I always say that if a specific plant keeps showing up for you - pay attention. It might just be exactly what you didn’t yet know you need. Nature has always supported our wellness and wholeness. I think that’s pretty amazing.

Brand new: Allergy blend tincture!

This blend has been tried and tested by yours truly, a nature-loving girl who once tested positive for allergies to literally every single type of grass they test for 😫

This blend always comes to my rescue when I’ve spent a little too much time frolicking in that grass I’m allergic to. From itchy eyes to a runny nose and sneezing, this blend brings fast, all-natural relief without any drowsiness or unpleasant side effects.

What’s in it:

🌿 Nettle - antihistamine, anti-inflammatory, reduces severity of allergic responses

🌿 Goldenrod - relieves sinus congestion and itchy, watery eyes; restores tone to mucosal tissue

🌿 Elderflower - traditionally used for sneezing, itchy eyes and skin, and runny noses

This blend has been my saving grace this allergy season, and I’m so happy to share it with you! And yes, I do always try my recipes and remedies before they hit the shelves. Allergic friends, it’s time to frolic in the grass and pet cats again 🌱🤗

I highly recommend casual evening meandering strolls. Tonight it made my heart smile when my daughter came to me saying “Mommy, look!” Last night’s storm had blown down a branch from a sweet gum tree and she had found green gum balls - and because her mama’s an herbalist she knew that’s just what I’ve been looking for! (I’ll use them to make a tincture - they’re known as “nature’s Tamiflu”for their flu-relief benefits).

Then we found so many mushrooms that I couldn’t stop squealing, of course we also had to gather some usnea (thank you Mother Nature, and yes I feel like the Usnea Queen by now). And lastly we foraged for some wild violet for my little guy who has a sore throat. I brought the leaves in for him to munch on, the mucilage in them coats the throat and is very soothing.

Oh and we saw fireflies!! And a bunny! For a grand total of $0 we brought in lots of treasures and had a good time hunting for them.

The magical Mimosa tree’s pink puff flowers are every bit as joyful as they look (and smell).

First off - Mimosa isn’t technically the correct name for this tree (which is actually known as Albizia) - however, it’s the name it has come to be known by in my region, so I do call it “Mimosa” as well as “Albizia” in my workings with it.

This tree exudes happiness, its bark and flowers have been used in Traditional Chinese Medicine as well as Western and other cultural medicines for their ability to bring happiness and resolve emotional heart wounds with their uplifting and supportive properties.

Albizia helps by moving stagnant liver Qi, which can become stuck after times of trauma or emotional distress. It invigorates the life-force energy of the blood and, in nourishing the heart and spirit, can relieve symptoms of anxiety.

Research studies indicate Albizia’s specific actions on serotonin receptors as it nourishes the nervous system, as well as its proven effects to relieve depression, and support for restorative sleep after periods of insomnia.

I love foraging Albizia - her flowers are like something from another world and smell like heaven. My Mimosa flower tincture is seasonally made with locally foraged flowers and is a good addition to the apothecary shelf for days when you need an extra dose of happiness or times when your emotional heart especially needs some nourishment.

Herbs can be a great option for kids, and are often a more gentle and fully supportive remedy than other medicines. While not all herbs are for kids, many are safe in appropriate doses.

Here are some of my favorite kid-friendly herbs that offer support and relief for common childhood complaints.

I personally have no concerns about giving kids tinctures - one drop per age has been a good general dose in my experience, and can easily be diluted in some water, juice, or tea.

Introducing: Happy Day ☀️ an herbal blend created to support mood balance, a regulated nervous system, stamina and resilience, all while supporting healthy liver function and hormone balance.

This blend is one that’s near and dear to my heart, and was inspired by my beautiful doula clients who wanted something they could take to help with mood during the postpartum phase. I specifically chose herbs for this tincture that are considered safe for breastfeeding, as I wanted them to be able to use this one as soon as they started feeling those postpartum mood shifts.

If you’re not postpartum, this one’s for you too! We can all use some mood support, I think, and I’ve been loving the calm vibes this one gives while also adding some focus and resilience as I face the day.

This adaptogen + nervine blend is an excellent one for covering the full spectrum of mood support while offering relief from stress, anxiety, and feeling blue.

It’s always a good day for a Happy Day ☀️
