Herbal Apothecary At Home?

Benefits of Having One at Your Fingertips

There's nothing better than having easy and quick access to care that can offer preventative measures and/or act as a support system when you're not feeling well. Whether it's a cold, indigestion, menstrual cramps to minor skin irritations having an herbal apothecary or herbal medicine cabinet is useful for any household.

Everyday problems mentioned above always respond well to many herbs that are accessible to you either right in your back yard, in the produce isle of your local grocers or dried.

In this starter-interactive guide, my goal is to give you a few common herbs that you can start with and get to know personally. Herbs are magical and can be very powerful. So, its important to approach with humility and care. Learning about an herb's function is great, but interacting with an herb through personal experience is truly where the magic of alchemy begins.

ADVICE: After learning about an herb, experience it simply by touching, smelling and brewing it alone. Get a sense of how it tastes. Because herbs have a fantastic connection to the body's innate wisdom, allow yourself to feel it, sense it and notice it.
