Within a week's time I received something through a email or RU-vid about Heidi's site. To me it's the best one yet because she puts it where you as the everyday person can understand it.

@ajalicea1091 Год назад

Nicole, Would you be in Georgia? There was a gentleman that had a shop here in town. He passed away of old age. 😢 He was such a wealth of knowledge, wisdom, and information when it came to herbs and various natural remedies. His family tried to keep the business going but due to someone else who had a similar business, bad mouthing them, having their orders canceled, ect... they tired of the fight and closed down. I don't say much to anyone about the other business. I did try them for a little while. Felt uncomfortable in their shop. Asked them about reflexology. Their version of it was a foot soak. Which is wrong from the investigating/ researching that I've done. So after that I don't see them anymore.

Hi Heidi! Do you have any videos that are just a general overview of what herbs are good for what?

@HeidiVillegas Год назад

Well, no....not at this time. That's because herbs don't work like drugs do....and every body is different. What most herbalists will do, especially if they are knowledgeable and work holistically, is to match the herb with the individual. So many herbs can have broad ranges of use, too. With common remedies, that's different....

@AshleyWatsonFanpage Год назад

I have a question! I’ve been making my own tea blends but when you make a blend do you only still use a teaspoon up to a tablespoon per cup? I guess I’m asking because will you get the potency you want per herb? Take elderberry for cold and flu season for example. If the bag of elderberry says a teaspoon per cup but I put it in a blend.. I wouldn’t technically be getting a teaspoon per cup of just elderberry if I put it in a blend. Does that matter?

@HeidiVillegas Год назад

Yes, it definitely matters. The amount of herb you use, especially when blending for therapeutic reasons, matters a great deal. The other factor that makes a huge difference is the infusion time. A strong infusion may need to steep for several hours or even over night, depending on the herbs used and your specific needs. :-)

@HeidiVillegas 3 года назад

Oh....the elusive fruit flavor! :-) This is hard or impossible from just the dried fruit. Most tea makers use an extract of some kind of flavoring. This is why you need to pay close attention to the flavorings in commercial teas---they don't have to share exactly what's in them. What I do is purchase a natural extract (organic) from a quality place---or I'll often make my own and spritz the tea leaves with the extract.

@HeidiVillegas 7 месяцев назад

Hi, Tammy! Not necessarily. Herbal formulas are often used for immediate relief for acute situations, and they can also be used tonically for more chronic complaints or just for general wellness. You will be getting benefits by drinking herbal teas. The thing is, you need to be aware of the individual's needs, their constitution, and know your intention as well as the herbs you're choosing. I welcome you to join our community by getting on my email list as I share information weekly. My website is another great source of information too, and of course here on RU-vid. I do have a school and offer courses whenever you're ready. :-)

I think I missed how much of this to use when you make the tea?

@HeidiVillegas 4 года назад

Here is an article that has this chai recipe (minus the pink peppercorns---I just sprinkled some in for the video because they are so pretty).

When you are talking about rose petals. Can you use any rose petal? Or just certain types of roses?

@HeidiVillegas 4 года назад

Hi, Valerie! You can use any rose petals...but just be sure they are unsprayed. DON'T use the floral ones...as these are some of the most sprayed plants ever. Use organic petals or those you can verify are unsprayed. :-)

@valerieoliver4957 4 года назад

@@HeidiVillegas Thank you. I have a beautiful wild rose bush that I have used to make jelly with. So they aren't sprayed. So this is good. Thanks again.

Ma'am, I am too much exited, that I found your channel. I already download, printed and make book form of your two pdf books. I have a question that, how I can find out that which Herbs is the Action.Primary Herbs, so I can figure out the %. And is there any way to reach you directly to learn more about. Thanks

@HeidiVillegas 9 месяцев назад

Hi! It all depends on what your intention for the formula is, the person you're creating for, and the plants you have available. I'd love for you to become a student of our school, as we talk LOTS about creating effective formulations holistically for our friends, families, and clients.

