Herbalism 101: Dill
EP. 5
Tumblr media
Fun fact! "Dill" comes from an old English word that means "to lull" because it was often used to soothe colicky babies.
Associations: Money, luck
Uses in the kitchen
Most commonly used in Eastern European, Russian, and Middle Eastern cuisines, dill is used in a wide array of food. You most likely think of pickles, which uses the top part of the plant. The leaves or "aerial" part of the plant is used most of the time in cooking. It goes great in acidic and savory foods, as well as with food like salmon and eggs.
Uses in healing
I tend to used the seeds more frequently when it comes to herbalism. I will often chew on a seed or two to help with bad breath. Some people also use the seeds in a tea to help with period cramps.
Uses in witchcraft
Carrying seeds in a small pouch or your pocket will attract luck and money. Similarly, using the herb in cooking with intention will attract the same. Because you can buy it dried for the kitchen, I love using it in spell jars.
Tips for growing at home
Dill is resilient and can grow in most climates in summer. An outdoor pot or garden is best though, because it can get tall. It is a great companion plant for cabbage but not carrots!
Recipe
One of my favorite family recipes is super simple and tasty. Dill dip is something we always have at family functions.
You need:
2 part sour cream
1.5 part cream cheese
1/4 part dried dill
1/4 part garlic powder
Mix and enjoy with Hawaiian rolls !

Just thinking about herbalism today. Trying to get myself refocused on my purpose. This was the day I received my masters degree. Reminding myself that herbs can actually help with illness and that I have created remedies and witnessed their healing power.

Herbalism 101: Bay Leaves
EP. 2
Tumblr media
Bay leaves are one of my absolute favorite herbs when cooking with intention. They are delicious and very common in tons of food cultures. On top of this, they are quite easily accessible.
Properties: Protection, healing, success
Uses in the Kitchen
Bay laurel, more commonly referred to as Bay leaves, is a very versatile plant. I often use it in cooking to flavor stocks or pickled goods. With such an aromatic flavor, it tastes great in hearty or acidic dishes. Tying a bunch together with bay leaves, rosemary, and thyme is a great way to add flavor to stock.
Uses in Healing
Bay leaves have a number of benefits when used in herbalism. Bay leaves do have many digestion related benefits. They can help with bloating and gas, in this case I usually use them to make a tea along with peppermint. The leaves are also good for treating certain skin ailments that do not involve broken skin, such as dandruff! Adding bay leaf oil into your hair care routine would be a good option.
Uses in Witchcraft
Bay leaves, particularly in witchcraft, are extremely versatile. One of the most common uses is setting intentions. The easiest way I have found to do this is to use a marker or candle wax to write out your intentions or a sigil onto the Bayleaf itself. I will often use this in simmer pots or cooking (if you are cooking with it, make sure it is a safe marker for that use). Some other ways to use this is burning they leave or putting it in your shoe to carry with you throughout the day.
Tips for Growing at Home
Bay leaves come from a tree called Bay Laurel. They can be grown inside and pruned to be kept at a certain size, but because they are a slow growing tree they can ultimately reach very large sizes when grown outdoors. If you are attempting to grow it inside the most important things are well draining soil, the right amount of humidity, and lots and lots of sunlight. 
Bay leaf tea
In order to make this tasty and beneficial tea, you only need a few things: 2 bay leaves, 1 cinnamon stick, and hot water. Steep the ingredients as you would any tea and enjoy while hot. I drink this when I'm having stomach issues or I'm feeling a bit on edge.
As always, this is not medical advice. These are helpful home tips and remedies, but they will not cure diseases.

I didn't want this to die on the bottom of a long post. I feel like it needs to be said. This is pertaining to herbal medicine being used for serious conditions. Many people believe herbs are just for minor conditions, which is not true. Herbs provide lower dosages that the body tends to handle better. Medications contain large concentrations that can overload the body and cause side effects. That doesn't mean modern medicine is the devil though. There are many benefits to modern medicine and both should be used together.
Hello! I'm a clinical herbalist, which means I got my masters in therapeutic herbalism. I also have a bachelor's in biology. I don't 100% agree with statements like this (herbs are for minor conditions). There are herbs that can help better than medical treatment, and there is a time for medical treatment. Sometimes, they work beautifully together. For instance, elderberry will help with cold and flu (a literal infection) symptoms in 3 days. This is both something I have seen in multiple people and read in a peer reviewed recent journal article.
Also, my mother was diagnosed with autoimmune hepatitis, and I had to beg her to listen to me about changing her diet and adding herbs to her medication. I had to pour over an insane amount of articles because she didn't believe herbs could help. She finally listened to me, which was a great thing because her doctor was shit, and wasn't monitoring her condition. He told her she will most likely die without a transplant and then never applied to put her on a transplant list. Then he got smart with her when she was asking questions about her condition. She switched doctors and her new doctor said that her medication should have been lessened over time and that he could have killed her. Because I recommended she include nettles and ganoderma into her diet, her body was able to account for the imbalance. My mom started listening to me more, and now she doesn't feel any pain from the arthritis prolonged medication caused. Her liver has completely recovered without a transplant. She lost a lot of the swelling from her medication. She lives a completely normal life. I'm not anti-modern medicine, but there is evidence that herbal medicine treatments can have a positive affect on chronic and serious conditions.
Consult an actual expert when you need help. If that expert can't tell you when you need a doctor, then move on. Doctors kill people on a regular basis, but someone with just as much training in herbal medicine doesn't have that luxury, so they will tell you that you need a doctor.
