 A few of the new teas I have been creating to help you along this time.

Feeling tense? What herbs can we use for you.

Nervous Tension - Vivid blue flowers are typical of many of the best nerve herbs and skullcap is one of them. Chop 1/2 cup of the leaves and flowers and add to 2 cups boiling water. Steep 15 minutes and strain. Sweeten with honey and drink several cups a day. Can be used to treat epilepsy, convulsions, and any involuntary trembling of the limbs. Skullcap is also used during drug or alcohol withdrawal to lessen symptoms of withdrawal.  End of Tether is my go to tea for tension. Or Headaches associated with tension? Try this.


Rich in antioxidants.Rooibos tea contains several antioxidants, with the green variety containing higher levels than the red. Some of the most notable antioxidants in the tea are quercetin and aspalathin. Antioxidants are important for human health because they stop free radicals from damaging cells in the body.
 

The benefits of rooibos tea

  • Improves blood pressure and circulation. Inflammation is a key player in the role of heart disease. ...
  • Keeps hair strong and skin healthy. The benefits of rooibos tea go beyond drinking it. ...
  • Aids in weight loss. ...
  • Treats and prevents diabetes. ...
  • May help prevent cancer. ...
  • Boosts bone health.
  •  Keeps you looking younger and more beautiful.


The Benefit of Rosehips Tea

Rosehip tea is an herbal tea made from the pseudo-fruits of the rose plant. It has a delicate, floral flavor that's slightly sweet with a distinct tart aftertaste. ... Rose hips have been linked to numerous benefits, including improved immunity, heart health, weight loss, and skin aging.

Benefits

Medicinal Claims / Health Benefits. Fresh rose hips contain a lot of vitamin C, so they share many uses with vitamin Cincluding preventing and treating colds, flu, and vitamin C deficiencies.


Digestion is vital to feeling good, very few of us can say that we have a fine flow of our internal workings. There are several things we can do to support the process.  One simple step, gentle herb teas contributes to nourishing and healing the gut while cleansing and restoring natural, more regular function.  Today, I want to discuss in brief, Demulcents and add a recipe therewith, to start you on a journey of simple wellness.

Demulcents

Botanicals that are demulcents contain mucopolysaccharides: chains of sugar molecules which are often found in our mucus and in the fluid around our joints. The mucilaginous action of demulcent herbs triggers a reflex within the body—including in the digestive tract—that promotes natural, moistening secretions, which have a soothing, relaxing effect on any irritated mucous membranes they come into contact with. People have used demulcents since ancient times to soothe the mouth, throat, esophagus, and stomach. Because of their cooling nature, demulcent herbs can also be helpful in hot, dry conditions.

Keep in mind that mucopolysaccharides are destroyed by heat, so demulcents should be extracted as an infusion in room temperature or cool water, rather than with heat or in an alcohol tincture form.

Soothing Marshmallow Rose Tea Recipe

 Ingredients

  • 3 parts organic marshmallow root
  • 2 parts organic rose buds
  • 1 part organic sweet cinnamon chips, or 1 organic sweet cinnamon stick, or 1/2 part organic sweet cinnamon powder
  • Distilled, spring, or filtered water
  • Raw, local honey, optional

Directions

  1. Measure out herbs in proportions above to fill a pint-size jar one third of the way—if desired, bundle the herbs in cheesecloth first.
  2. Fill jar with cool water and put on lid.
  3. Refrigerate overnight.
  4. Strain.
  5. Add honey to taste if you’d like a little more sweetness. Drink and enjoy!

My recuperation story.  I was diagnosed with kidney cancer 4 years ago, it was quite unexpected. I thought I had enough to contend with dealing with the weirdly rare conditions I already have. The Hyper IGM syndrome does make me more susceptible to cancers, but with a good diet and as holistic living (plus my own ally - IVIG immune replacement therapy) as I could maintain it seemed to have had staved it off. Anyway, it took three cancelled surgeries to finally get the Tumour and sadly, a friend turned foe, kidney removed. Yes, I certainly tried to keep my little kidney, searching and researching for any hope I could grasp, sadly, it had to leave, the tumour had embedded too deep and there was just no other way.  My experiences (and they are vast) have been teachers in themselves, I put my heart and soul into all I do because of my own trials and afflictions, I believe this is what makes a true healer, the deep and compassionate desire to help others foraged through adversities and sufferings. Every experience, no matter how painful, I go through leads me to create something that ultimately will promote healing and help others. 

......to be continued.


Right, now onto another year. It has been quite an eventful year, one with struggles and adjustments.  With the surgery has come some complications, new challenges occur but are being dealt with by some of the best Doctors I have ever had. San Antonio certainly is the medical city!  The difficulties do not restrain my work only increase my own desire to accomplish even more, I value my time on earth even more than before and trust me, that was pretty intense then. I am busier than ever, I have great plans for Amber's Organics and cannot stop until I feel a sense of fulfillment and that things are where they should be.

 

The Tea and soap bar are in full swing.

My new door sign. I love it.

The great event!

Starstruck - With Mark Farner.   ( He's all organic too! He even signed my business card)


I met Mark Farner and his lovely wife at Mike Momar music store grand opening in San Antonio TX. it was quite an event. Fern has been a life long fan of this renounded icon and so we were both starstruck to say the least. here I am standing next to Mrs Mark Farner, what an honour. #markfarner


Gynura - the most nutritious salad addition. Below.


The first Garlic of spring! I found these tucked away under my roses. I had forgotten all about them, a welcome surprise.


I have even more hungry cats to feed and care for. If you wish to donate food or service to the gorgeous gang please feel free to contact me. All of my Cats are rescued or saved from something quite terrible and need all the love they can get.  At Amber's Organics they find the peace and love they deserve, we finally built them a catio for their own safety and would welcome help of any kind. Vets bills are high and donations always make the animals life more comfortable.  Outside Cats: Saved. Bobby. Belladonna. Ginger. Indoor. Issac. Meridith. Sage. Ester.The new kitten. Miss Marbles.

Activated charcoal is so porous!
Activated charcoal is so porous that it can absorb much more toxins and atoms and ions, than its own weight. In terms of skin care, this porous activated charcoal helps in cases of acne to purify skin. Again it is wonderful for cleaning makeup off the skin. Basically it works great for skin impurities. Activated charcoal can clear clogged pores by drawing out dirt, grime, oil and other impurities that clog the skin. It is capable of trapping bacteria, surface dirt, poisons and chemicals and make skin pure.This helps in acne and uneven skin pigmentation as well.

What does it exactly mean to live organically? Well, aside from eating organic foods, organic living applies to many things. This day and age, our home living environments are constantly inundated with products, many of which we have grown so accustomed to, that we really don't always stop to think if they could be affecting our health - especially in the long term. Many people who have made the switch to organic and natural living, oftentimes were prompted to do so because of unexplained health conditions (such as allergies) that seemingly popped up overnight. It goes to show how much we truly don't know about the repercussions and effects of man-made chemicals and artificial substances present in our daily lives. If you stop to think about it, it makes perfect sense to live as Mother Nature intended us to. Even if you can't do everything organically, you can at least try doing things more naturally. Please take your time to read up on our organic living tips and articles presented below. If you're like us, you will be surprised how much there is to learn about organic living.
