Nausea

An Account of the Sami p. 132

Nausea

“Nausea means that the person feels like vomiting very often and very severely. And a remedy for this is to vomit, or to measure a person’s belt with a finger span, the afflicted person’s belt by degrees, counting backwards from nine to one. And three times must one count this way and measure the person’s belt. And then this ailment, if it is there, will be cured."
