I think I'm detoxing because I'm bored. Started the dandelion brew. Researching online how to make herbal salves. Will be nice because I can't help myself from gardening without gloves, often times. Here is at least one resource although there are many. http://www.naturalhomeandgarden.com/natural-remedies/herbal-salves-how-to-make-a-healing-salve.aspx I will make a medium-sized batch from plants around the North Beach property to distribute to Dita, a few family members and friends. Before I mow the lawn. Also making a batch from dried Motherwort herb, Calendula, and grapeseed oil. Motherwort was traditionally used by midwives as a uterine tonic. Traditional Chinese Medicine regards it as a blood tonic. Calendula is a key herbal ingrediant in most natural wound healing products available at stores. Flower power!
I've also got this quarter oz of Eyebright herb sitting here. Someone I know happens to be dealing with some eye inflammation so I will make some tea today. But other than that - what to do? Not only is Eyebright happy for the eyes, but also allergies. Another compounded tea is on the way, with Stinging Nettle and Rosemary. All from dried plants although now is certainly the time to harvest baby nettle.
