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

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.
