These Wellness Kits are a collection of my top remedies to combat disease. Learn more:
1. Jackass Bitters Tincture
Jackass Bitters is a staple because it's such a strong anti-viral. It's bitter taste can be intense for some, but it is a traditional Maya remedy that has helped many people. You can learn more about Jackass Bitters here. It's not safe for pregnant and nursing women, both of which I happen to be in the phase of for years now, so I had to find other options.
2. Silver Hydrosol
Hence, Silver Hydrosol. I used Colloidal Silver occasionally for severe illness and sinus infections. I emphasize the word occasionally because it may leave trace elements of silver, which is a heavy metal, in the body. I didn't want this, and I certainly don't recommend it for pregnant or nursing mamas or children. Silver Hydrosol is a much safer option because it is far less concentrated. The easiest way for me to talk about what a hydrosol is like this: Think of Rose Water vs. essential oil of Rose. So this is Silver Hydrosol vs. Colloidal Silver. You can learn more about hydrosols here.
3. Activated Charcoal
Traditional used as an poison remedy, even hospitals turn to activated charcoal. This is my go-to for things like stomach bugs or if anything sketchy was consumed. It's another one that has to be in your medicine closet because you never know when you will need it. It's also useful topically for bites and stings. Lean more about activated charcoal here. If you want to buy it separately from the kit, here is the link for the 3 oz. tin of Activated Charcoal.
4. Immune Teas
These are the most gentle approach to wellness. They are best for all ages. A cup of tea is soothing in so many ways. The Children's ImmuniTea has a base of chamomile because the best thing you can do for little ones when they are sick is to help them rest and let their bodies fight it off (adults, too). As an herbalist, I use teas for different conditions. I'm mindful of what a nursing mama needs, a pregnant mama, and the babies. You can learn more about the various Immune Boosting Teas here.
5. Herbal Salve
If you aren't familiar with herbal salve, it's like a natural Neosporin. The blend I make has 8 herbal oils. I don't mess around with different salves for different issues like cuts, diaper rash, eczema...I just make one salve that's good for just about everything. There is Jackass Bitters to kill parasites and viruses if you get a cut. Arnica is in there to reduce swelling from bruises. The classics like comfrey, calendula, and plantain are all there. Respectively the herbs heal bones and skin, soothe irritation, and stop bleeding. I add echinacea for the anti-bacterial effect. Finally there is chamomile and St. John's Wort because they are perfect for gentle healing. If you go through a major flu or stomach bug, something will need salve, whether it's a bum or a chapped nose. Learn more about Hibiscus Healing Herbal Salve here.
6. Lavender Essential Oil
Lavender is the only essential oil that I use on little ones under 2. When they are young I'm very careful with essential oils. I still use it in a carrier oil or diffuser for them. It's a superb anti-bacterial that I use frequently. If you want it without the kit, you can get it here. I also love to put it into a mister bottle to spray on their sheets, over their heads while we are driving, and in the air as needed. You can find the Lavender Mist here.
7. Thieves Essential Oil
Additionally, Thieves Blend is a stronger essential oil. It's wonderful for adults, I use it cautiously with children. I tend to only put it on the bottoms of their feet with a carrier oil and immediately put socks over it. You can check it out here. I really love it in a mister bottle! I spray it while I clean, on toys, when we travel, or after anyone comes in my house! Check out the Thieves Mister here.
