Happy self care Sunday ๐
How are you looking after yourself today?
My sinuses are really inflamed today and I feel like Iโve got a head cold and my head weighs about ten ton ๐ I donโt have a cold (chronic condition) but I feel yuck ๐ญ
So Iโve just had some plant medicine to help me feel better ๐ Iโve done some lymphatic draining on my face and sat and done a lovely meditation with an Australian teacher I studying with just now.
I believe you need to work on the inside, on the whole body, the soul to help healing the body not just the symptoms.
Plant medicine is my first aid kit. Ceremonial cacao for heart healing. Hawthorn to help the physical heart (both flower and berry), feverfew, borage, mint, rosemary, yarrow, calendula, nettle, comfrey and many more. Then there is the Ayurvedic herbs ashwagandha, shatavari, Brahmi, triphala and turmeric to name but a few.
How do you take your plant medicines? Tea, tincture, culinary herb, oxymel, syrup? Or through the skin?
Iโm interested in how you incorporate them into your life.
My wisdom for the day - if you can eat it you can put it on your skin! Hence why i make herbal oils using evoo. ๐
Have a beautiful blessed day ๐ฅฐ
