A little antidote to those Monday back-to-work str A little antidote to those Monday back-to-work stresses! 🌿 With half-term over, I imagine many of you back to work feeling a little frazzled. I’m out in the garden today with one of my favourite herbs, Siberian ginseng – a wonderful adaptogen traditionally used to help cope with everyday stress and fatigue. I thought I’d share a little about why I love it so much and how it can support us through life’s busier moments. 🌱
LAST MINUTE SPACE AVAILABLE! A space has just bec LAST MINUTE SPACE AVAILABLE! A space has just become available on the previously sold out rasayana course that we are holding here next Tuesday and Wednesday - 3rd and 4th November. The course runs from 10am to 4pm each day and includes a vegetarian lunch. This workshop explores the Ayurvedic science of rejuvenation, rasayana, one of the eight classical branches of Ayurveda. Rasayana therapies are designed to strengthen immunity, enhance vitality, build resilience to stress and slow the ageing process. Traditionally recommended after detoxification, rasayana is especially beneficial for when you are tired, rundown, depleted after illness or during times of stress, during recovery or convalescence, for vata conditions and when used appropriately, at key life stages such as pregnancy, post-partum and childhood. Contact admin@annemcintyre.com with any questions - hope to see you next week!
A little glimpse of the wild beauty of Mallorca 🌿 A little glimpse of the wild beauty of Mallorca 🌿 I’ve just returned from a wonderful trip to the Ariant Nature Reserve, home to magnificent black vultures, dramatic landscapes and an abundance of wild herbs. I’ve been lucky enough to bring groups of herbal students here over the years, and it never loses its magic. One of my favourite things is the wild rosemary growing everywhere. Anyone who knows me will know rosemary is my absolute favourite herb! 🌿 Rosemary (Salvia rosmarinus) is so much more than a beautiful, aromatic plant. Rich in antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds, it has been treasured for centuries for its medicinal properties. It’s particularly valued for memory and concentration. Even inhaling its scent may help improve alertness and memory, while its powerful plant compounds are being studied for their ability to protect brain cells from oxidative stress. Rosemary can also help protect liver cells, perhaps explaining its traditional reputation as the ‘hangover herb’! There’s something very special about seeing a herb you know and love thriving in its natural habitat. I’m running a number of courses next year for anyone interested in learning more about herbs and how to use them in everyday life. Do check them out! 🌿 #HerbalMedicine #Rosemary #Mallorca #MedicinalPlants
