🎏PISCES Season! 🎏

What’s My Name is an herbal tea blend crafted specifically for the Pisces archetype. This warming, immunity-supporting, and movement stimulating combination is designed for the “dreamy fishes” who navigate vast depths of both consciousness and the physical body.

Astragalus & Echinacea: deep immune resilience
Elderflower & Ginger: warmth and gentle stimulation
Chamomile & Oat tops to sooth the nervous system and the spirit.
Rue, Prickly Ash & Licorice: encourage movement and circulation

Pisces is a mutable water sign the final one in the trip around the zodiac. Ruled by Jupiter (traditionally) and Neptune (modernly) governing the 12 House.

The crux of the Piscean paradigm lives in the furthest reaches of the body matching their instinct leads them deep into the psyche, often blurring the lines between dream and reality. This tea honor their physiological dominion over the feet, the toes and the vital fluids that sustain us. From the synovial fluid in our joints to the lymphatic system.

The lymph, the key to our immune system, relies on movement to function, unlike the heart-pumped circulatory system. Much like the Piscean tendency to absorb information from their environment, Piscean are physiologically inclined toward “moist build-ups” in the lymph.

*NOTE: due to the presence of rue, prickly ash and licorice, this blend is not recommended for I Donald who might be pregnant or those taking heart medication.

Eat Your Medicine!
this is a new series of videos I’ll be making to illustrate Food as Medicine. Always vegetarian and herb-y.
Take care of yourself, your loved ones, and your community.
Mushroom Congee
This takes about 45 mins to make & is a delicious, warming, grounding, immune boosting, circulation mover, liver & kidney stimulating food.
(This 45 mins doesn’t included the time your cut mushrooms sit in the window or outside for at least 30 mins to hyper accumulate Vitamin D for you to ingest.)
In the broth
8 cups of water
2 large fingers of ginger thinly sliced & diced
2 fingers of fresh turmeric thinly sliced & diced(these are almost always smaller than ginger ones)
2 garlic cloves thinly sliced & diced
1/2 onion or whole shallot thinly sliced & diced
1/2 serrano pepper & 1/2 jalapeno pepper thinly sliced & diced
2 Tbsp burdock root & 2 Tbsp dandelion root in a teabag or tea ball

Mushroom Prep
6-8 oz oyster mushroom sliced
6-8 oz sh*take mushroom sliced
6-8 oz portobello mushroom sliced
(put all these sliced in a sunny window to hyper accumulate Vit D for at least 30 mins)
then in a bowl, toss with
1 tbsp miso paste,
1/4 cup peanut sauce or tamari sauce,
2 Tbsp corn starch
Let sit while you boil the 8 oz water (unless you have a vegetable broth)
Throw in the bag or ball of burdock & dandelion roots 1 cube of vegetable bouillon (you know your own sodium situation)
Rinse the rice 3 to 4 times massaging the rice with your hands in a bowl to loosen the extra dust & starch. The water should run clean. Let soak for at least 2 hrs, but over night is even better.
The water should well be boiling. Add the rice & stir gently until you reach a boil. Add the minced herbs & veggies. Reduces heat to a medium simmer. Loosely cover & let simmer for 25 mins.
Once you test the rice to make sure its soft and there is a good amount of liquid, stir in the sun tanned & marinated mushrooms. Let cook for another 4 or 5 mins.
Add your toppings and serve
I always use whatever seeds & nuts I have for crunch. I also love green onions, cilantro & peppers

There are lots of plants to help sooth anxiety. But really, the simple act of making a tea can put you on the pathway to finding your personal coping methods for moving through life. Take care of yourselves out there—you’re all worth it!

Herbal London Fog recipe below.

Beesh Don’t Kill My Vibe, anxiety tea is one of the first blends ever created in the Antidote line, we made it upon opening the doors back in 2016. I invite you order one for yourself through my website or DM for greenpoint pickup.

Catnip, milky oat tops, tulsi, gotu kola, passion flower and lavender make up this tea. That’s a veritable powerhouse of nervines💚

Anxiety expresses in countless ways in the emotional and physical body and distinct for each individual…this tea is blended to assuage some more commonly struck areas and is meant to smooth you! But also to introduce you to the idea of honing your understanding of self and plants.

Catnip is utilized here to help with anxiety taking hold in the belly. Milky oat tops to restore frayed myelin sheaths protecting nerve fibers carrying information from one to the other continually. Gotu kola is an ally for mental cognition and promotes relaxation while feeling alert. Lemon balm is a cooling mint nervine that really helps to shine in the world. Tulsi is a delicious Ayurvedic herb that is used for almost everything because it is so soothing, nourishing and anti inflammatory. Lastly, lovely aromatic lavender to brighten everything up spread good through the body.

****For the Beesh Don’t Kill My Vibe version of the classic London Fog:
Bring 8-10 oz water to a bubble. Add 1 tbsp Beesh tea. Cover and let sit off the heat for a few minutes (try for at least 3) strain and add milk of your choice to taste (or 1.5 oz if you want to be exact!) add a bit of honey if you like, but I don’t think it needs it. Enjoy!

I’ve been makin elderberry syrup for years! And I’m not alone…people have been eating and using it for thousands of years here in the americas and it’s been included in European folk medicines since the stone age.

And this change of the season is one of the prime times to get yours from me or make your own—it’s easy!

