Book Description
In my book, Native American Herbal Healing Apothecary, you will learn about how the Native Americans used herbs and plants as natural healing remedies for any condition or ailment. All over North America, the indigenous people found a way to make medicine using the plants and resources they had on hand. You can use those same plants to cure almost any common ailment, from PMS to headaches to stomach aches to the common flu. I owe my interest and love of herbal apothecary and herbalism to my dear family friend Grace. She lived next door to my childhood home, which was near a large, open field. Often, before I was old enough to realize it, she taught me all about what herbs to use to help with my run of the mill ailments. This volume of more than 50 of the most effective herbs from Native American culture and folklore is the result of years of research birthed from that initial spark. Within the pages of this book, you'll find these natural remedies categorized by their healing properties. Got a headache? Then look under that heading to find the natural remedies that not only the Native Americans used but are also verified scientifically to help. If you have an arthritis flare-up and don't want to reach for the mega-strength drug, look it up here to find a safer way to extinguish the pain. I also provide you with a short, comprehensive review of the history of herbalism. We'll talk about the growing profession of herbalists and what that entails in today's increasingly technological age. I've also included thorough instructions for making your own tinctures, pastes, and other applications of these seemingly miraculous plants.
