When the summer heat kicks in, our blood vessels dilate, fluid naturally shifts into the tissues, and if your lymph pathways are a little sluggish, you experience the "summer swell."

How do we fix it? We create flow.

On Saturday, June 13th, I’m opening up the apothecary table at our new South of the River location T Cup Espresso to show you the clinical science behind moving stagnation.

What we are doing together:
🌿 The Formulation: You’ll craft your own 1oz Lymphatic Body Oil and Lymphatic Tea.
🌿 The Protocol: I will teach you a targeted, 5-minute daily lymphatic massage routine designed to reduce puffiness and pull the "heavy" feeling out of your body.
🌿 You'll take home everything you made in class and easy to understand educational materials. + A special gift.
🍹 The Vibe: We’ll be sipping complimentary, handcrafted botanical mocktails while we work.

If you want to move past the "Big Wellness" trends and actually understand the biochemistry of how your body detoxifies, come spend a Saturday morning with me.

Registration is required. Bring a friend, grab a morning coffee, and let’s get things moving. The $5.00 "Buddy Discount" is automatically applied at checkout when you grab two spots!

SIGN UP HERE:

This is not a physical product, nothing will be shipped to you. This reserves your spot in class at the South Of The River Location. Tax must be charged because there are take home items. Thank you for your understanding.

💡Ladies, your body shouldn’t feel like a rollercoaster you can’t get off.

❌Feeling like a stranger in your own skin once a month (or all the time).
❌The "short fuse" that leads to snapping at the people you love.
❌Night sweats and hot flashes that steal your sleep and your focus.
❌The heavy, dragging fatigue that hits right before your cycle.
❌Waking up feeling anxious or "on edge" for no clear reason.
❌Sometimes the issue isn’t just your "hormones"...

It’s a communication breakdown between your liver and your endocrine system. 📉🧠

Our Hormone Harmony tincture was formulated to support:

⚖️ Cycle Regularity: Encouraging a smoother transition through every phase.
🌊 Emotional Resilience: Moving through the "tears and rage" with more grace.
🌡️ Thermal Regulation: Helping the body manage hot flashes and night sweats.
🧘 Cortisol Balance: Lowering the "stress alarm" so your hormones can stabilize.
🌸 Nutritive Support: Feeding the tissues that support reproductive health.
🛡️ Adrenal Vitality: Ensuring you aren't "running on fumes."

Your stomach shouldn’t feel like it’s fighting every meal.

❌Bloating after eating.
❌That heavy, sluggish feeling that just sits there.
❌Skin acting up no matter what products you try.
❌Feeling uncomfortable after meals instead of energized by them.

💡Sometimes the issue isn’t just what you’re eating…
It’s how well your body is actually breaking it down and moving it through.

Our Digest Better tincture was formulated to support:

✅sluggish digestion
✅occasional bloating & fullness
✅digestive discomfort after meals
✅bile flow & digestive stimulation
✅keeping things moving regularly
✅better nutrient absorption support

Bitters have been used for generations to help “wake up” digestion — supporting stomach acid, bile flow, and the body’s natural digestive processes before food just sits and ferments.

🔦And when digestion is sluggish?
People often notice it beyond the stomach:

🔍skin flare ups
🔍feeling tired after eating
🔍heaviness
🔍irregularity
🔍that “puffy” inflamed feeling

This isn’t about harsh detoxes or quick fixes.
It’s targeted herbal support for helping your body do what it was designed to do: digest, absorb, and eliminate more efficiently.

Especially helpful for those who:

✅feel bloated after meals
✅feel like food “just sits there”
✅struggle with occasional constipation/sluggishness
✅want digestive support without reaching for harsh options

I often get asked- "what pain tincture is best for me"? Here is a simple guide to help you choose which pain tincture is for you.

Choose Spice Trader Pain Tincture & Warming Pain Salve-- if your pain feels:
❌ Stiff & Rusty: You feel like a "rusty hinge" when you first get out of bed.
❌ Cold to the Touch: The area doesn't feel hot; it feels stagnant or "stuck."
❌ Better with Movement: Once you start moving around or get in a hot shower, the pain starts to fade.
❌ Weather Sensitive: Your joints "forecast" the rain or feel worse when the temperature drops.

