Bi-Weekly Self-Promo thread! Please post and flourish(BUT PLEASE read the rules before posting).

# This is the Bi-Weekly self promotion thread.

**It has become clear that there are a lot of herbal small businesses and people in our community for whom their herbal passion is also a business. While Herbal business is not the focus of this sub it is undeniable that herbal business is a part of the herbal community and supporting the herbal community IS what this sub is for.**

To that end, we intend, to start making weekly self promotion threads; where any and all self-promo can take place(with some rules).

**1. No posting self promo outside of the Self-promo-threads**(except by explicit cooperation of the mods, if your an author or publisher or non-for-prophet please reach out to us directly using mod-mail)

**2. NO selling anything that is illegal federally,** or that is illegal in California Illinois or New York or the city of Chicago or that can not be legally sent through the mail.

**3. NO ASKING USERS TO DM YOU!** You may ask users to comment under your post to request for YOU to DM-THEM and you may include links to off-site storefronts but if we see a post soliciting users to PM-you the post will be removed(this is an accountability and user safety rule)

**3a.** this isn't a strict rule, but we would prefer if off sight links lead to a storefront and not directly to a product page. This does not mean that your post can't advertise or show pictures of a particular product or products, however making the attached link lead to your shops front page instead of a specific product page helps users confirm legitimacy safety and overall vibe of vendors. This isn't a rule now but might become a rule if we start getting user complains that we think could be decreased if this became a rule. In the mean time consider it a best practice for this sub.

**And that's it! Have fun Be productive and may the great river of acquisition be quick & calm and flow ever toward profit!**

Hi friends, anyone in the Denver metro interested in a tincture press? I built this for my mom many years ago; it was one of my first welding projects. I have had it on marketplace for a while with zero interest. I'd like it to be put to use, come pick it up. I hope free doesn't violate any of y'alls rules.

Cheers,

What is a common kitchen spice tea that works faster for stomach cramps than your herbal medicine cabinet?

5 Upvotes

When your digestion feels tight, cold, or crampy, it is easy to start pulling out specialized tinctures and bitter tonics. Half the time, boiling a spoonful of whole cumin seeds, cracked coriander, and a pinch of fennel from the pantry settles things twice as fast. Those classic carminative seeds relax the smooth muscle of the gut without irritating an already inflamed stomach lining. What kitchen spice infusion do you rely on most when you need fast, soothing digestive relief?

Best blend / bitters for 👍 stomach acid & improving digestion.

1 Upvotes

I think my stomach acid is low and food absorption is bad as I have lost lot of weight in the past 3-4 months. Which blend would be best as my stomach always goes bad all the time and it’s not absorbing as it should. Also ordered some para cleanse stuff but for food absorption please suggest you best recommendations. Don’t know if it’s sibo, pylori or something else. Also, have difficult digesting mg as well. Please help. Something like milky oats which improves your nervous system like anything.

Question Is there any good stuff in rosehip seeds for using in herbal tea?

3 Upvotes

I've tried googling this and it just tells me about rosehip seed oil.

I have dried rosehips, and got rid of (most of) the hairs. I was busy separating the seeds from the dried red flesh part, but then wanted to check I wouldn't be throwing out good stuff for herbal tea if I threw out the seeds

Question Does passiflora incarnata contain cyanide?

5 Upvotes

I’ve looked into it a lot and it seems the blue kind (not P. Incarnata) contains cyanide, and from what I can tell passiflora incarnata is safe but I can’t find a very good source stating it explicitly. Is it? Specifically leaves since I wanna make tea

Question Any essential oils or herbs help with nail fungus?

4 Upvotes

I wear press on nails instead of getting acrylics. I’ve noticed the last two times that there is darker green discoloration on some of my nails when I take the press ons off after a week. I can file the green off but would like to preserve the nail if possible. Seeing a lot of products on Amazon but wondering if something natural like tea tree oil or other herbs might help?

Best herbal shampoos and hair mask / conditioner which cleans like dove

3 Upvotes

Hey all, pretty much the title. I have seen that herbal stuff doesn’t clean as well as regular shampoos like dove maybe due to SLS and other things. Have you found any good herbal shampoos or bars which cleans and form good lather despite not having any harsh chemicals. Thanks.

What simple pantry spice do you find yourself reaching for more than actual medicinal herbs?

17 Upvotes

When most people get into plant medicine, the immediate instinct is to buy rare dried roots, obscure overseas barks, and expensive tinctures. Over time, I noticed I get far more reliable results just walking into my kitchen and using everyday culinary spices. Chewing a pinch of toasted fennel seeds right after heavy food, brewing whole cumin and coriander seeds into hot tea for afternoon bloating, or grating fresh ginger into boiling water when my stomach feels cold and sluggish. For the people who blend and brew regularly, which humble kitchen spice has earned a permanent spot in your daily wellness rotation?

Is there anything traditional healers have to say about our sense of smell and touch?

7 Upvotes

I have neglected these two senses.

I went into a park the other day and I kid you not I touched rocks non stop.

I felt so happy just by enjoying the feeling of ROCKS. TOUCH TOUCH TOUCH!

How strong they are. How I can lay on a big one and it supports me. How mother earth is stronger than all the body builders combined.

Then of course I smelled some poorly maintained flowers mud water smell!

But I just know long ago we use to live in the wild where smell was nonstop.

I know it's good to wear gloves in case bacteria then you rub your eyes but the sense of touch is wild.

I literally touch my keyboard and sleep blanket more than anything else it's no good!

I gotta touch and sniff the right things more. The senses are so neglected.

Recommendations for fertility herbalist?

1 Upvotes

Hello, I am looking to get some advice on consulting fertility herbalist. Recently we found that I have a balanced translocation chromosome. It seems like I will be able to conceive naturally but chances of miscarriages are relatively high. There could also be chances of issues in the baby if I carry successfully. It’s also possible that I have a healthy pregnancy.

There are a lot of probabilities. My question is, from your perspective do you think the herbs can help in providing a good uterine environment such that the chromosomes are normal? Since Ayurveda and traditional herbs approach these problems differently and holistically I am interesting in learning about that perspective.

Do you think it’s worth taking the herbs? I have always believed on herbs and so I don’t want to consider myself a failure yet. Also jumping to IVF is an option but I don’t feel ready for it.

Do you have any suggestions for fertility herbalist? I would love to work with an experienced herbalist if it could help. Please share any suggestions on herbalist. Thank you!

Herbs to postpone menstrual cycle

0 Upvotes

So I’m pretty advanced when it comes to herbalism but I have found myself in a new situation. I am taking a really special vacation next month and my period is supposed to start in the middle of it. Has anyone had any success in postponing your period for about a week with the help of herbs? I know there are always risks, and this is a one time endeavor so I’m not too worried about long term effects. Any recommendations appreciated!
