Drinking oolong tea 🍵 is said to increase the production of anti-bacterial proteins, which helps in fighting infections. It's made from the leaves of the Camellia sinensis plant, the same plant used to make green tea and black tea. The flavonoids in oolong tea can help maintain a healthy immune system. 💪🏼

💚 “The secrets are in the plants, to elicit them, you have to love them enough.” 💚
-George Washington Carver

Mullein is a beautiful plant, able to assist in the reduction of inflammation, specifically soothing to the lungs. It is a demulcent, meaning it relieves irritation by creating a protective barrier over the mucousal membranes. Mullein is used therapeutically following inflammation from sickness (bronchitis, laryngitis, persistent coughing) or external damage (pollution, smoke).

Other uses:

I am ever so grateful to have spent yet another beautiful weekend amongst Mother Nature.
🏕️ 🌿
It never ceases to amaze me how much we can consistently learn about the plant medicine that resides all around us. There is no limit.

Not only the medicine within the plants, but also the medicine and power of stillness and presence.

Our society is not very conducive to our nervous systems finding homeostasis. It can get quite messy trying to regulate.

On this trip Dr. Bob and guided us to experience both the liveliness of the plants during the day, the yang energy ☀️, and also ventured into the woods at dark, the yin energy 🌖….

No speaking, no lights, just complete silence and connection with the plants. Extremely powerful.

I’m grateful for the community and company that was kept!

Thank you for holding space for me. A moment I will be forever grateful for.

Thank you . You all place so much work into each of these events to pass on such special and sacred wisdom.

One of the things that I appreciate the most takes place at the end of my workday.

This is where I take the time to create herbal formulas for those I have seen.

This takes much thoughtfulness in the approach, as the intent is to relieve symptoms, but also, always working towards the root.

I appreciate how each is unique, tailored to a specific person, for that specific point in their healing journey. Just as we ebb and flow, so do the formulas. Each visit we continue to tailor the formulas and treatment in order to maintain balance.

Herbal practitioners are trained to take the time to fully understand each case and thoughtfully craft a formula that is appropriate.

I am always so grateful for the opportunity to have such genuine interactions. I place a little part of my heart into each one.
🌿♥️🌿 ❤️
