Welcome back to The Herbalists Path! In today's episode, I'm opening up about the whirlwind of mom life and how I've been feeling disconnected from my beautiful plant friends.

In today's episode of The Herbalist's Path, I explore natural remedies for sunburns. Discover how melanin protects our DNA but isn't foolproof against prolonged UV exposure. I discuss Good Day Sunshine, a herbal sunscreen with Calendula and St. John's Wort. While prevention is key, I also highlight powerful herbal remedies for soothing and healing sunburns.

Vulnerary herbs are perfect for healing wounds, and mucilaginous herbs like aloe vera, which offer cooling and soothing effects can work wonders and provide much needed relief to sunburned skin. Other herbs like calendula, lavender, comfrey, plantain, and marshmallow root are also noted for their remarkable healing properties. Although I stress on prevention throughout the episode, I also highlight the incredible power of herbs to heal sunburns.

In this episode we dive into the world of herbs and how they can help us beat the summer heat. As moms, we're always on the lookout for natural remedies to keep our families healthy, and herbs are a great solution. We discuss the cooling properties of herbs and their ability to combat excess heat in the body.

Peppermint is a refreshing herb that aids digestion and relaxes the muscles of the digestive tract. Marshmallow root, with its gelatinous mucilage, provides relief and hydration to inflamed skin, making it perfect for sunburns. Hibiscus, with its antioxidants and vitamin C, is a popular choice for cooling down and improving blood flow. We also explore the idea of creating herb-infused popsicles as a fun and nutritious way to keep kids cool.

If you're new to herbs, don't worry. Starting with just one herb and exploring its uses can build a solid foundation of herbal knowledge. And if you're looking for more recipes and ideas, consider joining the Herb Safe Kids Club (Coming Soon), where we focus on herbs that are beneficial for both kids and adults. 

So stay hydrated, find ways to stay cool, and embrace the vibrant and energetic summer season with the help of herbs. Cheers to a refreshing and healthy summer!

As a licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor, and a cherished member of our online herbal mentorship, Apothecary Momma, Terri shared her perspective on the lack of support for women in recovery. We explored generational trauma, societal expectations, harsh judgment, and the intensified guilt and shame faced by pregnant women with substance use or mental health issues.

Terri passionately believes in the healing potential of herbs and envisions them as a revolution in recovery, prenatal care and family care.  We also explored Terri's personal journey into herbalism, starting with health challenges leading to a hysterectomy to the transformative experience of her grandson moving in. Her study of herbs improved their well-being, and her grandson now actively participates in choosing and incorporating them into their routine.

She emphasized the importance of reclaiming ancestral knowledge lost due to societal changes and misinformation. Terri's dedication to healing others and integration of herbal medicine left a lasting impact. Our conversation deepened my admiration for her and shed light on the profound trauma experienced by many women, highlighting the need for a holistic approach to support.

This heartfelt conversation with Terri provides valuable insights and personal stories, showcasing the power of herbalism. I encourage you to tune in and share this episode with other moms who may find inspiration in Terri's journey.
