Steaming
Hi Girls,
@whitneycares_gsg here. Just wanted to share a health tip I picked up.I’m all about holistic remedies (not against western medicine). Steaming is extremely good for your respiratory system and the ingredients listed are great immune supporters. Not to mention leaves your face feeling brand new! Who doesn't want that?!
Literally use any type of orange, lemon, lime or grapefruit. Whatever you have on hand, in the back yard or can easily pick up at on your next store run. The herbs/plants can be used in it’s natural form or via essential oil, in its purest form. You can use other herbs that you already have in the pantry; bay leaves, thyme, sage, etc. Cinnamon can be powder or stick. I prefer the stick. Dried flower petals can also be fresh. Dried are easy to order online. This should be done at minimum, daily. It can be done hourly as well. I personally do it twice a day. In the morning before I meditate and do my sunrise yoga and at night before bed. Let me tell you, since steaming at night I have NEVER slept better. *That result will vary by person. My skin is healing and I just feel good after.
