My husband and I got Covid in early 2020 before the hospitals were able to diagnose or admit it was here. I got a mild case, husband got terribly terribly sick. Hospital sent him home, saying he has pleurisy and probably a pulmonary embolism the first time round because they didn't think to check for covid at that time (February 2020), but when he was worse a few weeks later, in March, they begged him not to come in unless he was totally unable to breathe because they couldn't isolate him or treat him yet. I cried my eyeballs out but then started treating him with thyme steam (thyme in a bowl of boiling water with towel over his head), which I'd used as a kid myself for my terrible asthma... husband immediately improved and healed. He started steaming 3 times or so a day. He seems to have no lasting effect from the covid, thankfully. I also used it for my kids when they had bronchitis growing up. It is AMAZING!!! My husband swore it saved his life, and he's not into natural medicine for the most part. Thank you to this blessed plant.
We also grow it all throughout our yard, and honeybees and butterflies LOVE it!
@@MC-vw9euhave you ever seen thyme get invaded by a green colored fly? My plant does and it’s horrible. I didn’t harvest mine this season because of them. I used neem oil but it didn’t phase the fly. Any ideas?
In my mother tongue, thyme is called "mother's soul" because of its soothing, supportive and all round healing energy. 💚
💖 At last, found wise respectful people who talk of herbs the way I love 🙏🏽
Just woke up and this made my day ,67 year old herbalist
I loved the part where you guys spoke of the psychological benefits of Thyme. I heard a story of a man who had PTSD from war, and a Curandera cured him by rubbing rosemary and thyme on his body while praying that his spirit returns to his body. Amazing what herbs can do!
We do have thyme in Mexico and we use it a lot for soups and tea. It is called tomillo and I buy it all the time. My kitchen cannot be without it.
...have you thought about- "propagating thyme" from your "store bought" thyme yet?!?!
It's REALLY, really easy & simple.
Just stick'em in some water for a week or so [put a smidge of 'cinnamon', on the tip- to prevent 'root rot' among other things] ..and then, just pop'em into a pot/cup!
I have a "herbs & kisses" pot, in my windowsill that has Dill, Thyme, Oregano & Basil [Opal] growing in my windowsill pot!
I can only think it was just a problem in miscommunication...
I also lived in Mexico
(probably bc of the internet translaters I knew to ask for tomillo)
thyme was in my garden after a dear little girl sold me plants at the tiangy
Your dad and you are adorable! Any siblings who grew up to become investment bankers? 🤪 It is truly delightful to watch son align with father in value systems and occupations.
1 tsp thyme, 1/2 tsp ground ginger, in a cup of hot water with honey. Stopped my cough immediately. I had been coughing for 3 months off and on. Sheer magic.
Yes, it’s remarkable to me that people put up with lingering coughs when simple remedies are available. Cough cough coughid
Can this be given to dogs? Safely?
@@ilovetomcaldwell Debi for dogs we traditionally in Ayurveda use Ginger root, Sri-Rama-Tulsi (leaf powder of Holy Basil green / green Ocimum tenuiflorum) and very tiny amount of honey as cough medicine and it is safe and works great. Thyme is largely safe too but affects Dogs nerves a bit, and lowers heart rate quite a bit.. so not preferred for Dogs. the dosage to give you an idea - would be 10 ml honey, 200 mg tulsi and 350 mg ginger root powder for a medium 40 lb dog. you will have to adjust based on weight and age. But please do not cross 800mg of ginger root and 600mg of tulsi per day. and this should be given for a week as a standard schedule for normal cough and wheeze in dogs. .
cheers and hope this helps. ~!
Do you think it would work without the honey for vegans?
@@cathybrady2822 oh yes~! a good alternative would be to give it with half table spoon of orange juice OR quarter table spoon of lime juice mixed with 1 tea spoon of he,p seeds (dehusked, no kernels). as a replacement to honey. If I am not using Honey then I usually take 4 table spoon of water, mix quarter table spoon of lime juice, and Tusli and ginger root powders, and add a few hemp seeds to this solution, and give it in a bowl- that way they will drink/lick the liquid right out in their pursuit of eating hemp seeds and works great as well. cheers.
