No matter when you get on a plane, it often feels like all the bin space has already been claimed by your fellow passengers. To make sure we can always get our bags in the bins, we carry sachets for luck and success in all our carry-on luggage.

To make the sachet, you'll need a small piece of fabric, a piece of string, and a few dried herbs from your kitchen pantry. You can use whatever herbs you want here (be sure they are dried!), but we recommend basil, rosemary, bay leaves, chamomile, and cloves, because you are likely to already have a couple of these at your house. Crush all the herbs up and place them on your piece of fabric. Lift the four corners of the fabric up and tie your sachet shut while saying:
My journeys shall be easy and stress-free.
All the space I need shall come to me!

Place one sachet in every bag for which you need overhead space.
