LAVENDER FOR EXHAUSTION

Purpose: to clear the day's exhaustion.

Prepare a foot bath with hot water.

Soak both feet till 3 inches above the ankle, so most active
trigger points are covered.

After 5 minutes add 10 drops of Lavender Oil B.S.P., U.S.P.*.

Massage each foot with the other, flex toes both ways, flex 
feet downwards and upwards till the calf and leg muscles are
stretched.

If you have a racquet ball, place a couple in the bath and roll
your arches over these, gently to firmly as needed.

You are likely to feel some tender points, knead these out slowly.
These hold all the day's tension.

Replenish the hot water if it gets to cool.

After 10 to 15 minutes, pull out first one foot and dry with coarse
towel so skin glows ruddy; and similarly process the other foot.

Note: the foot hold many trigger points which co-relate to internal
organs. Get a Reflexology Chart and make yourself familiar with
where these are.

Generally speaking:

* front half of foot = upper half of body
* rear half of foot = lower half of body
* ball of the foot = chest
* arch of foot = abdomen and pelvis
* heel of foot = genital and urinary organs

* the British and United states Pharmacopoeia.
