Winter is not the time to be unprepared.

My Elderberry Syrup is officially back in stock!

This is not a watered-down, sugary cordial.

This is a carefully crafted, 100% organic winter wellness staple made with just four ingredients:

• Certified organic Sambucus nigra berries
• Certified organic unrefined sugar
• Diamond Crystal kosher salt (one of the few salts available that is third-party tested and shown to be free from heavy metals)
• Purified water

That’s it. Nothing artificial. Nothing unnecessary.

Why Elderberry?

Elderberry has a long history of traditional use for winter ills and chills, particularly during times when the immune system needs extra support.
Modern research has explored elderberry’s antiviral activity, with studies suggesting it may help inhibit viral replication and support the body’s natural immune response during upper respiratory challenges. Elderberry is the first thing I reach for when I have a sinus infection.

Traditionally, elderberry has been used:
• At the first sign of winter sniffles
• During seasonal viral exposure
• To support recovery and resilience
• As a daily tonic through colder months.

Safe for the whole family 👨‍👩‍👦
Suitable for ages 6 months and up.
A simple, supportive way to nourish little bodies and grown ones alike.

If you know winter hits your household hard…
Now is the time to start stocking up on your cold season essentials.
Because prevention is easier than playing catch-up.

Available now - freshly made and ready for your home remedies kit.

✨ A little behind-the-scenes story… and a small favour ✨

Some of you who’ve been with me since Amor Mederi started, know that ever since I started 7 months ago, I have tried to set up a business profile with Google and kept getting rejected over and over again.

No real explanation.

No real human to talk to.

Just emails and AI chats that went absolutely nowhere.

Honestly, it was so frustrating that I eventually just gave up and accepted that Amor Medēri would exist without a Google presence.

But… on Saturday night I decided to try one more time.
And after all these attempts ..... it was finally accepted! 🥹

So now Amor Mederi officially has a Google Business profile…

with zero reviews.

And this is where I'm asking for your help 🩷

If you’ve ever:
🌸 tried my products
🌸 received an order from me
🌸 experienced my customer service (customer service is one of my number one priorities, I literally drop everything to get your order out as soon as i get it! I kid you not 😅
🌸 or even just felt supported by me....

Would you consider leaving me a Google review?
It doesn’t have to be long or fancy - even a few words mean the world.

My business has grown purely through word of mouth and community, and this is just another way of letting that magic ripple out a little further.

So if you’ve felt that care, I’d be deeply grateful if you reflected it in a review.

Thank you for being part of this journey. Truly.
This little business exists because of you.

Thank you so much guys!

🍃 Elderberry - The Grandmother of Immunity 🍃

Elderberry (Sambucus nigra) has been used for thousands of years as one of humanity’s most trusted winter allies. Across European, Indigenous and traditional folk systems, elder was considered a sacred protector plant - both physically and spiritually.

Traditionally used to:
🌱 Support the body through seasonal illness
🌱 Encourage healthy immune response
🌱 Promote gentle sweating during fever
🌱 Soothe respiratory tissues
🌱 Support recovery after colds and flu

What modern research shows:

Elderberries are rich in anthocyanins and flavonoids - compounds shown to support immune activity and reduce the duration and severity of viral infections. Clinical studies have found elderberry extracts may help inhibit viral replication and support faster recovery from upper respiratory infections. I have seen chronic sinus infections resolve fast with the support of Elderberry.

Energetically & spiritually:

Elder is known as a threshold plant - a guardian between worlds. In European folklore, the Elder Mother was said to live within the tree, offering protection, wisdom, and deep ancestral healing. Elder works on boundaries: helping the body defend itself while also teaching emotional resilience and protection.

Planetary ruler: Venus & Saturn

Venus brings nurturing, restoration and softness.
Saturn brings boundaries, structure and protection.
Together, they make elder a profound remedy for strengthening without hardening.

This is why elder doesn’t just “boost immunity” - she teaches the body how to defend wisely, recover gently, and restore deeply.

A true plant elder. A keeper of lineage. A medicine for modern times.

