It's that time! Change is good, but change can be hard on the body. We are built to adapt though, and with the right tools we can help our minds and bodies have an easier time adjusting. Here are a few herbs I would reach for and keep on hand in this season:

Elderberry is rich in antioxidants and vitamins that boost the immune system, helping to prevent colds and flu. It also has anti-inflammatory and antiviral properties that can reduce the severity and duration of illnesses.

Echinacea: Known for its immune-boosting properties, it can help prevent colds and flu.

Chamomile: Helps with anxiety and can promote better sleep, which is important during the transition back to school.

Peppermint: Good for digestive issues and can also help with concentration.

Ashwagandha: An adaptogen that helps with stress and fatigue, useful for handling the pressures of school.

Rosemary: Enhances memory and concentration, making it great for studying and staying focused.

Lavender: Calming and soothing, it can help reduce anxiety and improve sleep quality.

Ginkgo Biloba: Known for improving cognitive function, enhancing memory, and increasing mental clarity. It's often used to support brain health and improve focus.

Lion's Mane enhances memory and learning by promoting neuron growth and differentiation. It also stimulates the production of Nerve Growth Factor (NGF), supporting overall brain health and mental clarity.

A practical way I like to incorporate these herbs is with my essential oil diffuser. Diffusing oils like peppermint or rosemary really help me focus. I also incorporate them in tea form, by adding them to food dishes, as well as taking them in supplement form. The thing to remember with herbs is consistency is key.

Small choices add up.

Swapping one daily drink for an herbal tea, turning on your diffuser instead of lighting that candle... sometimes supporting your body is as simple as that.

Don't overthink it. You got this. I'm proud of you. Happy back to school!! 🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼

And for the lady... perhaps a strong herbal infusion to deeply hydrate and nourish her body... 👀 This jar is our Ambient Glow blend. Super easy way to get absorbable iron, calcium, magnesium, and potassium alongside a potent boost of antioxidant Vitamin C. It also provides soothing marshmallow root mucilage to coat & calm the digestive tract, paired with active plant oils that calm anxiety, ease spasms, and reduce inflammation. Throw some tea and water in a jar and let it sit on your counter for a couple hours (4-8 is recommended). That's it. I usually use 1-2 cups of plant material depending on how strong I want it. Strong brews are great as a concentrate or for turning into ice cubes. Room temp or cool water. Sweeten to taste or not at all. I do different things depending on the day. Herbalism can be as simple as that. Don't over complicate it. 🫶🏼 I make a jar like this every couple of days. (Keeps my husband from going and getting a soda. 😉)

Did you know we actually have two herbal blends on our shelves right now that are specifically formulated for feminine health? We spend so much time talking about skincare serums and topical routines, but supporting the body from the inside out is always a good choice long term.

Ambient Glow
I sat down with a local esthetician, Claire
Hula over Claire Hula 🪲 skin + brow witch to map this one out because we wanted to target the connection between skin health and hormone balance.

* Red Raspberry Leaf & Lemon Balm: This is the baseline. They are incredibly grounding and just really supportive for cyclic bodies.
* Spearmint: If you struggle with hormonal breakouts, you might already know about this one. It's often used to help manage androgen levels, which directly impact sebum and oil production.
* Marshmallow Root: It’s a mucilaginous herb, meaning it helps soothe and hydrate things internally. It’s amazing for gut health, which has a massive ripple effect on your skin.
* Hibiscus: This gives it that gorgeous tart flavor and packs in a ton of vitamin C to help your body naturally protect its collagen.

Vital Radiance
This one is less about the skin and more about vitality, circulation, and giving your nervous system a break from fight-or-flight mode.
* Raspberry Leaf & Lemon Balm: Again, keeping that solid, nourishing foundation.
* Cinnamon & Rose Petals: Cinnamon brings a little warmth and helps with healthy circulation, while rose adds a really gentle, antioxidant rich element.
* Lemon Verbena & Linden Flower/Leaf: This pairing is specifically in there for stress resilience. Linden is one of those traditional herbs used to help physically unwind tension when you're feeling overwhelmed.

No weird synthetic fillers, flavorings, or sweeteners, just functional plants that actually work with your physiology.
Have you tried either of these yet? If you want to check them out, feel free to message me or find the link in our bio, or you can always drop any questions about the ingredients right here. 🤟🏼

Anybody else wake up to some icky air outside? The air quality out here has been testing our lungs lately, and if you’re trying to navigate this wildfire season without just hiding indoors forever, I feel you. It’s overwhelming.

