We were out gathering fresh chamomile blossoms today โ one of the most beloved herbs for calming both the body and spirit!
โจ The best time to harvest is around noon on a dry, sunny day, when the flowers are fully open and fragrant.
๐ฟ Gently pick the flower heads and lay them out in a single layer to dry in a warm, shaded spot โ this helps preserve their oils for tea, salves, or infusions.
But chamomile isnโt just a gentle tea herb or essential oil โ it shines in homeopathic form too! ๐ผ
Chamomilla 6C, 30C or 200C is a lifesaver for babies, kids, teens, and even adults who are dealing with pain, crankiness, or emotional overload.
๐ข Perfect for:๐ถ Teething (especially when they want to be held but still cry)๐ซ Irritability and meltdowns (think toddlers to teens)๐ตโ๐ซ Earaches, colic, or digestive upset from emotions๐ด Restlessness or trouble sleeping due to discomfort
Think Chamomilla when theyโre "impossible to please" โ it helps restore peace and comfort like a warm hug from nature. ๐๐