Now back in stock at amormederi.com - Elderberry is a must have for any home medicine kit.

Menopause isn’t something to “get through”.

It’s something to be initiated by.

A shedding.

A reorientation.

A deep internal recalibration.

In my latest blog, I explore menopause not as a problem to fix, but as a profound spiritual and physiological rite of passage - where the body, nervous system and identity are being reorganised at every level.

It’s about what this transition means, not just what it feels like.

Why so many women feel lost in it.

And how herbal medicine can walk beside the process without trying to override it.

If you want to understand the deeper energy behind this season of life - and the philosophy as well as herbal allies that shape my Menopause Balance Duo - this piece is for you.

Menopause isn't something to fight.

It's a rite of passage.

It's not just hot flushes and missed periods.

It’s a full-body, full-identity shift that can leave you feeling unfamiliar in your own skin - emotionally, physically and energetically.

Menopause Balance was created as a Tonic and Herbal Blend duo to support women through this powerful transition with nourishment, regulation and deep respect for the body’s natural rhythms.

This is not about fixing you.

It’s about supporting you while your body rewrites itself into a powerful new you!

This is my little dog Coco, whom I absolutely adore.

A couple of months ago Coco developed a large cyst in one of her mammary glands (I googled that, and apparently that is what they are officially called in dogs).

At first I left it to see if it would resolve naturally, and unfortunately it didn't, it just grew quite large. So I started her on dandelion root tincture.

I already knew how effective dandelion was at resolving cysts anywhere in the body because I had used it myself 11 years ago when I was sent off to the breast cancer clinic - where I had to have a giant fight with them to get an ultrasound instead of a mammagram (but that is a story for another day) - after winning that fight, it turned out I had a cyst. I was told I would have to get it surgically removed, and me being me, I refused and went home and started on dandelion root.

Back then I drunk the tea - 3 cups daily. But I knew Coco wouldn't be having a bar of that, so I gave her 7 drops of dandelion tincture 3 x daily.

It only took 3 weeks and her cyst is completely gone.

This is what I love about herbal medicines. They do so much.

You may take Dandelion for one thing - and at the same time, she is doing so many other amazing things! I'm sure we don't know half of what she can do. But what I do know is that I'm sure Coco is happy to not have to have surgery and I'm sure my wallet is happy about that too!

Low Immunity isn’t a failure.
It's a sign of depletion.

Most people think their immune system is “weak” because they catch things easily.

But in practice, what I see over and over again is something deeper:
A body that has been stressed, stretched, and over-relied on for too long.

When your nervous system is constantly switched on: emotionally, mentally & physically - your immune system loses its rhythm. It stops regulating properly. It becomes either sluggish or overreactive. And you start living in that state where you’re always bracing for the next thing.

This tonic was created for that kind of body.
Not for acute illness.
Not for “quick fixes.”

But for rebuilding immune intelligence - that way your body recognises, responds, and returns to balance.

🌿Astragalus is deep immune nourishment.
🌿Licorice supports the deep adaptive and adrenal layers.
🌿Tulsi steadies the stress-immune axis.
🌿Echinacea supports immune communication.
🌿Elderberry protects the terrain.

Together, they don’t force anything.
They teach your system how to function again.
This is for the people who feel:
• worn thin
• easily overwhelmed
• slower to recover
• less resilient than they used to be

Your body isn’t broken.
It’s tired.
And tired systems don’t need to be pushed.
They need to be held, nourished, and retrained.

Passionflower is for the overwhelmed.
For the ones who are tired but wired.
For the ones whose minds won’t switch off.
For the nervous systems that have been bracing for too long.
She is for those who feel anxious in their bodies,
even when nothing is “wrong.”
For the sensitive, the empaths, the ones who feel everything deeply.
Passionflower doesn’t numb you - she helps your system remember calm.
She gently unhooks the mind from its loops and invites the body back into safety.
If your breath feels shallow, your thoughts feel loud,
or your heart feels tender and overstimulated - then she may be for you.
This is her medicine.
Let her hold you.

I absolutely love the blackbirds in my garden. I have so many that live here. At times, too many!

