earth (Natural) <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Spicy<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Earthy<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Woody<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Wind (Enlivened) <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Musky, Oriental, Honey <strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Fire (Passionate) <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Floral, Fruity, Citrus, Lemon<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Water (Invigorated) <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Green, Herbaceous, Healing<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Perfume Recipe <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To get the right fragrance combination for you will take lots of testing, tweaking and mixing. Don\u2019t forget to take note of your combinations so that when you do hit the right note, you\u2019ll remember what you used as well as the quantities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Start with a few essential oils and over time; expand your collection for greater variety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You might want to begin with the basics of sandalwood, mace, patchouli, rosewood, jasmine. Mix one at a time so that you have control over the scent and can fine tune it drop by drop. Think of it as making a stew, you don\u2019t dump in all of the seasoning at once but rather add it in gradually until you get the right taste. It\u2019s always easier to add more if it needs an extra kick than it is to tone it down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So go into making your own perfumes with that attitude. Layer your scents gradually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Take your main essential oil this can be sandalwood, rosewood, patchouli, etc and add it to 1 teaspoon of fractionated coconut oil in a small glass bottle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The coconut oil acts as a &#8220;carrier&#8221; and the reason why it needs to be fractionated is so that it remains a liquid at room temperature so it can be mixed with other oils. Regular natural coconut oil is solid at room temperature is not suitable for creating perfumes with. You need carrier oils to tone down the potency of essential oils as full strength oils may in some sensitive individuals cause irritation when applied directly to the skin in their concentrated form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don\u2019t forget to write down how many drops of your main essential oil you added. You may want to start with 3 drops, shake the ingredients until mixed and then sample the resulting scent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Again, as with our stew example, add drops gradually. So take your time and test and don\u2019t be afraid to mix all varieties of essential oils for your own signature scent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Seal the bottle and store in a dry, cool place. Like a fine wine the scent will mature over time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>More about combining oils <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Working with the main 4 elemental families is like working with the base primary colors red, yellow and blue, for instance, mixing red and yellow creates the new color orange. You can make several different scents by combining these 4 elements and go on to further create additional scents by combining your newly formed creations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Blends from the 4 elements work well together as each type balances harmoniously with the other. This means that you can take an oil from 3 or 4 of the elements and combine them together. The interesting thing about combining oils is that once you mix them together, the chemical bonds between them break and reform new ones bringing newly formed scents with them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Natural Hair Care Treatments<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your hair is your crowning glory it\u2019s just a pity that what we put into it can leave it dry and dull and even brittle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are some effective hair remedies that will infuse some much needed bounce and shine back into dull and lifeless hair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>For Greasy Hair <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s incredible to think that your hair can reveal a lot about the person it belongs to, for instance with modern day science you\u2019re able to identify what kind of diet a person exists on along with the types of metals and elements that are present inside the body and the level and toxicity, all this revealed from a single strand of hair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Greasy hair is the product of overactive sebaceous glands that reside on the scalp. In commercial hair care products and shampoos are harsh detergents that strip the hair of its natural oils, the sebaceous glands over compensate for this lack of oil by kicking oil production into overtime hence the reason why you get oily, greasy hair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You really are what you eat, just as a lot can be revealed about a person through their hair, the same also applies with the foods you eat. Even what you put into your body is manifested through your pores and your hair follicles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So for instance if you eat a diet high in junk food, greasy chips, foods with high fat content, it will have an effect on the amount of oils produced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The best way to combat the greasy hair condition is to, like everything we\u2019ve talked about here, begin working from the inside out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By beginning with proper nutrition you will start to see an improvement in the look and texture of your hair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So start off by cutting back on the amount of fat content you consume on a daily basis, start incorporating more vitamins like vitamin B, C and F into your diet and get your fatty oils from a diet of fish. These fats are good for the heart and contain health promoting omega-3 fatty acids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By making these dietary changes you should see an improvement in the amount of oil you produce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to shampoo, try opting for the variety that has a more neutral pH, the pH that is closest to water to preserve the hairs special protective outer layer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Take your pH balanced shampoo and add to it 3 drops of rosemary to every 5 ml of shampoo. Try not to shampoo too frequently, spacing it out to every 3 to 4 days is ideal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For your natural alternative to conditioner add 11 drops of rosemary and lavender to 25 ml of sunflower seed oil, add liberally and massage into the scalp. Bundle the hair up in a towel and leave in for 30 minutes. Before rinsing, apply your shampoo to help remove the oily conditioner treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Dry Hair <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With hair straightening and blow drying not to mention harsh environmental conditions it\u2019s no wonder our hair looks frazzled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You know what I mean, no matter how much you condition, gel or mousse you butter on, your hair still has little escapees in the from of stray fly away\u2019s. Guaranteed to ruin the perfect outfit you spent hours getting ready for or the photo you spent hours preparing for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So if you\u2019re sick and tired of wrestling with stray hairs that stand to attention and you know that cutting them off is only dealing with the now rather than getting to the (pardon the pun) root of the problem then you need some serious frizz control treatment outside of a V05 hot oil commercial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So here it is, your secret anti-frizz remedy, and best of all, it\u2019s completely natural too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Opt for gentle pH-balanced shampoos that don\u2019t dry or strip the hair of its natural oils.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Add 3 drops each of lavender and chamomile to every 5 ml of your pH balanced shampoo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My grandmother swears by this, long before they had store bought conditioner from the likes of Pantene or Tresemm\u2019e, my grandmother used castor oil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019re going to put a unique spin on my grannie\u2019s old classic and add some extras to make it more sumptuous and smell less, castor oil-like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Add 11 drops of chamomile and lavender with 25 ml of castor oil OR extra virgin olive oil, apply generously and gently massage throughout the hair, paying special attention the length of the hair shaft and the tips where hair is at its driest and most vulnerable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wrap the hair in a towel and leave for 30 minutes, for deep treatment, leave in for an hour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Add in shampoo after leaving in for 30 minutes and work into a lather before rinsing clear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wash the hair every 3 days to maintain the natural oils and to keep the frizz at bay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Dandruff <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nobody likes it when dandruff spoils the look of your new black sweater or jacket. If you\u2019ve been suffering with dandruff I\u2019m sure you know all too well the annoying dusting off your shoulders from your friends and family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019ve tried commercial treatment products that don\u2019t seem to get the job done, there are natural alternatives you can try.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Again, unlike the chemically manufactured, store bought variety, natural remedies always aim to get at the heart of the dandruff and works from the root cause.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dandruff usually indicates a mineral deficiency or a food allergy of some kind. Try adding to your diet vitamin E and evening primrose oil capsules.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are a couple of simple, yet effective treatments to help alleviate the symptoms of dandruff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For a deep treatment add 20 drops of tea tree oil and 6 drops of lemongrass oil to 50 ml of coconut oil. Massage thoroughly paying special attention to the scalp area. Leave in for at least 30 to 40 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before rinsing add 5 drops of tea tree oil to every 5 drops of pH balanced shampoo. Work into a lather and rinse thoroughly until water runs clear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Do this once a week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During washes throughout the week, simply massage 4 to 5 drops of tea tree oil throughout the scalp and leave it in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You should see a noticeable reduction in the amount of dandruff within two to three weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Natural Cosmetics<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you managed to get your free report you would have discovered the amount of toxins that we apply on our skins daily from moisturizers to hair products to cosmetics, in fact there hundreds of banned chemicals that are still finding their way into the products we use each day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately government regulation is not as strict as the United Kingdom so are still prevalent in the products we entrust our skin, our health and our lives with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because the products we use still contain these toxins that have been banned in other countries it essentially makes us one huge chemical experiment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are going to purchase over the counter cosmetics just make sure that you check them out first. Nothing can substitute a little due diligence and