Your so right about dumbing down society Terri, here in Australia every TV. Commercial is telling us what to do, how to do it... even how to watch out for spoilt food or how to wash your hands etc etc, everywhere you go constant bombardment... I end up ranting randomly 🤔😂😩, love the salves
Completely agree about how we’ve got to a place where colour-coding systems now determine people’s actions, reinforcing the disconnection between felt/observed bodily experience versus what we are told is supposedly happening by ‘the authorities’. I had all these thoughts around this latest storm which where I was in England was okay a bit windy but not something I’ve not experienced here before. Couldn’t help but think ‘oh dear’ about schools and other venues closing in preparation of the storm. Don’t think this kind of thing would have happened pre-2020! I haven’t looked at the weather forecast or a weather app for months and prefer to take a read of what the weather is doing with my own senses and body. Love you Terri, thanks for the birch balm recipe - I’m going to make that for my husband and son’s eczema! xx
I really love your stories (about weather alarms, "global warming"...), inviting people to claim their common sense. Love your recipes, too. Blessings from Serbia.
My first sighting of your black kitty, always sweet to see the other four legged family members. Your projects were perfect for a stormy day, so nice that you had supplies on hand. I think of a hot bath as a form of therapy.
Storm, snow... Fear mongering all around. And even though it's a strong wind, I'd say it's no much to be afraid of. Glad to see you in action, as always, both outside and inside. ❤️ Indeed, hard work needs several treats! I'm looking forward to seeing your new soaps. I loved making your Lavender ones! Take care☺️🏵️🌹
Great tutorials Terri. I have a massive crop of dandelions and so have learnt alot from you as to what to do with them. Love from New Zealand on a beautiful hot day
...and to your point as regards the dumbing down of society; folks just seem to loathe staying home, or providing for themselves these days. Almost a cult of nanny worship. There seems to be a weakness of faith in a higher power, (any kind of higher power) so people turn to governments. I was raised in the pacific northwest, where the native cultures lived next to us, and as a jest, these government "powers" were called "The Great Wokondahs", in deference to their utter unnecessary interference in the lives of those of us who lived close to the natural world. I lived 50 miles from Mt St Helens when it blew in 1980. Trust me, we didn't need municipal guidance to tell us not to go up there before it blew. Sheesh. Great video as usual!! Stay warm and dry!! (We started our seed greenhouse yesterday! Strawberries, chamomile, thyme, storage cabbage, and sweet peas! Lots more in the next wave next month. Also does the varietyof birch matter? We have a Dakota Birch we just planted 2 years ago...) Hugs!
Thank you, always, for your sharing your wisdom and your wonderful recipes! 🌿✨ And, my husband and I had to smile when we heard your comment on the nanny state. We couldn't agree with you more. 🙂
Terri I just love your videos. I especially enjoy the common sense remarks you make about this ridiculous world we live in right now. I LOVE how you explain things in simple useful terms. I started a soap business because of your guidance & inspiration. I bought one of your sprays for my Reiki practice and your books. Just today I made a dandelion root/leaf tincture. My husband and I want to come back to Ireland next year for our25th anniversary, I would love to meet you.
Ah, Terri. I always learn a great deal from your videos. Your knowledge and insight are very inspiring for this old mind. I’ve always been a lover of salves, soaps and such.. so this was a quite enjoyable video to watch. Black Spruce totally lifts me… it renews and gives me grounding again. Your comments on the “Nanny” state is spot on. It’s even worse here in the states. The saddest thing of all is that sooo many people are settling for this era of being told what to do like a child. Lord knows, if my parents and grandparents were alive today, they’d be quite shocked at how lax we’ve become. What ever happened to being an adult and making up your own mind? I pray the world will wake up. Many thanks and blessings your way, Terri! Please keep smiling and sharing your strong positive outlook! It’s so needed in this world we live in today. Oxo
Thank you Terri and Lol, for your beautiful and beneficial work for humanity and the earth! I agree Terri, so many people are so 'out of touch' with their soul and spirit and sadly Mother Earth / Father Sky. I am so happy to be in nature daily to sense and predict weather, tell time by the sun, hear the many messages from the animals and birds, and for me the deep love and knowledge of the plant and mineral kingdoms. All of this teaches me to be open to the greater realms and beings of benevolence. Thank you both for following your soul's journey ☘️🍀☘️
Hi Terri. I’m Linda from Texas, USA and so thankful to find your channel. I came across it while searching for healthy alternatives to taking blood pressure prescriptions which I don’t want to take. I ordered Hawthorn berry and now drink its tea along with eating dandelions, chickweed and clover I find in the yard. I am learning so much from your videos. My heritage is Irish and have visited. I loved it. I greatly appreciate your time in sharing your knowledge and experience. 🥰
It is my pleasure to leave a comment dear Terri! As a dermatologist, which I am, I truly love the balms you have prepared. Coconut oils and shea butter are a great base for them. Appart from being excellent emollients, they are a rich source of escential free fatty acids antioxidants and vitamins that keep our skin functional barrier healthy and immunocompetent. Love the videos!!
What a lovely life to live focused on nature and the gifts she gives. Thank you for sharing your recipes with us for healing remedies and skin care balms. No chemicals or complicated artificial ingredients, just the simple things that nature provides. I love it.
