HERBAL INHALER Print E-mail

The aromas from this herbal infusion will aid in clearing your stuffy nose.

 

2 quarts water

1/4 cup fresh or 2 tablespoons dried yarrow

1/4 cup fresh or 2 tablespoons dried peppermint

1 tablespoon fresh or 2 teaspoons dried rosemary

1 tablespoon fresh or 2 teaspoons dried thyme

 

Place the water in a saucepan on the stove. Add all of the herbs. Simmer uncovered over low heat for 30 to 45 minutes. This allows the herbal essences to drift through the house. Do not allow the pan's contents to boil dry. To simmer these herbs without having to keep as close an eye on them, place the herbs and hot water in a slow cooker.

Leave it uncovered and set on high. This can be left unsupervised for an hour or two.
