Wild medicinal mushroom foraging, harvest and the soup I made…..

My first thrilling foray into mushroom hunting. I cooked about 10 pounds of them today. They're amazing I didn't even pick a third of what was there. I'm so excited these are highly medicinal and delicious both. Medicinal mushrooms have been helping me a lot every fall -- the rest of the year I can't... Continue Reading →

I’m thrilled…lab work proves I’m doing it right! (thyroid issues and herbs)

I tested hyperthyroid about 6 weeks ago...it made my iatrogenic nervous system chaos far worse.
I took herbs (mostly a variety of different but particular nervine herbs which I made into teas and sipped therapeutically throughout the day) and did yoga, concentrating on a few poses for supporting my thyroid and also emphasized certain healthy foods in my diet. A few days ago I sensed I no longer needed the herbs (I continuously intuitively took what I needed, not what is generally prescribed by herbalists, even...I totally listened to my body and the energetics of the herbs) So I stopped the herbs a few days ago as they seemed to no longer be needed and in fact were not agreeing with me anymore and so I stopped them over the course of a few days.
Today it's been 6 weeks since I last tested and my thyroid test came back NORMAL. … [click on title for the rest of the post]

Mama earth in action

I actually woke up this morning thinking I'd arrived. I'm well...even if still disabled by conventional standards. From the outside looking in I'd be perceived as ill in many regards. I have many practical limitations. I remain unable to make most commitments that most people take for granted, for example. Also, I need a lot of support to manage what might be called activities of daily living. All the critically mundane tasks one must get done to survive. I need help. But from my standpoint I'm well. I'm in touch with what I need to do to live consciously...that is being well as far as I'm concerned. I know what I need and I know what sort of boundaries and limits I need to make for myself. I am privileged to have certain critical supports I need. Other needs remain unmet. We are stretched to the max financially and emotionally. The razor's edge follows me everywhere. Not having society or extended family support in a family of two with one member disabled is rough. And given it feels impossible sometimes, I'm always thinking of those who have far less than I do. Still knowing what I know...this is good stuff.
