It’s cold tonight and so very snowy, and central Alberta is full of different ideas about this!

There was a time where I’d have given almost anything to dodge winter, but as time passed, I came to understand that every season has a message. Winter’s message is: slow down, turn inwards, curl up and tell stories. Enjoy the fire (or furnace 😉) and find time with yourself…maybe even pour a bath!

So many of us don’t get much time to ourselves, but this season is a gift; a reminder to stay home and get cozy. You don’t owe the commercial industry anything; you can chill my friends!

My cute little bath salt tubes can help you with that lesson. They smell awesome and bathing with the herbs is so healing. And if you’re a person who doesn’t have time to clean the tub? No probelmo. I’ve got little baggies for ya.

So take a deep breathe out.
The season of rest is here.
Nature’s got your back. 💛

Tis the season for Immune Support, Throat Spray and Cough Syrups- a little care goes a long way at this time of the year!

⚕️Immunis Tincture- a traditional alcohol extraction for short term, acute immune support

❄️ Throat Spray- a sweet and cool dual extract to help gently soothe through the day (a personal fave)

🍯 Cough syrups- honey and glycerine syrups infused with herbs known clinically and traditionally for cough relief; one to soothe in the evening, one to help you expectorate/cough it out by day

IMMUNIS TINCTURE
Just weighed out the herbs for this batch: a short-term, first-signs formula for when the throat scritches, the glands flex, or the body shifts into early defence. We’ve got:
🌿 Echinacea angustifolia
🌿 Elderberries and flowers
🌿 Oregano leaf and flowers
🌿 Goldenrod
🌿 Ginger root
🌿 Yarrow
This blend brings together plants that waken the immune system’s front line, move heat, open the pores, clear early congestion, encourage circulation, and support the lymph as the body responds.

Nothing heroic: just classic herbs working together in the first days and hours of imbalance.

Slow made. Seasonal. Herbal medicine at the ready. …Speaking of ready, give me a month and this batch will be up for grabs; right in time for hectic days ahead! 🌬️

Samhain🕯️🖤

The tradition of Samhain is as ancient as the Druids themselves. In Irish lore, today was the day to honour the ancestors and the spirits of those who had gone on before. The ancients believed that now, halfway between harvest and winter, was when the veil between the ethereal and the physical was thinnest…so spirits dwelling in the liminal space could move more easily between the worlds.

This year, I found it fitting that Samhain also marks a halfway point in my studies towards Death Doula certification. Death, in our culture, is often shyed away from; and fair enough, death is a very hard part of life. Conversations about it are something we might avoid and even fear. I’m seeking to understand our relationship to death more deeply, to learn to speak about it more openly, and in time, to hopefully help others grow more comfortable with its presence, too.

So with that, Happy Samhain and blessed day of the Dead, my friends! May we honour our ancestors and those who have already embarked upon the mysterious journey of death, and may we make space to contemplate the shared destiny of every single one of us who are bound to follow.

Handmade “Vicks”, but better!

Small-batch Respiratory Relief Balm is ready, just in time for the cool season. This traditional chest balm combines bright camphor and peppermint to help open the chest and clear the airway- plus the added support of oils infused with eucalyptus, thyme, mullein, and oregano.

It’s the comfort of those childhood chest rubs from Mom… with a little extra herbal help.🌿

When I started exploring herbs, I was looking for something honest; something tangible and something intentional. I think that’s what a lot of us are searching for.

The days go so fast, sometimes we don’t even have time to know what our intentions are. When I came to herbalism, I knew I needed something that wasn’t rushed or performative. Something that made me pause…something that endured, unlike so many of the fleeting things shaping modern life.

What I found here was a reminder that nature takes its time and keeps its promises:

The leaves let go.
The snow falls.
Spring always comes.
The sun rises everyday, like it or not.
And the plants- they always grow.
Everything that is born, dies.
And in between, it changes.

Transformation is constant in nature, and it’s quiet. It doesn’t rush. It doesn’t worry.

Plants adapt, shed, shift, and renew. And I think a huge part of plant medicine is learning how we can gently do the same.
