Peppermint Oil

Peppermint has a strong, clean, fresh, minty aroma.  One of the oldest and most highly regarded herbs for soothing digestion. Research shows the inhalation of peppermint oil helps trigger a sense of fullness after meals, enhances your sense of taste and smell, and improves concentration and mental activity. After a long day a bath with peppermint oil works wonders for my body  I combine 10 drops of peppemint oil to 1 cup of sea salt  mix it up and add two tablespoons to a hot bath. It also makes an excellent foot scrub. Another great tip, combine peppermint oil with lavender oil, for a smoothing and invigorating body, neck and foot massage  Peppermint oil can also be applied over the stomach to soothe minor digestive discomfort.
Thought for the day:
Not every one of our dreams can be immediately gratified. We have got to learn to wait patiently for our dreams to come true, especially on the path we've chosen.  But while we wait, we need to prepare symbolically a place for
our hopes and dreams.
