Wisdom & Wildness Wednesday

***Wild Plants 🌱 coming up everywhere!
The Wisdom piece / peace ☮️ is using them with great reverence for their Medicine, Nourishment, and BodyMindSpirit Magic.
It’s ALL Magic, Nature that is.
You ARE Nature!

Just a very few that I’ve seen in my yard and the Woods. This list could be 100+ Plants 🌿 long!

🌱Dandelion: liver love, intestinal microbial balance, constipation, cancer

🌱Leeks: Spring cleaning of the Winter stagnant gut, goodbye parasites, constipation, minerals, Spring vitamin C.

🌱Trillium: astringent, skin wounds, multiple women’s health purposes… ***DO NOT PICK, they are protected.

🌱Stinging Nettles: nutritive food for every body cell, allergies, nerve healing both internally and externally, skin health

🌱Blood 🩸 Root: cancer, warts & skin growths, respiratory health
ALSO a protected plant, ***do not pick.

🪻Violets: Spring vitamin C, cough, sore throat, move lymph and reduce swelling.

Nature’s Medicine is
Nourishing &
Balancing to BodyMindSpirit

I’m forever grateful for being exposed to my Grampa Youmell’s self taught Herbalism.
His Plant Medicine habits “role modeled” good habits and inquisitive mind about true healing ❤️‍🩹 in balance with Nature.

***Wild Plant Harvesting:
1) Take only 5-10% of a wild patch of any plant.
2) Do not go back to that patch again this season / year.
3) The patch needs time to restore the plants you harvested.
4) Nature’s garden does not have someone coming to replant everything like a cultivated garden. When you eat all your planted carrots 🥕, you replant them each year.
5) If you wipe out, “clear cut OR clear dig” an entire patch of a Wild Plant… that’s it. It’s gone and maybe forever gone.

Medicine & Magick Manuscript Monday.

Eggs 🥚, yolks 🍳, books 📚, butter 🧈, and beer 🍻 OH MY.

What do these things have to do with each other????

I’ve been on a “real” (as in not the fake s**t made in factories) food health & healing journey my entire life.
When I discovered the profound difference between grocery store eggs and
Local
Organic
Pasture raised eggs 🍳
There was no going back.

The bright orange 🧡 yolks instead of pale yellow 💛 (somewhere between the beer can yellow and early spring butter yellow)…
This color difference SCREAMS about HUGE nutritional / nourishment differences.

Feed your body WELL.
Your food choices fuel the building and regeneration of
Every
Single
Body Cell.

Your body cell health is what heals you OR degenerates you to illness 🤢😵‍💫🤕 and death ☠️.

Ya wanna be Vibrant & Vital As F*k?
Take care of yourself cuz absolutely NO ONE else will.

Necessary, Truthful, & Kind Words????
🤷‍♀️ Definitely truthful.
If you need a kick 🦵 in the ass 🫏 to take better care of yourself, then, yes, necessary.
Kind?!?! 🤷‍♀️ Again, you decide.

If you feel like s**t 💩 MOST or ALL of the time and you decide to change how you nourish BodyMindSpirit… you may come back and tell me my words were kind.
TOUGH 💪 HEALING ❤️‍🩹 LOVE 💗

Wisdom & Wildness Wednesday.

The Wildness, 🌲☀️🥾⛰️👣🌙🌳
I will NOT give up.
The Wisdom… plant 🌱 medicine prevention.

Ticks… don’t get me started because my mouth 👄 sets on Fire 🔥🤬❤️‍🔥.

I picked off 10 ticks, crawling on me, yesterday.
Not attached.
Only 4 of them so far this year.

I get asked,
“Do you take preventative doxy after an attached tick.”
I do not. I try to protect my gut micro-biome 🦠 as I’m from the era when kids got handed antibiotics like they were harmless. That’s probably still the case… Moms, any comments?

I’ve not had lyme.
I have had anaplasmosis. It was awful, I thought I might die. I took doxy for 3+ weeks.
I have two friends who have cleared lyme and anaplasmosis without antibiotics. I was so terribly sick and unable to take care of myself that I probably would’ve allowed someone to put me in a bathtub full of doxy and hand me a straw.

Spring & Autumn are the worst tick times. 🌱⏰🍁
Yes, they are definitely around all Summer ☀️ but not as prevalent.

I have my AM & PM Herbal 🌿 cocktail 🍸 🍹 that I take for 2 weeks after an attached litter F-er.
Sometimes the 2 weeks overlap into 4-5 weeks because of another little F-er.

I do believe everyone must be humbly vigilant:
⚠️ check self carefully after being outside, and I’m outside a lot all day long
⚠️ check yourself every night before going to bed, literally every nook, crack and cranny of your body
⚠️ become super sensitive to the way your body feels inside and out, so you know when something’s crawling on you and you can feel them as soon as they attach. To me this feels like an acupuncture needle when it hits that zing, zap sweet spot.
⚠️ dry brush the skin, wet brush in the shower. Gently, you don’t have to go after yourself like you’re a dirty pot with a Brillo pad.
⚠️ vinegar skin wash. Ticks do not like vinegar. I also recommend this Wash for post menopausal women, but that’s another story.
Do I shower immediately after coming inside? No, rarely ever. I also don’t strip my clothes off immediately. I’m inside outside way too much during the day.
⚠️ Doxy or herbs for prevention: you decide. Keep yourself happy, healthy, and immune STRONG. 💪

PS why is there not a tick emoji?

Processed foods = declining health

Clearly what I’m promoting here is Health.
What happens in regards to everything with your body when you get rid of processed foods,
that’s THE Magic 🪄💖✨.
