We've brought back our Ye Olde Mulling Spice Kits just in time for Autumn!

For centuries our ancestors used this cozy aromatic spice blend to bring warmth and comfort into the home, invite blessings and clarity, and ward off negativity.

Today we still utilize them that way in simmer pots but also to mull apple cider, wine, or beer (just like they did in medieval times!)

Interestingly enough they also have a number of therapeutic benefits:

🍁Supports digestion:
Cinnamon, cloves, and allspice help stimulate digestive enzymes, easing bloating or indigestion after a heavy meal.
🍁Immune support:
Clove and cinnamon have natural antimicrobial and antiviral properties, helping your body fight off colds and flu.
🍁Anti-inflammatory effects:
Ingredients like cinnamon and star anise contain compounds that reduce inflammation in the body.
🍁Improves circulation & warms the body:
Mulling spices are naturally warming — perfect for improving blood flow and relieving cold hands and feet in winter.

🍁Emotional & Aromatherapy Benefits
Calming & comforting aroma:
The scent of mulling spices evokes feelings of safety, nostalgia, and coziness — reducing stress and promoting relaxation.
Mood-lifting energy:
Citrus peel and cinnamon stimulate the senses, creating a welcoming, uplifting atmosphere.
Grounding energy:
Cinnamon and clove are associated with protection, abundance, and love, making simmer pots with mulling spices a favorite for grounding or clearing negativity.

So slice some apples, make a simmer pot or some mulled apple cider and offer gratitude for all the blessings in your life!

One thing I am increasingly interested in learning about is frequency healing and sound therapy. Everything vibrates at a different frequency, including our own bodies, corresponding to its own metaphysical properties. When frequencies are disrupted due to stress, trauma, or illness it can lead to various health concerns.
Frequency healing aims to restore the natural balance of the body by introducing coherent vibrations to help return to the natural resonance.

Different resonances do different things.
The Schumann resonance (7.83 Hz), the resonance of the earth, grounds and calms.

My Mom loved smoky quartz and we both just loved ROCKS. She used to joke that I would miss something big happening near me because I was always looking down, hunting for the best rock!

She also loved Smoky Quartz, which unlike other stones with higher frequencies vibrates near the Schumann resonance. So when I saw this beauty, I was instantly drawn to it and decided it needed a permanent place on my desk at work, not only to help sync my energy into a steady, grounded rhythm, but to feel close to her as well.

While I'm still learning (obviously didn't teach this stuff in pharmacy school 😅), I am so excited about what can be done using frequencies! I also love to support my Pharmhouse community in new and growing areas!

Frequency therapy can be done in many different ways including using stones, tuning forks, sound bowls, and even apps with timed sessions to support meditation, emotional balance, and pain relief.

So whether you like to use stones for healing or spiritual practice or just like to look at them because they're pretty, I hope they bring some positivity and balance into your life!

We have a handful of extra Tincture Club Boxes left over for the October surprise box.

I will put them on the website tomorrow morning under "extra Tincture Club Boxes".

Please know that purchasing an extra does not sign you up for the quarterly subscription to get them, you are just purchasing that one individual box.

Once they are gone, we'll open the subscription back up for a limited number of new participants for the next January box.

Thank y'all for loving this quarters box! We've heard from so many of you that you loved it and that makes us so happy!

Update on August:

First and foremost, I know that August's family is eternally grateful for all the kind love and support from you all. Their world has been rocked in a way they never wanted, never asked for, and it won't look the same going forward.

Healthwise, August is growing stronger and healing more every day. This was to be expected from a 15 year old athlete in perfect health prior to this event on August 19th. Due to the nature of his injuries, he still does have to be careful with his activities and suffers from some physical ailments that are concurrent with the extent of his injuries. If you weren't already aware, August will never be able to play a contact sport again due to the risk of brain injury. But this kid has the biggest smile, the funniest personality, and a sound, wise mind for his age. We are grateful to get to be his friends.

