SELF HEAL, (also known as ALL HEAL) is used to Aid Health. In Times of Sickness: When someone in the home is ill, make a tea of SELF HEAL, strain it, and sprinkle or spray the liquid around the room and on the sick person. This is done both to relieve the afflicted one and to keep the sicknes...s from affecting visitors or family members. For Better Health: Place SELF HEAL in a white flannel bag with Angelica Root and Golden Seal, dress the bag with Holy Oil or Blessing Oil, and sew it into the mattress of a loved one who suffers chronic pain, serious disease, or acute illness. A Mojo Hand for Health: A pinch of SELF HEAL, a whole Angelica Root , and a pinch of Sandalwood, in a red bag will keep the bearer in good health.
