If your digestion feels off lately… you’re not alone.
Bloating after meals.

Sluggish digestion.

That “heavy” feeling that lingers longer than it should.
One of the simplest herbal tools for this? Digestive bitters.
Bitters work by activating receptors on the tongue that signal your body to:
🌿 produce digestive enzymes
🌿 stimulate stomach acid
🌿 support liver and bile flow

🌿 help food move through the body more efficiently
The result? Digestion that actually does its job.

The easiest way to use them:
✨ take a few drops 10–15 minutes before meals
✨ let the bitter taste activate your digestive system
It’s one of the oldest herbal traditions for a reason.

Our Digestive Bitters are available online and in-store—and if digestion has been feeling slow or uncomfortable, this is one of the best places to start.

Your body knows when the seasons change.

After winter, many people notice:
• lower energy
• sluggish digestion
• feeling heavy or stagnant

Spring is traditionally the season for tonic herbs—plants that gently support the body as it shifts from winter into the lighter energy of spring.

Our Spring Tonic Tea was crafted for exactly this moment.
This blend helps support:
🌿 liver and detox pathways
🌿 circulation and movement
🌿 gentle daily cleansing
🌿 overall seasonal renewal

Think of it as helping the body shed winter and step into the new season feeling clearer and lighter.

Drink it:
✨ in the morning to start the day
✨ or mid-afternoon for a gentle reset

Our Spring Tonic Tea is available online and in-store, so you can start supporting your body through the seasonal transition right away.

Sacred Bloom Plant Oil Embodiment Circle

with Andrea Sweeting

Sunday, March 29th, 6-8 pm  |  $20

Join Andrea Sweeting for this dedicated gathering to land back in our bodies and weave connection through our community. Together we will work with a sacred plant oil blend to reconnect body and soul through the spiritual bridge of fragrance.

Fragrance has been honored throughout history and across cultures as a way to attune the mind and body to frequencies of healing, receptivity, sensuality, and divine guidance. In this circle, we will awaken the sensual body alongside the spring wildflowers—reaching toward the light, softening into pleasure, and gently exploring the more tender and taboo parts of ourselves.

We will discuss the plants in our oil blend, their spiritual histories and gifts, followed by a guided meditation and anointing practice with the oil. The gathering will close with reflective journaling and an optional group share, creating space to root intentions, embody desire, and dream new seeds into being.

Andrea Sweeting is an intuitive guide and community healing facilitator who uses a combination of tarot, astrology, intuitive mediumship and mythology to help you gain insight into a deep wisdom that lives within. These various oracular traditions help us build a living relationship with our patterned cosmos. Her work helps bring soul and body back into conversation by strengthening our connection with the more than human world, and healing this disconnect within ourselves and our communities.

Spring has a way of asking the body to reset.

After months of heavier foods and slower winter rhythms, many people feel ready for herbs that support movement, cleansing, and nourishment.

That’s where Burdock comes in.

This deep-reaching root is traditionally used to support:
🌿 liver function
🌿 lymphatic movement
🌿 healthy skin
🌿 gentle metabolic balance

Burdock works slowly and steadily — nourishing the body while encouraging natural detox
pathways.

Our Herb of the Month is Burdock, available:
✨ in-store
✨ online
✨ and in our bulk herb section
If you’ve been looking for a supportive herb to work with this spring, this root is a beautiful place to start

One of the things that makes Golden Poppy different from many apothecaries is how personal herbal medicine can be here.

You’re not limited to pre-made formulas (though we have plenty of those). If you know the herbs you love or have worked with an herbalist before, you can customize your own tincture blend right here in the shop.

Our herbalists can help you:
🌿 Build a formula tailored to your needs
🌿 Adjust herbs as your body shifts
🌿 Create a blend that truly works for you

And the best part?

Once we create your tincture, we can keep the formulation on file, so when you’re running low you can simply come back for a refill of the exact same blend.

It’s herbal medicine that evolves with you — not something you have to start over with every time.

Stop by the apothecary or reach out online if you’d like help building your next formula. Our herbalists are always happy to guide you.
