Institute of Medicinal Herbalists, in the Encyclopedia of Herbal Medicine. In The Complete Medicinal Herbal:
A Practical Guide to the Healing Prop- erties of Herbs, with More Than 250 Remedies for Common Ailments, medi- cal herbalist Penelope Ody writes that when applied to tissues, rosemary and thyme increase circulation and witch hazel increases flexibility. Increased cir- culation delivers more nutrients needed by the cells that are rebuilding. Combining these herbs—arnica,
comfrey, plantain, rosemary, thyme and witch hazel—with a little peppermint leaf for soothing makes a powerful blend to reduce recovery time and heal damaged tendons, ligaments and fascia. The herbs can be decocted in water or blended into a gel for easy application.

BRIEF BOUTS OF YOGA BOLSTER THE BRAIN
ust 20 minutes of yoga postures, breathing and meditation are valuable tools for bolstering mental functioning. A study from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign reports that a single, 20-minute hatha yoga session significantly improved participants’ speed and accuracy on tests of working memory, focus, retention and ability to absorb and use new information. Study participants didn’t get the
J
same positive brain buzz from 20 min- utes of aerobics. The study appeared in the Journal of Physical Activity & Health.
