can I ask what kind of slatted pad you have on top of the foundation?
Is cat leaf a catnip? Thank you.

I had pretty bad osteoarthritis. I started taking turmeric w/black pepper, quit eating sugar, and quit processed foods, walked more miles in my day, lost 10 lb and now my arthritis is completely gone. No pains!❤.
Thank you. As a retired person, I just wanted to thank you for sharing your knowledge of herbs, gardening, and bees. I am a beekeeper and gardener. My wife raises chickens, and rabbits. She is also a gardener.
Ii. Am starting to learn and study about herbs to get away from pharmaceutical drugs. Please continue to make more videos on herbs and their uses.
We have 3.5 acres in Georgia.
I had the same experience. I live in Devon , England.il used to be full of pain. I bought an all wool mattress. Just lovely.xxxx
I bought some chocolate mint several years ago and fell in love with it, don't know what the uses for it is but it tastes just like a peppermint patty when you make a tea out of it
Add a little rose, cinnamon, cocoa nibs and oh my!!! Delicious!
sounds great I'll have to try that@@TheHoneystead
@@robertstricker9154this sounds so good
I just love chocolate mint and it grows heavily in my garden! I use it in any recipes that call for mint. I find that people who shy away from mints because they think it's too strong really like the chocolate mint. About to can up a chocolate mint jelly today. 👍
I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, Lord, only makest me dwell in safety. Psalm 4:8 KJV
I ordered the encyclopedia of herbal medicine and the petersons field guide. So excited waiting for them. I also have been drinking Lemon balm and ordered alot of teas from Mountain Rose Herbs. Cant wait til Spring to grow my own. Thanks for all your videos.
This is exciting!!!
I ordered a lemon balm tincture. Instead of working my way up and knowing how much I needed, I started with 2 dropper fulls. I slept really good but felt like I had a hangover the whole next day. Gotta be careful with these herbs! 😅
I am watching now. I am learning so much.
I feel The Lord called me to be a Christian Herbalist. I am so excited about it. Goldenrod is my current adventure
I sent you all an email a few days ago. Do y'all respond on certain days?
I love the taste of rose so much, I add some rose water (about 1 teaspoon) to my water all summer, everyday.
🌹
Oooooooh that sounds nice. I am just learning about rose water. Made my own. It's exciting. I feel called to be an herbalist
@@Renewed85 go for it!
This tea blend is almost identical to my own Nightea Night blend that I sell, except I don’t put in Valerian or Spearmint, as I’m one of those weird people that finds valerian doesn’t make me sleepy 😄 so I add passionflower instead as that helps to reduce the thoughts that race around your head. I hadn’t really thought about putting in spearmint but it makes sense 😊 Kate x
Passionflower is lovely!!!
Why would the recipe you SELL need to be only what works for you? 🤔
I have read about Valerian giving you an opposite effect especially when used over time without a break. Skullcap affects me the same way.
I wish I had known about Birch mattresses before we bought a new mattress. I have actually bought two new mattresses trying to get a good nights sleep. Now I am sleeping in a recliner in the living room because I can’t sleep on my new mattress. Both had 100 night sleep trials, all the way up to the last night I was on the fence about them. I should have sent them back, but didn’t.
I’m thankful that you found a good mattress that you can rest on.
Blessings
Nighttime Herbal and Birch Living Mattress...nic match up Kaylee...
I love that you hide the icky with something! It makes me happy that I am not the only one. Although my flavor to hide that stuff in is peppermint
Wonderful advice and I am going to be looking into a new mattress! Thank you so much for sharing once again, your knowledge! Blessings~🕊
I'm loving your videos ❤️
Thanks for sharing ❤
When I have back pain fever few and thyme with roses is my go to tea with honey. 😊
That’s awesome!!!
Thank you
That IS Beautiful
I love watching your channel. I have learned so much from you and your momma. I have been growing and making my own tea for many years. One thing I do after I have blended my tea I run it very quickly through my Nutribullet with the grinding blade. That way all the smaller herbs don't fall to the bottom and it gives more surface for extraction. I learned this technique from an herbalist and been doing it ever since. Thank you for teaching me. Have a blessed day 🙏😍
Ditch the coffee for chicory and learn how to harvest, roast and brew it. Quite yummy. Heart healthy, too.
Oh yes!! It is super yummy!
Thank you! I'd just bought a sleep tea and it contains both valerian and chamomile. Looking forward to it, but am glad to know this recipe for the future when I can afford to purchase all the ingredients separately and make it!
