BULK // Going back to raw herb formulas at home. After years of being on again & off again of herbs and supplements in various pill and liquid forms, for convenience mostly since half my time is spent running after 2 young children, it feels like going home to put together a proper bulk herb formula for myself. Though they may take more time and thought to prepare (maybe this is a good thing when we are trying to bring forth health!), they are more potent than what we call “patents” - pre-made pill and capsule forms. Pretty too! My body has been reaching out to me… trying to tell me something lately. Trying my best to make space & fully listen. 🌱.

Front and center. It’s where I like to keep the herbs. I could put them into the pantry I guess but they’re so pretty - and I find I use them more when they are out and I see them each day. It’s like vitamins - they need to be within arm’s reach or it’s not happening. (Is that just me?) They are a reminder to eat with intention, create new things, and always get back on track when things fall away. Currently on the shelf// Dried ginger, wild rose, lavender, goji berries, lemon balm, chamomile flowers, dried astragalus, rehmannia. 💫.
