If oil and vinegar dress the salad, edible flowers bejewel it.

The chive and mustard flowers will soon be over. Happily, bright Calendula will bloom all season.

Take a few seconds to listen, and reset your nervous system. Come back to this whenever and as often as you need to.

Even better, get yourself out to the real thing if you can. You won’t regret it.

Something that I wish more people knew about herbs for sleep: The most famous ones aren’t always the best. And not only that, but relying on one herb as the backbone of nearly all sleep formulas can actually turn people off to using herbs to help promote good rest.

Here I discuss an herb I basically never use in practice, despite it being one of the best known for sleep.

One of the great things about herbal medicine and naturopathic medicine is that we have so many options. We don’t need to rely on one herb that has paradoxical effects for a large percentage of our patients.

Your annual reminder that Mother’s Day is not a celebration of parenting, it’s a protest against sending children to war.

You don’t have to be a parent or have a healthy relationship with your parents, regardless of what Hallmark and social media push on you.

But here are some roses, because nature photos are my love language.

Fun fact: At least in my neighborhood, the bearded irises all smell like grapes.

I swear this did not used to be the case.

But a bunch of years ago, a friend brought me some heirloom iris flowers from Northern California that filled my house with that grape scent. And suddenly, all the irises around me started smelling like grapes.

maybe it was always like that and I never noticed. But I just don’t think so.

Are the irises fragrant where you live? Inquiring minds want to know.