Not just because they’re incredibly beautiful, but because once you open yourself to their energy, you realise just how special they are.

Blackbirds are guardians of the in-between. They live on the threshold. They walk the soil and sing from the sky. They are most active at dawn and at dusk.

And sometimes, in the quiet, luminous hours - they sing into the night. Just like the Bettles song says.

That part always gets me.

It's so symbolic.

Blackbirds are one of the very few garden birds who do this.

When the world is still, when the air carries sound further, they lift their voices into the dark night. Reminding us of another truth. That even in the darkest places, beauty or light is still present too. Running right alongside the darkness. We just need to have the courage to look for it. To sing it into being. Blackbirds whisper to us that darkness is not emptiness… it is fertility, rest, gestation, and becoming.

Which is why blackbirds, cloaked in the colours of soil, night, and seed - have always been seen not as omens of death, but as guardians of transformation.

They sing from the dark, because the dark is where the next thing is forming.

Singing when others are silent.

Holding space when everything else is quiet.

That’s very blackbird.

If you've ever watched a Blackbird feeding, you’ll see something extraordinary. They tilt their heads, one ear to the ground, one eye on the world, and then suddenly, stab their beak into the ground and pull up a worm from the earth. They first time I watched them do it, my spirit whispered that they hear what can't be heard.

They aren’t guessing.

They’re listening.

They hear the subtle movements beneath the soil, the quiet shifting of life underground.

The earth speaks to them, and they answer.

And that feels like their deeper gift too - a reminder that what we need is often hidden below the surface, and that true knowing comes from stillness and listening.

I couldn't help but notice that even in this torrential rain we have just had, they still came to bathe in my bird bath. I've carefully set it up so I can watch them from many rooms in my house. I love watching then bathe. They make it look so joyous.

So I'm learning that they bathe not because they want to get wet, but because sometimes rain is chaos, and bathing for them is restoration. In the still water they realign their feathers, redistribute their oils, and bring themselves back into balance.

And I think that’s what they offer us too.

Blackbirds don’t belong to endings the way crows do.

They belong to crossings - the place between who we were and who we’re becoming. They appear when something is shifting, softening, healing, or being born. Their spirit brings balance to times of transition.

So when a blackbird sings near you, especially in the hush of evening or the mystery of night, or lives in your garden, or looks at you with those dark, ancient eyes - know that you’re standing in a thin place, where nature and spirit quietly meet.

Because blackbirds don’t just live anywhere. Blackbirds choose places where: water is clean, land is respected, no one is hunted or chased and there is space for their rituals.

They do not settle in chaotic, hostile energy.

If blackbirds live with you, your garden may have become a thin place - a place where life and spirit quietly overlap.

And blackbirds? They are the ones who keep watch.

And that, to me, is a kind of magic we don’t talk about nearly enough.

Love Kim x

Amor Mederi is for those who want more than convenience.
For those who care how their remedies are made, not just what they claim to do.

slowly prepared, intentionally combined,
and handled with reverence at every stage.
No outsourced extracts made by faceless corporations.

What guides the process:
• Whole-plant integrity
• Organic & ethically sourced herbs
• Traditional herbal wisdom, practiced with precision
• Care for the body as something intelligent and worthy of respect

This is herbal medicine for people who listen to their bodies.
For those who believe healing should feel supportive, not forceful.

All remedies are prepared with love.
Always with intention.
Always with care.

Sacred Basil - Tulsi has long been regarded as a protector of the heart and spirit.
It’s used when someone feels worn down, exposed, or spiritually thin. She says " It's ok to let go, I will hold you up."

Tulsi is for those times when you feel life has been asking for more than you have to give.

If you feel burnt out, your immune system feels a bit threadbare, or your nervous system never quite gets to stand down, Tulsi can give support, by helping your body adapt to the ongoing pace of life, gently strengthening your immune resilience, clearing the lungs, and calming inflammatory patterns - all without pushing or overstimulating.

This is an herb for softening without collapsing.
For steady support.
For being held while you regain your footing.
