During the winter it can be hard to escape that shivery feeling that happens when you get too cold. A good immediate remedy for this is to wrap yourself up in a douvet and stick a hairdryer up it, (making sure the air flow is not restricted) until you feel warmed up.Colds are the body's escape mechanism. When the whole system is overloaded it crashes. The body stresses out and the immune system drops its threshold. The nose releases toxic wastes in the form of mucous and the body often aches and feels exhausted.
Pay attention to what your body is saying because an unchecked cold can become far more serious if you keep it buried.If you are one of those people who can tell when you have a cold coming on, then it can be stopped, or at least minimised, in several ways. Firstly, rest is essential. There is no way your body will self-heal in a stressful situation. If you have to work, take it easy or delegate a bit more. Lemon juice, rose hips, parsley (not if you're pregnant) and fresh orange all contain vitamin C, so take them.Some colds can actually be completely stopped dead by gently sniffing a mixture of lemon juice and warm water up your nose, if you are brave enough.
Pumpkin seeds or sunflower seeds contain zinc which is important in cold prevention so take some of those. Otherwise its time to sweat those built up toxins right out through the skin. Start with a peppermint tea and take some garlic or garlic capsules. Then boil a large onion in milk for an hour, eat it, and drink the milk. Follow on with a steaming cup of lemon juice, honey, cinnamon and grated ginger which will stimulate circulation and sweating.
Enjoy it in a mustard footbath which will also warm up the blood - use multiple and layered remedies and take them as an opportunity to treat yourself.For a mustard footbath, take 1 tsp. yellow powder mustard and one of household soda (if you have hard water) and put them in a deep basin with some water as hot as you can stand. Keep your feet and lower legs in for about ten minutes, topping the bath up with fresh hot (not boling) water. Dry off, put on thick socks and climb into a freshly warmed bed, the earlier the better..

Flax seed will add a pleasant nutty taste to any recipe. The attractive, round reddish-brown seeds of flax add flavor, extra texture and good nutrition to your breads, cakes, muffins, and other baked goods. That's why flax has been used for many years in multi-grain cereals and snack foods. Flax seed also will give you many vitamins that are otherwise hard to get.
When cooking, be aware that flax seed can be used instead of the oil and shortening called for in a recipe.
When substituting flax seed in a recipe, use a three to one ratio.
For example, if a recipe asks for one-third of a tablespoon of oil, use one tablespoon of flax seed.
Flax seed is also very easy to store.
Unlike seeds from other plants, flax seed can be stored for up to a year.

Flower Bulbs: Nature?s Greatest Gift
Flowers are one of nature's greatest gifts. Their scent, their colors, their shapes? everything about flowers is beautiful. A colorful, cheerful flower can brighten even the darkest day. Even more enjoyable than looking at flowers, though, is growing them. Flowers can be bought from pots and replanted.
They can also be grown from clippings. However, one of the most popular ways of growing flowers is from bulbs and seeds.Growing flowers outdoors from bulbs is simple; in fact, it is so easy that it's almost foolproof. One of the most important aspects is timing. Bulbs need to be planted about six weeks before the first frost. Bulbs must be planted in an area with good drainage and a lot of sun.
Make sure the soil is loose, and then plant the bulbs about six inches in the ground. (Package directions may vary depending on type and location; when directions differ, following your package.) Try to place the bulb in the hole with the pointed end facing up. Cover the hole and water....

How to plant your wildflower seeds.
The best time to sow your flower seeds is in the Fall or the Spring. In warm climates like Southern California, Florida, and South Texas flower seeds can be sown anytime after August. Just make sure the flowers will not be blooming in the hot summer season. In colder climates you can also sow your annual seeds in the late fall but make sure it is after the temperatures are below 45 degrees so the flower seeds don't start to germinate until next spring. If you are sowing perennials they should be started in the spring or fall when the temperatures are between 55 and 70.
To prepare the soil for sowing your wildflower seeds you should start by taking out whatever weeds and unwanted vegetation you have in the area. It is easier before you plant. Use roundup or pick the weeds by hand. Get all the roots
It is best to plant the seeds when the average temperature is 55to 70 degrees and just before the rainy season. Which is usually Spring in most of the...
