Salves
Salves are wonderful things. They can be used for physical healing as well as spiritual practices. Salves come in many different forms and styles. One of my favorite salves would be a plantain salve. I use it as an antiseptic on wounds. There are others out there which could also be useful.

I mean they are both for healing. They have different healing properties that would help each other.spiritraven wrote:I never thought of that but I bet it would! I will definitely have to try that this summer

Re: Salves
Do you think there are some herbs that work better in salves than in other forms?
Re: Salves
Just ordered some supplies to start work on a healing hands salve. Im going to extract calendula in almond oil to start.
