As many of you are also doing, I'm seeking out resources on medicinal herbals. I thought it might be good to have a thread of reputable references as we learn. I have some books, but also looking for online resources and/or online classes.
I'm in Colorado, so many of the books I've bought are about medicinal herbs for my area and elevation. This includes foraging... Because if it can grow wild, probably I can get it to grow on my property (?). I can share what these are, but since I haven't worked through them yet I can't vouche for how good they are (or are not).
There are also great books and videos for general "how to" that could be great starting points for those of use just learning.
Mods, feel free to remove if not enough on Q topic.
Are you recommending DoTerra for oil use specifically... or are you telling me it is still an effective resource for the herb, being just the oil derived from it?
I found an apothecary near me the other day and I’m hoping to cultivate that relationship.
I’m hoping to capture broad information here for more than just me. I know I’m not alone in exploring these things for the first time!! It is so fascinating!!!
I never thought about Mercola- I’ll need to check that out!!!
I like and use DoTerra essential oils for various things re: health and healing. They have a how-to book…which oil used for what need. Pretty sure there are several good books around on how to use EO’s of your choice.
No, I haven’t bought one yet, but I need to get one.
I have a number of EO books, but sort of stopped giving on it as much when supply chain became an issue. Sure to those sorts of concerns, I'm thinking about what I can grow. I have a black thumb....so practicing now :)
Ah, got it.