Last week the Madison County DA wrapped up their investigation of the incident that left August with bilateral orbital fractures, cardiac arrest, and other serious injuries. Unfortunately, August's memory has not returned so we had to rely on the investigators to thoroughly and comprehensively investigate what we have never felt was an accident. It was ruled that it was a tragic accident due to friendly banter between two "buddies." To our disappointment, it seems that this investigation was not quite as thorough as we hoped it would be as there are too many inconsistencies and unanswered questions still lingering for this family to feel peace in their healing. Sadly, many in our small community have resorted to manipulation, defamation, gaslighting, and victim shaming in order to embrace comforting falsehoods than confront an uncomfortable truth. It seems collective convenience has outweighed collective conscience.

It has affected my own family significantly seeing our friends hurting through this process. My older sons chose to walk away from the team that they loved and our family underwent vicious personal attacks (which were to be expected when you ruffle the feathers of a system no one has dared to touch for decades) None of that though could take away from our pursuit of accountability and transparency in this situation. We will miss getting to see them on the field, especially our oldest who is a senior, but they are solid in their decision.

And here we are. We will continue to support this family, our friends, until they are satisfied that every stone has been overturned and until true healing can occur in their hearts. Rest assured they are still fighting. We are still standing strong with them.

Thank you for helping us love them. Pray for our community that we can come together for constructive change that helps us protect all children and move forward.

Again I'm hear saying sorry for not being super present on facebook these past few weeks. It's been a whirlwind. October always is but now that my boys are no longer on the football team I hope that we can spend some more time together as a family and get caught up on work stuff!

(Because so many of you have been following this case, if you'd like a quick update on our sweet friend August Borden and his case, comment below)

In the meantime, here's a reminder that our original formula of Pain in the Butt Cream (as well as any CBD oil we have left in stock) will only be available to you until December 31st due to the new CBD laws.

This cream has been a lifesaver for so many so I wanted to quickly let you know we are hustling to produce as much as we can right now and will release a new formulation for you to try after the first of the year, as our goal is always to give you good, clean, effective options for those pesky aches and pains.

We are also working hard to keep producing our viral care kits and elderberry hot cocoa as we know those are fall weather faves to have on hand! Thank you for being kind, patient, and understanding of this crazy season! Be well.

It's Tuesday, let's learn something!

Mullein is one of the herbs I always go back to when creating new holistic remedies. It's fuzzy leafed goodness has comforted breathing issues and soothed inflamed tissues across cultures for generations.

Historically, Native Americans use Mullein leaf smoke for treating asthma and respiratory diseases, believing it's smoke carried healing properties directly to the lungs. In medieval Europe, it was known as the "Candlewick Plant" and was used to treat tuberculosis and pulmonary diseases.

We use Mullein in as many ways as we can at Pharmhouse Apothecary:
1. In our Cold Care Herbal Tea to help remove chest and sinus congestion, protect lung tissues from inflammation, and boost the immune system.
2. Our Mullein tincture is a more concentrated form of healing properties used to help clear out mucus, reduce inflammation, aid with bronchitis, asthma, COPD, emphysema, smoker's cough. Tinctures use alcohol to pull out the best medicinal properties and improve their absorption into your bloodstream through the gums.
3. Mullein is slowly infused into our base for our Herbal Chest Rub and applied topically for sinus and respiratory issues and to help open up the breathing pathways.
4. Our favorite Earache Oil uses a Mullein infused oil to help clear up ear infections and pain/inflammation with its anti-bacterial properties, especially when combines with garlic.

Herbal synergies with Mullein:
1. Garlic- antibacterial, antimicrobial
2. Marshmallow Root- demulcent properties, coats and protects irritated respiratory tissue
3. Elderberry- immune fortifying, as well as, antiviral properties

Precautions: some people (like myself) may experience some really mild irritation when applying mullein to the skin, but it is usually short lived.
Never use Mullein seeds. They are toxic. Only the leaves!

Overall, we can use this wonderful plant in some really useful ways, especially during cold and flu season! If you are a smoker or a prior smoker, mullein is a must for your daily herbal routine to help clean and clear the lungs and open up the airways.
