Allergies are Here!

It’s the turning of the tides, the whisping on the tail of the wind.
What to do when we can’t stop the ACHOOOS!


Here are a few potent & therapeutic kick butt tips:


Avoid Sugar
: Feed your cells something very healthy FIRST thing in the morning.

Go to your local Farmers Market and look for:

Bee Pollen: fresh and local (natural anti-histamine and has vitamins and minerals that help your system to relax).

Eat Onions: Onions are naturally rich in quercetin. Can anyone say yummy homemade soup?

You can also Juice Parsley or simply eat the curly haired wonder. Parsley has natural anti-histamine.

Stinging Nettles
: There is a great and potent tea called “Nettles” by Traditional Medicinals. Drink throughout the day hot or cold. Make a big batch and save for no more than three days. The below products also have nettles -

Best Remedy for Morning Sickness

Many women have asked me for a remedy for morning sickness. This is a tough one because one thing does not work for everyone. But I have a remedy that seems to work most of the time* and it requires some basic knowledge of tea making. So here it is:

Red Raspberry Leaf 1pt
Nettle Leaf 1pt
Mint leaf 1/2pt

Of course make sure that all of the herbs used are certified organic and the water is distilled or from a water store. And always use a glass jar to prepare your tea. We prefer mason jars because they will hold boiling hot water without shattering (for the most part.)
