LCP #32: Herbal Highlights - California Poppy, Saffron, St Johns Wort & Mucuna
Description
Another episode of Herbal Highlights with Angela Bewick and host Malcolm Saunders. Every week, the pair meet up to talk about what is going on behind the scenes at the shop.
Today, Angela and Malcolm dive in to quite a few flowers you will find in the shop, and their myriad ways they can help. Think of these herbs as ways to bring the sunshine in!
There's a new Inner Sunshine herbal prep in store - a syrup made up of herbal components including Saffron, St John's Wort, Mucuna and a bit of sea salt. Get to know the herbs behind this special in-store-only syrup!
The first herbal term of the week is sativa. What do you think this latin word means? Malcolm dives in around the 9 minute mark. The second one is from Angela, and it's trophorestorative. Learn the etymology of the word in today's episode!
This week, Angela and Malcolm check in again with a California Poppy preparation they have had brewing in the shop for a bit. Learn all about this nervine tonic and appreciate some of its benefits, especially when it comes to pain relief.
