Blissfully By Nature

I've been hella busy w/ work and exhausted to no end 😵‍💫 I made time this morning though, to take my dogs and my snake to go meet the Easter Bunny before going to work... It was a bit chaotic 😆 Ruca (my snake) got nervous and pi**ed all over herself while inside the bag I brought her in.. which was on my lap..I knew when I felt a big wet spot on my dress. So I had to take her out of the bag while we waited our turn. There I am with giant snake p**s stain on my dress holding both my nearly 5' snake and my lil 5lb dog and Tulsi-Rose's leash while she is in her prime social butterfly mode loudly and excitedly greeting everyone in site and I'm on the phone dealing with some work place issues. This single pet Mom life can be tough at times haha Mad props to all y'all single parents of actual humans 😆. Anyway Happy Spring from my cute sidekicks and this springtime some bunny 🐇💐

Here is a useful dosage guide for herbs for pets from our friends at Red Moon Herbs! I have been making some helpful herbal teas for my dogs the last couple weeks as they are dealing with G.I. & urinary system issues. Our pets can greatly benefit from using herbal medicine, just be sure to use the proper dosage and know what herbs you are using and if they are okay for your pet.

We get SO many inquiries asking, "Can I give your echinacea to my puppy?" So we have created this handy dandy herbs for pets chart for your files. Keep it on your hard drive somewhere for those moments when Fido or your closest furry friend is in distress. Note: Cats will foam at the mouth with alcohol extracts directly administered, so best to dilute extracts or powdered herbs in wet food.

Our favorite seven herbs for dogs and cats:
Echinacea Extract
Hawthorn Berry
Immune Blend
Black Walnut & Wormwood Blend
Deep Roots
Green Wonder Salve

Looking through some of my books and trying to decide what sort of books I would like to offer at the 1881 Salt Sanctuary healing arts center I am co-opening this fall. Friends who are interested in the healing arts, what sort of books would you recommend or like to see offered for sale at a Salt Sanctuary that offers Salt Therapy, Massage therapy and an herbal apothecary retail space?

Many folks request information on identifying this traditional spring edible. So here is a lovely ode to chickweed + an illustrated i.d. guide, both from Dina Falconi of Foraging & Feasting 🌿
"Sun is out and snow is melting fast! Spring will be here soon enough; I can smell it. I am ready for some early spring greens like garlic mustard (Alliaria petiolata) and chickweed (Stellaria media). Aside from eating them as salad, they make an excellent combination for wild green pesto.
Let's give some love to chickweed, a wonderful super food who is tasty, free, abundant and nutrient dense — high in vitamin C, beta carotene, and minerals such as iron, calcium, magnesium, and manganese. This wild and weedy friend has a mild green, rich earthy flavor that makes it appealing to many palates. It's nice to tuck chickweed into sandwiches, or add to soup during the last few minutes of cooking. Miso seaweed soup with chickweed = Yum!"
To get yourself a copy of this fantastic field guide and wild foods cookbook, written and designed by Dina Falconi of Foraging & Feasting and illustrated by Wendy Hollender, visit:

It's one of our favorites!