You can make it as simple or intricately formulated as you desire. Here’s my recipe and I recommend a tablespoon daily to bolster the immune system.💪

2 cups Elderberries
4 fingers fresh peeled and sliced Ginger (or 2 tbsp dried)
2 Cinnamon sticks
Lemon or apple cider vinegar
Cloves are fun
3/4 to 1 cup raw Honey or maple syrup
4 cups good water

2. Tbsp Elecampane
2 Tbsp Reishi
1/2 cup Rosehips
2 Tbsp Mullein
1 tbsp prickly ash

Combine all DRY ingredients with water in a pot and bring to a boil. Then reduce the heat and simmer for 45 minutes. Remove and let sit until warm to cool so you can strain comfortably. Strain using a big sieve and cheesecloth. Then add the honey and apple cider vinegar to taste! Put in jars and store in the fridge for up to a month.
*you could add a cup of brandy or vodka to increase the shelf life.

Black Magic Woman, an herbal tea blend for those under the sign of CANCER🦀♋️✨🌊🌕.

Formulated to support the structure required for the intrepid movement of this house toting sign continually generating love & care under the protection she’s fostered to house those she intuitively likes enough to shelter. There are supremely old-world, mineral rich herbs next to nice and bitter ones that race through to hold it all up under the calming and loving perfume of chamomile.

Chamomile, horsetail, red clover, schisandra, wolfberry, chyrsanthemum, fenugreek, agrimony, mugwort .

Cardinal water sign cancer is the 4th one of the zodiac. She is ruled by the moon and the best evidence of the always moving and sometimes volatile nature of the strength of the moon’s pull is seen in tides of the ocean. She is the cardinal yin sign and as such rules over the membranes that sac off the organs, the breasts, ribs, chest, bone marrow, bladder, pleural cavity and the entire female sexual reproductive system. Patterns of imbalance in cancer may present as excess fluids or growths in the breast and female reproductive tissues. Wet lung and sinus infections, leaky gut and eating disorders.

Black Magic Woman, an herbal tea blend for Cancer. The name is inspired by the Santana song of the same name.

We’ve blended this tea to support the structure required for the intrepid movement of this house toting sign continually generating love & care under the protection she’s fostered to house those she intuitively likes enough to shelter.

Messenger is herbal tea blended for the Gemini archetype. The name is inspired by the song of the same name by Blonde Redhead.

Peppermint, gingko, oat tops, hawthorn leaf and berry, catnip, mullein, licorice & sage make up this comfortably aromatic & soothing blend.

The Gemini twins, third sign of the zodiac, are all about relationships, communication and on good days a most beautiful emergent behavior resulting from a good mutually beneficial pairing. This intellectual master of the rubric is a mutable air sign ruled by mercury and will likely tell us all how & why!

Gemini’s bodily dominion starts at the shoulders and moves through the first couples of the body—arms to fingers & includes the lungs, nerves, sensory receptors, the nervous system. It rules the action of breathing and all the tubes, tunnels & capillaries of the body. It is easy to see the communicative mercurial nature of the nervous system and how that is reflected in the active perceptions of hands and fingers while the parasympathetic nervous system is responsible for continued breathing while sleeping. All these tubes, tunnels, hands & nerves communicating relentlessly.

We’ve got carminative peppermint here to make the windy gemini much more pleasant, highly nutritive & restorative oat straw (nervous system) & mullein (lungs), smooth moving gingko for brain, blood and lung health, licorice has a sweet moistening flavor that gemini needs for their windy driness, sage moves water through salt (another important factor for the driness of the gemini type), hawthorn works on the heart which pumps blood information through those tubes gemini rules and catnip is a nervine with an affinity for the diaphragm.

Would ya just look at how spunky this little lung pot is? I mean c’mon, I die. The elecampane antenna leaves?👽
The garden is starting to talk for herself again and don her clothes for this season’s review🌿👔👞
I call this gorgeous little critter pot the lung bowl…by sheer happenstance, a few of my most versatile lung allies have chosen to thrive in that strange little broken basin.
Elecampane. Althea (marshmallow). Ophiopogon (mondo grass). Platycodon (balloon flower). They love it there, year after year.
It was a chimenea that I loved—but I broke it and couldn’t let it go. It’s not lost on me that it once held fire and directed smoke…pretty ironic for its current form as a repository for lung allies.
We can all change! It’s okay.
Maybe see y’all this Saturday for the first musical show in the hard this season!

This here is a centering, cooling, and grounding tea for the Aries paradigm. Let’s bolster the best of the trail blazing, headstrong, get-it-going traits of this cardinal fire sign.

🌱hibiscus🌱lemon balm🌱nettle🌱wood betony🌱yarrow🌱ginkgo🌱ginger🌱

Aries, as the first sign of the zodiac, rules the bodily domains of the head, skull and cerebrospinal system & some of the muscular system. When the balance shifts with an Aries, we might se patterns of excess, heat & inflammation.

So here we have the gorgeous & cooling red hibiscus & lemon balm, with mineral & protein rich nettles to support the nervous system. Wood betony moves from the brain down the body while yarrow govern the blood & can help to cinch up some patterns of excess by bringing it all to the core. Finally, the panacea effect of ginkgo b***s, though it’s mostly known for its affinity for the brain, all profused with the tasty, spicy ginger, a prime anti inflammatory adaptogenic ally.
