This week Katja had a bit of back pain, and has some thoughts to share with you about how this can happen an what to do about it. From mindset management to gentle movements for the release of tension and improving alignment, of course with the support of herbs, here are a few quick tips to get you bending and flexing again. Ryn shares a couple ideas for herbal liquid extracts to combine with sparkling water in a bit of delightful herbal indulgence - that's herbalism too! Herbs discussed this week include kava, lobelia, chamomile, sage & mint, elderflower, and nori & other seaweeds. (Seaweeds were our #herboftheweek on social media this week and last - follow us on social media or check out our blog for more!) ~ Our book Herbal Medicine for Beginners is available now on Amazon! Our theme music is "Wings" by Nicolai Heidlas.Support the show (https://commonwealthherbs.com/supporters/)
