Recommended Reading: Rosemary Gladstar's Herbal Recipes for Vibrant Health

This book is a life-changer:

Herbal Recipes for Vibrant Health: 175 Teas, Tonics, Oils, Salves, Tinctures, and Other Natural Remedies for the Entire Family

 I have always felt that we rely too much on chemical preparations, rather than the natural herbal remedies mother nature provides. And that a lot of herbal solutions have been lost in Western cultures (think witch hunts) whereas many Asian cultures know and still use herbal remedies. When I visited rural health facilities in Vietnam for example, they had lovely herb gardens which they explained were part of traditional medical treatments.
 I loved the author, Rosemary Gladstar's, writing style - teaching and encouraging at the same time. I want to try everything that she recommends.
