HEALING, NATURALLY; HONEY & ONION COUGH REMEDY



Autumn has well and truly announced her chilly arrival here in Tassie and brought with her the first - of what will likely be many - head colds of the season...      such is life when working with twenty-two little ones.

In order to nourish, heal and protect, I've turned to a simple and natural, homemade remedy using just two, staple ingredients - honey and onion - both known for their incredibly powerful antibacterial and medicinal properties.


To Prepare

Slice onion, place in a small bowl and cover with honey {manuka would be ideal, but if not, use whatever you have in the pantry - I used leatherwood from a friend's hive}. Allow to rest in the fridge for twenty four hours and then strain the honey liquid from the onion. Take a spoonful to soothe an irritated throat or chesty cough, as needed.

This indicates mild to help critical conditions and is also recognizable simply by associated signs or symptoms. See more http://survival-mastery.com/med/health/cough-remedies.html

  2. Everything we need to survive and enjoy our lives are just all around us for our discovery and use, and yes even those that we need to heal our hurts, pains and ailments are in nature. Anxiety
