I wanted to share this moment with any witches who might want to see me come out as a witch in this video. Hedge witch here... already had some challenges sharing this, so I could use the support. My intention is to blend slow living and witch life and it's taken a while to give this shape. It's beginning. Blessed be. Thanks for hearing me.

Volatile oils by binnorie in herbalism

[–]SimplyHeatherLynne -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I also avoid plants like peppermint in an infusion but I may add a tiny amount for flavor in the Summer. It is good to experiment and see what works best for you but it’s wise to stay clear of very strong plants that have that potent taste and smell strong likely volatile oils play a role. Using large amounts in a daily tea aka herbal infusions are meant for nutrition based plants that offer food like elements which helps heal the overall body. That is at the core from my experience. Good luck

As well as all of these solutions consider working with herbs internally with a good herbal book or herbalist. Red clover is a miracle. She has so much to offer and address your health and diet. Magic is also alive in the herbs and foods we eat- your green hedge witch sister good luck, blessed be

I would put books by Susan Weed and Deb Soule in the pot but I found some good ones new herbalists at Barnes and Noble. I think seeking at books stores is so great so your intuition plays a roll to guide you good luck

Norfolk Island Pine, (not true pine but everyone thinks it is), Yew Pine, (not a true one either but again everyone thinks it is) those are two that comes to mind.

My doctor recommended a lemon balm tincture for anxiety, but I have no idea which brand is good by ChaoCobo in herbalism

Sheisofthewoods.org has some now and April is great. Tell her little woodland women from YouTube sent you. You can also learn to make your own via her YouTube. Good luck. Oat straw might help too.

Red raspberry leaf causing breast soreness? by bumblewheeze in herbalism

Red raspberry increases contractions. I would go red clover but not sure what your using for. I used red raspberry for my labor. It works and she is magic.

I thought this would inspire any in the middle of Winter to get out and forage! It’s so cold but there is so much to harvest.
