Self-Heal - a MIGHTY little helper 

My 60 year old sister was in bad health; brittle diabetes, no thyroid, 2 kinda of arthritis. She had diarrhea for weeks, up to 30 times a day. The doctor said she had the worst type of fungal infection people can have. Her tongue looked like the bark of a tree. The symptoms were even worse, but you get the idea. She went from 185 pounds to 107 pounds. The doctors tried everything in their books, specialists included. Finally her daughter said 'mom is in bad shape what else can we do-. They said and I quote ' Don't worry, we won't let her suffer. When she gets bad enough, we'll call in hospice'. Don't worry!!! They as much as said we have exhausted everything we know to do; she's dying 😭 I am a firm believer in things that heal naturally, but I let her take the lead and she wanted to do what the doctors told her to do fully believing they could cure her. When she told me they had given up I asked would you like me to try a couple of things. Charcoal caplets mixed with other gut friendly things from our local Amish practitioner, slowed the watery, shredded tree bark diarrhea. I went though my herbs and started her on spilantes tea 3 times a day for a month. When I ran low, I talked to a lady in Idaho I think it is (don't have my catalogs at hand) and ordered some more, because she was improving. She suggested all heal. My sister did a month of that in tea 3 times a day; big improvement. Then we mixed them half and half for another month. She finally dared to stop the tea. After 6 months the diarrhea is mostly stopped. She has gained back up to 128 pounds and looks good! She looks especially healthy for a person the doctor was ready to keep comfortable until they died only a few months ago 😃

WOW, who knew! God has provided everything we could possibly need at our feet and most of us are totally unaware.

I retired and started to study herbalism last autumn. I was so excited to discover that my rural yard and property is full of Self-Heal! I had always wondered what those little purple flowers were. Medicine is all around us.

I grow it, and in mass it is beautiful when it blooms, and have used it for herbal remedies....I had stage four Lymphatic Cancer, and it helped me heal! A favorite herb of mine! We call it Heals All! Lol...

Saving the world, one herb at a time

This grows all around me. I make teas with it daily. It clears up any respiratory and throat issues quickly.

I use self heal as a fever reducer and headache reliever. It dropped my 103 fever down to 98 and got rid of my 4 day long migraine. WONDERFUL herb! Thank the Lord for providing us with natural medicine 😊

One day I had had enough of a temporary depressive phase and just needed to shake it off. I couldn't bring myself to go for a walk, but I managed to go outside and sit in a nearby grassy area and hope that the sun and air would help. I tried to relax around all the bees that surrounded me, as there were a bunch of purple flowers and white clovers around. The sit down helped, but before I went back inside I grabbed a purple flower to ID at a later date. That date was this morning, and lo, you've uploaded a video about it! I like to think it helped me just by sitting around them! :) Good to know there are such beneficial plants all around us.

I found out about this plant in the beginning of Spring. I didn't have any moisturizer and while I was in the hospital for 10 weeks I dried out like a cactus. So, while walking in the fields around my new home I asked Allah to show me something that would help with this issue. I had made my lotion with my oils but no moisturizer. The next thing I looked around and there were tons of this beautiful purple flower! It was like a light switch, one minute I didn't see it the next it illuminated everywhere! So of course, being a modern day Muslim I used Sheikh Google to see what it was. And low and behold it was Self-Heal! Allah is truly Merciful! Our Creator is the coolest!!!!! So now, not only do I drink it to help with my many auto immune issues, I have a spray bottle of it in the bathroom. And when I make ablution (5 x a day and more) I spray the areas I washed to moisturize my skin. Alhamdullilah And of course after a shower, or really anytime I see the bottle I spray it on me to refresh myself and give some much needed self heal love. I have never had a "moisturizer" that made my skin feel the way this does (It feels like a baby's butt), and to know that I am healing my issues and inshaAllah preventing many more. Wow! There is no price tag for such healing! And it is FREE for us, we just need to go and pick it! And Yarrow, thank you so much for your wisdom and your humor and your ease of teaching. It is truly appreciated! Coming from someone who has battled illness all my life (I will be 56 at the end of this month), you are a breath of fresh air and truly sent from God. Thank you and may Allah continue to guide you and give you the resources to flourish by spreading HIS haqq (truths). Amin Amin Amin Salamu alaikum, (Peace be upon you)

Please keep sharing! I love to hear from you. It is like having a neighbor come over and teach me something! Much love!!!

