Knowing how to take care of yourself in certain si

Knowing how to take care of yourself in certain situations is such a reassuring feeling. Just a few nuggets can go a long way to feeling and being more self-responsible.❤

Cold weather calls for roasted carbs like beetroot

Cold weather calls for roasted carbs like beetroot, yam, carrots etc. doesn't it. But why are we drawn to these when the temperature drops? This is because they literally help us fight the cold. Root vegetables require a lot of energy during the process of digestion and this, in turn, produces more heat in the body, helping to warm and sustain us.
Low cost and incredibly nourishing they are all rich in many valuable vitamins and minerals. For instance, beetroot has good levels of magnesium and calcium but also so much else.
It is loaded with betaine which helps environmental stress and helps alleviate inflammation. Furthermore, on this point it is rich in purple anthocyanins, further helping inflammation issues.
Then the list of benefits continues, it's important for heart health in general, blood pressure, for the brain and the liver. And perhaps surprisingly it's helpful for weight regulation and it has few calories.

Enjoy your beetroot this Winter!
Did you know we put beetroot with other heart supportive herbs like ginkgo leaf, olive leaf and hawthorn in our Winter PumpBeet Capsules? Message us your name and address for a free sample.

I'd never come across this quote before. As a herbalist/naturopath my work is based equally on ancient medicine traditions as modern clinical practice and recent studies. A gem of a quote from Hippocrates, the ancient Greek physician who was born 5th century BCE.

A Peaceful Evening Is An Important Goal After the

A Peaceful Evening Is An Important Goal
After the rough and tumble of a long and complex day, with a bit of stress thrown in! It's important to have a calm and peaceful evening where one can ground, calm the brain and reboot the nervous system before going to bed.
Any number of things can help achieve this from a long hot bath onwards. A time old help is a herbal tea specially designed to help you chill out. The French are famous for these calming herb tea rituals, which work so well.

Our version is our Evening Peace Herb Tea and or our Lavender Flower Tea.
The Evening Peace Herb Tea combines nervous system calming herbs and post-meal digestives. After supper is is critical to digest your food in a quick and thorough manner, so it can then shut down and let you rest before bed. This tea delivers both criteria. In fact, this is the combined reasoning of most traditional calming evening teas. The Lavender Flower Tea also comes as a single tea into this category. It's digestively fragrant, incredibly calming, anxiety-reducing and helps shut down daytime cortisol.

Our FREE Black Friday Soothe Pack
We have ONLY 30 packs to give away, just FB message us your name and address and we will send it out to you free of charge!
It contains samples of Evening Peace Herb Tea, Lavender Flower Tea and our customer favourite Chamomile & Vervain Formula (fourteen herbs blend) for replenishing and calming the nervous system.

Winter Superfoods to keep you well. Perhaps more

Ann Wigmore (1904 to 1994) was an American Pioneer

Ann Wigmore (1904 to 1994) was an American Pioneer of Naturopathic health practices. She was an early advocate of cleansing and detoxing, vegetable juices, smoothies, a dislike of food additives and of the nutritional value of wheatgrass and other sprouted seeds. Her legacy is all around us, perhaps stronger than ever.

Keep your Bowel Moving! Moving your bowel each mor

Keep your Bowel Moving!
Moving your bowel each morning without fuss or strain is surely a blessing to count. For those who struggle, help in the form of herbs that don't engender dependency is good to know about. In India, there is an ancient blend of three fruits called Triphala used as a bowel tonic for ensuring regular bowel movements. In fact, it is basically a rejuvenating tonic that helps the colon, gut and much more. This blend (Triphala) has been put with yellow dock root, aloe vera leaves, barberry root, fennel and ginger to create a reliable, non-habit forming natural laxative blend. The yellow dock root is a long recognised constipation herb that also helps the liver and digestive function. The barberry root works in a similar way but has the added benefit of being an anti-microbial and general tonic. All in all, it is a soothing blend due to the Aloe vera.

It appears we have between 30 to 40 million people

It appears we have between 30 to 40 million people actively gardening in Britain today which is very cheering. So good for so many reasons, not least that getting our hands dirty in soil (non chemically sprayed) can positively influence our own immune systems for the better.

Help with energy can be a bit more important in wi

Help with energy can be a bit more important in winter as cold saps our resources. In herbal terms, there is a category of herbs called adaptogens that can help balance reactions to cold and one in particular, is called Siberian Ginseng.

Whatever scale of lowered energy you feel this herb can really make a difference.

The blend at Herbs Hands Healing called EnergieRevive Powder can help act as a metabolic regulator which helps enable us to better adapt to stress and actively start redressing the low energy, low mood feelings. Siberian Ginseng (Eleutherococcus senticosus, botanically not true ginseng) is the main adaptogenic plant in this formula and can be easily added to smoothies and get to work - so you don’t have to do much to get amazing results!

Over time a feeling of being more grounded and having more available energy is the outcome.

National Diabetes Month There is much to know and

National Diabetes Month

There is much to know and read about diabetes 1 and 2 in this special awareness month. Many herbs can help both types and in particular burdock root (Arctium lappa) where studies have proved it to be successful for both situations.

Burdock root is specialized in normalizing blood sugar levels. It is adept at sugar level balancing and equally at removing toxin overloads caused by backed-up waste products.

Burdock root is rarely used on its own and often put with its plant partner dandelion. Dandelion is also a good blood sugar supporter for different reasons. Like burdock, it helps digestion as well as is a gut enhancer (pre-biotic). Most importantly for this post, it is brilliant as supporting and stabilizing blood sugar levels.

The liver really does need to function well over W

The liver really does need to function well over Winter as it will have extra immune demands placed on it with the increase in infections like colds, coughs etc. We may not connect the liver and immunity, but the liver defends against blood-borne infections by using detection and capture techniques of pathogens. So give your liver a clear out so it can work at its optimum level and keep you more fortified.
Once the heat of the Summer is over and as the colder more fragile energy of the Winter approaches the body needs to endure more body extremes so fortifying it will really help. It is good to focus on both warming the body and preparing the liver.

Liver Support Herbs & Foods will be useful:
Eat plenty of olives, artichoke hearts, watercress and all other liver foods you're familiar with.

Don’t forget we have Liver Cleanses, just ask for details and samples if you wish. Look at our Milk Thistle & Dandelion Formula; the Milk Thistle Seeds, and the Lemon & Artichoke Concentrate.

Parsley, thyme, sage, rosemary and bay are all Win

Parsley, thyme, sage, rosemary and bay are all Winter hardy herbs that can be picked throughout the colder months and which survive snow and most dire weather. A cheering thought as the colder months set in. (if you are fortunate enough to have a plot of land.) These plants are all incredibly tasty but also strongly antimicrobial and perfect for keeping our immunity stronger in Winter. They can be added to smoothies, soups, roasts and herbal teas. They provide a cheap form of generalized health support and give us our ever-important biochemistry diversity.