just because your country may not have a ban on these types of chemicals does not make them safe to use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The best way to see if your cosmetics contain chemicals from the hot list is to visit this site <\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.natural-skincare-authority.com\/cosmetic-chemicals.html\"><strong><em><u><strong><em>here<\/em><\/strong><\/u><\/em><\/strong><\/a>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some cosmetics are lead based because of its ability to last particularly with regards to color stay lipsticks. The lead gives the lipstick the greater ability to adhere to the lips for longer. You\u2019re better off selecting lipsticks that aren\u2019t designed for long wearing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember that not only does the skin absorb the lipstick when it comes into contact with the lips but that when eating or drinking you also consume small quantities of it. In fact it\u2019s estimated that throughout a woman\u2019s lifetime that she will consume around 7 pounds of lipstick inadvertently through eating and drinking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So with that in perspective, you would want to ensure that the lipstick that does find its way into your body won\u2019t be harmful to your health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The side effects of lead has been linked to brain function impairment and learning disabilities. In addition to this it also affects the nervous system and is therefore classified as a neurotoxin. Because in the body lead resembles the structure of calcium it\u2019s very readily absorbed and transported throughout the bloodstream and distributed to the organs causing damage. Even low levels of lead poisoning can cause kidney and liver damage, fertility issues, damage to the central nervous system, seizures, coma and death.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With these potential side effects it pays to go as organic as possible with your cosmetics. Your health shop should have a decent array of organic brands for you to choose from.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you wanted to make your own health shops provide the means.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are a few great home-made, organic recipes to make your own cosmetic creations from.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Beetroot Red Lipstick <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s right instead of crushing and adding iron to give your lipstick pigment, we\u2019re going to use something that isn\u2019t toxic and that you can eat any day of the week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Recipe: <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Add 1 tablespoon of grated beeswax from your local health store to 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Place in a microwavable glass dish and microwave on high for 2 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then add 1 teaspoon of beet juice to the oily mixture. Mix thoroughly. Depending upon your taste, you can add more beet juice if you want a deeper, richer red color.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After mixing, let the mixture cool until it reaches room temperature then transfer the mixture to a small plastic container and either apply using your finger or use a lipstick application brush and there you have it, non-toxic, completely organic, lead free lipstick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You have the flexibility to create different colors and tones by simply controlling the amount of beet juice that you add. Little beet juice gives a pink coloration. More beet juice gives the overall lipstick color a deep, rich red color.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Foundation\/Concealer <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember as with anything, even natural organic cosmetics can have the ability to cause allergic reactions in some individuals. So always perform a patch test on your skin first and leave on for an hour to gauge if an allergic reaction is developing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is usually a good indicator if you\u2019re allergic or not. There will be some minor cases where an allergy can develop hours or even days later so be watchful to see if a delayed allergic reaction develops after the initial hour time period. If symptoms persist, see your doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Recipe: <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First off we need to create our foundation\/concealer mixture because it will also double up as the basis for our eye shadow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Combine together an equal mixture of the following, 3 tablespoons of potato starch and 3 tablespoons of corn starch. If the mixture is lumpy, grind with the back of your tablespoon until fine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To add some natural warm tones to your concealer, take 1 tablespoon of your foundation\/concealer mixture that you just created and add a sprinkling of cinnamon until you get the desired tone for your skin color. Cinnamon is great for the skin, has healing properties and gives a beautiful natural scent without the use of harsh chemicals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Eye Shadow <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Combine 3 tablespoons of cocoa powder, any kind will do with 2 pinches of your home made concealer (untinted). By combining cocoa with your concealer mixture not only do you have color but your pre-made concealer mixture gives the eye shadow adhesion properties. The cocoa gives a natural looking warm tone to the eye shadow, if you want to add a little color you can purchase dry powder food coloring from your local cake shop. It\u2019s natural and its pigmentation is derived from plant extracts so you know it\u2019s beneficial to the skin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Special Note: <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Avoid the use of artificial food coloring both in your baking and on your skin, they are derived from tar and petrochemicals. In fact artificial food coloring has been linked to ADHD and behavioral problems in children. There is also a potential link between artificial food coloring and brain tumors. So if at all possible, try opting for the natural variety in future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Add the colored powder to your eye shadow mixture until you get the level of color desired. This is where you can depart from your standard nude warm tones and branch out into your blues, greens and purples.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The great thing about using powdered food coloring is that one little pot can least years. That means that you won\u2019t have to purchase new eye shadow for the foreseeable future, just blend and mix what you already have and experiment until you get the colors you want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Blush And Lip Gloss <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To make the basis of your lip gloss add 2 tablespoons of sunflower oil to 1 tablespoon of beeswax beads, again you should be able to source any of these ingredients from your local health shop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Place in a small cooking pot and heat until both have melted and combined together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Add in a little pinch of beet powder for coloring, the more beet powder the darker and richer the color. Control the amount you put in until you get the desired color. If you want to save time, make 5 of these mixtures and add from a pinch in the first mixture and add a little more to the second batch until by the time you reach the final batch you\u2019ve added a teaspoon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That way you have 5 lip glosses with different shades from pink all the way to red. It saves time when you\u2019re in a hurry and you\u2019re looking for that perfect shade to go with your outfit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For blush, just dab a little on the apple of each cheek and blend. Use more to highlight the cheekbones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So there you have it, natural cosmetics without all of the harsh lead based chemicals found in store bought brand varieties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can also get your friends making their own cosmetics by having a natural cosmetic party. It\u2019s fun and you get to go home with cosmetics you made with your own hands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Natural Household Cleaners<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The toxicity that household cleaners introduce into our homes goes far beyond the usual &#8220;harmful if swallowed&#8221; warning. In fact you don\u2019t need to consume household cleaners for them to poison you, your skin does a perfectly efficient job of doing that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In fact, you can still be poisoned from the vapors of chemical cleaners and from being in contact with them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The skin itself, being the largest organ of the body presents all kinds of opportunities for contact with toxic chemicals which can then enter into the bloodstream and affect your internal organs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some household cleaners can adversely affect your nervous system, damage the liver and the kidneys and impair your fertility, just to highlight a few side effects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So if the toxins you come into contact with each day can affect your health without having to be swallowed then it pays to look at more natural alternatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are fantastic green\/eco brands of household cleaning products you can invest in these days, but if you want to create your own, there are several effective cleaning recipes that get the job done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cinnamon Scented Disinfectant <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>10 drops of an emulsifier (grab this from your local health shop)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>10 drops of cinnamon essential oil (can also be sourced from your health shop)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1 cup of water<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Place the essential cinnamon oil in a bottle, add the emulsifier and the cup of water. Shake thoroughly before use to mix the ingredients, scale up the mixture amounts depending upon your needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This disinfectant can be used in place of your regular household ones and it leaves a natural, refreshing cinnamon scent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Sanitizing Deodorizer <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Add 1\/2 (half) a cup of borax to 1 gallon (4 liters) of tepid warm water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Can be used in place of your household cleaners and is just as effective as industrial strength brands without the potential harm to your health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Tea Tree Oil Disinfectant <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>10 drops of tea tree oil (found at your local health shop)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>10 drops of emulsifier<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1 cup of water<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Add all of the ingredients together and mix thoroughly before use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This recipe is almost identical to the cinnamon disinfectant recipe just substitute the cinnamon essential oil with tea tree essential oil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These are cost effective, they last and are more friendly to your health and the health of the environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Aromatherapy Remedies For Health And Wellbeing<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The skin is the largest organ of the body, it\u2019s also the first thing people see and one of the first thing\u2019s people base their impressions on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Why do you think that celebrities shell out thousands of dollars to fix problem skin issues? Because their looks are their assets, so important is great looking, vibrant flawless skin that they\u2019ll go to extreme lengths to get it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019m here to tell you today that you don\u2019t have to part with a fortune to get healthy, great looking skin. You can do it from the comfort and privacy of your own home and best of all, it\u2019s completely natural.