If you are like many, and suffer from occasional headaches, you know that one of the best things you can do is to close your eyes and rest in a dark, quiet room. Place your head on an Herbal Headache Pillow and that headache will be gone in no time. Here is how you can make your own Herbal Headache Pillow and save some money while helping your head.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Two handkerchiefs or bandanas, or a small pillow case.
• 2 oz dried rose petals
• 2 oz dried lavender
• 2 oz dried wood betony
• 2 oz dried, crushed cloves
• 2 oz dried marjoram
• 2 oz dried mint (any kind will do)

1. 1
   

   Take two men's handkerchiefs, bandannas or a pillow case and sew the edges tight to make sure the ingredients don't leak out. Make sure to leave a small opening so you can fill your pillow with the herbs.

2. 2
   

   Take all of the ingredients and mix them together. I use a ziploc bag to mix it up well. Squeezing the ingredients will help release the aroma .

3. 3
   

   Fill the pillow or pillow case with the herb mixture and then sew the pillow up tight.

4. 4
   

   Lay your head on the pillow and breathe slowly and deeply.
