Tips, Tricks & Updates-

Ok. Here's what this last many days has produced by way of 'aha's!!'

TOPICAL Black-Walnut HULL TINCTURE:
I've had a little cyst/pimple thing on my left eye lid for almost a year. In the beginning, I got all bold and squeezed it super-calculatingly. It worked for a few days and it was back. It hasn't gone away with bf&c oil either. Last night, I heated the tip of a teeny needle, put the teeniest pin prick in the top (gotta be super careful when it's your eye lid) and put some Black-Walnut Hull Tincture on my eye lid. Kept my eye shut, so as not to get the stuff in my eye. Once the tincture had dried, I went about the rest of the stuff for the evening. Wait for it...Wait for it...it's gone. I mean, like there was a teeny bit of stuff on it today and I squeezed it, just a teeny bit of residue - and it's gone. Like that.

ASHWAGANDA AND SLIPPERY ELM POWDER TOGETHER
Man, this ashwaganda tastes like *&$%#####. Period. Ain't no mess about it. I'm a soldier and I can drink some sh*t. But, as much as I raise my cup and say, 'it's wood juice, it's cool' - it ain't cool. And as much as I'm loving apples throughout the day, then drinking slippery elm 'porridge' (lol) with apple juice - it's tipping my 'sweet' meter. So, I tried the other night making slippery elm with raw garlic and nutritional yeast (I gleamed from some psycho that didn't know what they were talking about that garlic and slippery elm go well together on some website - they lie). It was horrific. I finished it, with gratitude - but I won't do it again unless it stands between me and winning some enormous prize or something. I've been just doing my slippery elm powder like shots in 4oz. of water. That works miraculously well and is keeping me doing it many times a day rather than him-hawing about having to do it. Voila! Success. Now - what to do about that Ashwahootie taste. I've been pondering what you can add to bitter wood pulp that would make it taste pallettable. I figured - hey - let's kill some birds with these herb stones and I threw 'em in the jar together today. 1 tablespoon of each and it was noticeably better on both parts. Success!! lol

LIVER MORNING DRINK AND KEEPING THE PALETTE LOVE GOING
I love apples. I love garlic. I love olive oil. But man, after like a day - I really just don't care for garlic taste running throughout the rest of my juice action. So, I've been juicing a couple slices of apple, then the garlic then throwing 'em on top of the oil in a small cup and putting it to the side. I juice the rest of the apples. Do the shot of garlic/oil/apple and drink the rest of my yummy apple juice. :)

APPLE JUICE AND YELLOW DOCK (HERBAL IRON) TEA
This is from a few weeks ago but nobody responded to it so I'm posting it again. Revelation: adding your concentrated yellow dock tea to apple juice tastes just like the naughty powdered, instant lipton tea from childhood.
No joke, I don't understand it - but it's fun.

HOT/COLD THERAPY FOR YOUR DRUTHERS
Alrighty, you newer posters don't know this but I've had pretty chronic vaginal pain for ten years now. It's right around the opening, not the vulva and not the actual vagina. There's a ring around the opening that extends around the urethra, all the way around, that vacillates between extreme pain and dull pain. Uny said we need to do hot/cold therapy to the area and although that made sense, trying to figure out how to go about that in the last week has been interesting. There are a lot of women in our world with what's called 'vulvodynia' or 'we don't know why your biscuit hurts but yeah, it does'. It hasn't seemed to get better when I've stayed away from 'high oxalate' foods at all. I think the idea that it's the oxalate foods that are causing the issue is bunk.

So... hot/cold therapy in your druthers. It occurred to me yesterday that we live in a strange world with lots of kinky folks who have already thought of stuff like this and that my engineering efforts can heed to their wackiness and google what they've already figured out - and - they have. Apparently, 'temperature play' is a thing that women are in to. Pyrex toys are what they use. The advice these folks give is that you should never put anything in your druthers that's frozen, cause you'll stick to it like your tongue would to a flag pole. Sound therapeutic? Yeah, not to be either. The answer: pyrex. Never freeze, never microwave. Glass retains it's temperature for some time (which is good in this case with repetitions) so I've done some research on where to find these things. There are some Six Flags versions out there, sure, but there are also just long, tubular pyrex jobbies that'll do it. I figure all women can use this hot/cold therapy. For prolapsed issues, for post-birth issues, for cyst issues, cervical issues, urethra issues - I mean - the list goes on. Having a vagina is a complex job and if we could have a couple of these for hot/cold therapy - think of how much happier your parts would be! I'm bettin' mine are gonna really benefit from this! Hand blown glass and more luxurious models (lol) are quite expensive. I found them for $7-12 in the simple, no bells or whistles design. If anyone feels this would benefit them, pm me and I'll be happy to give you the addresses I found them on!


*I'm currently putting charcoal poultices on my bunion along with my liver at night, so I'll tell ya how that's a goin, once I get many days worth of experience in.