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Dehydrated, Aging Skin <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether we like it or not, aging is a part of life. It\u2019s the name given to a process that involves the degeneration of our cells. When this takes place, the process of cell division slows and our outer layer of skin or the epidermis becomes thin and loses its youthful appearance. Wrinkles appear when the skin thins and loses it tonality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to natural aging there are other contributing factors that you need to be mindful of in order to slow the aging process. Things such as air conditioning, the sun, diet, stress, smoking, drugs and medication can all play a part in how quickly you age.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With our fast paced lifestyles, change in environmental conditions and intensifying radiation doses from the sun it\u2019s no wonder our skin is looking worse for wear long before our time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You don\u2019t have to tolerate rapidly aging skin and there is something you can do about it without botox or going under the knife to shave off a few years here and there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First off, the effects of aging is a microscopic process that occurs at the cellular level. Far smaller than the eye can detect. These tiny degenerative cellular changes that take place over time ends up turning into major changes detected as wrinkled, sagging skin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>See I believe that in order to truly turn back the clock on aging skin you need to attack at the point of change, which again is at the cellular level and to do that we need to nourish the skin from the foundation up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Up Your Fluid Intake <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although it may seem like a no-brainer, the best place to start is with drinking more fluids. Everyone thinks they drink at least 6 to 8 glasses of water a day, but without proper monitoring you\u2019ll find that on average, a lot of people don\u2019t. Try to drink at least 6 glasses a day of actual water, preferably room temperature, unchilled. Not beverages, alcohol, fruit juices, teas or coffee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These may contain fluid however the body has to separate out the fluids in order to use them. If on the other hand you drink regular water the body can immediately absorb it into cells and utilize it right away without having to separate out the other elements. Drinking room temperature water instead of chilled means that the body doesn\u2019t have to expend extra energy warming the water in order to utilize it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Drinking more fluids keeps your cells functioning properly and keeps them supple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What You Eat <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Getting a balanced diet also helps to slow the oxidation and cell degenerative process. Foods that fight free radicals such as fresh fruits and vegetables, foods high in water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Here are a few aromatherapy treatments to help keep aging at bay: <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember that you should be able to source any of these ingredients at your local health store.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To target those areas that age hits the hardest, apply a little rose hip seed oil or alternatively you can use wheat germ oil to the area under the eyes before going to bed. Leave it on all night and then cleanse your face in the morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To lessen the appearance of wrinkles, create your own home made wrinkle busting face mask.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can create yours by adding 4 drops of frankincense, 4 drops of carrot seed and 4 drops of lavender oil to 2 tablespoons of clay, 2 teaspoons of liquid honey and 1 teaspoon of water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Combine until well mixed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Apply liberally over the face and leave on for 30 minutes. While you wait cut cucumbers and place over each eye. This not only soothes your eyes but helps you relax.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cracked skin <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cracked skin can often be painful especially in areas exposed to the elements such as the mouth. Cracks can also appear on the heels of the feet and hands and if left unattended can lead to infection and in those with diabetes, complications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cracked skin usually indicates a deficiency in vitamin\u2019s B2 and B6, thankfully you can infuse these vitamins naturally back into your body with diet. Believe it or not, liver is actually is a great source high in vitamin B. If liver\u2019s not your thing and you can\u2019t stand the taste then you can substitute it with wheatgerm and even brewer\u2019s yeast. You shouldn\u2019t have any problems sourcing this from your local health shop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that you\u2019re replacing the vitamins your body needs, you want to give your cracked skin some relief, wheatgerm oil is ideal for this or alternatively, if you\u2019ve got it in your kitchen pantry snap up a bottle Extra Virgin Olive Oil, anything that can act as a natural lubricant to re-infuse some that lost moisture will work well. The oil acts as a protective barrier to prevent further moisture loss and allow healing to take place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A good bottle of EVOO works wonders and keeps skin supple, hydrated and reduces wrinkles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember, during times of extreme cold to moisturize paying special attention to the neglected areas such as the hands and feet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Warts <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gone are the days where the only treatments were out of a chemical jar or used burning liquid nitrogen. Warts can be stubborn but with a good natural treatment can become yesterday\u2019s news.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Warts are derived from the papilloma virus and because of this can be contagious and spread to other parts of the body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the exception of anal and genital warts are mostly harmless however in terms of verruca\u2019s can be uncomfortable and sometimes painful to live with which is why people prefer to get rid of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With warts you\u2019ll usually find a visible center containing little black spots which look like finely ground pepper sprinkles. These are the seeds responsible for keeping the wart alive and if you\u2019re to have any long term success of ridding yourself of warts permanently, you really need to attack these growth centers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is easy to do, but first you need to weaken the rough, fleshy wart exterior which protects these seeds. To break down the warty protective skin layer you need to soften it with tea tree oil by applying a few drops to the area 3 times daily for the next 30 days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This callously exterior layer should soften and easily pull away enough for you to remove the seeds to prevent further growth and spreading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you can see the black pepper dot seeds underneath the upper wart skin layer, sterilize a needle with antiseptic and gently dig out the seeds making sure to carefully dispose of them into a tissue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Again with the exception of genital and anal warts, this treatment can be used for any wart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After every treatment, cover with a band aid or plaster to keep the area sterile. After complete removal of the wart you shouldn\u2019t be able to see any more black pepper spots and the area should no longer be as sensitive as it was to the touch, this means that you\u2019ve successfully removed the wart at the root.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over time, the skin will grow back, wart free. If you want to remain wart free, build up your immunity. Like any virus it manages to thrive when our resistance is low. In order to deter the wart virus from taking hold, increase your immunity by dosing it up on foods rich in garlic. If you don\u2019t want to eat enough garlic to keep the vampires away with your garlic breath, there is garlic available in pill form that still packs a punch, minus the scary breath.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another connection scientists have made is that Vitamin E suppresses wart formation. Source out at your local health shop moisturizing creams containing vitamin E, this should give you a nice protective layer against those nasty little wart viruses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Note: <\/strong>if you do have genital or anal warts, please see your doctor, these could be symptoms of something more serious and it\u2019s worth getting checked out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Psoriasis <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Psoriasis can be devastating in its severity ranging from raised, reddened skin to circular lesions to all the way to other end of the spectrum with pustules. It\u2019s believed that psoriasis is caused by an overactive production of epidermal cells, although not clear what triggers them is thought to be brought on by stress and allergies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A great treatment for psoriasis is internal. By taking 6 doses of 500mg of Evening Primose Oil on a daily basis, 60% of people noticed a marked reduction in their symptoms. A topical treatment you can use to give relief is to mix 5 teaspoons of cider vinegar with 3 fluid ounces of lavender water, 10 drops of lavender cajeput and tea tree oil. Once combined, shake the mixture well and massage gently into your scalp 5 times per week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This should help give relief to the discomfort of psoriasis as well as reduce the symptoms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cold sores <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nobody likes a cold sore especially when it\u2019s so prominently positioned on your lips that often it\u2019s all people can see when they look at you. If you\u2019re like me you\u2019d rather ditch yours quickly so that you\u2019re not left feeling self conscious.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A fantastic rapid acting remedy is to nip it in the bud. You\u2019ve seen those tv commercials about treating the cold sore when you experience the characteristic &#8220;tingling&#8221; sensation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The same applies here but rather than to use an over the counter medication with artificially synthesized chemicals try using tea tree oil instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just dab a little onto the affected with a q-tip (cotton bud) and dispose of it in the trash. Remember that cold sores are a contagious virus of the Herpes family. By not disposing carefully of your q-tips or washing your hands thoroughly can potentially spread it to other parts of your body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Repeat your tea tree oil treatment twice a day until the tingling sensation has disappeared and when the cold sore fails to develop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So next time you get that tingling sensation, whip out your trusty tea tree oil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cold sores don\u2019t just appear without cause. They\u2019re usually a sign of a compromised immune system and can appear during illness or times of high stress. Your best treatment is preventative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To stop cold sores from appearing, boost your immune system by taking vitamin supplements. Vitamin C can either be introduced naturally through diet, kiwifruit especially of the golden variety are a fantastic source of vitamin C and contain up to 3 times that of your average joe orange, weight to weight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s right, your regular sized orange only packs around 70 mg of vitamin C compared with 85 mg for one small golden kiwi. That means that you can eat just 2 golden kiwis to get your daily recommended dose of vitamin C a day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don\u2019t forget to get plenty of rest so that your body can repair itself and try not to stress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By resting, de-stressing and getting plenty of vitamin C you can prevent cold sores from ever appearing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Burns <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No natural first aid kit would be complete without having a knowledge in burn remedies. It\u2019s only a matter of time before it happens to us or someone around us and the knowledge that you gain here could be vital in giving much needed relief.