Snore rrelieving Gel in a jar
The great thing is that this isn’t JUST helpful for snorers (and
their spouses!)…it can also help clear stuffy, irritated nasal passages
of any kind! So if your family tends to get colds frequently or has
allergy issues, you’ll definitely want to whip up a couple of these
jars.
Here’s how to make them…
Heat 3/4 cup of water in a small pot or pan over medium-high heat. Add 1 Tbsp of salt, and stir until the salt dissolves completely.
Slowly add the contents of the 2 packets of gelatin to the water, and stir until dissolved.
Remove the mixture from heat and add the remaining 1/4 cup of water.
To Use:
At bedtime, open the jar and hold it near your nose. Take a few deep breaths through your nose, then leave the jar open on your nightstand while you sleep.

Snore Relieving Gel in a Jar
Ingredients- 2 packets unflavoured gelatin
- 1 Tbsp salt
- 1 cup water, divided
- 2 4 oz mason jars
- Marjoram, peppermint, eucalyptus and lavender essential oils
- Food coloring (optional)
Heat 3/4 cup of water in a small pot or pan over medium-high heat. Add 1 Tbsp of salt, and stir until the salt dissolves completely.
Slowly add the contents of the 2 packets of gelatin to the water, and stir until dissolved.
Remove the mixture from heat and add the remaining 1/4 cup of water.
Pour the liquid carefully into your two 4oz mason jars, then add the essential oils. Add 5 drops each of marjoram, peppermint, eucalyptus and lavender
essential oils, for a total of 20 drops in each jar. Add a drop or two
of food coloring too, if you’d like (just to make it a bit more visually
interesting.)
Place the jars into your fridge to cool and solidify, then cover with a lid.To Use:
At bedtime, open the jar and hold it near your nose. Take a few deep breaths through your nose, then leave the jar open on your nightstand while you sleep.
Marjoram essential oil relieves tension and relaxes muscles, promoting restful sleep. Peppermint and eucalyptus
essential oils are excellent at reducing inflammation in the nasal
passages, which helps clear the airways and eliminate snoring. And
finally, lavender essential oil is very relaxing, helping to carry you off to a restful, snore-less sleep. :-)
(As with all gelatin products, higher temperatures can cause this gel
to liquify. If this happens, no worries! Just stick the jar back in the
fridge until it has solidified again.)
