Maria just informed me that she wanted to drive nails through her ears because her head hurt so bad.  This, being a bit messier than I am willing to clean up after right now, led me to investigate which of my Essential Oils could be  used to help her alleviate her headache sans bloodshed.  Whipping out my cauldron I quickly created a small brown glass jar with a mixture for her to add to her temples, forehead, and back of her neck.  As any good scientist (thinking of Walter on Fringe) I felt compelled to try it myself.  Refreshing feeling and easy on the olfactory organ.  Eager to see if it worked.  Stay tuned!

Headache Relief Take 1

2 gtts Myrrh

4 gtts Eucalyptus

6 gtts Peppermint

15 gtts Apricot Oil (no particular reason, just the carrier oil closest to me at the moment)

Place all in a small bowl or glass jar and massage a small amount on the temples, across the forehead and across the back of the neck at the hairline.  Reapply hourly for a few hours until headache (hopefully) retreats.