I have LIVER DIEASE, I'm terminally ill,I really need this.

This mighty herb showed up in my yard the day before my kitty had a terrible injury that ended up costing him his leg. Due to this plant he had zero infection and was able to heal pretty quickly. Then I recently and stupidly tried to introduce momma cat to a large dog and she wasn't having that. Decided to kick my ass! Bit and scratched my hand to the point I could not use it at all and my neighbor had to come feed me. I used my self heal salve and BOOM, it was healed literally in 4 days!!! I've always been able to make some amazing medicine, but this was just beyond anything I had expected. Not sure I've seen anything work so fast!

This planet will not change until the people have a global shift in Consciousness. You are helping to achieve that. Thank you so very much

Hoping to heal my liver through the use of herbs and diet. So grateful to God for his gifts and to you for explaining the benefits and how to apply them to our lives.

Made a kick ass pesto with this and many other greens. Very tasty and really healing

I just this plant growing in the yard of a neighbor who didn't cut the lawn . Having some vascular issues and relieved some very distressing news. And look..this popped up . My angels 😇 are very clever . Ty 💜 😊

Me: loving everything he is saying about prunella Also me: geeking out big time about all the other plants that we can see.

I am deep diving into the day to day life of northern European housewives in the 9-10th centuries. Yes, there will be a test! One of the things that I will be tested on is what medicines and herbs would the common household have used in the day to day for illness and injury. Your channel has been perfect for my research. Thank you very much!

The funny thing is... I was just wondering what this plant was that I had in my yard and your video pops up. Very serendipitous. Thanks!

I use this for porphyria cutania tarda. It does a great job of protecting me from the sun.

This herb is growing all over my garden this summer. Its attractive purple colored flowers caught my attention so I looked it and started to learn about. Was so excited to know that it's medicinal!! I couldn't monw my lawn for three weeks so I picked up a lot for drying before mowing the grass. I don't use fertilizers or weed killers on my backyard so "weed" is taking over the grass but this "weed" turns out to be God's pharmacy and it's free!! Thanks so much for such informative video!!

I have this growing all over my yard. The only thing is I used to call it heal all instead of self heal. I heard it said like that one time and I always say the wrong name so it’s funny you repeating the name. Thank you for sharing

Show us how to make medicine aswell and teach us about the dosage and any side effects TEACH US!!!!!!

OMG!! This was super awesome !!! How could 29 people have given this vid a thumbs down? Totally ridiculous! You rock Yarrow!

An episode about meadowsweet would be beautiful. I recently became aware of it through a new friend and i love it.

Thank you so much.. I just found this in my yard everywhere after a few trees were cut down that had been full shade. Time to learn this plant !

Know thyself, Heal thyself

Wow that’s a lot of video for such a little plant fantastic presentation 👍

The amount of wisdom in your presentation and attention to detail in identification is awesome. I've just started an herbal course and I love the blend of art and science you put into this video, which is the first I've ever seen from your channel. Instant fan and I will be enjoying your channel as a supportive reference going forward. Thank you for sharing your wisdom.

I just had a revelation I bet the flower colors match to the chi energy colors

I was just looking at this lovely little plant yesterday, wondering if it was edible. Thank you Yarrow, I'm learning so much from you.

Love this stuff! We have always called it heal all.

Thank you! I want to get back to learning from you again. Been busy putting up foodstuffs for my family, but learning to forage for vital health is equally important. You are so amazing!👵😁🌲🍃🍃 Aww, glad to see you have a furry friend! Love it!💞🐕

We call those “Heal-All” and everything you said is right on. Thanks for putting information about this amazing herb out there😊

I'm so glad that I found your page. It's wonderful to find someone else that is just as nuts as I am about wild harvesting plants and using them for medicine or food. Please, please share more, any books you would recommend, websites, forums, authors. Is there anyway that we could comment back and forth? I'd respectfully would love to pick your brain.

In our garden we have oregano, sage, leaf of life, rosemary, ginger, turmeric, moringa, plantain aka plantango and more herbs and healing plants : we started this years ago.