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First of all when it comes to severe burns, please get immediate professional attention from a medical practitioner. The help you get immediately following a burn will diminish the long term effects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Burns fall into 3 categories of severity. <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Superficial: <\/strong>This involves some swelling and redness to the affected area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Intermediate: <\/strong>Usually involves swelling the affected area accompanied by blistering of the skin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Deep: <\/strong>Involves charring to the affected area often followed by a numbing feeling indicating tissue damage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For burns in general, dose up on your garlic intake. Garlic is packed with healing properties. You can incorporate garlic naturally into your diet or if you\u2019re not keen on the taste, invest in some tasteless, odorless garlic capsules from your handy local health shop, it still packs a vitamin punch minus the garlic breath.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Treatment: <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first thing you should always do following a burn is to hold the affected area under a cold tap of running water for at least 15 minutes or more if need be. Apply tea tree oil to the affected area 3 times a day until the skin has fully healed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For larger burn areas, apply a compress containing ice for 20 to 30 minutes or as long as need be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Create a special mixture by combining 9 drops of lavender and 9 drops of German chamomile oil in 50 ml of distilled water. Combine the ingredients by shaking well and apply to the burn area. Continue to use until fully healed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Essential oils are effective in the treatment of minor burns especially tea tree and lavender oils. They not only sooth the burned area but also help promote healing and prevent scarring. So effective are these oils that their use is being deployed more and more in hospitals for the treatment of burns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cuts <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Note: If your wound is particularly deep and you\u2019re experiencing severe blood loss, please seek immediate medical attention. You many need stitches and is beyond the scope of this book. <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some of the most common injuries we sustain in life are cuts. When it comes to nails, wooden splinters or rust, special care should be taken to prevent infection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to rapid healing, vitamin C is highly effective accompanied with plenty of rest enabling the body to properly repair itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Eat foods loaded with vitamin C, a great source as mentioned previously is that of the golden kiwifruit. For its weight it packs a vitamin punch compared to its bigger, bulky fruity counterparts. That means that you can get more of your recommended daily intake from its snack sized portions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Again, garlic is the &#8220;go to&#8221; healing elixir which helps boost the body\u2019s natural immune defenses and reduce infection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to minor cuts and abrasions, as with burns, lavender is excellent because of its healing properties. In fact when applied to an affected area, lavender didn\u2019t sting to the touch as iodine does. Lavender promotes healing by stimulating a supply of blood to the damaged area. Not only does lavender help heal but it also prevents scarring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tea tree oil is another great natural antiseptic which draws infection from wounds and with its germicidal properties left affected areas clean and infection free unlike most commercial, chemically synthesized antiseptics which kills the bacteria and damages the tissue in the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So as you can see, nothing beats natural. Everything grown naturally that is available to us works in synch with our bodies to heal from the inside out, that\u2019s why it\u2019s so important to get back to basics and get our bodies back into harmony the way they were supposed to be. If we lived the way nature intended, there would be a lot less illness in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Treatment: <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Clean the affected wound area with water and apply 3 to 4 drops of lavender or tea tree oils. Apply a plaster taking the care to air the wound several times a day so that it doesn\u2019t become a breeding ground for bacteria. Apply the lavender or tea tea oil 3 times a day until healed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For larger wound areas cover with gauze that has been dipped in tea tree or lavender oil. For wound seepage, add a a few drops of yarrow or myrrh to the gauze, this will help promote healing. <strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Excess perspiration <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The skin is the largest organ of the body and facilitates several functions on a daily basis from temperature regulation to acting as a protective barrier shielding us from disease and radiation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As part of the skins role in temperature control, a familiar by-product is sweat. By its nature, sweat does not smell, it\u2019s not until its attacked by bacteria which perform a sneaky little biochemical trick which essentially changes its chemical structure breaking it down into the odorous lactic acid. These is the smell that we\u2019ve all grown to hate and why we spend dollars upon dollars on products to mask it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Store bought deodorants work by clogging the sweat glands inhibiting the amount of perspiration given off and while we may smell better is not natural condition. The sweat glands were intended to work, they work to remove toxins and impurities from your system, a type of drainage point for your lymph nodes. In order to keep your body functioning normally, these lymph ducts need to drain and by blocking them with off the shelf brand deodorants is inhibiting them from working properly encouraging toxic build up in your glands which can potentially affect your health in the future. Deodorants shouldn\u2019t inhibit normal lymph drainage and to do so means that you could run into all sorts of problems, health-wise in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s an effective way to treat perspiration without affecting your health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First off, one of the simplest things that people tend to overlook is your internal health and by doing something as simple as drinking more water, you can dilute the amount of ammonia in your system that comes from a diet high in protein. You\u2019ll find doing this will reduce the strength in urine odor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wash your body regularly to remove the bacteria responsible for transforming your innocent perspiration into stenchy lactic acid. Use natural organic soaps containing tea tree oil which acts as a natural bactericide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Be aware of the kinds of clothing you wear, for instance try to avoid wearing man made, synthetic fabrics such as polyester or nylon, these prevent the skin from aerating and breathing and promote the build-up of those offensive lactic acid producing little nasties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Here are some great remedies to help you ditch your body odor: <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>For the Feet <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Add 5 drops of lavender and tea tree oil along with 1 tablespoon of coder vinegar to a bowl of warm water. Soak your feet each evening for at least 5 minutes. If you want extra soothing for tired aching feet add a few drops of lemon oil to the mix.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Natural Deodorant <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Add a 3 drops to of tea tree oil to witch hazel and rub liberally into the soles of the feet. It\u2019s also a great use as natural deodorant for the under arms too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Lice <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lice is a fact of life, no matter how clean your personal hygiene lice will always manage to find their way into your hair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to wash that lice right out of your hair, here are a couple of things that you can do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Start off by investing a fine toothed lice comb. Lice are often the size of a pin head and are hard to spot so using a fine toothed comb will help to physically remove them from the hair shaft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rather than to use toxic commercial lice products you can easily substitute them with essential oils.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Special note: <\/strong>Essential oils cannot kill the lice eggs, only the lice. You must therefore be vigilant in treating your hair every 2 to 3 days if you are to naturally rid yourself of lice. You may not be able to kill the eggs (nits) but treating regularly ensures the lice that do hatch, die.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Natural remedies not only ensure that you rid yourself of lice but it also leaves your hair in better condition before treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you or your family have contracted lice, switch to a tea tree oil or lavender oil based shampoo. This should minimize contamination between household members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Treatment: <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Between combing on a daily basis to remove the eggs, treat your hair by using a mixture of 1 to 3% of tea tree oil or lavender to a pH balanced shampoo from your local health shop. Massage thoroughly into the scalp and leave for 15 minutes before adding a few drops of lavender oil, lathering and rinsing completely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You must continue this treatment until no more eggs are lodged in the lice comb and until you see no more evidence of lice still lingering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Muscular Pain<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Often we only ever realize the presence of our muscles when we over exert them and experience pain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Muscular pain can be the by-product of other conditions, namely arthritis, muscle strain from excessive computer use and bad posture or from tension caused by stress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whatever the situation, muscular pain can prevent you from getting on with your life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Start by tacking muscular pain from the inside and look closely at your diet. Are you eating properly? Do you have a diet balanced in vitamin E and biotin? You can introduce biotin in your diet naturally with yeast derived products, if you don\u2019t fancy the taste, try taking them in pill form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Muscular pain can also be from a diet lacking in vitamin E. When you don\u2019t have enough vitamin E in your diet you experience tissue and muscular degeneration of which the symptoms are pain. By adding an evening primose oil supplement into your diet can greatly alleviate the symptoms of pain caused by this deficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To relieve muscle aches massage is very effective especially with the right essential oils to promote pain relief.