There are numerous teas to drink that can lower stress levels, remove toxins from your body, and boost your immune system with disease-fighting nutrients.

I like including herbs in a bath or shower with soaps, bath teas, masks, salts, and scrubs. Try different herbs and combinations to de-stress, relax, and revive.
I’ll be posting some great herbal remedies and some of my favorite recipes, so keep checking back for new content. I’ll also make you aware of any contraindications, so you can feel safe as you explore the power hiding in your own spice cabinet. If you’re struggling with a larger health issue, feel free to contact me for a consultation.