I love the simplicity on the salve I always find recipes that require more than just beeswax . You’ve inspired me to do them like these. Thank you so very much
Thank you Terri for another great, educational, helpful video, as always.❤️. Storm or no storm, your lovely place, garden, kitchen, your beautiful dogs, your warming voice, your caring, passionate personality just give us warmth. As for the storm “traffic lights”, you are so right. It is ridiculous indeed. It is a very lazy society. People rely on someone else to tell them how, what to think, what to do. Common sense has disappeared. I think common sense should be on the school curriculum. It should be prescribed by medical healthcare, as it is a vital part of our lives. We need to grow up! Anyway, thank you Terri!❤️
I agree with your nanny-state assessment of unnecessary weather warnings. People need to look outside and stand in the wind a bit. There ARE times and places for warnings: approaching blizzards, ice storms, sudden temperature drops and I am glad for that in order to plan my day and take care of animals. But overall, telling somebody to be careful because it's going to be windy and raining...really? Thanks for a lovely tutorial on how to make salves. It looks simple for a beginner like me!
Ha ha! "Really?" You are so right. It might do people some good to feel wind through their hair and feel the power of Nature. Don't be scared of making a salve - it is the simplest form of remedy . Have a go! xx
I absolutely love your videos Terri. They are so beautifully filmed and soothing and I never miss one. You inspire me so much in so many ways with your loveliness and your creativity.
Thank you! Yes, we are grown adults, we know how to care for ourselves and each-other. Let us all be free to garden and be in charge of our own health too. :)
I’ve been watching your channel for around a year , really enjoy watching you make lotions , potions and tinctures Have a lovely week from a very stormy and wet Derbyshire 🐝🌈🇬🇧
Absolutely agree on the nanny state. We get these hysterical warnings about snowstorms - in NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND. I mean, really. It snows here, people. A lot.
My grandmother used to make lye soap and pour it into little rose molds. Anything rose is a favorite, so I love the bath balms you've made, especially. I like the name of your academy -- Hawthorn is such a great heart tonic. I've been using it since having a certain virus and feel it strengthens me as I tire more easily and just need some heart healing in other ways, too. I love and appreciate Mother Nature so much! Thank you for your calm, informative, beautiful videos!
Hi Terri - I love seeing you make balms and things. I learn a lot from just watching you. I can imagine the bath bombs being so nice and great for the skin. I need to try making those. The cold winter air is always so harsh on the skin. I look forward to your videos. You always bring me joy. Hugs to you and the dogs. 💕🐶🪴 I’m so ready for Spring and warmer days filled with sunshine. ☀️😍
I think we have more in common than not, even with differing theological practices. Thank you for sharing this common sense wisdom. It's definitely a theme that runs through your work!
Thanks Terri. I love you videos and feel so in tune with your sentiments about not losing our ability to think for ourselves. It makes me laugh when my daughter asks what’s the weather? And I’ll look out the window and say oh it’s raining, meanwhile she’s looking it up on google!!!
It is sad isn't it - to see how the younger generation are a step removed and see the world through a screen. Screens are like an extra limb. We have an old set of encyclopedias and rarely look at it - we just use the computer. We are all terrible for looking for the easiest and quickest option. xx
I mark the days of heavy fog on my calendar, then watch around 90 days later for heavy rain. Also, when i see a colourful ring around the moon, usually within a dew days, there is a change in the weather. There are so many things to watch for...especially the behaviour of wildlife ❤
Hi Terri. I love what you said about the dumbing down of society. It is definitely happening. We got hit pretty bad with the storm here in our part of West Clare but it didn't stop my housemate and I from being outside, mixing concrete for a base for my IBS tanks which I'm going to use to collect rainwater for my veg garden. Sure we had to shout at one another because of the wind and we got soaked through but we were perfectly safe. One of the local ladies even went out for her daily walk. She is not fazed by a storm either. One just has to use common sense, no need for colour coded warnings.
love the add of the rose petals and poppy seed...the great thing about making your own, is that if a wee one would get a hold of it and eat some of it, they are going to get sick or worse die.! Here in the states we have had a problem with children eating tide laundry pods. When I was little I KNEW not to eat soap. Which is probably why we now have wind warnings and burn warnings for our yard waste.
Ah, such a truly marvellous and lovely video, **Terri** - as they always are actually 😁...!! And, am sincerely so delightedly relieved to see that you-and-yours have all made it, well unscathed, through Eunice's uninvited visit upon us: blessed be😊; happily, Colette-and-hers as well, @Bealtaine Cottage, having now also viewed her "Storm Eunice" video-vlogs ☺...! ~With much love 💚💖🧡💖💚 ( ...It was so cute btw how the doggies were intently watching you working in the garden; kitty however seemed to prefer just catching a bit of kip up 😀.... )
Thank you Terri. 🙂 Cocoa and she's butters are my favorites too, especially at this time of year. I should say that my skin likes them better. I completely agree about being dumbed down. That joke was 😆😂 I used to ask my mom if it was cold outside. She'd say, "Well, go outside an find out!"😀 Blessings! 💜
So nice to make salves. I will make this recipe this week.....seems nice. You are absolutely right about dumb downing people......red code, orange code. .It is just ridiculous. Thank you for this wonderful video.💜☀️🌱
Good Sunday morning, my Lovely 😍. The Shingles I had on my face has gone completely within 6 days thanks to self healing with Nature's gifts. Now to make some of your wonderful balm for my skin, I have Ichthyosis and your recipe sounds like the best. Sending Reiki, Celestial Blessings and Elemental Embraces and Love. Amanda. Xxx
Oh that was lovely and calming 😌 I bet they smell wonderful. Just what I needed as the rain water drips into buckets where the storm took the felt off my flat roof. Your healing powers really flow out in your videos. Thank you and blessings.
