Herbal Infusions

Herbal infusionsare very easy to make and so good for us.I have always been interested in herbs to improve my health and well being.

My resources for herbal information have been from articles I’ve read, my friends andSusun Weed, a world renouned herbalist. Our Saugerties, NY house happens to be down the road from Susun where we pass her and her goats grazing in the field.

Last year when I read about Susun Weed’sherbal infusions Igot very excited. I discoverd how simple they are to make. I believe we have to be ready to make changes in our lives and incorporate new positive things. Well, I was ready and tired of feeling run down as the result of lots of challenges in my life which includeda huge move from New York back to Seattle..

Susun Weed explains in her bookthat drinking herbal teas does not provide enough nourishment for our bodies simply because of the small amount of herbs in tea.Herbal infusionsare different. You use large amounts of an herb brewed for several hours which provides lots of nourishment per cup.

Making Herbal Infusions

Making herbal infusionsbegins with using one herb at a time. So far my favorite one is thenettle leaf infusionbecause it provides me with nice, steady energy throughout the day due to the chlorophyll in it. You need 1 cup (1 ounce) of dried nettle leaf, a 1 quart glass jar with a metal lid, 1 quart of boiling water, a strainer and a wooden spoon.

Making herbal infusionsbegins with placing the 1 cup of dried herb in a quart jar which is then filled to the top with boiling water. Using the wooden spoon tap the herbs floating on top down into the water, adding more boiling water to the top of the brim. Screw the lid on tightly and let it brew for 4 hours. Sometimes I make myherbal infusionsbefore going to bed and let it steep overnight.

The next step inmaking herbal infusionsis to strain it well. The mushy herbs I place in the yard waste bucket. Then I rinse the glass jar and pour the liquidherbal infusionback in the jar after pouring myself a cup to drink.

Don’t Mix the Herbs

The rest I chill in the refrigerator to be consumed within 36 hours. Drinking 2-4 cups ofherbal infusiona day is recommended by Susun Weed. I alternatenettle leaf infusionwith comfrey and oat strawthroughout the week, one herb at a time, each herb providing different types of nourishment for my body.

Slowly I am letting go of taking supplements and allowing theherbal infusionsto give my body all the healing properties these herbs contain. Using herbs for personal well being is an act of self love and a powerful way to honor my body as well as Goddess Gaia.
