This is Maria Noël Groves’s second time on the show, and I’m thrilled to have her back! You can tell that Maria is an herbal teacher, because this episode is packed with in-depth herbal information about lemon balm. She shares so much wisdom about lemon balm’s gifts that I just can’t wait to get into the garden and work with this wonderful plant again!
Maria also shared many ways to work with lemon balm, including her recipe for Lemon Balm Fresh Tincture. The free, downloadable and printable recipe card for this recipe can be found in the resource section below.
When might you turn to lemon balm? Here are just a few instances when lovely lemon balm can be helpful:
► When you want to improve your focus
► When you’re feeling stressed out or anxious, and need some nervous system support
► When you need some immune system and antiviral support
But in all of these cases, you need to know how to source or prepare the most potent herbal medicines with lemon balm. Otherwise, your results will probably be disappointing. Tune in to the entire episode for all the details so you can enjoy the most lemon balm benefits!
By the end of this episode, you’ll know:
► How herbs can help to support you in getting a good night’s sleep
► What makes lemon balm such a powerful herbal ally
► Why it’s important to source high-quality lemon balm (or grow your own!)
► Three tips for harvesting lemon balm when it is most potent
► Maria’s tips for making a glycerite with lemon balm
► Why it’s best to get to know herbs by working with them, rather than simply reading lists about what they’re “good for”
► and so much more…