Here are some things I do when the air outside gets like this:

🏡 1. Lock Down The Indoor Air
We have to stop the source. Microscopic smoke particles (PM2.5) bypass your body’s natural defenses easily.
* The DIY Air Filter: If you don’t have a pricey HVAC system, tape a 4-inch MERV 13 (or higher) furnace filter to the back of a standard box fan. It’s a scientifically proven, budget-friendly way to slash indoor particle counts.
* Ditch the Scents: Skip the candles, incense, and heavy frying right now.

🍵 2. Herbal Respiratory Allies (The Science-Backed Side)
When we breathe in smoke, it triggers oxidative stress and inflammation in our airways. These specific herbs help soothe that response:
* Mullein: A classic respiratory tonic. Mullein acts as a demulcent (meaning it creates a soothing layer over irritated mucous membranes) and an expectorant to help your lungs clear out trapped debris.
* Marshmallow Root: If you or your kids have that dry, scratchy, hacking smoke cough, this is your best friend. It’s packed with mucilage, which coats the throat and instantly calms irritation.
* Ginger & Turmeric: Heavy smoke exposure causes systemic inflammation. High-quality ginger and turmeric teas leverage active compounds (gingerols and curcumin) to help blunt that inflammatory spike.

😷 3. The Mask Reality Check
Bandanas and standard surgical masks do absolutely nothing for wildfire smoke because PM2.5 particles pass right through them. If you or the family must go outside, grab a well fitting N95 or KN95. It’s the only way to actually filter out the microscopic danger.

Stay hydrated, keep the windows shut, and lean into those soothing herbal teas this week. Pray for our firefighters. Help your neighbors. We’re getting through this season one deep, filtered breath at a time. 🤟🏼

Packed with antioxidants, vitamins, and bio-available minerals, elderberry syrup offers a natural & etfective way to boost immunity, reduce allergy symptoms, and combat common illnesses like colds and flu.

The flavonoids found in elderberries, particularly anthocyanins, have been shown to reduce inflammation and strengthen the body’s defenses against pathogens. Incorporating elderberry syrup into your family’s routine could help shorten the duration of sickness and make symptoms more manageable.

Having elderberry syrup on hand is a wise choice for several reasons:

Reduces the chances of illness or lessen its severity

Reassuring option for anyone who prefers to avoid over the counter medications when possible. Its gentle yet effective approach to supporting the immune system makes it suitable for children and adults alike.

Versatile and easy to incorporate into your family’s routine.

Whether you add it to your morning smoothies, drizzle it over pancakes, or simply take a spoonful straight from the jar, elderberry syrup provides a convenient way to support you & your family’s health.

Keeping an elderberry syrup kit in your pantry ensures that you’re prepared to tackle illness and promote wellness for your loved ones throughout the year.

Feeling depleted after the festivities?

Summer heat zapping your energy?

When temperatures soar, you do not just lose water through sweat. You also lose critical minerals and electrolytes like magnesium, potassium, and calcium. Traditional water is great, but iced herbal teas (tisanes) can help supercharge your summer hydration by delivering these nutrients straight to your cells.

A couple of my favorite mineral rich herbs:

🌺 Hibiscus: This tart, ruby red flower is packed with vitamin C, iron, and key organic acids that support hydration and helps cool the body from the inside out. Find it in our Ambient Glow and Golden Hour teas!

🌿 Nettle: A true powerhouse. Nettle is loaded with highly absorbable calcium, magnesium, iron, and potassium. Find some nettle in our Heart Health tea!

🌱 Red Raspberry Leaf: High in calcium, magnesium, and potassium, making it an excellent cooling tonic. Get your hands on some red raspberry leaf in our NEW Vital Radiance tea and our Ambient Glow!

Pro-Tip for Summer Brewing:
Make a “Sun Tea” or a strong overnight cold brew. Steeping your herbs in cold water in the fridge for 8–12 hours allows for a deep, smooth extraction of minerals without any bitter flavors. Pour over ice, add a splash of lime, and sip your way back to balance!

If you’ve been needing to stock up now is a great time! 35% off your entire purchase now through July 12, no code needed!