Lovely to see you again and thank you for sharing your knowledge. I usually have a coffee whilst watching your videos. And I feel like I’m with you in your kitchen. Take care.
Thank you Terry, always inspiring!!. Looking forward to spring🌱🙏🏽🍀… getter ing new leafs from the birch and bramble ‘s etc.. and Yesss, what you said about the weather for-cast.. amazing people also get ‘tricked’ there and don’t trust there one feelings .. go back ‘home’.. !!… love all you and your husband bring us, Much thanks💛🍀
Hello Terri ! Just found you on the TH-cam and love watching and learning from your nature spirit. I am going to make some birch leaf salve. I am watching this in Kentucky but I come from Finland and we love our birches there. Thank you for all you do to continue teaching about the wisdom of Nature.
I feel the weather information could be more Down to Earth … defining their hows and whys… in order for greater understanding and learning…. When I was younger… I used breathing as a calming tool…. That came naturally…. Now in my 40s am grateful for the reminders on breathing …. And the hand holding ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I agree! It feels like we are constantly being trained to ignore our instincts and stop thinking for ourselves. (I can’t believe how much my spelling skills have suffered since spell check was invented.) Thank you for helping to keep herbal remedies alive on our little planet!
I look forward to your videos every Sunday morning Terri. I enjoyed the recipes today. You feel like an old friend. Have a lovely week. See you next Sunday 👋❤🤗
Hello Terry. Beautiful video. I learn much from what you do and teach us. We are coming to the end of summer here and the weather is extremely strange. You live in a beautiful place. I expect to visit Ireland if the pandemic let us. See you.
Dear danu irish i like your fairy in your garden i am starting up a herb garden in March at our local church cant wait so i can make some wonderful things for our community wendy.
Thanks for sharing your wonderful and magic balms. ..I ll try them!! And yes now we need to be told how is the weather and a couple of things. ..part of the plan! !! Keep smiling my lovely Terri. ..big hugs
Hello, it is sad to think that anyone would think of treating themselves to what is good for them as being selfish…society really is in a sad way. I love your videos, Thank you!
Well that's what it is conditioned into many people - women in particular. It is sad. But I think when we are feeling happy and content and rested, we are much more use to others. xx
That was a great video Terri thanks and I agree entirely about the nanny state,...it was just like " winnie the poo and the blustery day " which was a video I used to watch with kids 30 years ago.....now it would be winnie the poo and the Amber weather warning 😅
Ha ha! Read children's books from 30 years ago or earlier and it really brings home how dumbed down we are becoming and how infantilised our children are. xxx Have a great week x
Wonderful timing. My daughter's finally getting into making our personal care products, I'd like to think in part due to your video's and influence. I've been hoping she would because then we both can experiment and enjoy the experience together. Sending you and all much love! 💖💖💖
Terri I feel you and I would be great friends! I love how you describe our current state of affairs and how "we need to be told what to do" it's just ridiculous here in the U.S. too and we are at our wits end. I feel so relaxed when I watch your videos, I am even starting a soap making business after being inspired by you. So thank-you!
Ive judt discovered your videos. Im really enjoying them and learning about herbs and herbal medicine x thank you souch for sharing your videos xmany blessings ❤
Thank you Terry for the easy done things you do! Here in Sweden we have snow and hard grounds. So I am up to with collecting birch buds to make a tasty herbal salt. I put it in small tiny bottles and use them as presents. And I Will make some soap as well. Still have a little birc SAP left in the freezer. I make your cocnut soap an put powdered rose , calendula or nettle in to it. And an infusion of these herbs. And the soaps last for a long time. I use flower molds and massage soap molds. I love them because they are not scented. I hope I can go to Ireland this year and enjoy nature and riding . Maria one of your fan 🤗
Thank you Terri, We are supposed to get 6 to 9 inches of snow tonight and tomorrow, sounds like a perfect project! I agree about the nanny state, I like just getting a heads up, I'll take it from there on, if I stay in or go out. The old saying goes, "there are only bad clothing choices, not bad weather". Have food on hand gives you that choice to hunker down and ride it out instead "have to" go out. In my area, you see people wearing shorts, and no jacket in the winter (sub zero temps), clearly they have a lot of trust in technology not failing. Me not so much.
Wonderful video, thank you. These will make a nice gift for my mother and other garden loving friends. I wish I lived close as I would love to train with you in person.
How lovely! The oil has such a beautiful color. I'm excited to try this and use the bars as lotion bars as well ~ Also, I absolutely agree with and resonate with your thoughts on the dumbing down. I laugh, sometimes, when I find myself looking at my weather app too much!
I'm swooning over the emerald color of that birch oil! I started studying herbalism a couple of years ago and had only heard of using birch bark, I didn't know that the leaves could be used medicinally as well. That must be where the gorgeous green comes from. Thank you for sharing about the leaves!
