Healing Herbs


I have been experimenting with herbal remedies lately as many of my garden herbs are still fresh. 
From fresh parsley, I made a warm decoction by simmering fresh leaves for 20 minutes.  The smell and taste was delicate and purifying as it is a good liver and kidney tonic. 



Warm Parsley decoction


I also made a Chamomile ointment using fresh Chamomile, beeswax and a scented oil. 

Following an injury on my knee I started to use the ointment which felt soothing and the massage has helped with the recovery
