They're here!!

My love for elder keeps growing each year. This year, once again, she has stepped forward to be my greatest protectress. As my daughter starts nursery and brings home all kinds of viral goodies for our immune systems to get to know, its elder I turn to each time to stop mama from getting ill herself.

Elderberry. Antiviral magic.

I make tincture. I make a honey syrup. And I use them in my Immune Tune Up tonic that is for sale on my website.

Medicine from my over grown wild heart to yours.

This week, I've been gathering herbs from the garden to make herbal smoke bundles. I wrap mugwort, southernwood and sage. The bundles will dry and be on sale on my website and at Christmas Fairs this winter. It feels strange to be making things for Christmas in the height of summer. It also feels complete, like I'm walking in the footsteps of ancestors who's life and health depended on gathering and preserving plants as food and medicine to store and get them through the winter. I love herbalism because it connects me to our ancestors through the soil and ever cycling seasons.

Taking a moment with meadowsweet to taste the sweetness of life.

Now flowering in a field or hedgerow near you.

This is a wonder herb for the digestive system. Drinking the tea can help balance out acidity in the stomach. It was a herb that helped me with severe morning sickness when I was pregnant.

Meadowsweet is also an antinflammatory and pain reliever. The drug salicin, that we know as aspirin, was derived from studying the salicylic acid from meadowsweet flower buds.

Harvest flowers and leaves for tincture and to dry for tea.

A day with majestic linden trees today. Such a treat to gather honey scented lime blossom in the blazing sunshine.

Lime blossom tea is a wonderful calming brew to help sleep or to regulate blood pressure.

I use it in my Hug in a Mug tea blend that soothes frayed nerves.

Lime reminds us to take a breath and relax.

Now the house smells of honey and I'm off to embrace sweet rest myself.

Oxblood coloured fingers can only mean one thing..

Oxblood coloured fingers can only mean one thing... The St John's Wort harvest!

☀️☀️☀️☀️

I'm delighting in collecting jars of sunshine today.

☀️☀️☀️☀️

This herb brings us the sun all year round.
Famous as a mood stabiliser. It's a great herb to tincture now and then work with in the winter months when you feel blanketed by cloudy days, lethargy or brain fog.

☀️☀️☀️☀️

St John's wort is strong liver medicine, so speeds up your metabolism. Care should be taken if you are on medication as this metabolism change can affect the levels of medication in your body . Consult your herbalist for guidance. 😉
