I have been doing a fascinating online course for high sensory persons (HSPs). Did you know that 30 percent of the population is high sensory? Are you one of them?

Did you know that HSPs process the world more deeply and differently from the way others perceive the world? HSPs use our senses to “see” deeply into the fabric of life around us. We use our senses (including our sense of knowing or intuition) _expansively_ to experience a broad range of information.

Growing up, we realized from an early age that others in our family are not having the same empathic experience, nor the sensory range, nor the depth of what we are experiencing. We learn, then, to reject our extra sensory perception and thus reject ourselves in order to fit in and thus we cannot find our true value or place in the world until we come to accept our uniqueness.

If you are a high sensory person, please connect with me and let’s get to know each other better. We need community 🤗

Herbs with antiseptic and anti microbial properties, such as lavender, calendula, chamomile, thyme, oregano and sage, can be used to make a wash for the skin to inhibit the growth of micro organisms. These herbs are skin friendly. Use fresh herbs when available but dry herbs will also work. Simply bring two or three cups of water to a boil, add herbs (total two ounces of fresh herb, half that for dry herbs), turn off heat, cover and let steep until cool. Strain and store liquid in fridge. Use within three days. Can be used for skin irritations and foot soaks.

My sourdough had a wild party over night 😂 One of the secrets to a strong sourdough starter is that, once it has a good base, feed it extra. So if there is one cup of sourdough starter base, feed it one and a half cups of flour and that amount of water also. The original starter will gobble up that extra food and become stronger.

Herbal summer quencher sun tea. Here I used a quarter cup of anti-inflammatory hibiscus 🌺 quarter cup of soothing rose petals 🌹 and two tablespoons of relaxing catnip (all dry herb). Add cool water and let the tea sit in the sun for two hours. Add honey or sugar to taste. The tea will be barely warm from the sun. (Never add honey to a hot drink as it damages the honey.) And did you know that hibiscus is less sour and less bitter if you do a cool brew? That means cool water rather than boiling water.

Do you find that plants speak to you?
I’m fascinated with the potential of herbs to nourish the mind, body and emotions. They speak to me through my senses. Mostly my sense of smell. The smells bring me distant, sometimes ancient, memories and a tingling in my spine which prompt me to delve more deeply into the uses of the plants.
How do plants speak to you? Think about it. Do you get intuitions. Does the spirit of the plant speak to you? Or do the plants speak to you through your senses - maybe your sight, your taste, your sense of smell? Do you hear them whisper? Are you drawn to touch them to receive messages? Share your discoveries with me 😃

Important

Canada is facing a growing healthcare crisis. More than six million Canadians, nearly one in six of us, don’t have regular access to a family doctor. Emergency rooms are overwhelmed. Wait times are increasing. And politicians across all parties are acknowledging that we’re in trouble.

And yet, behind the scenes, a completely contradictory story is unfolding, one that could reduce access to natural health products and practitioners for countless Canadians.

While millions struggle to find a doctor, Health Canada is quietly implementing sweeping new regulations that will reduce, or even eliminate access to many natural health products.

Read our full What's New post to find out how these changes affect you. https://nhppa.org/news/

If you were in charge of tackling Canada’s chronic illness crisis, what would be your top three priorities?

Would cracking down on natural health products make the list?

Health Canada’s priorities are misplaced. Instead of encouraging personal responsibility and preventative health, they are restricting access to natural health products and driving Canadian businesses into the ground.
