In this talk Christina will draw on her extensive knowledge of herbal remedies through the ages to provide listeners with some interesting ideas for managing stress naturally.
She will include references to making protective posies of herbs against infection, as well as pomander beads made to protect against “noxious air”. She will also talk about Clove pink syrup, which was taken by the settlers on their perilous voyage across the Atlantic in the seventeenth century for anxiety and is a popular remedy today in Christina’s practice, and using cowslip syrup for insomnia.
Christina's talk will include the use of herbs that can be found in the garden, such as rosemary, mints, roses and bitter orange flowers. She will also explain how to make a moist pot-pourri to last a lifetime, and will demonstrate how to make a panic pillow. If you wish to make your own panic pillow along with Christina the AMH will send you details of the ingredients required before the talk.
