- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 29 ก.ย. 2024
- A little while ago I began my journey of studying herbalism, and it was intimidating to begin. I wanted to share some resources and encouragement for those just beginning their studies or those overwhelmed by all the options. There are plenty of resources and places to begin, these are merely just a few that I have found helpful!

One comment - I saw that you were only drying chamomile flowers. Which, they’re great for headaches and mild tension. But the dried stems, if steeped, can help with period cramps. I had a Mexican-American roommate and it was her go-to for cramps.
Oh wow! I didn’t know that, thank you!
one book you should keep in your library is "herbal antibiotics" by Stephen Bohner
I’ve been really getting into herbalism and holistic medicine for a few months so this video is so helpful thank you❤
Great place for someone to start the herbalism journey!
You have a wonderful voice and your pretty to look at. Your going to do great things. Hope all your dreams come true.
Thanks for sharing.
You should take Dr. Patrick Jones HomeGrown Herbalist School of Botanical Medicine. I love what you do. It tells you how each herb works with the body.
You deserve so much more support. Interesting what you tell us all
Hi I like your channel on TH-cam now myself I go out foraging for natural herbs herbs you need to get yourself a dehydrator
Thank You for this information, very helpfully especially the great ETSY find. Appreciated
What are herbs used for?
Ahh for meds😅
Noice vid as always🎉
Just found you! Thank you for the gentle approach to teaching. I already own several of your book resources and looking forward to future pod casts, and expanding my knowledge of God’s natural remedies.
I’m glad this was helpful! God has given us so many resources and it’s exciting to learn about all the natural remedies! 😄
Im interested in using different herbs for cooking, im also interested in medicinal properties so i can make healthier meal options, i have decided this year to not eat out, and only eat home cooked foods
Make you a smoke box to put your herbs in it works get some t i n siding make a box keep it about 80° should work out fine😊
You should not dry herbs in the sun it cooks the life out of them.
Yeah, I learned that sun drying takes a lot of the flavor out, but right now it’s the best option we have until we get a dehydrator. The chamomile we sun dried still tastes really nice so it’s working for now 😆
I agree. Thank you for saying so 🙏😅

If you are only doing small-medium quantities, I got a circular mesh hanger for drying herbs on Amazon (until I can get a bigger setup on shelves with screening). It works really well for that qtt. I hang it on my window curtain rod that I close to keep the sun off it and keep the ceiling fan on for a few days after harvesting fresh herbs or flowers. I add paper towel for this fine herbs or flowers that would fall through the mesh, like chamomile, (or sometimes also just dry those separately on my baking trays lined with either dish towel or paper towel, and under the ceiling fan). It works really well. And it’s out of the way. Bonus: No chance of getting rained on. 😉☺️
Thank you for your video and suggestions❤
Heidi Villegas course at healing harvest is awesome. You have lifelong access to materials, student groups and you can do a certification course that does not cost an arm and a leg.
The best information I came across looking at different courses. You can do the course at your own pace and she also have payment plans available
That’s amazing!! I’ll check that out, thank you so much! 😁
Tysm! Bless you❤
So stressful. 😬
