HOME REMEDIES: COMMON LAVENDER

 

 St Hildegard writes:

"When God created man, a different type of earth was used to form him. Henceforth, all substances were subject to man, because they sensed that in him was life, and they endeavoured to aid him in him in all his efforts, and man's aim, in turn, was to help them."


LAVENDER (LAVANDULA SPICA)

Common lavender (Lavandula spica) [L. augustofolia, L. officinalis]

Common lavender is warm and dry, its warmth is beneficial. 

Boiled with wine or honey and water it gets rid of CHEST CONGESTION and alleviates LUNG AND LIVER PAIN

It brings about pure knowledge and a good character.

(From: St Hildegard of Bingen, Physica)