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can create your own massage oil by using 10 drops of lavender, rosemary and marjoram oils to 50 ml of carrier oil. Apply to the affected area and massage until the oil is thoroughly worked into the muscle. This treatment is best suited after a warm shower or after application of a heat pack to loosen the aching muscle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another great remedy is to add 10 drops of chamomile to a hot bath and soak for 30 minutes to relieve aching muscles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cramp <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cramps are involuntary muscular spasms that can be painful and can range from the extremities to the abdomen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To minimize the pain and frequency of cramps you need to look at your diet. Often cramps can be triggered by a lack of sodium (salt) in the diet. Garlic supplements are great for replenishing what you lack as are zinc and calcium supplements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To treat muscular spasms of the extremities, namely the calf muscles and the hamstrings, create a massage oil by adding 4 drops of marjoram, lavender and rosemary oils to 3 drops of ginger oil in 25 ml of cream.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To prevent the likelihood of cramping after extreme physical activity mix 10 drops of lavender, marjoram and rosemary oils with 45 ml of carrier oil (vegetable). Warm up the muscles with a warm shower or bath and apply the massage mixture to the affected area taking special care to thoroughly massage into the muscles until evaporated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Hemorrhoids <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hemorrhoids are no laughing matter and depending upon the severity can affect your quality of life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hemorrhoids are swollen veins located within the walls of the anus. They can be external and internal and are often detected because they tend to bleed. These can be caused through genetic factors, as a result of pregnancy but more than likely through dietary habits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To treat your hemorrhoids from the inside out, first start with your diet. It\u2019s not enough to treat the painful symptoms without treating the cause.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Try to up your daily intake of fiber. A diet high in bran, cereals, fruits and vegetables enable the ease of removal of waste from your body, as does drinking plenty of fluids every day. Garlic and vitamin E supplements are also recommended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to rid yourself of hemorrhoids for the long term, you need to change your diet permanently. Altering your diet for the sole purpose of treating your hemorrhoids for today will only ensure temporary relief.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To relieve yourself of the painful symptoms create yourself a soothing ointment by adding 5 drops of yarrow and 5 drops of germanium oil in 25 ml of calendula gel. Apply to the affected area 3 to 4 times per day or as necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another great way to gain relief is to add to 10 drops of rose oil to a bath of warm water and soak for 30 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Varicose Veins <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Often a painful condition, varicose veins can be a symptom of lifestyle, for example jobs that require standing for hours at a time can see the development of varicose veins. Pregnancy and obesity also contribute to the development of varicose veins and can be attributed to poor circulation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Garlic supplements can help to heal within and just as beneficial, a diet high in fiber and vitamins E and C can also help to minimize the development of varicose veins as well as reduce the appearance of current ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To give relief to varicose and to help in the reduction of inflammation apply a cold compress to the affected area. To add even more relief, ensure that the compress is doused in witch hazel. This helps to sooth tired, aching legs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Always remember to avoid taking hot baths, opt for warm, tepid ones. Hot baths only exacerbates the inflammation of the vein walls and causes them to ache even more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The next time you take your warm, not hot bath try adding in 10 drops of juniper oil to improve circulation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Constipation <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Constipation is the result of diet and lifestyle where the regular functioning of the digestive tract is disrupted. Although constipation can be a symptom of other underlying factors it usually is linked to poor diet and lack of fluids in the diet causing the body\u2019s stool to be dry and compacted and hard to pass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By beginning with diet you can control the consistency and quality of stool that you produce. I know it sounds crass, but what comes out of your body is ultimately determined by what goes into it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By doing something as simple as reducing the amount of refined, processed foods you eat and by substituting them with whole grains, fresh fruit and vegetables and increasing your fluid intake can dramatically improve your bowel movement. When you eat foods high in fiber such as grains and cereals, these foods expand acting as a sweep, moving your stool effortlessly through your digestive tract which is why you need to eat more of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s important to expel your bowels of this harmful waste material to avoid building up toxicity in your body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also ensure that you drink 2 glasses of warm, spring water before eating anything. This wakes up your digestive system in preparation for food. It also is a great way to clean out those kidneys following your 8 hours of sleep.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Try incorporating more vitamin B into your regular diet. Diets deficient in vitamin B can be linked to poor digestion and constipation. Try drinking senna or ginger tea at least once a day to help with constipation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Here are a couple of natural remedies that can help alleviate the symptoms of constipation: <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Apply directly to your abdominal area 4 drops of peppermint with 4 drops of ginger to 25 ml of almond oil, or the base oil of your choice and rub in circles. Do this 2 to 3 times a day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To help relieve discomfort, use a flannel as a warm compress and add to the flannel 3 drops of peppermint and rosemary. Place on your abdomen for 30 minutes until pain begins to subside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another effective method of pain relief is to add 10 drops of peppermint oil to a warm bath, soak for at least 30 minutes. Do this as regularly as you need to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Diarrhea <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the opposite end of the spectrum we have diarrhea. Unlike a hard, dry stool with constipation, diarrhea is lose, often watery, accompanied by cramps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The cause of diarrhea can be from bacterial infection such as derived from food poisoning or can be from food allergies such as from an intolerance to gluten. Medication and antibiotics can also be linked to diarrhea and lose stools. Diarrhea can also be the symptom of stress or anxiety and be psychological nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So as you can see, diarrhea can have potentially several causes. We\u2019re going to cover the things that you can do, but if it persists, please contact your local health practitioner. Living with severe diarrhea is serious and can deplete the body of fluids, minerals and salts needed to function.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your diarrhea isn\u2019t severe, just replenish your fluids and try these remedies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If yours is derived from a bacterial infection, boost your immunity by taking garlic supplements. Drink plenty of fluids to replenish the fluids you\u2019ve lost. The next time you take a drink of water, add a little salt to it to replace the salt you would have lost through excretion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is particularly effective for diarrhea as a result of stress, add to a warm bath 3 drops of ginger oil and 3 drops of lavender oil and soak for at least 30 minutes to relieve stress and tension.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re unwell from bacterial infection and have a fever, add 3 drops of peppermint oil and 3 drops of lavender oil to cool bath.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Toothache <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No one can really comprehend the nagging and inescapable pain of a toothache until they actually experience for themselves first hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to a toothache, just remember that the pain is always symptomatic of something deeper. So if the pain becomes excruciating and if your jaw swells or if you\u2019re experiencing fever this could be a sign of infection in which case you should always seek the treatment of a dentist. If left untreated without medical intervention and a treatment of antibiotics the infection could enter into the blood stream and spread to different parts of the body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For future reference, there are things you can do to reduce the likelihood of getting another toothache. Proper dental hygiene is important to keep germs and infection at bay. Brush and floss at least twice a day. Reduce the amount of processed and refined sugars you consume.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019ve developed an abyss, garlic is great to help reduce the source of infection, reduce swelling and pain. Vitamin C will also encourage healing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you get to your dentist there are things that you can personally do to help relieve the pain of a toothache.