How do you deal with stress in your life? Do you h How do you deal with stress in your life? Do you have habits and strategies that encourage your emotional and mental resilience? This is the topic of my next course ‘Herbs for Mental and Emotional Resilience’. Taking place here at Artemis House on 14th May we will be looking at a range of tools to help you manage stress, from self care practices to dietary changes, as well as taking a look at herbs and spices from both Eastern and Western healing systems, including rose, cinnamon, California poppy, vervain and gotu kola. Life can be full of potential upsets, and you probably hear the word ‘stress’ very frequently. Many of us have frenetic lifestyles, taxing work schedules, challenges of raising children, changing relationships and even health problems. Whether or not we find these life occurrences stressful varies from one person to another - after all one person’s stress is another’s exciting challenge! But what is stress? According to the World Health Organisation, ‘stress can be defined as a state of worry or mental tension caused by a difficult situation…stress is a natural human response that prompts us to address challenges and threats in our lives’. So one way of looking at stress is that it is a sign that we need to make changes in how we are living from day to day. If you are interested in finding out more about how you can create the resilience to deal with the stresses in your life, come and join us on the 14th May! Find out more via link in bio.
A throwback to some photos taken last month when w A throwback to some photos taken last month when we had the first of three workshops for The Practical Home Herbalist course. We took full advantage of the herbs available in March by making a delicious green smoothie (recipe in this month’s newsletter) as well as a salad of seasonal herbs and edible flowers. So pretty! We also had leek and nettle soup and a wild pesto of sorrel, wild garlic, chickweed and cleavers.
I have taken full advantage of the drier weather o I have taken full advantage of the drier weather over the last few weeks to get out in the garden as much as I can - no hardship as it’s my favourite place to be! The snow drops and daffodils have been magnificent and I am looking forward to the tulips that will follow. It takes a team to look after this garden and over the winter Brad has been working hard on the heavier landscape maintenance, putting us in a great position now as the weather warms up and everything starts to grow. We have also had two days of our wonderful garden volunteers, who have helped enormously with the spring jobs of clearing out the greenhouse and starting to sow the annual seeds, as well as tidying the hundreds of pots of seedlings we have on the stage - and of course weeding, the job that never ends! Our next garden volunteer day is on 13th April - if you too would like to get involved you can sign up via the link in our bio. Have a great Easter weekend - I hope the weather is kind and you can get out into nature 🌿🌿

I took this video of the herb garden the other mor I took this video of the herb garden the other morning and was struck by its calm stillness compared to the bustle and energy it has in full summer. The New Year often inspires us to make changes to our daily lives, sometimes with challenging resolutions and promises to ourselves to take more exercise, eat better and so on. But we need to remember that we are still in winter, a season that invites us to slow down and conserve energy until the warmth of spring returns - to hibernate really! Ṛtucharya is an Ayurvedic word that means living in rhythm with the changing seasons. It’s about adapting our lifestyle to the climate, the cold, our environment, our time of life and the demands of our daily routine. Over the next couple of posts I’m going to share a little more about adapting our lives to these seasonal rhythms, telling you more about the doshas and their seasons and giving you some ideas of how to support yourself with adaptations to your lifestyle and diet, as well as some useful herbs for you to try. I hope you find this information useful - let me know if there’s anything specific you’d like me to cover! #ayurveda #rtucharya #seasonalhealth