I have had a saying I use, for nearly 42 years now. I use Thyme faithfully in about everything I cook. My phrase I still say to this day is; "I put a little thyme into everything I cook". And I do... the smell, the taste, the benefits - can't go wrong. Funny I run into this video tonight. Nice one, thanks!
Congratulations your Father looks like a garden gnome! He's living the part well as a herbalist. Two brilliant herbalists living a wholesome life. Great to see.
I use it in potatoes, for breakfast. Really almost anything. It smells and tastes so good.
Yummy 🤤
I like drinking thyme before bed. I wake up feeling really good. My asthma and bronchitis is gone. I can go for a walk and breathe. God gave me the wisdom of this herb and I am very greatful
This is the best thing I've seen all day, and it has not even begun🌱💜
Coincidentally, I made Thyme tea with lemon, ginger and cinnamon this morning. When I looked at my UA-cam feed, your video was on there. Also, they give thymol to chickens on factory farms instead of antibiotics. Also, last October, I had a "bad respiratory bug". I prepared the thyme, lemon, ginger, honey and cinnamon tea and drank it. I believe it cured the very bad bug.
Beautiful video!
Powerhouse little herb. Antifungal, antiseptic, antiviral, antibacterial, antispasmodic, anti-inflammatory.
Did you know that if you add thyme oil to vinaigrette or other dressings it can kill bacteria on salad leaves rendering them safe to eat? Something to keep in mind with the constant recalls on spinach and romaine.
@Taiwo Omotosho oils are easy.
Start with a small pot and cold (room temp) oil. Add herbs, put on stove at a slow simmer, DO NOT COVER, DO NOT BOIL, ignore until herbs are slightly browned, allow to cool, strain, bottle.
Never leave herbs in oil, they will mold, even garlic.
Crumble herbs and add to breads, salad toppings, dressings, etc.
I love so much to listen to all the stories you share about each plants. Great video with your dad! You two are a fab herbal duo! Make more....please!! 🙏🏼🌞
I'm fortunate to have an abundance of varieties of thyme in my herb garden. Thyme and rosemary are our favorites.
🎶Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme🎶 Poultry seasoning.
My absolute favorite! And One of the best teas around…a bit of lemon and a touch of Honey & I’m good to go…it goes in everything I cook…always something missing if I leave it out….That is aside from Rosemary and Sage and Yarrow and Lavender and Mullein and ……and….and…..and….well you get the idea 😀 I keep some in my bag just to be able to smell it whenever I need a boost or ground myself. No herb excites me more
Wait what, what?? “U never find thyme in mexico?? Yes we do have it in Mexico!! it is used a lot in Mexican cuisine, specially in central Mexico! We do not use it in every dish but yes we have it. Next time you go Mexico, don’t go to a commercial nursery, go to the open markets, we call them “tianguis”. You will find ladies from villages selling their small organic plants. It’s beautiful!!
I must say this video production was a documentary film class !!
Loved the presentation.
I keep (alot of) thyme in my home
whoever told me it can stop a toothache
GOD Bless them!
Never ever let me down - mere seconds from suffering to
r e l i e f !
The dry herb from the supermarket is what works fastest (for me)
I did try thyme oil.... nah.
idk why, but that is my experience
Thank you for your videos
♡
Wow never heard this, usually use Clove. THANK YOU for sharing - trying next ..thyme 😁
That’s it. I’m brewing up a tea.
I love your videos. I'm transforming my garden into a medicine chest. Thank you. 🙏
I drink alot of thyme tea mixed w vegetable juice.
AND OREGANO tea. (Cold!)❤
These herbs are powerful medicine!
Right on Thyme ❤️
In Mexico they use “Mexican thyme” aka Cuban oregano aka Spanish thyme, succulent plant with similar properties. I grow it outside in summer (zone 5 So VT) and inside the rest of the year. It’s a great plant, very hardy as a ground cover just like Thymus vulgaris. Coleus Amboinicus L. or Plectranthus amboinicus
Good to know, I'm on the coast of Maine and always look for herbs and plants I can grow indoors after our relatively short growing season and for hardy plants that will come back after winter outside. I'm wondering if "Mexican Thyme" can survive the winter since other thyme plants I have are fine, have you tried overwintering it?