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cloves are fantastic in the treatment of pain, add 2 drops of clove oil to a q-tip or cotton bud and apply to the affected tooth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Using reflexology can also help to dull toothache pain. By massaging the area between thumb and forefinger or by rubbing a cube of ice in this area in circular motions can also help to dampen the pain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To help fight infection, add 6 drops of tea tree oil to a 250 ml glass of tepid, warm water. Stir the mixture thoroughly. Swish around in your mouth paying special attention to the affected area. Do this twice a day directly after tooth brushing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another great pain relief method especially for aching pain and swelling is to create a special massage oil using 2 drops of peppermint oil mixed with 2 drops of lavender oil and add to 15 ml of olive oil which is your carrier oil. In a circular motion using your index and middle fingers, gently work the mixture into your cheek for 10 to 15 minutes or until pain begins to subside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Colds <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By the time you read this book it could very well be winter in your part of the world and with it comes the usual coughs and sniffles that the cold weather blows in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019ve fallen victim to a cold, here are some simple and natural ways that you can get rid of your cold in record time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019ll notice by now a theme emerging from these remedies. Usually to get rid of any ailment you first need to address the internal issues before dealing with the notion of your cold symptoms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So before we go down the route of recommending remedies for your running, congestion, headache and fever we first need to look at what compromised your immunity in the first place in order for you to get sick in the first place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Are you stressed? Are you run down? Are you getting enough rest? By being over stressed and under rested can actually weaken your immune system and make you susceptible to getting colds. A strong and healthy immune system can over ride an attack from cold producing bacteria, but a compromised one can\u2019t. Again, let\u2019s bolster your immunity by getting more garlic naturally into your diet. Again if this odor puts you off, opt for capsule supplements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you have a cold, what you eat is important and plays a huge factor in your healing time. For instance, if you\u2019re getting a little chesty, avoid eating dairy foods as it encourages mucus and phlegm formation. Although not directly linked to the increase in mucus production is does thicken the mucus already present and makes it more viscous. An uncomfortable byproduct of consuming dairy products while having a cold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To keep your body as phlegm free as possible try to eat more fruits and vegetables in particular those rich in vitamin C such as golden kiwifruit, guavas, oranges and lemons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Shocking Fact: <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cut down on your refined sugar consumption. Did you know that eating too much refined, processed sugar actually inhibits your immune system from working properly?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s right, after drinking soda or eating candy your ability to produce white blood cells, which are responsible for fighting infection, decreases by almost 50%. So fast acting is this sugar immuno-suppressant action that it takes effect only 20 minutes after consumption yet can hinder your immune system from working effectively for up to 6 hours!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Think of it surfing the internet while having your antiviral software disabled. The same applies with eating a diet too high in sugar. We go through life, exposed to all kinds of illnesses and diseases and it\u2019s like having our own personal body\u2019s anti viral defenses disabled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Your Body Knows Best <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This explains why when you\u2019re sick, you go off your natural cravings for chocolate and candies. This is your body\u2019s way of telling you what it needs over what it usually craves. When you\u2019re sick, your body knows best and your tastes change to compensate, for example your desire to eat junk food diminishes and your desire to consume more fluids and to eat foods high in vitamin C increases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, to give your body\u2019s immunity a fighting chance and to reduce the likelihood of getting sick, lay off the refined sugars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Consume more teas containing peppermint and chamomile and if you can get hold of special Manuka honey. This type of honey is found in New Zealand and is available worldwide. The great thing about Manuka honey is it\u2019s honey derived from the Manuka tree, this tree contains several healing and anti-bacterial properties and acts as natures antibiotics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ancient Maori people used this honey to help heal their wounds and stomach ailments for hundreds of years before science ever proved its benefits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I can honestly say that cold sores, gum infections, cuts, scraps and burns heal 2 to 3 times faster with Manuka honey than without, it\u2019s nature\u2019s healing elixir in a jar. See if a health shop near you stocks and then keep it in your kitchen pantry for easy access when you need it. The best time to take it is when you get that tickle in the back of your throat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To have the healing property effect you will need to get your Manuka honey with either a rating of 20 UMF or 25 UMF. This is still safe to consume daily but also has the natural antibiotic healing properties. Anything lower than this, for example under 20 UMF will dilute its healing abilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>UMF stands for Unique Manuka Factor and represents the type of plant it was derived from, only plants with the UMF label have the special antibiotic factor specific for healing and is only found on some Manuka (<em>Leptospermum scoparium) <\/em>plants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>UMF factor is determined by placing the Manuka honey on a petri dish with a bacteria culture and gauging the results. The more powerful UMF factor, the more effective its ability to kill bacteria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Manuka honey can treat stomach ulcers that have resulted from the h pylori bacteria and are also effective for treating staphylococcus and streptococcus which is effective in the treatment of sore throats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From personally using Manuka honey, before the winter season hits I usually up my daily dosage by adding a tablespoon to my oatmeal for breakfastor smearing some onto my morning toast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A great way to unwind is with a cup of lemon and Manuka honey tea. I take an entire lemon, squeeze it into a cup, add 2 tablespoons of Manuka honey and fill with hot water and enjoy, the perfect ending to a cold winter\u2019s day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Here are a few of my favorite cold remedies that you can put to work for you: <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before your cold really takes hold, early action can nip the degree of severity in the bud. When you feel a little sniffly, add to a handkerchief or to an old scarf that you wrap around your neck, 3 drops of eucalyptus oil and tea tree oil. If you add to an old scarf, take special care to add it on the part of the scarf directly under the chin. This allows the vapors access for inhalation and keeps the air passages clear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For a congested chest, make your own home made natural chest rub. Mix 5 drops of peppermint, thyme and ginger to 25 ml of almond carrier oil and massage into the chest and back until oil dries. Do this 2 to 3 times per day until chest clears.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For a stuffy head and sinuses, add to a boiling bowl of hot water, 6 drops of eucalyptus oil with 6 drops of tea tree oil. Place a towel over the head and inhale the vapor for 10 minutes. Ensure that your eyes are closed and that your face doesn\u2019t touch the surface of the water. Remember this is extremely hot water and can scold if not done carefully.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For sore throats, place 5 tablespoons of sea salt in a glass of tepid warm water and gargle and spit out. Repeat until all of the water is gone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Give relief to tired achy and painful joints, by adding 10 drops of lavender and tea tree oil to hot bath and soak for at least 30 minutes. A hot bath eases the pain of painful joints and increases mobility while encouraging more peaceful, restful sleep.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Coughs <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A part from chest congestion, the thing that can disturb a potentially sound and restful night\u2019s sleep is coughing. The very action of coughing taxes your energy and can leave you feeling battered and bruised from the inside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Coughing is the body\u2019s spontaneous reflex to clear out the air passages and while designed to rid the respiratory tract of phlegm and to encourage proper breathing, coughing can sometimes to be triggered by other factors such as dust, pollen, dampness and smoking, often leaving you with a dry, irritable cough that just won\u2019t go away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To alleviate coughing during times of chest infection use 5 drops of lavender oil and 5 drops ginger oil to 25 ml of carrier oil such as almond oil. Rub in circular motions into the chest, back and throat area (external use only). These essential oils act as expectorants and help to loosen and remove the mucus from your system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A hot steam inhalation will give rapid relief to a dry, hacking cough. Add 3 drops of tea tree oil to 3 drops of sandalwood to a bowl of hot water. Cover your head with a towel and inhale the steam for 10 minutes. Repeat once in the morning and once at night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Hay Fever <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For those who suffer with hay fever you always seem to magically know when spring has arrived. If your hay fever is driving you crazy and you want to try a natural alternative, here are a few great remedies you can put to use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you experience hay fever, chances are you\u2019ve had it since childhood. You usually know from its onset and the weepy, swollen eyes and running nose are clear signs its allergy season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hay fever is the result of inflammation of the tissue lining within the nasal passages, it usually affects the eyes, throat and nose and is the result of the reaction to pollen allergens. A hay fever attack can be exacerbated by poor health and stress since the weakening of the immune system leaves your body defenseless against allergens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By cutting back on the amount of dairy you consume can alleviate hay fever symptoms. By also boosting your immune system with plenty of vitamin C and garlic and getting plenty of rest you can reduce the severity of hay fever symptoms normally experienced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Try infusing your diet with immunity strengthening Manuka honey. It\u2019s healing properties can help better prepare your immune system when hay fever strikes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To help clear out your nasal passages and to relieve head tension try adding 3 drops of lavender oil to 3 drops of rose oil to a tissue or a handkerchief and inhale. Once the mixture has evaporated and lost its potency, add another 3 drops of each again to replenish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For relief of weeping, swollen and inflamed eyes, try placing a cucumber in the refrigerator for a couple of hours. Slice the cucumber into 1\/2 inch pieces and place over each eye for 10 minutes for soothing eye relief.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another great remedy is to drizzle a teaspoon of rose water (not rose oil) into a cold, damp wash cloth and place over the eyes while closed. Leave on for 10 minutes. You can repeat this over again for as long as you need relief.