Dude, are you high? No judgement, just asking
I love how his shirt matches the flowers
So enjoyed you both – the sneeze was a perfect extra โค
My first thought was red clover..oops
Wood Betony you mean.
don't forget that as a diuretic it can flush medicine out of the system before it has benefited the patient , so not allways wise to take before checking. Glad to see your caveats at the beginning so often people give advice without warnings
I absolutely love this video. I just found a bunch of self heal in my yard and I never knew what it was before.
We didnโt have it in California but I recently moved to Virginia and itโs all over the place. I googled self heal and found your video and Iโm so happy I did.
Your knowledge and charisma really makes your video a pleasure to watch. You both really seem like amazing people who love life and nature.
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us.
What do you recommend for kidneys
I've been searching high and low, near and far and still cannot find this beautiful plant๐ฎ
Beautiful video!! Very informative. Thank you x
Maybe it helps heal the sound in your video because I canโt hear you..
Your enthusiasm is contagious ๐ Excellent video!
Can I make a salve with this when it's dried ?
Iโve had a cough and sore throat for 8 weeks – GP gave me 2 lots of antibiotics and I was still coughing up stuff. I drank one cup of self heal and it has healed my cough I have not coughed in 24 hours and my throat has eased โฆ, thankyou soooooooooo very much for these amazing videos and for your books which I have both – and I would buy another book if youโre up for creating another wonderful wonder ๐๐๐๐โค
๐ฑ๐ชด๐ชป๐ฟ๐ณ๐ผ
Would you say it's okay to dehydrate them in a dehydrator???
Exactly the information I was searching for thank you
๐๐คโค๏ธ Just ordered your book ๐ God Bless
You two are so cute! I absolutely loved your video but the sneeze was my favorite part!
Can't hear you
can i oven dry them?
Are you going to get parasites if you donโt wash it?
Thank you! Now I know that Leprechauns are real!โค
Lost sound
Very informative! Thanks for the video. Please do not use teflon pots or plastic/silicon spatula (especially if it gets warm/hot). They are not good for your health.
I just had a coworker send me a picture of self-heal and linden flowers asking what they were.
I immediately jumped on the motorcycle and headed to his place and harvested a bunch of both.
Tonight is the first time ever having self-heal tea and interestingly to me it tastes and smells similar to a very mild aroma of canned cooked spinach.
I been waiting a long time to find some and was considering buying seeds this year.
I dug a bunch up at my coworkers and planted it at my place, hoping it will take off and thrive.
audio is too low // otherwise thank you for the video — can't wait to try this herb
Maybe a dumb question but I guess we donโt need to wash them to get rid of the bugs?
Very helpful, thank you ๐
Oh my word I wish Iโd seen this video a few days ago. I have just literally emptied my garden of this herb not knowing what it was. Iโve recently got an allotment and have neglected my own back garden and this has sprung up everywhere. I thought it was a weed so I pulled it all out! I just hope now that I didnโt manage to get the roots and it will come back. Iโm really interested in making the salve as Iโve had a problem with the palm of my hand (just the left for some reason) and it splits open and is very painful, Iโve tried so many over the counter products for this and nothing ever helps so Iโm definitely going to try this one. Iโll be in the garden now looking for the plant with interest. Thank you for this video.
Everything about this is klass, rite down to his shirt
Just found your channel, we went out this morning and picked the self heal and now drying them out to store as you described, thanks for the tips ๐
Can you make this more stronger and more intense to store in a dropper bottle ? Does it loose any benefits if over heated ?
Hi , i love the information in all your videos, THANK YOU ,๐ can i drink Heal all tea and dandelion tea everyday? I did try the Heal All tea the other day and LOVE it !! Thanks again โค
hello. I am currently getting ready to process and store my self-heal harvest. I am reading conflicting information about the temperature of the water. I read in a medicinal herb book written by a PhD that self-heal denigrates in boiling water and it's best to cold brew. I was planning on sending some to an uncle with Hodgkin's lymphoma and was going to send it already cold-processed. It would save a bunch if he could actually use it like traditional tea with hot water. Any thoughts?
Hello guys. I noticed this tiny plant growing wild in my garden last year and I thought I will leave them alone because I like the flowers. Until early this year when I was able to identify the plant via my plant ID app. At that time I really did not know anything else about it until I came across this video. I hope I have heal all in my yard. This low grower is all over my crescent garden now and J have been pulling them out. I guess I have to be vigilant in controlling it. I have a question for you. Can I use the infused coconut oil with the flowers for knee pain/ arthritis? Thanks so much and I am looking forward to a favorable answer.
Hi do you wash it before use it for tea or balm or just use as is?
Bought your book last week, Knowledge To Forage. Great book and wonderful to have something on paper!
Iโve been out exploring the area for a couple of months now and my knowledge is well and truly turbo boosted already ๐
