Herbal Dream Pillows by Jim Long
A fragrant dream pillow tucked into one's pillowcase can conjure dreams that are romantic, exciting, relaxing, soothing, creative, even erotic! Author Jim Long has crafted and marketed dream pillows for more than ten years, and now shares his unique herbal blends in this one-of-a-kind book. Whimsical full-color illustrations of moons, stars, fairies, flowers, herbs, and other dreamlike images make this stunning gift book a dreamy yet practical package. Making Herbal Dream Pillows begins with the history of dream pillows in folk medicine and herbal mythology, and the relationship between fragrance and memory. Subsequent chapters profile twenty-nine aromatic herbs and flowers, and include tips for growing them and combining them in dream pillow mixtures. Step-by-step instructions guide readers in creating pillows, and mixing combinations of herbs to create seventeen different blends. Each blend is specially designed to encourage a different type of dream. Long also includes tips for caring for dream pillows, and instructions for keeping a dream journal to track the pillow's effects.