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Massaging is also a great way to relieve hay fever trauma to the body. Believe it or not, the very action of coughing and sneezing places stress on the body and can bruise and damage the tissue around the ribs. People often feel as though their ribs have been bruised after an intense coughing bout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To reduce the frequency of coughing and sneezing and to relieve painful aftermath, combine 5 drops of lavender with 5 drops of rose oil and add to 25 ml of carrier oil. When applying and massaging, pay special attention to the neck and chest and rib area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Psychological<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even the Romans and the Egyptians had the right idea when they used essential oils for the purpose of calming the mind. The same still applies today, in fact the right combination of essential oils can completely transform your state of mind, taking you from stressed and panicked to calm and collected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In our modern times we\u2019ve never found ourselves more stressed than we are now and even though we have technology to automate much of what we do instead of the notion that we would be able to do less, we\u2019ve found ourselves busier now than ever before. Instead of freeing up the time when we used to do manually we\u2019ve now filled it with even more work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s no wonder that we\u2019re more stressed than ever before and the development of the myriad of stress related illnesses is at an all time high.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stress may be the way that you interpret your surroundings and the external pressures of life around you but it gets serious when it impacts on your health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In fact stress is linked with blood pressure, anxiety, depression, digestion issues, lethargy and can even compromise the immune system especially when a person is subjected to stress on long term basis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is why it\u2019s so important to take the time for yourself and to de-stress from a hard days work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are a couple of things that you can do to get your stress levels under control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Regular exercise is also a great stress relief mechanism and releases endorphins, the body\u2019s natural feel good hormones. It also promotes, deeper more restful sleep.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meditation is also fantastic for clearing the mind of stressful thoughts.

I doubt it, yet we use these things every day of our lives without so much as a second thought.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We entrust our lives to the cosmetic and pharmaceutical companies that manufacture these items, yet how often have they jumped the gun and released products only to be pulled within months because of their adverse side effects on the health of consumers?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just because something is supposedly deemed safe by the health authorities doesn\u2019t necessary make it so and after today you\u2019ll look at the packaging and ingredients more closely before entrusting them with your health. Nothing can substitute your own curiosity or performing your own due diligence; don\u2019t let reputation ever substitute your own good old fashioned common sense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just because you may have been using the same skin care creams for years doesn\u2019t mean that you\u2019re safe either. Even though you may not experience any major symptoms today doesn\u2019t mean that you\u2019re off the hook and won\u2019t at some time further down the track.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We live in a toxic cocktail world. We can\u2019t turn the corner without seeing some kind of chemical influence in our lives and this applies to our cosmetics, household cleaners, toothpaste, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Without giving it a second thought we reach for the bleach or the shower mold remover, even the very shampoos that we use contain a myriad of chemicals that you can\u2019t pronounce outside of a chemical laboratory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We used to use these things derived from nature directly from the source, these days it\u2019s cheaper to just artificially reproduce it in a lab, but the result?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We are becoming more sensitive to the things around us. We have become a nation of allergy sufferers. All of the chemicals we come into contact with each day eventually have compromised our immune systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Home Made Remedies For The Skin And Detoxification<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Drinking solutions is one of the best ways to detoxify the body, but not the only way. There are many who do not want to take the solutions for a variety of different reasons, or who also want additional body detoxification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Using massage oils made from essential oils is one way that you can work to detoxify your body on a long term scale. Essential oils should never be used directly on the skin, with the exception of Rose and Lavender, as they can cause a reaction. As discussed earlier, aromatherapy works to detoxify your body in a slower way and will work continually over a period of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can find essential oils for these recipes online or in some health food stores. It is very important that you use pure essential oils or extracts for these recipes as synthetics will not give you the same results. These recipes are all safe to use topically as massage oils. You can also use the alternate recipes, given after the massage oil recipe, to inhale the oils to allow for detoxification to go through the lungs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These are all safe and tested recipes for aromatherapy style detoxification:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Aromatherapy Body Detoxification One &#8211; Lavender and Rose<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is one of the easiest of all of the aromatherapy detoxification recipes. It combines two of the safest essential oils that will not only relax you, but cleanse your body of its impurities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00bd Cup Lavender Oil<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00bc Cup Rose Oil<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mix well together and then massage onto your feet, neck and chest area. The essential oils will be absorbed into your skin and then into your blood stream. This is a good recipe for those who are tense and want to relax, while detoxifying their body at the same time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can also put the oils directly into an infuser and breath in the scent. This will allow it to be absorbed into the lungs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another alternate to this recipe is to put the oils in your bath and soak in them. You will start to feel relaxed right away as you will not only be breathing in the oils, but allowing them to soak into your bloodstream through your skin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember, lavender and rose are the only essential oils that are safe to put directly on the skin. The rest of the recipes will involve the use of a carrier oil for direct skin contact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Aromatherapy Body Detoxification Two &#8211; Frankincense<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Frankincense has been used as a healing potent for thousands of years. You can use this as a way to get rid of body toxins as well as help your circulatory system:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1 Cup Carrier Oil (such as canola oil)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1 Teaspoon of pure Frankincense<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mix the oils together well. You should put them in a dark bottle with a cork lid for the best results. Once they are mixed together, you can then use them as a massage oil. Rub the soles of your feet with this mixture as well as the chest area. This will do wonders for your circulatory system and the scent is pleasant. If you have a partner, see if they will massage your back. You can get canola oil at any grocery store. Frankincense is a common essential oil that can be used as a body detoxifier and is found at most health food stores. Remember to only use pure Frankincense for this recipe. You can also put the oil in an infuser and breathe in. Because the scent of this essential oil is so pleasant, many people choose to not only use it as a massage oil, but also as a relaxing scent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Aromatherapy Body Detoxification Three &#8211; Tea Tree Oil &amp; Lemon<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Both Tree Tea Oil and Lemon Oil are useful when it come to helping the digestive system. If you want to lose weight as well as clear out your digestive system so that it works well, you can make this mix at home and use it as a massage oil or in an infuser:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1 Cup Carrier Oil (such as canola oil)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00bd Teaspoon of Tea Tree Oil<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00bd Teaspoon of Pure lemon oil (not lemon juice)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mix the oils together in a brown bottle and shake. Use them in the same manner as you use the other aromatherapy massage oils. You can also inhale them in the infuser. Be sure to get pure lemon oil and not lemon juice. Pure lemon extract will work as a substitute for this type of detoxification if you cannot find pure lemon oil. Tea Tree oil is available at most health food stores &#8211; just be sure that it is pure and not made from synthetics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Aromatherapy Body Detoxification Four &#8211; Almond<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is one of the aromatherapy treatments that you can use from extracts that are readily available in the grocery store. You should still use a carrier oil when you are using extracts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1 Cup Carrier oil (such as canola oil)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1 Teaspoon of pure Almond Extract<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1 Teaspoon of pure Vanilla Extract<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Combine all of the products and shake well in the bottle. You can then apply on the skin. The scent is very nice and you can also burn the oils on their own in the infuser. This is a body detoxification that will work to bolster the immune system and clear out any toxins. Best of all, you can easily find the extracts when you are in the store.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Using massage therapy and breathing in the essential oils is one way that you can detoxify your body at home. In addition to using these techniques, however you should still practice good habits such as not smoking, limiting your alcohol intake and drinking plenty of water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Hair Dyes<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s an interesting little snippet of information, did you know that with some commercial brand hair dyes that it penetrates the skin on the scalp and is carried through the bloodstream?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Got to love that skin, it\u2019s the largest of the human body\u2019s organs that it absorbs pretty much anything it comes into contact with. We think of it as a protective barrier and it is but there are certain chemicals that can compromise the skin\u2019s ability to protect and can actually increase the ability for chemicals to be absorbed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After having commercial hair dye brands applied to the scalp, chemicals in the hair dye are detected in the urine after treatment. It\u2019s frightening to think that the components of your hair dye ended up in your kidneys.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even more frightening still, you may blissfully go through life dying your hair without any kind of reaction but bit by bit your body begins to build up an intolerance to your favourite hair dye until you break out in a serious allergy and can no longer dye your hair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is the result of the insidious PPD (para-phenylenediamine), which by the way has been banned in the United Kingdom from being added to cosmetics and hair products and has been added to its long list of &#8220;hot items&#8221; to be aware of.