Simple, nourishing, and made with love 🤍

This black sesame paste is made with toasted organic black sesame seeds and local honey. I grind the seeds first, then blend them again with honey until smooth and creamy.

My 3 year old was so excited to make this with me and happily ate it by the spoonful when we were done creating. That’s her cute little voice you hear. Truly the best taste tester. Plus having the kids in the kitchen creating with you makes them so much more likely to be open to different foods!

In Chinese medicine, black sesame seeds nourish the Liver and Kidney, support Jing, and are traditionally used to strengthen the body and moisten dryness, especially for healthy hair, skin, and bones.

Rich in healthy fats, calcium, iron, magnesium, zinc, B vitamins, and antioxidants. Paired with honey for gentle immune support and blended into a delicious paste, it’s such a simple and powerful food.

A spoonful a day is a sweet way to nourish from the inside out.

In Chinese Medicine, Wei Qi is your body’s protective shield. It helps defend against wind, pathogens, and seasonal allergens.

Jade Windscreen (Yu Ping Feng San) is a classic formula that strengthens this protection, creating a gentle force field so outside triggers are less likely to get in.

This is the perfect time to start as we move toward spring. Supporting your Wei Qi now can make a big difference for seasonal allergies and sensitivity to environmental changes.

One of the key herbs is astragalus (Huang Qi), a favorite of mine for building strong, steady immunity. In TCM it is used preventatively, not during an active illness. As my teacher would say, taking it once a pathogen has invaded can “trap the robber in the house.”

Chinese New Year begins February 17, welcoming the energy of the Fire Horse. We also have a solar eclipe and New Moon tomorrow. I can feel the intense energy. ✨

In Chinese medicine, this is a year of strong movement, bold heart energy, and forward momentum. A time to trust your inner fire, release what no longer fits, and move toward what feels true.

May this year bring courage, clarity, and the freedom to grow. ✨