I have to be at work when this premiers. Hi from Australia

Wow, mahalo, didn't know heal all did so much. I've been using it in my cbd salves for many years. You've taught me much more than my intuition gave. Although might be challenging I've ordered seeds for here on Hawaii island. Plenty lava, windy to an dry with weeks of rain occasionally. Mahalo again I like how you share. Olivia

Wow! I love that I bought 4 little self heal plants from my local plant nursery around the time this virus situation began. It’s happily growing under my elderberry tree🥰 can’t wait for it to flower and make tea. I have had chronic Epstein Barr virus for about 6 years and I use astragalus and elderberry regularly but had no idea self heal was so gentle yet powerful. Go mint family plants! 🤘

Yeow! Biofilm dissolver too or just disrupting? That’s wonderful

I've been finding it everywhere in my yard. Thank you so much for your knowledge about how to use it!

Thank you for your all inclusive information about this beautiful herb!! I truly appreciate the work that you do...

I just started learning about this awesome little plant and the next day i found some growing in my yard haha

Oh my goodness. What an information packed video. Wow! You are incredible in the content you deliver and the way you deliver it. You kept me hanging on your every word. To cap it all you gave me enough information at the very end to know which methods I can use to make use of this most beautiful herb. thought I was going to spend ages looking for another video relevant to Self Heal. My only regret is that we have had the most amazing abundance of this in our lawn this year and I didn’t harvest any be for it was cut by my husband. I’m in Cornwall in the UK and we had a very prolonged wet start to the summer which, from what you say about it liking it a bit wet, is probably why we had so much this year. I also hear that the faeries love this herb and I like to think that’s why it grows in our garden. 😄. Thank you so much for your video. It was so good I’m going to subscribe straight away.

Ooooooooh I met her! I was so tempted to pick it, I had a strong feeling about it, but since I didn't know exactly what to do with her I decided not to aaand there she is, again. Now I know.

Great video

I love this herb and it is extremely plentiful this year! I've harvested a lot to add to tea. I like it with lemon balm, lemon verbena and rose petal. I'm definitely going to make it into salve too now - thank you for sharing how to do that!

16:20 very powerful message! Great information about this hearb, thank you! I found it in my garden, after all grass mowing and landscaping it has survived close to the rose shrubs I have! It is a miracle how something pops up, comes to our attention even before we realise we need it!

Well....just for that...liked, subbed, shared and ....DING!

I live on Saltspring Island, and as I walk around, I rarely see the wonderful herbs that you talk about. It seems in this video, and others that you are able to find large patches of herbs. I have lots of horsetail on my 1/2 acre here, and nettles nearby, cleavers, dandelion, and sorrel, but I never see chickweed, self heal, or purslane. I guess it is to due with the acidity of the soil. I wish I could find great patches of the missing herbs, like you are able to on Vancouver Island. Thank you for your videos. I have loved herbal medicine for 50 years.

Interesting information. FYI: allergy response is not an infection, since it is not caused by Viral or bacterial attack on tissues.

Great information, thank you Sir♥️♥️♥️

Thank you for this. A little herb I had overlooked because it wasn't "minty" enough.

👍👍💕🙂Thank you for sharing your knowledge about this beautiful, plentiful, and helpful little plant.

I picked a bunch this morning. Going to use it in my sunburn body bar.

Awesome insight! Thank you for the very thorough overview.

I love that you made a video about Self Heal!! This is a wonderful ally that I was first introduced to by a family friend who used it to help heal her from Cancer. Thank you for also sharing about the energetic properties. 💜

Wow! You are amazing!

So much information! This is wonderful. Going now to search it out in my backyard 😊

Cool very interesting cool video hello from Honduras

I was called to the forest yesterday and stumbled across this plant, not knowing what it was, took a picture of it to identify, and was curious about the healing properties, then voila, you post a video discussing such! What a beautiful affirmation, Miigwetch (Thank you) for the exact information I was searching for! Amazing video ❤️😊

I was hiking last week in the Oregon Cascades and noticed a lot of these flowers, I had no idea what it was called or how to use it! THANK YOU!!!!

My favorite of all the herbs! I have a nice patch from seed that’s been coming back every year in zone 7b. Thank you for a wonderful description of its benefits, I learned a lot.

Thank you for pointing out that humans shouldn’t be testing on animals. Or exploiting them at all! Going to harvest this from my yard tomorrow! I love sitting amongst it and looking into the tiny beautiful flower faces.

Good talk! This herb grows in abundance on my property, I've always loved the purple blooms, but had no idea what it was untill today.

