Manage episode 417109064 series 2937026
I am thrilled to have David Winston back on the show! Like his last episode, which featured nettles, this episode is absolutely packed with knowledge and wisdom from David’s 55 years of experience. (Speaking of his incredible storehouse of herbal know-how, if you’d like to study with David, he’s enrolling students now! You can get the details in the show notes. I'm proud to promote David's course as an affiliate partner.)
David’s love of rose really shines through in this episode, and he shares so many ways to work with this wonderful plant!
As a listener, you also have access to David’s recipe for Uplift Tea Blend, as well as his recipe for Rose Petal and Holy Basil Infused Honey. (There’s a free, downloadable and printable recipe card available just for you.)
When might you turn to rose? Here are just a few instances when the lovely rose can be helpful:
► When you’re grieving. As David says, “Roses are astonishing not only as a mood elevator, but for broken hearts.”
► As a tonic for your cardiovascular system
► To help quell gut inflammation and heal a leaky gut
But in all of these cases, you need to know which roses are medicinally effective…and which aren’t. Tune in to the entire episode for all the details!
By the end of this episode, you’ll know:
► What to look for (and what to avoid!) when selecting roses to use for medicine
► Nine herbal preparations you can use when working with rose petals, hips, and roots
► The people and conditions that can especially benefit from rose’s gifts
►The importance of gut health to your overall health
► The intriguing way rose is used in traditional Persian medicine
► The key difference between herbal and pharmaceutical anti-inflammatories (and why that matters for your health)
► and so much more…
