Older adults who were exposed to seven different scents—one each night through a bedside diffuser—for six months showed a remarkable 226% improvement in cognitive performance, according to a study published in Frontiers in Neuroscience.

While the fragrance intervention was simple and low-effort, its impact was significant: participants demonstrated stronger verbal memory and measurable changes in a key brain pathway involved in learning and decision-making. This suggests that consistent nighttime olfactory enrichment may be a powerful, noninvasive way to support brain health as we age.

So nice to connect with lovely people through my business. My products are made from roots and leaves, most of which I grow. I do it because I am privileged to be in a situation whereby I can. It’s so nice when people express their appreciation.

Sasha from Canada bought some of my Equine Balm for his pregnant cow. She had a fractured leg. According to the vet the outlook was not hopeful.
Hapy ending to the story as you can read below:

Hi Carolyn,
Tuesday marked Maple's 8 weeks since her fracture. She's not brand new but almost I'd say (A little rotation to the inside) I used your product even if she was pregnant. I was gonna try everything to save her even if it meant not having her calf. Luckily, she had a healthy baby boy Wednesday.

That's a pretty good result for one jar of Equine Balm costing $40!!!

Yesterday I made a batch of AHH balm…..ahh, still on a high!
Infused St John’s Wort, clove, calendula, rue, yarrow…. All in certified organic olive oil! Then a magic mix of essential oils including Kunzea the Australian oil proven to relieve pain. Also beeswax from Beeman Honey & Beekeeping Supplies. The scent of most of these ingredients is gorgeous but combined it is …. next level!
A perfect gift for anyone but especially for someone convalescing. Someone who needs TLC in the gentlest possible way. Rub on to temples, forehead, hands, feet ……

Today I went to Bryant’s organic produce shop and set up a little table with my products. It was lovely to spend time in amongst all the amazing produce and handcrafted, and upcycled goods as well as art, not to mention lovely people! It’s worth a visit if you are in Rosebud on a Thursday, Friday or Saturday 9 till 1.

To all my lovely Comfrey Comfort Massage Balm users….. my product range has expanded to include a much wider variety of products….. oils, balms and flower essences.…. Hence my name change.…. Apothecary Chorale.
A chorale is a complex piece of music usually with four part harmony, a hymn-like tune. What I aim for with my products is that the combinations hit the sweet spot…. They SING! They are harmonious!
Hence the name!
(Also Chorale used to be my nick name 😊)

Hello to all my lovely customers and supporters. I decided to do a little upgrade on my labeling and marketing. A few more products happening and more to come ....
