I have been ill.
I whined wrote about it a couple of days ago.
I’m on the mend, but battling a hellacious amount of snot. Thankfully I made up some of these shower disks before the germs attacked me so I have them on hand to help de-snot-ify myself.
These are easy to make up and work really well. You may have to tweak the strength for yourself. My first batch was a little weak for my taste, so I added more essential oil.
After my shower last night with one of these I felt like a new person. I could actually breathe out of both nostrils for a couple of hours…
It’s the little things in life.

Hi Krista – stopping over from our newly-formed SITS tribe! I feel for you – a stuffed head is the worst! I like the idea of using something natural to clear a stuffed head. My kids had bad colds right after Christmas break and I bought a 10-pack of tissues. Three of the packs were infused with Vicks, unbeknownst to me. They smelled up the whole house! I hated to do it, but I threw them away. I couldn’t take the smell. Hope you feel better! Off to follow you on social media 🙂

Love your photo, too. I also have oil of red thyme which might be good. I may try this!! Mom

Hello Krista. I have just gotten over a cold and I would have greatly appreciated having something like this around. I have also began to get more into all natural products and creating products like this myself. I look forward to reading more from your blog. I’m a part of your SITS tribe.

Oh I love the smell of Vicks. Menthol, Eucalyptus, etc. I love it. I can’t wait to try these. I’ve had the worst sinus headache today and I’m trying my best to keep all the yuck from going into a sinus infection. These shower disks my just do the trick!