Good morning Terry. I’m happy to hear the storm didn’t bring any damage to your property. I’m on the Atlantic coast of Canada, so we got it just before it headed off across the ocean. Lots of very high winds and buckets of rain. I was able to see some bare ground in the garden, but it snowed last night, so the white blanket is back. It will be April before we’re able to plant a few peas and greens, but the first of my leek seeds have germinated, and I’ll be planting more today along with onion seeds. I managed to make lots of tinctures last fall, and have plans for loads more this year. Lemon balm is my favourite-and most used-but the lavender and rose tinctures are so beautiful. I had my first (very small) crop of stinging nettles, so just a small amount from that. Don’t you love it when a creative streak hits? It helps us get through the long winters here. Thanks for all the sharing and teaching you do to make the world a better place. Happy creating!
@@julie-annepineau4022 indeed! Many roads were running like rivers, and the rivers were flooding their banks. I’m amazed the trees held in the wind. I had to sleep downstairs as the howling kept me awake. We’re in southern New Brunswick🙂
Hello , I live in France near Germany , I love your videos , I love where you live , I love your recipes .My neighbor lent me a little garden so i can grow my vegetables and flowers and little fruits like strawberries and raspberries .I made also some Hypericum oil and some calendula oil.This year I will try some salves from your recipes.Thank you so much .
Hi Terri...glad alls well where you are ...thank you for sharing your beautiful lotions ...its always a delight and informative ...the recipes go into my little book 📖🌿 ☺..blessings 🥰.....much love ❤
I love your teachings and learning about all the benefits and processes of plants as food and medicine = health, wellness, and wellbeing 💗🥰💗 I also appreciate all of your honesty! I just chuckle 🤭 when you speak truth = it’s so spot on! Thank You
What a delightful way to spend a stormy day. I bet your kitchen smelt wonderful!! Also, thanks for the birch recipe - that's one I've not used but surely will now.
It’s lovely to see how others do these things and what they use. Thank you for sharing. When I add add rose petals to anything it’s for a bit of self love 💜…I’ve been slacking…getting my butt in gear to prepare for our Spring! Still to cold and snowy here but temps are slowly rising….Thanks for the inspiration 😊 have a great week!
Recent follower here from across the pond. Absolutely love your videos! The very sound of your voice is a calming balm. My husband has referred to your videos as "my Zen moments" and will often meander into the room himself, as if called, by your intro music. Thank you so much for sharing your wisdom and your magical little homestead with the world!
That music has some kind of magic doesn’t it? Matches the scenery so perfectly. Wish I could have visited Ireland before all this insanity hit. From across the pond in NE.
Thanks so much Terri I will try both of these recipes. Appreciate as always your wisdom and I love listening to you. Also totally agree about this ‘Nanny State’! 😣
Im so grateful to you Terri. You are a truly inspiring lady ( with very beautiful hair!) Im consuming all your videos like a mad woman😂❤ Its so refreshing to see your appreciation of our beautiful mother and all her magical gifts. Wouldn't it be wonderful if we could all reclaim our respect and knowledge! Much love and blessings ❤❤
I agree with you regarding the weather warnings. I stopped paying attention to them years ago when I realized they were dictating my decision making. At one point in my life I had a job that no matter the weather I had to go out in it and more often than not what " they" had predicted was very much exaggerated. I free-ed myself from mainstream media altogether Thank you once again for the lovely video Teri. Love from Canada 🇨🇦
Lovely to get on with some indoor creative jobs during the storm. I've never used birch. Thankyou for the information on that. I'll be giving it a go How I agree with you about the colour coded warnings. We had a red warning here in Cornwall, but you only had to look out of the window and use your common sense to know it wasn't a gardening day! We're not being trusted to think for ourselves anymore, which is very sad
I love your videos, to see your doggies living a good life and your land how you take care of it. Your content is fun and informative and I want to I corporate many of your ideas into my life. It's inspiring and positive. I live in Pennsylvania. Thank you so much!
Such a lovely video, thankyou. I'll definitely give that balm recipe a go. Human intuition doesn't seem to get a look in these days, you're so right about the colour weather warnings. Slàn
Thank you Terri for another brilliant and interesting video . I agree with what you mentioned about being told what we should do during storms . A lot of it is common sense . Thank you again . Keep safe xxx
![ปฏิเสธไม่ไหว (Crush on you) - LIPTA feat. No One Else [TEASER MV]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/VC689EgdSIw/mqdefault.jpg)
Neat! YOU'VE been a balm for me this past year.
Aw Shirley - that's a lovely thing to say. Thank you xxx Much love to you and blessings for health and happiness x
Forgot to thank Lol for his beautiful music and comforting and sensitive camera work 🥰 Your dogs are also the sweetest 🐶🐕
I enjoyed this video! I love making things the way of our ancestors! I have friends that get certain gifts, because they claim that it helps them.
Your so right about dumbing down society Terri, here in Australia every TV. Commercial is telling us what to do, how to do it... even how to watch out for spoilt food or how to wash your hands etc etc, everywhere you go constant bombardment... I end up ranting randomly 🤔😂😩, love the salves
Unbelievable - and that is your money they are using!!
Agreed
Love your videos. Have made several recipes.
Yes. Sadly, they are programming a lot of people, to do what they are told, to be afraid … they have an agenda🙁
Completely agree about how we’ve got to a place where colour-coding systems now determine people’s actions, reinforcing the disconnection between felt/observed bodily experience versus what we are told is supposedly happening by ‘the authorities’.
I had all these thoughts around this latest storm which where I was in England was okay a bit windy but not something I’ve not experienced here before. Couldn’t help but think ‘oh dear’ about schools and other venues closing in preparation of the storm. Don’t think this kind of thing would have happened pre-2020!
