The Dandelion is an herbaceous plant that really is much more than just a nuisance in your yard. For all purposes, the Dandelion leaves are at their best just as they emerge from the ground and they are very distinct as nothing really resembles this at all. Depending on when you harvest the Dandelion leaves will determine the bitterness of them but it is an appealing bitterness.
These leaves that are considered an herb blend nicely with salads and do well either sauted or steamed. Many claim the taste is similar to that of endive. People who are into eating the fruits of nature claim that it is perfectly acceptable to eat the Dandelion flower as well. Some claim that they make outstanding fritters if they are battered up and fried and make a colorful contribution to any stir fry. Read more...

Clinical depression is defined as ‘a persistent exaggeration of the everyday feelings that accompany sadness‘.
If you have severe depression you may experience low mood, loss of interest and pleasure as well as feelings of worthlessness and guilt. You may also experience tearfulness, poor concentration, reduced energy, reduced or increased appetite and weight, sleep problems and anxiety. You may even feel that life is not worth living, and plan or attempt suicide.
Depression can affect anyone, of any culture, age or background. About twice as many women as men seek help for depression, though this may reflect the greater readiness of women to discuss their problems.
One thing that may make it hard for doctors to recognise depression is that people with depression often complain of physical problems, commonly headaches, lethargy, stomach upsets or joint pains, rather than low mood, sometimes because these can be significant symptoms, but sometimes because they find it difficult to admit to feeling emotionally distressed for reasons they may not even be able to identify.

Aromatherapy has become something of a buzzword for the health and beauty industries. But it is actually a type of alternative medicine that goes back to the early twentieth century. Contrary to popular belief, true aromatherapy is not merely the use of scents to alter mood. It is the use of fragrant essential oils to treat a variety of ailments. And one of the most frequent uses of aromatherapy is in the fight against stress and anxiety.
Aromatherapy is ideal for anxiety sufferers who are apprehensive about using prescription drugs. While aromatherapy alone won’t cure acute anxiety, it can provide temporary relief. It also works well for those who do not have clinical anxiety but are suffering from unusual amounts of stress.
There are several essential oils that are effective in the treatment of anxiety. These include:
* Lavender – This is one of the most popular aromatherapy oils. Its scent is very pleasant, and it works as a sedative. Lavender oil is found in many commercial products, including baby washes and lotions. Read more...

VARIOUS CIVILISATIONS throughout history have employed the use of aromatic plants for religious, medicinal, cosmetic and magickal purposes. One of the earliest forms of aromatherapy was the use of aromatic plants as Incense. The word perfume comes from the Latin word perfumum, which means through smoke. This would have originally referred to the use of Incense. Incense was burned as a way to get rid of evil spirits, which many of the ancients considered to be the cause of disease. Associations became made between the healing of disease and the aromas of the plants used in the healing treatments, and this became the early foundation for what we now know today as aromatherapy.

Belladonna is not an herb that you are going to want to stock your pantry with. While it has its benefits, this is an herb that can be very dangerous and sometimes even fatal. It has some medicinal properties to it and has an interesting history but it can be very dangerous. The nickname “deadly nightshade” is a good clue of its potency. There is however a tincture that comes from this plant that is used for medicinal purposes. Belladonna is a perennial herb that is native to Europe and Asia Minor but is now grown quite often in the United States, Europe, and India. When the plant is in full bloom the plant is harvested and then dried for use.
The most important contribution from Belladonna is atropine which is an important agent that is useful in dilating the pupils of the eye. This has proven to be very beneficial. Even small doses of atropine can cause the heart rate to increase. Some cough syrups are known to contain atropine and are used for bronchitis and whooping cough. Further it is used to soothe the stomach lining prior to an anesthetic being administered and also for peptic ulcers. Read more...

Thyme is a very popular and well known culinary herb. It is a very decorative plant while it is growing and is also very easy to grow as well but be prepared because bees just love Thyme. Many people use Thyme in stews, salads, meats, soups, and vegetables. Thyme is a very common household herb and is a member of the mint family. The plant is very aromatic and comes in many varieties. Thyme is a frequently used herb in many fish dishes. Oddly enough as much as honey bees love to suck the nectar from the Thyme plant is as much as other insects loathe it. Some people have been known to make a mist spray of Thyme and water and use it as a bug repellent.
Various forms of Thyme are available year round but many people prefer to grow their own. Nothing beats the smell and taste of fresh Thyme as long as you know to pick it just as the flowers appear. Once fresh Thyme is harvested it should be stored in either a plastic bag in the crisper or stood straight up in a glass of water on the shelf in the refrigerator for easy access. Read more...

Flower Remedies are diluted extracts of various flowers which are preserved and usually taken by mouth by people and animals for various discomforts. Flower Remedies are a vibrational remedy. Therefore, flower remedies work alongside sound therapy, color therapy, aura healing and the like on the subtle energy fields of the body.
Flower remedies have their greatest effect on emotional issues and mental states and thus differ from herbs or plant remedies that work primarily on the physical body. However, this should not be understood to mean that there are no visible results. People who regularly use flower remedies and essences know their effectiveness and use flower remedies for numerous malaises. Results are seen with flower essences when taken over a period of time. However, one can begin to see the effects right away in many cases.
Often people use affirmations along with each daily dose, and of course, simply the act of taking the essences reminds them of their desire to correct whatever difficulty they are experiencing. This in itself may have some restorative powers. Most people who use flower essences feel that they experience big shifts in their lives, always in a very positive manner. Read more...
