Another place you can find me.

Another place you can find me.

When I started blogging a few years ago, I quickly found some awesome folks in the Pacific Northwest who have inspired me over and over again.
LearningHerbs.com and HerbMentor.com offer incredible opportunities for herbal study.

Once there, it won't be long until you come across an herbalist named Rosalee.
Rosalee de la Foret writes about her passion @ Methow Valley Herbs.

This link will take you to a page that tells about the services Rosalee offers as a holistic health practitioner.

Here's a bit of info from Methow Valley Herbs that Rosalee's allowed me to share with you.

"Rosalee draws inspiration from Traditional Chinese Medicine and uses tongue and pulse diagnosis and also uses patterns assessment using TCM organ systems. She also has a strong base in western herbalism...

Rooted in the Methow Valley, Rosalee conducts herbalism trainings nationally and regionally, and is the author of dozens of articles and several ebooks on herbal healing. She is an herbal consultant for LearningHerbs.com and frequently contributes multimedia herbal education and moderates the forums at HerbMentor.com.
Rosalee has a private herbal consultation practice and often does long distance consultations for those living across North America.

She is certified by the Institute of Structural Medicine, is a licensed massage therapist in Wanshington and has been privileged to be mentored by herbalists Karta Purkh Singh Khalsa, Michael Tierra, Paul Bergner and Kiva Rose."

Pretty impressive, huh?

Why am I writing about Rosalee today?
It's because I'm so excited! She's decided to pull together a list of herbal blogs that share info from many different perspectives ~ Ayurveda, TCM, traditional Western Herbalism ~ written by professionals in the field and aspiring herbalists...like me!

Thanks for visiting The Journal! I love hearing from you!

What The Woodwife's Journal is all about.

This is a journal about my quest for herbal healing, herbal & wild crafting, soapmaking, whole foods, repurposing and living a self sustaining life. Meant only to share information and personal experience but never as medical advice.

My mission is to encourage you to live closer to nature, share herbal ideas and information.

In His wisdom, God has blessed us with plants that provide a synergy of therapeutic benefits which work together to provide healing and protection to our bodies.

We strive to do all we can to formulate safe recipes for you, but we assume no responsibility for any harm that may result from the use of our products. All of our recipes have been tried and tested by family and friends to produce positive results that I feel comfortable sharing with you and customers request over and over again.

However, it is YOUR responsibility to use them wisely and at your own discretion, discontinuing use AT ONCE should any negative reactions develop and seeking medical help if needed.

While we value your safety, you should know that allergic reaction, skin irritation or other negative responses are always a possibility, both with natural and commercial products. *

These recipes, while safe for use with children in most cases, should be kept out of reach of children and/or pets and always used with adult supervision.

Hopefully anything you read here will encourage you to do your own research and speak with your health care professional to determine the situation before attempting to treat yourself or anyone else by alternative health practices and remedies.

Herbs (including the concentrated essential oils created from them) can be helpful allies in creating and maintaining good health but they can also be powerful medications that should be treated with respect. Used improperly, they can cause adverse reactions or interfere with pharmaceuticals.

Herbally yours,

The Woodwife

*As a side note: sometimes water and/or soap applied to an area of irritation can increase discomfort. Often, a carrier oil or milk will ease the problem.
