Lemon, Mint, Lavender Healing Water


Use intuition for the measurements, you'll know what works best for your intent.

Ingredients:

Fresh lemon slices
Fresh mint leaves (on stems or not, doesn't matter)
Dried Lavender flowers
Pot of water
Mason Jar with Lid

Procedure:

The best way to enhance this water is to say prayers or chants that are meaningful to your purpose while you work, you can cast a circle if you wish. Fill a stove top pan with water and add the lemon, mint and lavender and boil until there is a nice fragrance coming from the water and the water begins to take on a pinkish color. I used a slotted spoon to scoop out the larger herbs, then I used a coffee filter to strain the rest. This worked great because the lavender won't get through, but watch out for the filter to break on you. This happened to me.

To use, add the water to a bath and meditate on it's intentions. If you are not using the water right away, store it in the refrigerator for no more than 3 to 5 days.

Properties:

Please do your own research on the herbs, there may be additional metaphysical properties that I haven't listed.

Lemon: longevity, purification, energy
Mint: healing, protection, refresh
Lavender: sleep, protection, longevity, purification, happiness, peace, relaxation, calming nerves
