Emotional and Physical healing with the family physician kit

We had 2 wonderful conference calls about healing emotionally and physically with the family physician's kit.  These conference calls have lots of great information, I highly recommend everyone tune in! Click below for an MP3 audio of these calls. Feel free to fast forward the beginning, its a slow start.

We will also create an archive of our conference calls on the right side of the page.

Burns

I was cooking yesterday and I burned my finger really badly. I could see a blister starting to form within the first minute.  I quickly pulled out my lavender and diluted helichrysm (its too expensive to use full strength for little things like this) and put it on.  It still felt like it was burning though and although the pain was reduced, it wasn't gone.  After about 5 minutes I decided to try peppermint.  That did it!  It absolutely was completely better immediately. It hasn't been at all sore since then. I can barely tell where the burn was only 24 hours later!  I couldn't remember which finger it was on and had to closely inspect it to find the spot. 

Everythingessential.me, is my favorite online source to treat and help with all sorts of health problems. For  burns, it recommends some of the following:

Oils, blends & products recommended:

Oils & Blends: Frankincense, helichrysum, lavender, melaleuca, peppermint, white fir
Essential oils based products: 
Also consider: Geranium, marjoram, OnGuard
Suggested protocols:
The quicker, the better. Cover the affected area with lavender oil. Then, if possible, cool the area with peppermint or a cool compress. If the burn area is too sensitive to apply the oils directly, then use a water spritz with lavender and peppermint.
  If blistering occurs or the skin is compromised use frankincense or melaleuca to prevent infection.
  White fir is also recommended to minimize pain and prevent infection.
  As healing begins use helichrysum to promote tissue regeneration and prevent scarring.
Special Precautions: Severe burns should receive professional medical attention. Do not use “hot” oils on a fresh burn.
