I really enjoy these herbs. Especially sage. I have ground it fine and used it in wounds. I have noticed the foods you add it to stay fresher longer. One of my favorites! I do need to use more garlic. Love your videos. It is like sharing a cup of coffee and talking with an old friend.

I hope you don't mind my writing a response to your response! I was just thinking though, in your reply which mentions how helpful nervine herbs are at stressful times, and thinking of something an herbalist once said. She said how things that want to grow around you are often things (as in plants) that you need. I keep thinking of all the lemon balm, which is a 'weed' here. And that it is a gentle nervine as well! So you have reminded me, that besides the herbs on the list from the recent vid. I should start drinking more fresh lemon balm tea.

Of course not. I love a response to a response. I was actually thinking of Lemon Balm when I was writing. She has been calling to me too xx

The opening of that flic, the light squeezing under clouds, reflecting on the shining ocean, boat bobbing up and down, then the pan to your two precious dogs playing....Heart opening. I love your information on the medicinal plants. Most all in kitchen and or garden, and oft used in our home. Loved watching your fingers stroking wee kitten while you spoke; already he or she such a part of the household, and good dogs around baby too. I think I especially enjoyed the film this time, the homespun comfort of old fashioned herbal remedies and passing on the word about their healing powers, as well as the light over the ocean, the pets and garden and you....because I live in the States, and our election and future prospects seem so unknown and scary. thank you for the ground rooting and light! My they keep and restore sanity to the world!

3 Times I moved to Oregon and once just two blocks from the shore. I sold that house and the other two times there just was no way I could afford to buy again. We had a breakdown in the housing market in the US at that time and my retirement savings was stolen by the banks which broke all plans and dreams. We just tried again to buy in Oregon and lost 10,000 in the process. If I loose my dogs before I die I will take a suitcase and just rent hut on the beach. Never give up. I live in a beautiful place but it is dry except for the huge river that comes off the Indian Reservation.

Sorry to hear that the house sale fell through - how annoying and to lose money as well!! Sorry to hear that too. Pension funds were raided here and in UK too! xx

We cannot use our bank card without preapproval of the bank for buying food. No question for gas, insurance, utilities just food and out of country purchase. Notice all the changes of my subscription to your podcast. Getting us ready for awful stuff. Made me really angry this morning on the hold up of an order for organic food.