Choose Mint Trader Pain Tincture & Cooling Pain Salve--if your pain feels:
❌ Hot & Angry: The area feels warm, looks red, or feels like it’s "throbbing."
❌ Sharp & Reactive: Every movement feels like a lightning bolt.
❌ Better with Ice: You find yourself reaching for an ice pack or a cold compress to numb the area.
❌ Over-Worked: This is the pain of a fresh injury, a long day of repetitive motion, or an acute flare-up.

What is The Herbal Hour?

We’ll be breaking down herbal support for the things you experience every day:

✅Persistent Pain: Understanding nerve support and topical relief.

✅The "Summer Swell": How to support lymphatic flow and detoxification.

✅Seasonal Allergies: Natural ways to soothe the congestion.

✅Hormone & Gut Health: Balancing the internal "fire" for better energy and skin.

We used to think our health "destiny" was written in stone the day we were born by the people who brought us into this world. If a disease ran in the family, we felt like time was ticking. C@ncer, D3mentia, P@rkinson's, ...

Current research proves that dietary polyphenols act as epigenetic modulators. Read more here: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23448446/

This is why you work with a CLINICAL herbalist. This is clinical herbalism. A healthy diet, with whole plant compounds just may rewire your DNA.

🕵️👩‍⚕️ ONE CLUE: gut health.

There are plenty of magnesium sprays and creams out there, but you’d be hard-pressed to find another company incorporating Magnesium Glycinate.

We don't settle for "average" mineral forms. Magnesium Glycinate is known for superior absorption and being incredibly gentle on the system—but it's technically challenging and expensive to formulate into topicals. We took the extra step because your body deserves the best results, not the easiest manufacturing process.

Our Herbalist-Formulated Spray (for fast action) and Whipped Cream (for soothing hydration) offer:

✅ Superior Magnesium Glycinate blend
✅ Zero industrial seed oils or synthetic junk
✅ Potency you can feel

Experience the unmatched performance of real apothecary standards. Why settle for anything less?

Why I don’t just "give" you herbs. 🌿✨

In the 17 years I’ve been practicing as an herbalist, I’ve learned one thing for sure: Nature is incredibly powerful. But natural doesn't automatically mean safe for everyone.

When you pick up a tincture from my apothecary, you aren't just getting a bottle of herbs. You're getting a formula that has been vetted through the lens of pharmacology.

🤔What does that actually mean?

Pharmacology is the study of how active substances move through and affect your body. It allows me to bridge the gap between ancient tradition and modern precision. It also helps me determine the perfect ratios for our extracts—ensuring that every drop is potent, consistent, and bioavailable.

The Reality of Modern Health:
According to recent data, nearly 70% of Americans take at least one prescription medication. Many of you are balancing your health while managing blood pressure, thyroid levels, mood, or heart health.

Because plants are filled with bioactive compounds—powerful biological messengers that tell your cells to shift and recalibrate—they have the ability to interact with those medications.

🫶This is where my work becomes "clinical"
Before I ever recommend an herb, I’m looking at the "invisible" map inside your body:

🚗The Pathways: Are the herb’s compounds and your medication using the same "highway" in your liver?

🚦The Signaling: Is the plant messenger going to amplify your medication, or accidentally mute it?

I don’t integrate pharmacology with herbalism because I think plants are scary. I do it because I respect your individual chemistry. My goal is to make sure your herbal support is a partner to your existing health protocol, not a source of extra friction.

Transparency is a love language in my apothecary. You deserve to know that your herbal products are crafted with both the heart of a gardener and the precision of a clinician.

If you’re ever wondering how your current routine fits together, please reach out. Even if you're already taking herbal products from another herbalist, or brand. Let’s make sure everything in your life is singing from the same song sheet.

Which market are you coming to see me at?

In 2025, I attended four markets a week. This year, I will be doing two markets a month, that way I can keep up with my garden, my bees, and enjoy time with my family and friends. I'm really excited to be going to markets as just a shopper. Maybe you'll catch me and the family wondering a market, don't be shy, come by and say hello if you see us!
