Creating a Herbal First Aid Kit
A simple and very easy way to incorporate the use of herbs into your everyday life is by creating an herbal first aid kit. Due to the versatile nature of herbs it is a very cost effective way to treat small everyday first aid needs your family may have. A single herb can have more than one use. Making your own medicine is also a great way to empower yourself and keep the healing art of herbalism alive.
10 herbs I recommend keeping on hand for your herbal first aid kit are;
Catnip
Ginger
Lavender
Garlic
Horehound
Peppermint
Scullcap
White Willow Bark
Calendula
Arnica
I will explain more in depth the qualities of each herb in my other blogs during this week and next. I will also be including some easy remedies you can try yourself at home.
