Spring is one of my absolute favorite times at .heart.herb.house and as the Earth is waking up and color is returning to the world around us!!

Plus these gray rainy spring days are just perfect for drinking one of our delicious herbal tea blends.

We always have something yummy and nourishing in the pot so come grab a mug and take a stroll around the gardens!

We also have remedies for seasonal allergies, throat, lung, and immune system support.

Come by and chat with an experienced herbalist who will connect you with the herbs that can support you!

There are only a few more spots for our medicinal herb plant walk on Saturday so make sure you register to save your spot! Link in bio to do so

Spring is a time of transition - shifting from the inward and often slow moving thick energy of winter to the lighter more energetic spark of spring.

This transition plays out many ways in our lives... and in our bodies.

This is the season we honor our bodies’ natural pathways of elimination, specifically the liver, kidneys, lymph, and lungs as we release winter’s stagnancy and make way for the fresh life + growth of this new season!

I don’t often use the word “detox” because it’s so misused and overused in our mainstream culture.

I don’t like it because it often implies that something is wrong with us or there’s something that we need to harshly remove from our bodies so we can be well again (this is most often not the case.)

The truth of it is that our body is always “detoxing”, all day every day.

Every time you p*e, p**p, sweat, EXHALE, and sleep your body is processing and releasing internal metabolic waste and external environmental chemicals.

Luckily herbs offer so much in terms of supporting your body’s natural pathways of elimination, aka detoxification!

That’s one of the things I absolutely love about herbalism.

Herbs don’t hijack the body and make it do something different, they just support the natural processes that your body is already doing on its own, offering nourishment and ease.

Spring is the perfect time to connect with these liver, kidney, lymph, and lung supporting herbs and here are THREE ways for you to do so!

1️⃣ Wild Heart’s new Liver Love tincture blend! This potent extraction of dandelion root, burdock root, and milk thistle seed naturally supports, protects, and nourishes the liver. Perfect for you if you’ve been feeling sluggish, heavy, slow in digestion, or experiencing skin breakouts or eczema.

2️⃣ Join me on a plant walk this Saturday morning to meet IRL the liver, lymph, kidney, and lung supporting herbs that pop up in the spring!

3️⃣ Attend our Spring Herbalism Day Retreat on May 9 to connect with these herbs more deeply, forage and create a skin soothing salve and kidney and liver supporting tincture!

The first time I attended a local plant walk it completely changed my life.

Many years ago I was invited by a local herbalist .body.midwife to explore a friend’s farm to forage for herbs, gather some that interested us, and just be outside with the plants and each other.

I grabbed one of my favorite baskets and headed out, not really sure what the experience would be like.

Sarah generously pointed out abundant herbs growing along stone walls, pasture edges, and hiding in plain sight all around us.

There was nettle and mugwort, cleavers and violet, dandelion and chickweed. Herbs that I had heard about, but many I was meeting in person for the first time.

She instructed on identifying characteristics, how to sustainably harvest, what the herbs were used for and why.

It was eye opening to say the least!

I learned how to notice individual plants in a sea of green, knowing what to look for, how to really see.

It completely changed how I view, interact with, and collaborate with the world around me.

Now a walk outside isn’t just fresh air, it’s connecting with the plants and herbal allies that grow all around me, making me feel at home no matter where I am.

With the intention of reciprocity, of passing along this important wisdom and knowledge,

I open heartedly invite you to join me on a Medicinal Herb Plant Walk on Saturday April 25 at 10:30am at Wild Heart Herb House!

We will observe + identify early spring medicinal herbs, discuss their healing properties, and learn how to collaborate with them.

Learning about the plants that are growing around you is SO FUN and allows us to connect more deeply with this incredible planet that we call home!⁠

Spring is popping up around Wild heart and I couldn’t be more excited!

Yes it’s a gray day, but it’s still a perfect one to stroll around the gardens, spot medicinal herbs coming through the dried leaves, and pick up herbal remedies to keep you uplifted during this still very cold transitional time of the year.

There are still a few spots left for our tea blending workshop next Saturday morning!

Come visit! Open today, Saturday 10-3 🌿

Drinking herbal tea is the foundation of herbalism for a reason: it’s easy, incredibly nourishing, and there is so much variety!

Join me on March 28 at Wild Heart Herb House for an Herbal Tea Blending Workshop!!

This is a fun, hands on, and informative gathering all about making your own herbal tea blends!

We will taste different simples (teas with only one herb), discuss strategies for blending for taste and medicine, and everyone who attends will depart with their own custom tea blend.

In this class you will learn:

🌿 strategies for blending delicious + medicinal herbal teas

🌿 which herbs to use and why

🌿 which herbs to NOT use and why

🌿 how to begin a potent daily herbal tea practice

🌿 creating blends for your friends and family!

Classes at Wild Heart are always a great time and participants leave smiling and inspired.

I present material in an easy to understand way that feels like “of course! That makes so much sense!”

The environment is always comfortable and welcoming, come with a friend or by yourself (it’s not weird at all to come alone, in fact most people do!)

This class will most likely sell out as I’m capping attendance at 10 participants so register asap if you want to join us!

Suggested price of $50 with a sliding scale adjustment of $40-60.

Comment TEA and I’ll send you the link to sign up!

Hope to see you there!
