Winter Balm

Posted by suzanne sanders on December 18, 2012 at 4:15pm

This Winter Balm ( It has a texture, just like a salve) has been really fun to make.  Don't get me wrong, I love everything about my other salves.  My first Herbal Salve gave me adventures in the mountains, collecting the herbs that I needed.  I loved watching it as it was being sun infused during the summer weeks.  Going from no color to deep red.  My second salve, the Invigorating Salve, I fell in love with the herb Rosemary.  Rosemary has so many healing qualities, it is incredible   Such a simple herb to grow.  The comfrey in both the salves was from my own comfrey patches.  If I would say I had a favorite herb, I would say comfrey is on  the list.  It is also, great horse, goat, chicken and duck food.  I will make sure I harvest enough  next summer!  

So, what is so special about the Winter Balm?  The smell!  It smells incredible .. Imagine you just picked a sprig of evergreen off of a cedar branch.  Now imagine putting that smell on you body, your sore joints, your arthritis or on your chest if you have a chest cough.  There is more.  It has dried juniper berries and grated orange peel in it.  It is also used for aromatherapy  it will take away your unhappiness, your fears, your tears by rubbing this amazing balm on you.  Feel sad, feel fearful, feel angry, just apply as much as need throughout the day.  Breath it in, in many deep breaths and it will pull those negative emotions away.  

It smells so good some people buy this for a truly natural perfume.
