These are my remedies. Do you have remedies to share? I love some new ideas.
- Ola the Guinea Pig - a one kilo therapeutic fur ball and role model - as an outstanding vegetarian with the instincts of a wild animal, but still trusting - and the kindest little guinea pig ever born. I'm a true Ola-chauvinist
- A good cup of tea - works as a sedative, caffeine or not, probably due to so many delightful cream teas in my youth with my London friends
- Water - run through a Brita/Anna mug, to overcompensate for the tea
- Barley tea - when tired of water (lucky me, having the luxury of being able to tire of clean water!)
- Tomato juice - very red, tasty and also bringer of fond memories (and I'm not talking about Bloody Marys here:)
- Other people - they are usually interesting and fun (and I do like my family)
- Perfume, bath salt and essential oils - a nice, flowery scent adds a certain oomph?!?
- The hope of being self contained at some point (but not a nasty know-it-all)
- That wicked, little, non vegetarian spoon of cod liver oil I take every day