Hi Heidi, is lemon balm safe for people with thyroid issues or should I substitute it for something else for this blend? Blessings to you and your family! 🌹🌸🏵

@HeidiVillegas Год назад

You know? That's a great Q. Some people with low T do have sensitivities to lemon balm. Others I've come across don't. You can certainly substitute it, though! Milky oats is a nice sub for relaxation and nervous system support that's gentle. I can't remember if the oats are already in the recipe (it's been a couple of years), but you can simply add more if you like. That's very wonderful, safe herb.

Do you have suggestions on where we should buy bulk herbs?

@HeidiVillegas 4 года назад

Hi! Yes, I sure do, as I've purchased from a number of places. My favorite places to buy bulk herbs, to be honest, are small local herb farmers. See if there is one near you. Often you can find them selling at farmer's markets with an online shop. Next up for quality is Starwest Botanicals. I love this shop of all the bulk herb stores I've tried. Amazon is an absolute last pick, and so are any local shops in your city. This is because the turnover often isn't great enough for the herbs to retain their quality. Here's an aff link to Starwest, in case you want to check them out: bit.ly/StarBot

@ajalicea1091 Год назад

Mountain Rose Herbs is also a good place to check out.

@adelaolivero9966 9 месяцев назад

I have all the ingredients for the relaxation tea. How much do you use x cup of water? Do you boil it or just pour boiling water on the herbs? Steeping time? Thank you for your reply. ❤❤❤ loved your video.

@HeidiVillegas 9 месяцев назад

Yes! About 1 tsp (or two if you like a stronger tea) in a cup, with just boiled water over the top. Steep (in general) for about 20 minutes. Enjoy! Sweeten if you like.

@lisakiel9695 4 года назад

Chamomile always makes me feel sick what can i use instead please

@HeidiVillegas 4 года назад

Hi, Lisa! If you're trying to get the relaxing benefits of the chamomile, I suggest lemon balm or possibly skullcap. :-)

@HeidiVillegas 8 месяцев назад

I like Starwest Botanicals if you're beginning: bit.ly/StarBot Foster Farms Botanicals carries excellent herb, and so do most smaller herb farms, and my favorite in that category is Reverie Farm in Troy Idaho.🥰

@rickanddonnasplace3225 2 года назад

Can you use any kind of rose petals.

@HeidiVillegas 2 года назад

Yes---any rose petals are just fine as long as they're organic OR organically grown. This is important because roses are one of the most heavily sprayed crops in the world.

@unabarwick7513 Год назад

How many days you have to put the roses out to dry .. can you use the blue one too.thank you for the reply and thank you hon enjoy your day stay strong love you guys stay strong in Christ Jesus ❤😂

@HeidiVillegas Год назад

If you're using fresh roses, you can remove the petals, and they'll dry more quickly. You'll know they're dry when they're rather "crisp" but not losing color. The number of days it takes depends on your climate. The more humid, the more days.

@rainerbalberona2120 4 года назад

very informative and helpful. thank you so much. Any idea how to store herbs in those bottles. i tried storing dried herbs for my homemade tea blend but it came out that molds are spoiling them :-( Any advice?

@HeidiVillegas 4 года назад

Hi, Rainer! Yes, it is very important to be sure the herbs are completely dry, and the jars are glass and also completely dry. Then store in a cool, dark place---Light, heat, oxygen, and moisture will destroy your herbal teas. You can find out a lot more about herbs here if you like: www.healingharvesthomestead.com/how-to-get-started-using-herbs

Just a note to say that just because something is good for a particular issue it may not be ideal. A friend has gallbladder problems so of course stepped up turmeric. In that case, it was a BAD idea because the problem was little nodules on the inside of the gallbladder. So something that stimulated the gallbladder wasn't helpful in that instance

@HeidiVillegas 7 месяцев назад

Absolutely. This is why herbalists will always say to do further research for contraindications on any herb or essential oil you use. Or, if you're working with an herbalist as a client relationship, the herbalist will do a complete intake to be sure that recommendations are meant for the specific person. Even very safe herbs such as turmeric (and even ginger, garlic, rosemary and other "food" herbs) can cause issues if people have certain health conditions.
