Our friend Jillee has posted a recipe for a fantastic sleep salve. Did you know that essential oils are absorbed through the soles of the feet? They should not be put on undiluted, so this salve is the perfect way to go. Simply massage into the soles of your feet before bedtime and look forward to drifting off more easily into the land of nod. Plus, it will soften the skin of your feet at the same time! Sounds good to me. 🙂
Jillee’s formula contains essential oils of ginger, grapefruit, lemon, peppermint and cinnamon bark. The “base” is comprised of Coconut Oil, Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Beeswax and vitamin E oil (this last ingredient is optional).
Another essential oil that has been noted since old times for its sleepy-time qualities is lavender. If you’re interested to check out a whole list of herbs that have been considered by herbalists (ancient and modern) to have sleep-assisting qualities, check out this page: Top 10 Herbs For Insomnia.
Another great way to use lavender to help sleep is to leave a bottle of lavender essential oil (somewhere safe it won’t spill!) open somewhere nearby so that you just get a gentle waft of the aroma as you are closing your eyes. Works surprisingly well and there have been scientific studies that support this.

😳 Tinnitus And Brain Health?
After 47 years of studies and countless brain scans done on more than 2,400 tinnitus patients, scientists at the MIT Institute found that in a shocking 96% of cases, tinnitus was actually shrinking their brain cells.
As it turns out, tinnitus and brain health are strongly linked.

Is because they are using something called "the wire method", a simple protocol inspired by a classified surgery on deaf people from the 1950s...

This is especially important if you spend a significant amount of time sitting every day (I do, and this really affects me in a big way!)
Working this "hidden survival muscle" that most people are simply not training because no-one ever taught them how will boost your body shape, energy levels, immune system, sexual function, strength and athletic performance when unlocked.
If this "hidden" most powerful primal muscle is healthy, we are healthy.

I’m allergic to cinnimon. what would you recomend as a substitute?
My grandson’s eyes get red and swell almost shut once a month…every time he spends a weekend with us. We suspect it might be an allergy to wood, or trees, as we heat with wood. What can we do for him?
Hope all is well. Soon we can be out in herb garden. Every month toward the end I like to adventure out and fine new blogs.

Why shouldn’t you put oils on your soles undiluted?
I really need to try this. Sleep is an elusive state for me most nights. But, WOW! The ingredients for this salve would be expensive, and I don’t have any of them, so I would have to start from scratch. I’m sure that once I had the ingredients, I could make enough salve to last a long time, but the initial cost is daunting. Do you know if anyone sells the salve, already compounded?