Love when the universe aligns so beautifully. I have a lot of inflamation / digestive issues, and this sounds like a great herb to start drinking a tea from regularly. This video arrived in my feed just a couple days after I started looking into natural ways to heal my gut. I was actually looking at yoga / pranayama, but this herb sounds like a perfect compliment 🙏❤

Wow am l glad... l'm over the moon that you ! showed me this amazing little powerful herb l have seen it in the woods along the paths just like were you are on this video . l must tell my girl friend about this gift as she has Crohn's . l think this self-heal is just ideal ...just got into herbs since two years ago so still discovering. thanking you. Steve UK :-) just subbed

Fantastic information, thank you. The plant 🌱 is a lot smaller in England.

It also lowers LDL cholesterol, improves heart function and improves your vision!

So much great info! Thank you 🙏🙏🙏

Been collecting this plant for the last couple of days.

Well I planted comfrey seed and this is what grew. Im not that disappointed.

Listening to your stories inspires me so much and makes me feel even closer to Mother Nature. Keep showing us the many wonders of nature! 🌞❤️

Wow that was very cool thanks for your shareing your amazing knowledge in such a luvly way 👍

Hey Yarrow, I have relatives in Squamish. I can wait to get out there and come see you someday!

Another excellent video, sure I've seen self-heal around, such a profound plant, so many uses -- delightful! Self employment herb, I love it...

I just found this in my driveway. 😁 I've always wondered what it was and now I know! I am drying a bunch of it (as I had to mow that section) in my bedroom now, to make a salve in the future. I gave 3 small leaves a nibble- they taste just like grass, haha. Very 'gentle' taste. 😉👍

I work in an herbal shop called Jean’s Greens, and have always been intrigued with this herb, just from the name of it. We don’t carry it in dried herb form, but we do have the Flower Essence. I’m going to start putting it in my water today! I was taking a walk at The Grafton Peace Pagoda the other day, and was delighted to see lots of Self-Heal. It really is a lovely herb, and I appreciated your going into so much detail Love your videos so much Yarrow! Thank you! Peaceful blessings from Upstate NY

I've always loved this little weed. I didn't know you could eat it. Ty♡ yarrow I learn so much from you

Just watching you makes me heal from everything🤗

Wonderful! Thank you Yarrow!

This is amazing thanks for sharing

❤❤❤❤❤❤

EXCELLENT! I was wondering what that plant was... its every where, thank God!

My new favorite herbal medicine. I am using the leaves for tea.

I mowed a patch of this in my yard today. Now that I know what it is, I hope it will grow back quickly, and I'll be looking around to see if there's more somewhere else. Great information. Thanks.

I just planted some. Cant wait to use it.

I went in my backyard and saw a patch sealf heal growing. I got so excited. I also questioned its purpose for showing up. My blood pressure has been fluctuating and I believe it's telling me this is what I need. Gonna give it a try.

Found two small plants tonight after catching this video about a month ago. Thank you for what you do.

It's just starting to go over here in Ireland but I collected plenty a few weeks ago and have made an oxy whatever its called with my own bee's honey and homemade apple cider vinegar, and also a tincture, corona be damed! Your plant grows a bit bigger I noticed...

I just found this herb 🤩 Thanks for sharing your information!

God kis amazing man..he grew theses for us.

you rock!!!!!! Mother lead me here this month. I guess i’m ready to further my knowledge. Thank you 🙏🏽 😊⭐️

I have this all around my yard! This is wonderful news!!! Thank you 💚💚💚

I have a lot of this in Spring. It's gone now. But it is a wonderful plant. Thank you.

Fantastic informative video Prunella vulgaris oil helped me heal dermatitis ... i noticed it suddenly grew in our frontyard and our GP prescribed ointments did not work at all. Gratitude!

Awesome! I'm pretty sure I've munched on some growing wild in the canyon up in Malibu..it was growing everywhere & looked like wild spearmint that grows on the Central Coast of California, but it does not taste like mint.. it's more of a sweet green flavor which gets more bitter as it ages. I'm gonna go harvest this plant after the rains in Springtime! Thank you so much for the extensive info on this valuable medicinal flower!

Excellent video thank you!

So in awe of the Divine intelligence of Mother Nature!! 🙏🌱🌎🙏 thanks for sharing your wisdom, Yarrow ☺️ Namaste 🙏

So much of this stuff growing in my yard
