🌸 To All Breast Cancer Survivors: Your Feelings Are Valid 🌸

October can be a complex month. While Breast Cancer Awareness aims to bring hope, we recognize that for many, it can also be a time of intense emotions - anxiety, fear, and even trauma.

If you're feeling overwhelmed:
▪️ ️ It's okay to step back
▪️ You don't have to participate in awareness events
▪️ Your healing journey is personal and unique

Some gentle suggestions:
▪️ Take a break from social media and TV
▪️ Prioritize self-care
▪️ Reach out to supportive friends or a trauma-informed therapist
▪️ Do something you love that brings you joy

Remember: You are so much more than your diagnosis. Your experiences are valid, and your well-being comes first. Be kind to yourself this month and always.

Autumn is coming quickly to the Ozarks, and Black Walnut trees are starting to drop their bounty. Perhaps you know the frustration of walking across a yard full of hard, spherical walnuts in Autumn, craving the healthy fruits inside while understanding that the process to get to the nut, itself, is a laborious, time-consuming effort. Hammons Black Walnuts, out of Stockton, Missouri, is here to help. Started in 1946, Hammons has filled a processing need in its local community and throughout the world for nearly 80 years.

💧 This humble root can change how you think you know about cough syrup...

Meet marshmallow root - and no, I'm not talking about those puffy campfire treats! The scientific name is Althea officinalis, and its name literally means "to heal" in Greek. ✨

Here's the mind-blowing part: When you soak this root in cold water overnight, it transforms plain water into liquid silk. That's mucilage - nature's own throat coat that soothes irritated tissues from the inside out. Marshmallow root coats and protects inflamed mucous membranes throughout your respiratory system, giving dry, scratchy throats the moisture they desperately are craving.

But here's the catch: Most people don't know HOW to prepare it properly or WHEN to use it vs. other herbs. Some people inadvertently use drying herbs in their cough syrup when their body is screaming for moisture.

🌱 Ready to dive deeper into customized cough syrups?

It happens like clockwork. Two weeks after the school bells ring, the symphony begins—coughing, sniffling, sneezing echoing through homes as children return from summer adventures, generously sharing more than just vacation stories with their classmates. If you're reaching for that bottle of generic, herbal cough syrup, pause for a moment. Your cough is trying to tell you something important. While you might be tempted to throw everything you can think of at it, your cough deserves a more thoughtful approach.

Discover what your cough is really trying to tell you and learn more about developing a relationship with plant medicine that honors both ancient wisdom and your body's unique expression of wellness.

🌿 Please stop buying random, herbal cough syrups! Here's why your approach to herbal cough syrups might need an upgrade...

Most of us grab whatever herbal cough product looks good on the shelf, but what if I told you there's a WAY more effective approach?

In Western herbalism, we match herbs to specific symptom patterns. That dry, scratchy, lingering cough that drives you crazy? It needs MOISTENING herbs, not just any "cough herb."

✨ My go-to dry cough allies: • Marshmallow root (the plant🌱, not the puffy, white confection) • Mullein

These beauties don't just suppress symptoms - they actually help HEAL the underlying tissue irritation causing that stubborn cough.
