💚 How did I become an herbalist anyways? What the heck am I doing here?

🌿 Herb world only knows me as the sober herbalist. Here's a bit more about that, and about me beyond the moniker.

🎯 My friend did a post like this and I love it. Maybe everyone has one already--I don't --so I thought it would be fun to put one together. by @soberherbalist

🍎 Fermentation

🍎 Zero waste

🍎 DIY

You don’t need a big farm or a big crock to make an awesome vinegar- you just need some sugary fruit like these plums or a handful of berries and you can make yourself a little vinegar a.k.a. mini Vinny!

Medicinal bone broth was the first herbal medicine I learned to make when I was healing from chronic Lyme disease and CFS back in 2010.

I believe being comfortable in a kitchen helps me as an herbal medicine maker, and that making a lot of water preparations, like this broth, helps my understanding of how to work with herbs for healing and vitality. by @soberherbalist

🌹 The power of sober curious is Herbalism’s big love for powders, electuaries, gummies, syrups and elixirs…. Herbal medicine without any alcohol involved. Big sellers, big names, big love!

I've been in the game almost a decade and it was crickets until after the pandemic, sober curious, and now-- sober everything!

I was recently blasted with ads for a global virtual herb conference, and I looked at the lineup and saw: "SYRUPS!" there's only one explanation...

🌿 Alcohol-free herbalism achieves high potency and flavor by using the weight to volume method as the entry point into the preparations with herbs.

🌿 If you folk a glycerite extract, it’s likely you’re using half as much herb and twice as much glycerine and water. I’m not anti-folk! It’s just that people need to learn how to make an extract clinical grade. If you’re just crafting for flavor then you can do whatever, but following a ratio will get clinical grade outcomes. This is just my experience.

🌿 Just like a chef, we look for the best ingredients and menstrua to start, then follow a very observant process through till press-out. Even then, the medicine is still talking and telling me what's next.

🦋 Finally there is a private place to congregate and generate alcohol free herbalism!

🎯 Link in my bio to join.

🐟🐠 We’re already moving together and a think tank is building.

🌿 When the freebie content starts up, I’ll get more aggressive about marketing, but for now it’s been organic.

🌹 My sober herbalism/alcohol free ritual are fabulous and simple!

🌹 TEA BAR is herbs in cool jars on a rad tray with some filters and a cute wooden spoon. Give it a place by the kettle. Pick 5-6 herbs that are your heavy rotation herbs (like your favorite LP’s) lol.

🌹 Go to your tea bar and blend a tea whenever you feel like it. It’s helpful if you’re like me and need little transitional rituals to move through your day.

🌹I bet you could name 5 herbs you would put on a tray and enjoy throughout the day! by @soberherbalist