I haven’t looked at the weather forecast or a weather app for months and prefer to take a read of what the weather is doing with my own senses and body.
Love you Terri, thanks for the birch balm recipe - I’m going to make that for my husband and son’s eczema! xx
Very well said Lethesiana re weather - nothing we haven't experienced before. So much better to trust our own senses. xx
Totally agree!
You are so awake Terry xx🙏💚
She is, and I Love it when she gives a little poke at the over bearing govenments & big pharma Lol. She's the best!
I really love your stories (about weather alarms, "global warming"...), inviting people to claim their common sense. Love your recipes, too. Blessings from Serbia.
My first sighting of your black kitty, always sweet to see the other four legged family members. Your projects were perfect for a stormy day, so nice that you had supplies on hand. I think of a hot bath as a form of therapy.
Your Daffodils are in bloom early.They look lovely.
Yes Pauline - they perk us up on grey days.xx
Storm, snow... Fear mongering all around. And even though it's a strong wind, I'd say it's no much to be afraid of. Glad to see you in action, as always, both outside and inside. ❤️ Indeed, hard work needs several treats!
I'm looking forward to seeing your new soaps. I loved making your Lavender ones! Take care☺️🏵️🌹
You too Maria - I will show you the new soap in another video. Slightly different recipe but turned out well.
Great tutorials Terri. I have a massive crop of dandelions and so have learnt alot from you as to what to do with them. Love from New Zealand on a beautiful hot day

Hi Linda, welcome to the channel - I hope it is helpful to you. Glad to hear you are managing your blood pressure - plants have so much to offer us xx
Howdy! Central Texas here.

So inspirational to watch
Thank you…a Hot bath with some bath balms sounds lovely right now…cold and rainy, couldn’t get out to my garden today. 🙏🏻💕❤️
I absolutely love your videos Terri. They are so beautifully filmed and soothing and I never miss one. You inspire me so much in so many ways with your loveliness and your creativity.
Thanks so much Victoria, for your kind words. You're making me blush. Glad you are enjoying them xx
Thank you! Yes, we are grown adults, we know how to care for ourselves and each-other. Let us all be free to garden and be in charge of our own health too. :)

I’ve been watching your channel for around a year , really enjoy watching you make lotions , potions and tinctures
Have a lovely week from a very stormy and wet Derbyshire 🐝🌈🇬🇧
❤
🤣 " . . . breathe in, breathe . . . "
😢 dumbing down
Yes! Look about! Be Aware! Follow ones intuition, instincts, gut feeling! ❤
Absolutely agree on the nanny state. We get these hysterical warnings about snowstorms - in NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND. I mean, really. It snows here, people. A lot.
Ha ha! Same here on our west coast - we get wind regularly! They must think we were too busy watching TV to notice what is happening outside.😅
My grandmother used to make lye soap and pour it into little rose molds. Anything rose is a favorite, so I love the bath balms you've made, especially. I like the name of your academy -- Hawthorn is such a great heart tonic. I've been using it since having a certain virus and feel it strengthens me as I tire more easily and just need some heart healing in other ways, too. I love and appreciate Mother Nature so much! Thank you for your calm, informative, beautiful videos!
Great to hear that you are using the Hawthorn!
Hi Terri - I love seeing you make balms and things. I learn a lot from just watching you. I can imagine the bath bombs being so nice and great for the skin. I need to try making those. The cold winter air is always so harsh on the skin.
I look forward to your videos. You always bring me joy. Hugs to you and the dogs. 💕🐶🪴 I’m so ready for Spring and warmer days filled with sunshine. ☀️😍
I think we have more in common than not, even with differing theological practices. Thank you for sharing this common sense wisdom. It's definitely a theme that runs through your work!
Great to be friends despite our differences. We don't want to be all the same - we would be like clones!😀 xx
Thanks Terri. I love you videos and feel so in tune with your sentiments about not losing our ability to think for ourselves. It makes me laugh when my daughter asks what’s the weather? And I’ll look out the window and say oh it’s raining, meanwhile she’s looking it up on google!!!
It is sad isn't it - to see how the younger generation are a step removed and see the world through a screen. Screens are like an extra limb. We have an old set of encyclopedias and rarely look at it - we just use the computer. We are all terrible for looking for the easiest and quickest option. xx
I mark the days of heavy fog on my calendar, then watch around 90 days later for heavy rain.
Also, when i see a colourful ring around the moon, usually within a dew days, there is a change in the weather.
There are so many things to watch for...especially the behaviour of wildlife ❤
You are right - moon and wildlife are great indicators. xx
Natural self care 🧖🏼♀️ thank you so much ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊
You are so welcome
Hi Terri. I love what you said about the dumbing down of society. It is definitely happening.
We got hit pretty bad with the storm here in our part of West Clare but it didn't stop my housemate and I from being outside, mixing concrete for a base for my IBS tanks which I'm going to use to collect rainwater for my veg garden. Sure we had to shout at one another because of the wind and we got soaked through but we were perfectly safe. One of the local ladies even went out for her daily walk. She is not fazed by a storm either. One just has to use common sense, no need for colour coded warnings.
I love watching you make natural body products .
Glad you enjoy them. xx
Very inspiring. Windy day here in north west Tasmania too. I love watching your videos, no matter what they are. Thanks for making them.
