Carmelite water, a.k.a. Klosterfrau Melissengeist (not really water but high % alcohol with a bunch of herbal extracts) has always been very popular as a body rub for aches and pains or internally diluted in a cup of tea to calm the nerves, settle the stomach and whatever ails might befall the human mind and body.
I am going to play around with some essential oils from the same herbs and ordinary vodka (the high % alcohol is only required for the herbal extract) to see if I can create something similar.

"You shouldn’t make the effort to read over those [letters] you send me. I never reread mine. If some word is missing, put it in, and I will do the same here with yours. The meaning is at once clear, and it is a waste of time to reread them unnecessarily."

In this Sunday's gospel, we read that John the Baptist saw the Spirit come down from heaven and remain on Jesus; in a similar way, St Elizabeth of the Trinity begs the Spirit to come upon her and create "a kind of incarnation of the Word."

May the most holy, most sacred, most adorable,
most incomprehensible and ineffable Name of God
be forever praised, blessed, loved, adored
and glorified in Heaven, on earth,
and under the earth,
by all the creatures of God,
and by the Sacred Heart of Our Lord Jesus Christ,
in the Most Holy Sacrament of the Altar.
Amen.

"I thrill with emotion when I think of it—at Benediction on the Feast of the Epiphany, He suffered Himself, in His measureless mercy, to be carried in my unworthy hands. Judge if I did not tremble, as I placed for Exposition on the Altar, the Creator of the Universe, held in my feeble hands… O, love of God!"
