How To Stay Healthy For The Rest Of Winter

 Howdy friends. Do y'all remember when the ground hog saw his shadow and we get 6 more weeks of winter? Well, that could mean 6 more weeks of sickness too. 

I chose not to get the flu shot this year and so far so good. I wanted to try some thing different this year. I wanted to try a regimen this year of using my Goldenrod tincture that I made for me and my mother. (Don't worry, I will be doing a full written tutorial before long). Back in the fall, I gathered some Goldenrod and harvested, dried and preserved it 3 different ways. If you are curious and want to know all about it you can watch 2 videos that I made just for this Growing and Preserving Goldenrod series. I needed to make sure everything turned out OK and expiermented with it first before I do a written tutorial. 

You can watch the videos here on my 4D Farms Natural Remedy and Apothecary Playlist on our YouTube channel.  

This is how my mother and I take the tincture. I will take two dropper fulls in a little bit of orange juice. 🍊 

I also made a topical oil that is suppose to work well for so many things. I'm using it for inflammation for my rheumatoid arthritis especially on my feet. Excuse my feet but I needed you to see. I rub on my feet and massage in then put on my socks and shoes. It does not stain your socks. 

I also made this topical oil for my boys because they can get within 6 ft of poison oak, ivy or sumac and break out. They don't even have to touch it. They get it so bad sometimes. Goldenrod is great for things like this, also exema and psoriasis. 

There are so many more benefits to Goldenrod and I explain all these in the videos. I will work on a written tutorial too for you if you'd like. 

Remember to stay healthy, and take care of yourself the rest of the season. Stay warm. Spring is almost here but I've also known it to snow as late as April in our area before. 

Eat foods high in vitamins and minerals, get plenty of sleep, take some vitamins, drink fluids, drink or eat plenty of soups that have warm chicken, vegetable or bone broth in them. Bone broth is extremely nutritious.  Eat lots of fruits and veggies. Especially fruits. 

We are predicted a few more cold fronts, so please stay warm and cozy too. 😊