@@jenniferw1570 definitely will not survive outside. First frost will kill it. Bring it inside, overwinter and back out again. It’s a southern plant, Cuban/Mexican thyme. You can break off a piece and just stick it in soil, very unfussy that way but a zone 10 or 11 plant. Another hardy herb that can be grown outside in the summer from just a broken piece is African basil. Beautiful green purple leaves, lovely flowers, gets large in full sun.
I have this growing in pots and in various places around my yard - the Cuban oregano - but also have regular excellent thyme now too :) It survives Florida frost fine and I rarely ahve to cover it even during our brief freezes - but it so easy to spread - cut a branch and stick it in the ground and new plant!! Love it - smells like pizza!! LOL
@@rebeccahenkins1697 yes exactly. In my zone 5 southern Vermont garden I plant it all over as a ground cover and in the fall as the freezes come then subside for a few more weeks of growing time, I watch the weather and cover the clumps of Cuban oregano so it can survive for a few more weeks. Really hardy as far as its versatility goes - no need to harden off when moving in or out. A protected patch can survive a light frost but a hard frost will kill it, guaranteed. But take a sprig to root in soil and you’re continuing the life of the plant. My original sprig came from a rooftop garden in Brooklyn, NYC, in 2010 or so. I have it indoor plants all over, have shared it with others. Only thing I don’t do enough of is eat it! The Cubans and Mexicans rely on it for colds and such. I also have Thymus vulgaris regular and variegated patches that return strong every year. I need to get another lemon thyme. I also have a mother thyme that is a low to the ground creeper that has survived harsh treatment
Good to see your dad.
Great video , I definitely need to cultivate more Thyme in my garden .
Please could you make a video on Oregano .
Growing Oregano: wait til the little green buds are formed, then pick & dry BUT not when they’ve burst into flowers. Dry those buds by hanging them upside down from the garage ceiling etc, any airy, dry spot. These buds are SO MUCH MORE flavoursome than the picked fresh leaves, which impart little flavour.😉
@@floralcouture3763 WOW ! The Oregano plant in my garden is flowering , the Bees & Hover Flies love the flowers . Should I wait till the flowers have turned into buds then pick , hang upside down in a warm dry room ? Thankyou for your interesting reply . Have a good week .........
Just discovering your channel. Really like your energy. Enjoyed this episode alot. Thanks!
I received some true Mediterranean Thyme from my sister, whose neighbor had brought the seeds straight from Italy. I readily re-seeds in my little raised herb garden each year in my central Alberta zone 2/3. I love to chew on the leaves for symptoms of a cold. I dry it for cooking & always add it to my chicken broth while it’s simmering. My sister calls it Oregano but I believe it has many of the same herbal qualities.
I always add it to beef stews and casseroles here in the uk. It takes it to a whole new level adding thyme and rosemary. 😋
Me and my grandparents had an inside joke with thyme: "A little thyme goes a long way." we always though it sounded like a song lyric :)
I've been using 1/4 tsp of organic Thyme twice per day for depression and anxiety. I can't say enough about how much it has helped me!
I’m glad I took this Time to consider Thyme. It’s about time for a few more puns about thyme!
Thyme is of the essence
@@stanlindert6332 Right on Thyme! 🤙🏼
@@brodiwheeler7583 Thyme is on my side...yes it is.
@@stanlindert6332 This is OUR Thyme!
@@brodiwheeler7583 Thyme for a cool change
Yum! My favorite.
Ohmygoodness! You both are so cute together. Great video. Stumbled upon this and now I realize that I actually need Thyme in my life. Thank you for all that you do. Love all of your videos. They have been so helpful in my herbal journey as an "herbal sprout" as you call it.
I cook my lamb with thyme and red wine and it’s so amazing to my taste buds. Even if I don’t add wine I Have to add Thyme to my Lamb it’s a yummy combination
Your video really helped me out. The handsome gentleman is very wise and kind : ) I have used thyme for many different remedies and recipes.
I'm feeling very sad and lonely, your videos raise me up during this difficult times.🙏
Thank you.
I have two types of thyme in my garden, common and lemon thyme. The lemon thyme grows well here in Brisbane.