Thanks so much for watching. Glad you like them xx
wonderful ideas,dear Terri,thanks a lot..............Blessings and Greetings from Daggy from Kiel,Germany..Take care of you.....☘☘☘
Hey Daggy - blessings to you and yours. xxx
love the add of the rose petals and poppy seed...the great thing about making your own, is that if a wee one would get a hold of it and eat some of it, they are going to get sick or worse die.! Here in the states we have had a problem with children eating tide laundry pods. When I was little I KNEW not to eat soap. Which is probably why we now have wind warnings and burn warnings for our yard waste.
Ah, such a truly marvellous and lovely video, **Terri** - as they always are actually 😁...!! And, am sincerely so delightedly relieved to see that you-and-yours have all made it, well unscathed, through Eunice's uninvited visit upon us: blessed be😊; happily, Colette-and-hers as well, @Bealtaine Cottage, having now also viewed her "Storm Eunice" video-vlogs ☺...! ~With much love 💚💖🧡💖💚 ( ...It was so cute btw how the doggies were intently watching you working in the garden; kitty however seemed to prefer just catching a bit of kip up 😀.... )
I love the idea of the bath melts, thank you!
Stay safe and warm🥰
You too little Imp. Try them yourself and spoil yourself. xx
Thank you Terri. 🙂
Cocoa and she's butters are my favorites too, especially at this time of year. I should say that my skin likes them better.
I completely agree about being dumbed down. That joke was 😆😂 I used to ask my mom if it was cold outside. She'd say, "Well, go outside an find out!"😀
Blessings! 💜
I absolutely ADORE your energy
What a beautiful soul u are ....🌿⚘🍃⚘🌻☘⚘🍀⚘🍂⚘🌳🌻🍃🌷🍂⚘🍃⚘
Thank you Giuditta, so glad you feel that. xx
So nice to make salves. I will make this recipe this week.....seems nice. You are absolutely right about dumb downing people......red code, orange code. .It is just ridiculous. Thank you for this wonderful video.💜☀️🌱
Hello Yamina - it is ridiculous. Enjoy your salve making! xx
Good Sunday morning, my Lovely 😍. The Shingles I had on my face has gone completely within 6 days thanks to self healing with Nature's gifts. Now to make some of your wonderful balm for my skin, I have Ichthyosis and your recipe sounds like the best. Sending Reiki, Celestial Blessings and Elemental Embraces and Love. Amanda. Xxx
Thank you so much for all your healing blessings. Glad you are recovered and so quickly!! Stay well Amanda xx
I always come away so grounded after enjoying your videos, thank you so very much❤️🙏🏼🇺🇸
Oh that was lovely and calming 😌
I bet they smell wonderful. Just what I needed as the rain water drips into buckets where the storm took the felt off my flat roof. Your healing powers really flow out in your videos. Thank you and blessings.
Oh so glad to hear that. Sending love and best wishes and hope your roof is fixed easily and quickly. xx
Lovely to see you again and thank you for sharing your knowledge. I usually have a coffee whilst watching your videos. And I feel like I’m with you in your kitchen. Take care.
That's a cosy image - friends in the kitchen while make lovely things. Followed by a nice cup of tea I hope! xx
Very true words Terri they love feeding us fear thanks for your knowledge have a good day love to you xxx
They certainly do - one way or another! Take no notice and run your life your own way - love to you too xxx
@@DanusIrishHerbGarden I do Terri as you yourself does xxx
🥰 I love and appreciate you so much! So glad to find your channel. 🙏 You will intrinsically be one of the mentors I will cherish always.
Thank you Terry, always inspiring!!. Looking forward to spring🌱🙏🏽🍀… getter ing new leafs from the birch and bramble ‘s etc.. and Yesss, what you said about the weather for-cast.. amazing people also get ‘tricked’ there and don’t trust there one feelings .. go back ‘home’.. !!… love all you and your husband bring us, Much thanks💛🍀
Thanks Gaby, glad to hear you are enjoying the videos. Definitely! We can really only rely on our intuition and develop our own common sense. xx
Lovely video and totally agree with you about being told to stay indoors. We can see for ourselves what’s going on out there
It is irritating eventually, being told how to think. Have a lovely week! xx
@@DanusIrishHerbGarden it’s very irritating but Iv learnt to block it out and live my life my way . Enjoy your week and stay warm
Hello Terri ! Just found you on the TH-cam and love watching and learning from your nature spirit. I am going to make some birch leaf salve.
I am watching this in Kentucky but I come from Finland and we love our birches there.
Thank you for all you do to continue teaching about the wisdom of Nature.
I feel the weather information could be more Down to Earth … defining their hows and whys… in order for greater understanding and learning….
When I was younger… I used breathing as a calming tool…. That came naturally…. Now in my 40s am grateful for the reminders on breathing …. And the hand holding ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I agree! It feels like we are constantly being trained to ignore our instincts and stop thinking for ourselves. (I can’t believe how much my spelling skills have suffered since spell check was invented.) Thank you for helping to keep herbal remedies alive on our little planet!
I look forward to your videos every Sunday morning Terri. I enjoyed the recipes today. You feel like an old friend. Have a lovely week. See you next Sunday 👋❤🤗
You too Sandra - an old friend. xx
Hello Terry. Beautiful video. I learn much from what you do and teach us. We are coming to the end of summer here and the weather is extremely strange. You live in a beautiful place. I expect to visit Ireland if the pandemic let us. See you.
Thanks Su!
