Yesterday I went foraging at Ta’ Ċenċ, amidst the wind and the wild, untamed nature. 🌿🍃

The wind is not an obstacle.
It is part of the rhythm.

Nature sets its own timing:
the moment of flowering,
the balsamic period,
the precise point when the plant expresses its greatest strength.

And that moment is now.

When the time comes, we go.
We walk.
We observe.
We recognise.
We gather with respect.

Back home, the plants are processed or left to dry slowly, in a dry, protected place.
Or transformed into a mother tincture, to preserve their energy. ✨

Simple, ancient gestures.
Rituals that restore balance to mind and spirit.
All locally sourced – zero km. 🌱

In these first days of bloom, I encountered Calendula fulgida, Suffejra in Maltese — a bright, sunny plant with a long tradition in Mediterranean herbal medicine.

Its Maltese name comes from jaundice (suffejra), linking the color of the skin to the bright yellow flower, following the old doctrine of signatures. Beyond this, calendula has been historically used to support women’s health, helping balance the menstrual cycle, soothe tension, and gently restore harmony.

In my mini online workshop on February 17, we’ll explore calendula and other plants traditionally used to accompany the menstrual cycle, with simple preparations inspired by Mediterranean practice. 🌼

🌿 Winter Cough? Nature Has an Answer 🌿

The synergy of four traditional Mediterranean plants creates a gentle and effective infusion for body and emotions.

🍵 Elecampane, Borage, Plantain, and Red Poppy work together to loosen mucus, soothe coughs, and support your lungs during the cold, damp winter months.

💧 Look around — the plants are here, local and seasonal. Reconnect with their knowledge and bring their healing power into your daily life.
