You probably know a thing or two (or a lot more than that) about herbal medicine since you’re here.

And more than likely, you’ve been building your own home apothecary. But you may still find yourself overwhelmed by options, or somehow never having exactly what you need.

So how do you curate a home apothecary that works for you?

By knowing what you and your family tend to deal with and what you want to have ready… BEFORE you need it.

And it’s much easier to figure that part out when everyone is healthy and thinking clearly, rather than at 2am when your kid is miserable. Or when you’re the one who’s sick and can barely string a thought together.

Join me tomorrow, September 1st at 6:30 PM CST.

Bring your questions and your favorite cup of tea 😉

Most people's home apothecary isn't curated.
It's any-thing-every-thing-all-at-once. (I still fall into this trap sometimes, even 17 years in.) But your body isn't all chaos.…It has habits, repetitive quirks, if you will.

A cold sore after too much sun.
A sore throat after a day of talking.
The same issue, every year, right
around the same time.

Bodies are complicated and weirdly predictable at the same time.
So, we can wrangle your apothecary’s chaos.…

By recognizing the repetitive issues that you/your friends/your partner/your kids have and use THAT to create your CURATED APOTHECARY!

I have watched too many brilliant, capable people lack the herbal tools they need when it was GO time. And it makes me sad & frustrated... FOR THEM.

Cleavers are easy to spot once you know what to feel for. ; )
They cling to clothes, hair, and dog fur with tiny hooks. They have square stems and whorled leaves, and they’re also called bedstraw because the plant was traditionally gathered and used in bedding because it sticks together well and forms mats that don't move around.
Recent research has also looked at cleavers tincture in wound-care contexts, including skin cell migration in some human cell studies.

Blackberries, dewberries, and raspberries are yummy but they also support digestion with fiber, while the leaves and roots have a long history of use as astringents which we use for gut irritation and inflammation and the poops.

CLASS ALERT!
Client Capacity, Implementing Change, and the Art of Collaborative Protocol Creation with Cameron Strouss, B.S., RH (AHG), FH, Aromatherapist

The most clinically sound protocol means nothing if a client can't digest it, integrate it, and implement it. This Focus Session explores the gap between what we think clients might need and what is logistically workable in their lives — and how practitioners can design protocols collaboratively with this in mind.
Through the frameworks of capacity assessment, behavior replacement, phased protocols, and client/practitioner collaborative care, in this Focus Session, we'll hash out how to more effectively meet clients in their lives rather than inside of our clinical ideal. Practitioners will leave with a toolkit for designing recommendations that are honest, sustainable, and workable for their clients.

What happens when we liquidate a whole three tiers of care from our care model?

IMO, a big’ole mess. What do you think?🤔

Y'all, here's one of the easiest wild edibles, Tradescantia virginiana or Virginia Spiderwort. Those purple, three-petal flowers, the buds, and the young leaves are all edible. And one of the best parts is that there are no lookalikes!
- Flowers- slightly sweet, toss 'em on a salad
- Flower buds- gather a whole bunch and sauté like rapini they are real tasty
- Young, tender leaves are great raw on a salad or sautéed
- The shoots are great sauteed

Once the leaves are a little older they will be fibrous and they aren't going to be as tasty.
