❀️‍πŸ”₯ 2025 RECAP ❀️‍πŸ”₯

This year has been a roller-coaster! 🎒 Lots of ups and downs, but I’ve learned new skills and met lots of amazing people!

I'm very grateful for every opportunity this year has brought. πŸ™ Often I'll go to a market and meet someone, which then sparks a collaboration elsewhere.

This year has taught me that growth isn't linear, it's a messy uncontrollable zig zag. πŸ“Š You try lots of things and they're unsuccessful... Then you try something else and it works (often to my surprise). πŸ€”πŸ˜²

The key is to show up every day for myself and for my patients. πŸ’• Consistency, determination, and faith are what keep me going.

I hope this acts as a gentle reminder to whoever reads this. "Success," whether that's career or health-related, doesn't happen in a vacuum. It's lots of small consistent steps. Also, one's definition of success can change over time... But that is another story. πŸ˜‚

Thank you ALL for supporting my business, and for supporting a holistic way of healing through natural herbal remedies. 🌿

I'm looking forward to seeing what 2026 brings. Hold on to your hats! 🎩

Happy New Year when it comes... πŸŽ‰

🌼 Meet Dandelion (Taraxacum officinale) 🌼

🦁 Belonging to the Asteraceae (daisy) family, this vibrant and resilient plant is often considered by most gardeners as a β€œweed”. I invite you to think again. It's common name derives from the French β€œdent de lion” meaning β€œlion’s tooth”, which refers to the deeply lobed, green leaves.

🍡 In Western Herbal Medicine, we typically utilise the leaf and root in the form of tea, tincture, powder, or juice to support health complaints such as arthritis, gout, hypertension and liver disorders.

🀀 Dandelion aids digestion by stimulating bile and gastric acid production, which enhances the breakdown of fats and other foods. Dandelion also contains prebiotic fibre (e.g. inulin) that feeds beneficial gut microbes. Safety note: seek guidance from a trained herbalist if you wish to work with dandelion for gallstones as consumption can aggravate symptoms if the bile duct is blocked.

πŸ₯— As a wild food, consider adding a few of the young spring leaves to a salad. Once the flowers are in bloom, you could also batter and fry up some delicious dandelion pakora. Throughout history, the roasted root has been used as a coffee substitute during times of scarcity, including World War II.

✨ After revealing the herb, Yasmin will share its history and uses in Western Herbal Medicineβ€”helping us build deeper, more personal relationships with plants and ourselves.

β€’ Slow herbal meditation
