Beautiful and fragrant Elderflower 🥰🥰 you can see it blossoming all around us and the divine honey-like aroma has filled up the air. I picked up a few of these gorgeous white flowers today for freshly brewed tea that can be great for seasonal colds, hay-fever and general immunity. Elderflowers bloom for about day or two only but then new ones appear. If foraging some yourself always know what you're picking (check with a foraging guide), harvest just enough, and say thanks 💕🙏

You can try mixing Elderflower with local honey in a jar & let it sit for a couple of weeks, the flowers are edible and combine great with honey for an added immunity boost😊

Hawthorn or Ireland's fairy tree flowers are in full bloom now 🌸💗 Astoundingly beautiful! The Hawthorn has been one of my personal favourites for a while, it's truly heart's best friend: Hawthorn can regulate blood pressure, whether it's high or low, it can have cardioprotective properties, helpful for high cholesterol, arteriosclerosis & atherosclerosis, stress-related heart palpitations, heart rhythm irregularities, insomnia and so much more, the list goes on and on.

The pinky-white soft flowers on a background of green leaves correlate to the Heart chakra healing colours. It's enough to stop by for a second and tune in the Hawthorn's energy, the beauty will bring a smile on your face and you may instantly feel more light-hearted, more alive 🌸🍃

You can try Hawthorn on its own or in combination with other herbs for more synergy, learn how at petya.herbalist@gmail.com / 0892211246.

Why choose herbs? Because they are part of nature, part of who you truly are, they shift and harmonise what needs to be undone so you can feel at balance once again 🌺🌼🍀
Air, water, earth and fire(flowers) in equilibrium in this photo, may it bring same to your day 🙏💚

Have you noticed any velvety plantain leaves growing around you? They look just like these on the photo below, having that cheerful dandelion head beside them as a friend. Did you know plantain can be a wonderful herb for soothing hay fever symptoms, tickly throat, coughs, allergic rhinitis, allergic asthma, or applied as an external poultice for cuts and bruises? If you need more advice on any of the above mentioned get in touch, herbs are there for you 🌿
