- What is a herbal tea?
A herbal tea, which is also known as ‘tisane’, is a beverage made by infusing herbs, spices, or other plant materials in hot water. Various parts of the plants are used in herbal teas such as: - Fruits: rosehips, berries, citrus peels - Flowers: chamomile, lavender, hibiscus - Leaves: peppermint, lemon balm, stevia - Roots: ginger, turmeric, dandelion - Barks: cinnamon, willow bark - Seeds: fennel, coriander Herbal teas are often consumed for their, medicinal properties such as calming the nervous system and as an anti-inflammatory. They are also consumed for their flavour and as an alternate to caffeine. As a general rule, typically 1 teaspoon of the dried herb or 3 teaspoons of the freshly crushed herb to one cup of boiling water. Pour the cup of boiling water over the herb and let set (steep) for 5 to 10 minutes covered. To make the tea stronger, use more of the herb rather than steeping for a longer time as this may make the tea bitter. Milk or cream added to the tea will cover up the natural flavour of the herb. Teas consumed in glass mugs are best for retaining the flavour profile. Herbal teas can be consumed as often as desired, however usually up to four cups a day , depending on the results your looking to achieve is more than reasonable. Each person is different and therefore there is no one size fits all. You will know if you have consumed a little too much tea if th e bowels are loose. Typically, the bowels should move one or two times a day if three meals are eaten. What is your favourite herbal tea?

- Healthy Deodorant Recipe
Often times we look for ways to prevent sweating and more importantly bad body odour! The truth is, our body NEEDS to sweat in order to properly eliminate toxins and promote a healthy lymphatic system. There are many natural deodorants on the market that I have tried but none of them helped to prevent the bad odour without multiple applications throughout the day. This recipe does the trick and I can sweat without the stink! HEALTHY DEODORANT RECIPE 1 tsp arnica tincture 1 tsp calendula tincture 250 ml zinc oxide cream DIRECTIONS: Mix about 1 TBSP of the zinc oxide cream with the tinctures. Wash underarms thoroughly and dry. Apply a thin layer of ointment mixture to underarms and leave overnight. Wash off in the morning. The application of this ointment will remove bacteria for about 1-2 weeks however you will still sweat (which is a good thing!) Repeat as needed. What natural deodorants have you tried?

- Elderflower Tincture
The elderberry plant grows all over North America. Elderflower is the first to appear on the plant early summer, and shortly thereafter the elderberry itself begins to develop. It is easy to spot, growing in large umbels of star-shaped flower clusters, which can reach a lofty 4 to 12 inches in diameter! Each individual flower within the cluster possesses 5 petals along with 5 pale yellow thin filaments which grow from the center of the flower. The elderflower has so many immune boosting benefits just as much as the elderberries themselves. They are a diuretic, laxative, antiviral, antiseptic, as well as hosts a plethora of anti-inflammatories and contains high amounts of vitamin C. It is used to relieve swollen sinuses (sinusitis), colds, influenza (flu), swine flu, bronchitis, diabetes, and helps to move along toxic waste which can cause constipation. Elderflowers are also used to intensely hydrate the hair. This makes them the perfect ingredient to detangle hair and restore them to a state of being smoother and silkier. All in all, elderflowers are a wonderful flower to manage tresses and keep them strong, moisturized, well nourished, and easily managed. Our wildcrafted elderflower tincture can be taken internally as a preventative or on the onset of illness. It is recommended to take the tincture three times per day during illness to aid in a quicker recovery. #naturallifeholistics #elderflowertincture #organicelderflower #organictinctures #herbalgoodlife #herbalmedicine #Stouffville
