Scoop 1 tablespoon of herbs and place in 1 cup of water in a pot on the stovetop. Warm water until it is steaming consistently, do not bring it to a boil as that kills the medicinal value. Take pot off stove, place on a hot pad on the table. Lean over the pot, not too closely to avoid burns, and inhale through the nose. Continue for as long as you can handle or until steam is no longer present. Compost the remains.

It is very common for people to go through a detoxification period when switching to a natural deodorant that has zero preservatives! You may experience a rash, this is normal. The armpit is a sensitive place and accumulates a lot of toxins. Use the Healing Salve at night after washing armpits clean. If rash persists after a few days, contact me via email for a plantain oil free of charge. Other store bought natural deodorants still use preservatives which is why you wont go through a detox period with those. This deodorant still has a shelf life of over 1 year even without preservatives.