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately in the United States and many other parts of the world, the same caution is not being exercised and these potentially hazardous chemicals are still present in our cosmetics and hair dyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The reason why PPD is used in permanent hair dyes is because of the ability to adhere the color to the shaft of the hair, it penetrates deeply maintaining permanent hair color until the hairs own natural color grows out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately with PPD, in addition to the hair shaft being penetrated it also tends to deeply penetrate the skin and is what is called a strong sensitizer, this means that it enables the absorption of other chemicals, potentially harmful to your health, to be absorbed into the skin. With prolonged exposure to PPD through frequent hair dying your resistance becomes compromised until one day you suddenly become acutely sensitive to the hair dye you happily used for years with no prior issues. The effects of PPD accumulate with time like a snowball until your body has reached its tolerance and then you can no longer dye your hair with the same product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>So what are the side effects of using hair dye? <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Fertility Issues <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A good friend of mine who is a fertility expert recommend that her patients CEASE using commercial hair dyes in order to improve fertility. Using hair dye products containing PPD can decrease fertility. My friend also noticed a dramatic difference between the fertility of women who worked as hairdressers and women who did not. The women who worked within the hairdressing industry and who were exposed to hair dyes on a daily basis had more difficulty falling pregnant than those who weren\u2019t.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Allergic Reactions <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Especially with PPD (para-phenylenediamine) based hair dyes can be as extreme as anaphylactic shock and even death. Anaphylactic shock is a severe allergic reaction that can constrict the airways obstructing breathing when a person comes into contact with an allergen, around 400 people a year die in the United States from anaphylactic shock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Chemicals to look out for <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>6-Methoxy-2,3-Pyridinediamine <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2,3-Naphthalenediol <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2-Methoxymethyl-p-Aminophenol <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>4-Hydroxyindole <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>5-Amino-4-Fluoro-2-Methylphenol Sulphate <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>N-Cyclopentyl-m-Aminophenol <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This list is by no means complete, but these are the main ones that you should be looking at the packaging with a magnifying glass to find.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These have the ability to inhibit reproductive ability, can act as a mutagen which can impair normal cellular function and potentially develop into cancer which also makes them carcinogens, can also cause allergies, dermatitis and skin irritations and affect nerve function.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>So what can you use instead? <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some alternatives are using vegetable based hair dyes, although the effect is short lived and will only last for around a month, they are ultimately better for your long term health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Henna is also a better substitute and doesn\u2019t contain all of the harsh chemicals that regular hair dye does. Be careful, not all Henna types are good for you. Black Henna has been known to cause allergic reactions and also has been found to contain PPD to help lock in permanent colour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you absolutely must insist on hitting the hair dye bottle then why not try opting for semi-permanent? Again the results are short lived but are much less harmful than its ammonia, peroxide containing cousin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cleaning Products<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aside from the acute poisoning risk of some household cleaners others such as sodium hydroxide and phosphoric acid can burn the skin and the vapours cause irritation and damage to the eyes as well as burn the lungs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some disinfectants contain phenols which are a potential carcinogen (cancer causing) and neurotoxin which can mutate DNA and affect organs such as the kidneys and liver. Because it\u2019s a potential neurotoxin it can damage the nervous system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aerosol furniture polish contains flammable propane and butane gas and contains silicone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Glass cleaners can cause health side effects particularly in those who are exposed daily through their jobs and is linked to reproductive and fertility complications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The startling thing is that children are more susceptible to the effects of household cleaners than adults in fact so sensitive are children that the toxins can be absorbed by an expectant mother and travel across the umbilical cord and absorbed into the foetus. This can cause developmental problems in the unborn child.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Make sure that you go as green and eco-friendly as you can when it comes to your household cleaning agents. It must be biodegradable and non-toxic. Products that use the natural cleaning power of citrus is a great way to go. It has multiple uses, is non-toxic and doesn\u2019t add phosphates into the environment and it has a refreshing, natural smell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Toothpaste <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You only associate formaldehyde with preservation but it\u2019s also a component in toothpaste, the stuff we use each day to keep our teeth nice and clean. The fact that we use it on a daily basis, year after year means that we have constant exposure to it. In high doses formaldehyde can be fatal if swallowed and also has the ability to be absorbed through the skin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to being a suspected carcinogen and neurotoxin which can affects the nervous system, the potential side effects are spasms and tissue damage to the mucous membranes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are other natural, organic based toothpastes that you can pick up from your local health shop and if you want to make your own try using good old fashioned sea salt which acts as a natural bactericide. To keep breath fresh, brush the tongue. The tongue harbours more bacteria than the teeth and cheeks combined and is more responsible for the cause of bad breath.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cosmetics <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Queen Elizabeth the first used to slather on lead based foundation made from a mixture of vinegar and lead to the point where her hair began to fall out and thin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don\u2019t think that because they used to incorporate lead into cosmetics back in the day that they don\u2019t now, because they do. In fact, there are still lipsticks on the market that contain lead based ingredients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even that high priced fashion brand lipstick that you pay top dollar for contains lead too. The best way to avoid using lead based lipsticks is to do your homework before you buy. The internet is such a great way to go about this and the 10 minutes you take to do a little detective work can help keep you safe. Check out your favorite brands and see if any of their ingredients appear on the chemical banned list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>A word of advice: <\/strong>when cosmetic companies mention &#8220;color stay&#8221; or &#8220;color fast&#8221; there is a chance that they could contain lead as the lead allows the color to better adhere to the lips. Just be aware of the terminology buzz words to look out for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The side effects of lead exposure range from possible seizures to learning disabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to selecting your cosmetics, a little due diligence will go a long way. Just look for organic cosmetics made with natural ingredients, always read the label.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Perfumes <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You won\u2019t believe what they put into perfume. No matter how eco-friendly and &#8220;natural&#8221; the majority of fragrances claim to be most of them contain toxic, carcinogenic ingredients and have the potential to cause allergies and irritation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Symptoms can range from skin discoloration to dizziness, nausea and violent coughing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fragrances are a melting pot of hundreds of different ingredients often containing harmful methylene chloride which is a carcinogen and has been linked to brain damage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to fragrances try going for ones that are made from natural, aromatherapy essential oils, ones that you can make yourself. There\u2019s no sweeter fragrance than the one you make with your own hands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Clothing <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Believe it or not formaldehyde is used in the treatment of clothing to keep them mildew and wrinkle free and to hold onto colors for longer. Because the skin is the largest organ of the body it absorbs whatever it comes into contact with, hence the toxicity build up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Formaldehyde exposure can cause irritation to the mucous membranes causing sensitivity to the eyes, throat and nose. It can also cause coughing and tightness of the chest, bronchitis and in some individuals can cause asthma attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To avoid getting ill from your brand new clothes, always wash them before you wear them to rid them of the majority of the chemicals. Because the formaldehyde treatment is deeply ingrained you will need a few washes to lessen the toxicity levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You should also do that with baby clothes, sheets, linens, anything brand new that can potentially come into contact with the skin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Conclusion <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you liked what you read today and you want to go more natural for the sake of your health and that of your family, then check out the Aromatherapy First Aid Kit, no first aid kit should be without it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You won\u2019t just learn about the natural alternatives you can use, you\u2019ll also learn how to make them yourself from scratch, that way you can truly guarantee that your own home made brand of household cleaners and items are completely natural.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019ll discover the best ways to naturally create your own eco-friendly, health friendly biodegradable household cleaners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019ll also find practical tips on how to heal yourself from colds, stress and how to create your own natural alternative to shampoos, cosmetics and fragrances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Improve your health from within with Aromatherapy First Aid kit, get yours now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To your health and wellness.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Discover How To Heal Your Self From The Inside Out using Natural Time Tested Aromatherapy\u00a0 Remedies\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":717,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":true,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-716","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-home-remedies"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
