Herbal Bitters can really aid the digestive system so it is a good practice to take them just before a large meal - the sort we eat at Christmas time. Herbal Bitters can also have a very positive effect on all the body systems as there are bitter receptors throughout the body.
Today I am making Herbal Bitters to show you how to do it yourself. Usually I would have them made before now but I managed to find enough of the bitter plants that traditionally would make up a Bitters Degustation.
If you would like to know more about supporting yourself and your family with your own medicine, you might like the Introduction to Herbal Medicine course that I offer. Here you will learn about the body systems, the history of medicine, methods of making herbal medicine and even how to design, build and grow a herb garden. Take a look at the course here -

Another way that I like to work with plants is via the Celtic Wheel of the Year. In the Wise Woman Way training, we follow the Wheel of the Year, finding and connecting with plant allies along the way. This is a transpersonal course, drawing on druidic and shamanic healing techniques. You can find out more about it here - www.danusirish...
In February next I am teaching a course about Brigid, the Irish Goddess and how we celebrate Imbolc in the old ways. This is a course that has been designed to help people connect with their Celtic Roots. The course is

Recipe for Bitters - I used Dandelion Leaves and Roots; Yarrow, Chamomile; Calendula/Marigold Flowers, Wormwood along with dried Elecampane, Fennel Seeds and Peppermint. Simply chop them all up and place in a Kilner/Mason jar. Cover with brandy and leave to infuse for 3-4 weeks. You can also use Vervain, Agrimony, Ginger, Hops, Burdock Root, Dock Root and many others. When infusion is complete, strain out the herbs and put the bitters into a bottle. Dose - take 1tsp to 1tblspn about 15 mins before eating. It is best to take bitters straight on to the tongue but perhaps add the bitters to a little drop of water until you get used to the bitter taste. Make sure there are no herbs in the mix that might be contra-indicated for you.
