It is a good time for chest congestion. That is, a lot of people are suffering from it.

If you are not interested in over the counter medications, there are plenty of natural remedies for this problem.

For starters, herbal tea can be extremely helpful, especially if you inhale the steam. By adding apple cider vinegar to hot water and/or herbal tea, you can also get a lot of help.

Eucalyptus oil is another helpful cure. Specifically, again, add it to hot water so you can inhale the steam. Lavender, oregano, and thyme as herbs or essential oils can also be used in this remedy.

Now that we have talked about tea specifically as a known treatment for black eyes, what type of tea is going to do the most healing?  That is what I have been asking myself and it is sage.  Sage tea compresses are actually fantastic for you to put onto any black eyes as this particular herb has been known to treat not just black eyes but bruises in general.

Just brew yourself a pot of sage tea, make sure that you stick a cloth in there – let it cool down and lay it over your eyes for an hour.  In an hour’s time, you will be able to see a remarkable difference in your bruises and black eye – I know that I did!

If you want a cure, sage is definitely a cure for black eyes if you repeat this process everyday until it is gone!

All right guys, so I am going to share something personal with you … I fell down the stairs this past weekend.  Sunday, I took a tumble down on top of a bunch of laundry and I definitely bruised not just my hand, thigh, calf and head but I bruised my eye.  When I woke up this morning, I have a black eye.

So – that lead me to these next few posts.  What does cure a black eye naturally or at least what helps speed up the process?  That is what the next couple blogs are for and that is what we are going to talk about.  One of the first things that helps are tea compresses – honestly, place a teabag on your black eye and in no time at all, it should go down.

In the next blog, we will talk about what specific teas will help you with your black eye (and thank god for that!) … stay tuned!

Now that we have talked about one of the ways that you can get rid of pesky skin tags, let’s go ahead and dive right into another one.  To be perfectly honest, skin tags are nothing that you really need to worry about – they are however something that you should get rid of.

One great way that I found is duct tape.  Duct tape is something that I have found that not only works great but it is pretty painless.  All you do is apply the duct tape over the skin tag … let it sit and you will see just how easy it comes off!

Skin tags are unsightly and not something that you really want to deal with – however you do not have to have any chemicals to get them off.

We all know that skin tags are not something that you want to deal with … ever, however when you get older, it is something that happens.  It is unavoidable for the most part and I can tell you that these extra growths on the skin are pretty disgusting and can spread all over.  That is why you want to make sure that you take care of them right away.

While most people have them frozen off by the doctor, there are actually a ton of different things that you can do … naturally that will help you get rid of your skin tags and involve no chemicals at all.

For example, baking soda and castor oily is one home remedy that has been used forever.  You make a paste, put it to the area and within two weeks, you will see some results!

First and foremost — what the heck is the Alexander Technique? Well, in short, is it designed to help promote the right posture, which can correct a whole lot of back pain.

You see, if you do not sit correctly or walk properly, in terms of posture, then the body can become unbalanced, which can lead to all sorts of pain, not to mention fatigue.

The Alexander Technique is a technique which makes us aware of how we sit, stand, and walk. They are designed to relax, to reduce stress, to straighten the spine, to help the muscles, and even to improve circulation and articulation.

As we grow older, most of us will naturally fall into the habit of slouching, or carrying too much of our weight on a single side of our body. The techniques and exercises which make up the Alexander Technique may be able to correct that, and to thus either improve or outright prevent the back pain which occurs over time.

Is it possible that you can simply say you are healthy, and you will be healthy?

Well, a lot of people seem to think so. It seems to be a belief that if you are self confident and self motivated, you can be healthier.

What are the merits to such a claim? For one thing, if you can be confident in yourself, it can significantly reduce your stress levels. If you are less stressed, you will naturally both be healthier and feel healthier.

Relaxation therapy, as well as others, can help you to gain confidence and relieve stress, but most of it is going to come down to you. You have to believe that therapies like these will worth, that you can have control over the stressors in your life, that you can choose not to be stressed out, and that you can be healthy if you are confident in yourself.

Now that we have talked about lavender as a great source to be using whenever you have a headache, let’s talk about one more herb that is really, really going to help you.  That is peppermint.  This little mint can do a hell of a lot of wonders of your head and also for your stomach.  Peppermint is something that can be ingested in many different ways as well.

For example, the candy is a fantastic way to not only get the smell of peppermint up your nose, but it will also help when you are looking to keep your mind busy.  Another way is peppermint tea.  This is a great way to get your peppermint when you have a stomach-ache, as it is something hot and it will help you in the long run.

There you have it!  Two different herbs that can both help you with your headaches and migraines; no more painkillers for you!