Dear danu irish i like your fairy in your garden i am starting up a herb garden in March at our local church cant wait so i can make some wonderful things for our community wendy.
Best of luck with that Wendy. Hope it all works out and your garden is abundant. xx
Thanks for sharing your wonderful and magic balms. ..I ll try them!!
And yes now we need to be told how is the weather and a couple of things. ..part of the plan! !!
Keep smiling my lovely Terri. ..big hugs
Yes olga - keep smiling and keep practising autonomy xx big hugs to you too. xx
Hello, it is sad to think that anyone would think of treating themselves to what is good for them as being selfish…society really is in a sad way.
I love your videos, Thank you!
Well that's what it is conditioned into many people - women in particular. It is sad. But I think when we are feeling happy and content and rested, we are much more use to others. xx
Teri, thank you for expressing your views on this, I couldn’t agree more! So much dumbing down, treating us like idiots! Much love! X🌀
Love to you too Miranda! Have a great week.x
Yes you are so right, they move people away from their intuition and own knowing….
We could be encouraging people to develop that type of intelligence! xx
That was a great video Terri thanks and I agree entirely about the nanny state,...it was just like " winnie the poo and the blustery day " which was a video I used to watch with kids 30 years ago.....now it would be winnie the poo and the Amber weather warning 😅
Ha ha! Read children's books from 30 years ago or earlier and it really brings home how dumbed down we are becoming and how infantilised our children are. xxx Have a great week x
@@DanusIrishHerbGarden Thanks Terri ! You too...I'm doing the assignment right now for Module 1 !! :) xx
😊❤
Wonderful timing. My daughter's finally getting into making our personal care products, I'd like to think in part due to your video's and influence. I've been hoping she would because then we both can experiment and enjoy the experience together. Sending you and all much love! 💖💖💖
That will be lovely - I enjoyed that when my daughter was young.
Terri I feel you and I would be great friends! I love how you describe our current state of affairs and how "we need to be told what to do" it's just ridiculous here in the U.S. too and we are at our wits end.
I feel so relaxed when I watch your videos, I am even starting a soap making business after being inspired by you. So thank-you!
That's wonderful Brenda! Congratulations xx
Hi Terri, totally agree re. Weather , love your programme 🍃🌼🍃
Ive judt discovered your videos. Im really enjoying them and learning about herbs and herbal medicine x thank you souch for sharing your videos xmany blessings ❤
Thank you Terry for the easy done things you do!
Here in Sweden we have snow and hard grounds. So I am up to with collecting birch buds to make a tasty herbal salt. I put it in small tiny bottles and use them as presents. And I Will make some soap as well. Still have a little birc SAP left in the freezer. I make your cocnut soap an put powdered rose , calendula or nettle in to it. And an infusion of these herbs. And the soaps last for a long time. I use flower molds and massage soap molds. I love them because they are not scented. I hope I can go to Ireland this year and enjoy nature and riding .
Maria one of your fan 🤗
Beautiful!
Thank you Terri, We are supposed to get 6 to 9 inches of snow tonight and tomorrow, sounds like a perfect project! I agree about the nanny state, I like just getting a heads up, I'll take it from there on, if I stay in or go out. The old saying goes, "there are only bad clothing choices, not bad weather". Have food on hand gives you that choice to hunker down and ride it out instead "have to" go out. In my area, you see people wearing shorts, and no jacket in the winter (sub zero temps), clearly they have a lot of trust in technology not failing. Me not so much.
We know that saying very well. I agree with you - people are far too reliant.
Wonderful video, thank you. These will make a nice gift for my mother and other garden loving friends. I wish I lived close as I would love to train with you in person.
Thank you for the lovely recipes!
You're welcome!
How lovely! The oil has such a beautiful color. I'm excited to try this and use the bars as lotion bars as well ~
Also, I absolutely agree with and resonate with your thoughts on the dumbing down. I laugh, sometimes, when I find myself looking at my weather app too much!
I'm swooning over the emerald color of that birch oil! I started studying herbalism a couple of years ago and had only heard of using birch bark, I didn't know that the leaves could be used medicinally as well. That must be where the gorgeous green comes from. Thank you for sharing about the leaves!
It is a lovely colour - partly the Birch but also it is the EV olive oil. Hope you get to make some xx
Good morning Terry. I’m happy to hear the storm didn’t bring any damage to your property. I’m on the Atlantic coast of Canada, so we got it just before it headed off across the ocean. Lots of very high winds and buckets of rain. I was able to see some bare ground in the garden, but it snowed last night, so the white blanket is back. It will be April before we’re able to plant a few peas and greens, but the first of my leek seeds have germinated, and I’ll be planting more today along with onion seeds.
I managed to make lots of tinctures last fall, and have plans for loads more this year. Lemon balm is my favourite-and most used-but the lavender and rose tinctures are so beautiful. I had my first (very small) crop of stinging nettles, so just a small amount from that.
Don’t you love it when a creative streak hits? It helps us get through the long winters here. Thanks for all the sharing and teaching you do to make the world a better place. Happy creating!
Hi Rose, yes I do love to get the creative head on! It definitely brings a feeling of satisfaction. Good luck with your garden.xx
It caused a lot of flooding here in PEI. I was so nice to see the ground under some of the snow though.
