Little info if you are one to use sage or grow it!

Well, I mean, not really,there's just something many of you likely don't know about her.
•
She's not a Sage in any way, shape,or form😳
•
In fact, Garden Sage(Salvia officinalis),is a MINT!
•
True sages are in the Asteraceae (Daisy)family & most are extremely harmful to the liver if used internally.
•
Okay so now that we know that little bit of a secret what can we use Garden Sage for besides a nice potato soup eh?
•
So many things!
•
This lady is my go to choice for:
•
🌿Sore throat's!
•
👉Made into a simple tea or infused into honey she'll stop that pain no prob & is also pretty good for coughing!
•
🌿Got a wet fever that just won't break?
•
👉No problem she's gana get your blood flowing better to cool you off & dry up those fever sweats!
•
🌿Bleeding too heavy during your moon time?
•
👉She's got you covered & can slow down your flow while even giving some relief to cramps!
•
🌿Got an upset stomach?Horrible gas?Can't stop sh****ng?
•
👉She's gana calm that stomach, dispell that gas,& help slow down your pooping that has you making promises to God that you'll never do "xyz again" if this could please just stop🤣
•
🌿Ready to dry up that b**b milk?
•
👉As a tea she's awesome at drying up our milk especially if we pair her with a tight bra. I personally made enough milk for twins & when I decided enough was enough with her help it only took me WEEK! to dry out each time!
•
🌿Sweat too much?
•
👉Are you sensing a theme here yet?She dries out all things excessive moisture,this can even include over active perspiration!
•
🌿Gata wound you'd like to dry out?
•
👉Topically she's great for wound healing with her many antimicrobial/bacterial properties, I particularly like her for puncture type wounds!
•
How do I use her?
•
👉Tea from dried leaf
•
👉Tincture from fresh leaf
•
👉Infused honey with fresh leaf
•
👉Cooking with dried or fresh
•
👉Infused oil from dried for topical use
•
Where can I find her?
•
👉She only grows natively in the Mediterranean,however she's super easy to grow in a pot!
•
👉You can buy her fresh in stores/online!
•
🌿She's awesome, readily available, & most importantly you are smart enough to get to know her!

Our ally Ginkgo to aid and support low levels of dopamine and serotonin! Read below ⬇️

Gingko biloba is a really awesome ally in the fight against life's stressors!
•
So let's dive into what chronic stress does to the body🤓
•
👉First cortisol levels skyrocket,followed by adrenaline,followed by serotonin
•
This reaction is GREAT for SHORT TERM stress, our bodies don't make mistakes
•
However when the stress is unrelenting these hormones f**k us up!
•
Let's talk about Serotonin & how it has been mislabeled as the "happy hormone" when in fact it's a stress response hormone that during said stress numbs us from whatever the issue is so we can get through it
•
The real happy hormone is dopamine
•
Serotonin & Dopamine balance one another out
•
If your Serotonin is sky high(it's actually almost never low FYI)your dopamine levels are on the floor
•
Low dopamine makes us feel like shiiiiiiiiit...
•
(So would low enough serotonin,but again that's actually hard to achieve)
•
Low dopamine=
•
👉Zero motivation
👉Apathy
👉Constantly Worrying
👉Basically all the things that are labeled as symptoms of depression
•
Low dopamine makes us chase cheap dopamine hits too:
•
👉Constant scrolling
👉24/7 notification checking
👉Drugs
👉New partners 24/7
👉Arguing in comment sections
👉Binge watching TV
👉24/7 news
👉Eating when we're not hungry
👉Basically anything that lights up the reward center of our brain for a hot moment
•
Ain't even judging I'VE BEEN ALL OF THESE THINGS!
•
One thing that genuinely helped me step out of these cycles is Gingko,she has the capacity to upregulate dopamine which will naturally lower serotonin
•
When that happens our other stress hormones such as cortisol/adrenal can return to their natural states.Of course,this takes a bit of time but it does happen
•
Did I mention that stress slows blood flow to the brain?No? It's been shown that chronic stress SHRINKS OUR BRAINS!!!
•
What else does gingko do?She increases blood flow & brain mass.She legit is counteracting all of the negative symptoms of long term stress😳
•
HOWEVER chronic use can lower GABA which can make some folks feel anxious this is why I cycle:
•
👉3days Ginkgo then 3days California poppy who raises GABA is an awesome herbal stack!
•
Remember you're smart enough to do this!

Ways to incorporate in your day a day! Mountain Rose Herbs

Garlic Aioli Recipe With Curry Powder

This longstanding Mountain Rose Herbs garlic aioli recipe is a good example of taking the best of homemade aioli and adding a spicy twist. The curry powder in this recipe not only adds depth and flavor, but the golden color of this aioli is simply luscious. Use as a sandwich spread, a dipping sauce (particularly good on artichokes, just my opinion), and so much more.

🍃

just a semi-regular reminder to recognize that the way we speak impacts the way we think. so:

you wouldn’t say that you “use” your friends - that’s rude!
we also don’t like to speak in exploitative language about plants. they’re not resources, they’re alive!

instead we work with plants. we talk about what they’re good at, not what they’re good “for”. we build relationships, we find plants helpful. we collaborate!

this shift in speech changes the way we think about our relationship and our responsibility to plants!

how do you collaborate with plants? is it a one way relationship? what have you done for the plants lately? 🙂🌿❤️
