This Week's Feature ~ Migraine Headaches

Do any of you struggle with Migraine Headaches? If you do you know how horrible and debilitating they can be. My mom and I both have suffered from them. Normally what we would do would be to go to bed and suffer for hours and then wait for a few days for the effects to subside. In the past few years we learned that there are some natural remedies that are available to use for migraines. Since then we have been able to stop several migraines from developing.

At the first sign of a migraine (an aura, numb feeling, pain, etc. ) take Feverfew tea. This is made by putting 1 tsp of feverfew herb in a tea ball or tea bag, with 1 cup of water and simmer for 12 minutes. It is best to drink this right away. Only take 2-3 times per day.

Another remedy for migraines is to get in a hot tub and put ice packs/ ice bags on the persons head and the back of their neck. Keep them well hydrated and in a dark quite room. If one does not have access to a bathtub, use a hot water bottle and put it on their feet and ice on their heads. The ice is for pushing the blood away from the head and the hot water to the feet and body will help to pull the blood to the feet and other areas of the body.

A little recap...

Life has been so busy lately I've not had time to blog..and also, I used to just blog pictures when I didn't have time to write, but I broke my camera so I'm stuck with writing.

We had a great time at camp-meeting and then drove home only to do laundry and some other things at home and leave 12 hours later to head down to Georgia for the SDA General Conference Session in Atlanta.

On our way down here we stopped in northern GA and spent the day yesterday at Tallulah Falls which was just gorgeous. Nalani and I made a record of how many steps we've done in a day. God's creation is just amazing.

Tomorrow we'll be heading to the GC session. :) It's going to be so exciting seeing Adventists from all over the world.

Well...off to experience the adventures for the day... :)

This weeks feature... ~All Purpose Herbal Salve~





We tested this Salve out about a year ago and have used it for many purposes. Some of which are: bug bites, small scrapes and scratches, burns, hives, bruised tendons, muscle aches and pains, etc. It is incredible.

I'll just take a few minutes to share a couple personal testimonies.

Several months ago my dear mother hit the top of her foot on our stoneware pan that was sitting in the middle of the floor. Thinking that she would be fine, she kept walking around finishing packing up the car as we were getting ready to drive a 4-hour trip home. Half-way home she was in so much pain that I had to stop and get ice for her. By the time we arrived near home she decided that I had to take her to the ER to figure out what she had done. After finally managing to get her out of the backseat of the van, and several x-rays and hours waiting, we discovered that she had torn some tendons in her foot. Refusing the medications we drove home after getting a brace and crutches. After arriving home at midnight, I was sent off to the store to get cabbage to put on it as a "natural remedy."

So... off to the store I went...at midnight...

Being how tired I was I decided to try the closest store first...I drove right up to it only to discover that it was closed. I was a bit disheartened but I decided to try the next closest store, which was the opposite way that I would have gone if I had known that would need to go to this store...but off I went...

Oh...wait...I forgot to mention something KEY...before leaving home my mom decided to have me put on some of this "All Purpose Herbal Salve" and then we prayed.

Ok...back to my story...

The second store...after driving another 15 minutes, I pulled up to the second store and my heart sank...it was all dark...and closed.

The next closest store was another 30'ish minutes away...but mom was in excruciating pain (so I thought) and so off to the store I went.

I arrived at the store at about 1am...and Praise the Lord, it was OPEN!!!

I parked really really close to the front, for I do not like being out late at night AT ALL, and prayed and went into the store. As I walked into the store I was SHOCKED to see this sign...

"PRODUCE DEPARTMENT CLOSED"

I couldn't believe it!!! I had driven around for almost the past hour to get cabbage and now I was at the store and I couldn't even get to the cabbage.

As I walked into the store to see why the produce department was closed I noticed that they were doing something with the floors. Over in the distance I saw a man mopping, and knew that he was my only chance at getting the long-sought for cabbage.

Calling out to him: "Hello sir....sir????.... SIR????? SIR...CAN YOU HELP ME PLEASE????"

He FINALLY heard me...oh, yes, relief filled my heart...now I could get the cabbage and go home, help my mom, and hopefully get some sleep.

I'm sure he was shocked at the sight of a young girl in the store at that hour, wanting something from the produce department. He looked at me a bit puzzled when I asked him if he could PLEASE get me a cabbage. I told him how I had been to two other stores and I really needed a cabbage, after a bit of surprise he kindly put his mop down and went and got me my prized cabbage. I happily checked out and then went to go the van. After checking under the van to make sure no-one was hiding under it, I ran and jumped in and started off towards home.

I pulled in the driveway, poor mom was wondering what was taking me sooo long...and so I told her all the details, not realizing that she looked totally peaceful. After telling her my story I commented that she didn't seem to be in pain...

"Well" she said "The pain was completely gone 15 minutes after you left. The salve took all the pain away."

"Oh..." I said...and fell totally silent...the past hour and a half was spent and she didn't even need the cabbage (and she never used it either.)

The next couple of days we put the salve on a few times each day and by the third day she was walking around without the help of the crutches (totally against her "nurses orders" might I add), the doctor had told her that she'd be on crutches for at least 6 weeks with the type of injury she had.

So...we were quite pleased with the salve, to say the least...

That's my story and it's too late to tell the other one so that will have to wait...

So, I would suggest this salve to anyone. We have it with us at all times.

You can order it on our website at: www.thecreatorsway.com.

If you have any questions, let me know... :)


Enjoy!! :)

Natural Remedies...

We're looking for Natural Remedies that people have personally used and what they have used them for. We'd love to hear from you. :)

Here is one that we discovered not long ago:

Tooth-aches and tooth nerve pain - Take dried oregano and put it in a tea-bag or cloth of some sort and place it directly on the area of pain. My mom had so much pain that she was thinking of going into the doctor for it and I ran down to get some oregano and with-in minutes of putting the dried herb on her tooth her pain was gone.

Feeding her...well....trying to...









Nalani loves holding her and is so good at helping with her.

Getting her all dressed in her new "pink" clothes... all girly :) Auntie Laura had fun getting her new clothes.
