Personalized Guidance
Our Herbal Support Finder matches you with herbs based on your wellness goals, health profile, and medications.
Some roots are very potent — follow specific dosing guidelines for individual herbs. Avoid decocting herbs with volatile oils (peppermint, chamomile) as you will lose the beneficial compounds.
Refrigerate and use within 48-72 hours. Can be gently reheated.
Kettle or pot, Mug or teapot, Strainer or tea infuser, Measuring spoon
Start with a small amount to check for any sensitivity. Not all herbs are suitable for tea preparation — some require alcohol extraction (tincture) for full potency.
Drink fresh or refrigerate for up to 48 hours. Dried herbs should be stored in airtight containers away from light.
Quality essential oils from reputable source, Carrier oil (jojoba, sweet almond, coconut), Diffuser (for aromatherapy), Dark glass bottles
NEVER apply undiluted essential oils to skin (except Lavender/Tea Tree in small amounts). NEVER ingest essential oils without professional guidance. Keep away from eyes, inner ears, and mucous membranes. Some oils are toxic to pets (especially cats). NEVER use near the face of infants/toddlers.
Store in dark glass bottles away from heat and light. Most oils last 1-3 years. Citrus oils oxidize faster (6-12 months).