@@julie-annepineau4022 indeed! Many roads were running like rivers, and the rivers were flooding their banks. I’m amazed the trees held in the wind. I had to sleep downstairs as the howling kept me awake. We’re in southern New Brunswick🙂
Love the natural skincare product videos, I have made quite a few of your recipes and they are wonderful. Thank you for sharing. 🌱🙏🏽💚🌱🙏🏽🌱💚🌱🙏🏽🌱💚
Thank you Suzanne. Natural skin care is so wonderful and good for us. Empowering too.! xx
Hello , I live in France near Germany , I love your videos , I love where you live , I love your recipes .My neighbor lent me a little garden so i can grow my vegetables and flowers and little fruits like strawberries and raspberries .I made also some Hypericum oil and some calendula oil.This year I will try some salves from your recipes.Thank you so much .
Another informative and wonderful video. Also, thank you for the recipes.
My pleasure - enjoy them xx
Hi Terri...glad alls well where you are ...thank you for sharing your beautiful lotions ...its always a delight and informative ...the recipes go into my little book 📖🌿 ☺..blessings 🥰.....much love ❤
All well here - hope same for you Angela. Love the idea of your book with recipes - I have one too. xx
I love your teachings and learning about all the benefits and processes of plants as food and medicine = health, wellness, and wellbeing 💗🥰💗 I also appreciate all of your honesty! I just chuckle 🤭 when you speak truth = it’s so spot on!
Thank You
What a delightful way to spend a stormy day. I bet your kitchen smelt wonderful!! Also, thanks for the birch recipe - that's one I've not used but surely will now.
It was just a lovely way to spend a day and end up with something nice. xx
It’s lovely to see how others do these things and what they use. Thank you for sharing. When I add add rose petals to anything it’s for a bit of self love 💜…I’ve been slacking…getting my butt in gear to prepare for our Spring! Still to cold and snowy here but temps are slowly rising….Thanks for the inspiration 😊 have a great week!
I think we all need some self-love and nothing nicer than rose petals. Have a wonderful week with your preparations. xx
Thank you for the idea of birch leaf oil, I have never heard of it.
You're welcome. The Birch leaf or little twigs are covered with olive oil and left to infuse for 6 weeks. xx
Awww hope your kitty is inside 💗
Thank you for sharing! Love your videos
Thank you Sara! xx
Recent follower here from across the pond. Absolutely love your videos! The very sound of your voice is a calming balm. My husband has referred to your videos as "my Zen moments" and will often meander into the room himself, as if called, by your intro music. Thank you so much for sharing your wisdom and your magical little homestead with the world!
Welcome Gloominusdm. That is wonderful to hear, love what your husband has to say. xx
That music has some kind of magic doesn’t it? Matches the scenery so perfectly.
Wish I could have visited Ireland before all this insanity hit. From across the pond in NE.
Thanks so much Terri I will try both of these recipes. Appreciate as always your wisdom and I love listening to you. Also totally agree about this ‘Nanny State’! 😣
Enjoy your creativity Lolly xx thanks for watching!
Nothing green here in Nebraska yet - and too cold to get outside.
Starting lots of seeds and sweet potato slips. Always love your videos.
Thanks Viola!
Thanks Terri..i'm laughing out loud on the bus here
Glad you enjoyed it😂
Im so grateful to you Terri. You are a truly inspiring lady ( with very beautiful hair!) Im consuming all your videos like a mad woman😂❤
Its so refreshing to see your appreciation of our beautiful mother and all her magical gifts.
Wouldn't it be wonderful if we could all reclaim our respect and knowledge! Much love and blessings ❤❤
It most certainly would. Keep our fingers crossed xx
I agree with you regarding the weather warnings. I stopped paying attention to them years ago when I realized they were dictating my decision making. At one point in my life I had a job that no matter the weather I had to go out in it and more often than not what " they" had predicted was very much exaggerated. I free-ed myself from mainstream media altogether Thank you once again for the lovely video Teri. Love from Canada 🇨🇦
Yes! We ditched the mainstream years ago as well. Been watching livestreams from your country that really show the mainstream lies for what they are.
Thank you so much for all your videos..l just love watching them and your dogs too ..Have a warm Blessed Day..
Lovely to get on with some indoor creative jobs during the storm. I've never used birch. Thankyou for the information on that. I'll be giving it a go
How I agree with you about the colour coded warnings. We had a red warning here in Cornwall, but you only had to look out of the window and use your common sense to know it wasn't a gardening day! We're not being trusted to think for ourselves anymore, which is very sad
Thank you for sharing your lovely recipes.
I love your videos, to see your doggies living a good life and your land how you take care of it. Your content is fun and informative and I want to I corporate many of your ideas into my life. It's inspiring and positive. I live in Pennsylvania.
Thank you so much!
Such a lovely video, thankyou. I'll definitely give that balm recipe a go. Human intuition doesn't seem to get a look in these days, you're so right about the colour weather warnings. Slàn
Let me know how your balm turns out. Human intuition seems to be being phased out??!!😳
Good evening Terri, I’m relatively new to your videos but just wanted to say how relaxing they all are. Blessings from England
Hello Paul, thank you! So glad you find them relaxing and enjoyable. xx
Thank you Terri for another brilliant and interesting video . I agree with what you mentioned about being told what we should do during storms . A lot of it is common sense . Thank you again . Keep safe xxx
Hi Melanie - hope all is well with you. xx
Beautiful ❤️ Thank you Terri ❤️ Much Love to you always ❤️❤️❤️
Dear Abby, thanks to you too and sending love and blessings xx
