Thanks so much to Hackney Herbal who came to our support group last Thursday and did a lovely workshop all about herbal remedies. We were able to smell and taste a variety of herbs and then we made some teabags of our favourite ones. For example:
Lemon balm: Relaxing restorative for nervous system. Uplifting tea. Calming and soothing
Fennel: Leaves, seeds. Digestive aid for wind and indigestion
Lemon Verbena Leaves. Sedative, carminative, Night tea for insomnia
German Chamomile Anti-inflammatory Used to calm digestive and nervous system
Sage Leaves, essential oil traditionally associated with longevity. Reduces sweating,
salivation and lactating, improves menopausal symptoms,
Used for sore throats and tonsillitis