You’d be surprised at how much you would save in the long run 💛
I love teas but the tincture idea sounds great. Do you have videos for these items as tinctures/blends? I am one who is up through the night gone to the bathroom and I never thought about a tincture to help me sleep. Thanks for sharing
Ohh I do!!! I have many videos that offer information on how to set it up and you can easily keep them separate or combine them after they are ready 💛
I am 66 and have bad hips, Fibromyalgia. this be great, they can send me one to try so can give reviews
Great video today! I tried to go to sleep with chamomile alone, but it wasn't enough. However, valerian root is the bomb, especially in combination with chamomile. I make a cup and let it steep while I get a shower and all that. Then I sit up in bed and sip while I read. When I start waking up with my chin on my chest, it's time to lay down! I would go one more step with your phone. I have done this: my phone gets shut down and goes downstairs. And if I didn't have a far enough away place to do that, I would shut it down and stick it in a Faraday bag. No kidding. Our devices emit EMFs that are harmful for our bodies. Same with wifi. We are bombarded all day, every day with this stuff. We need a break at night.
We don't sleep with our phones in our room.
When we did, we would be on it.
For myself, there have been a couple of times I fell asleep with my phone by me, accidentally. I woke up with a headache
Second time watching. You are a breath of fresh air. Sending love
You are beautiful.
I got a sleep tea recipe and got all the ingredients except the Valerian and Linden. They weren't available where I shopped. Need to order from Mountain Herbs. I think I really need the Valerian. I am a horrible sleeper. Always have been. Mom gave me valerian as a child to help me sleep. I smoke a little pot before bed and it helps me get to sleep. I just don't stay asleep. I would like to find a better way to get to sleep. I need heavy duty. Chamomile is great but doesn't make me sleep. I think I need to add oats and skullcap. My mind won't shut off.
Where do you order your herbs from that you don’t harvest at your place?
I got this mattress and I’ve never slept better💚
I agree 100%! I haven’t even had a headache since we started sleeping on it!
@@TheHoneystead it’s so empowering when you realize those pains are not normal and also a reminder to have better self care practice and surroundings are important. one step forward to a more healthy blessed home.
Thank you for your videos. They are always inspiring and insightful. Specially at a time in my life I’m feeling I don’t have alot of control of my health and choosing not to live in fear. I feel so deeply the love you have for what you share so thank you for beeing you😎
❤my Birch mattress!!!!
I feel sooo much better too!!
Where do you get the metal tins that you use for salve making?
Thanks for sharing. Chamomile is one of my favorite teas, but my mom can't drink it. She takes blood pressure medicine and it conflicts with it. Instead of calming, it causes her heart to not beat correctly. Just thought I would put that out there. As always, as you say, do your research.
Beautiful tea blend !! Where is a good source for the Oat Tops? Thanks for sharing ❤️
I like Frontier www.frontiercoop.com
Hey Lady do you grind this mix finer? Love your videos watching the swarm catch playlist videos again!
Can you tell us how much of the blend per cup of tea? Thanks, love your videos 😊
What book do you recommend that really dives into herbal actions and associated herbs? Love this channel - so inspiring ❤
I love my Medicinal Herbalism book by David Hoffman. I have a whole bunch of them on my Amazon store to look through as well 💛
We are in the shopping stage, I'm thinking this would be great
Just like you, the only reason I drink coffee is because I love adding my mushroom powder to it (as well as turmeric, ceylon cinnamon, and ghee). Now I feel I can't do without it. Lol good thing there are good tasting decafs for the caffeine sensitive out there (guilty!).
cutting off from the phone at bedtime is difficult. Usually what happens for me is if my brain isn't engaged with a video... it is engaging itself and getting wound up (ADHD). I, too, noticed that some of my video choices were "activating" me. I'm currently "stepping down" so to speak... it's not completely cutting off the phone, but I'm being very intentional about what I am doing on it. The light is dimmed/no blue light. and I play boring games that tend to make me sleepy when I play them too long. One of them is a "coloring" app and I often select the mandalas because they are repetitive and circular.
Such a great video. I had never near about Cat Leaf before but will definitely check it out! This is a really random question but when I think about being out in the garden or forest - in your neck of the woods - I can't help but think of lyme disease. Is that overblown or is that a real concern over where you are?
Respect to the lady, Smoooke weed or take CBD it will remove your back pain and it will heal you. Keep the good work up.
I'd love to see you come up with a mushroom, adaptogen hot chocolate mix!
Can you tell me where you get your ethically sourced herbs ,for the things you cant source yourself?
Check out Frontier Coop!
Very knew to all this, and a firm believer of healing herbs. My mother tried to teach me so many years ago, and I didn't want to at the time.
I have a few questions about your canning if that's what you call it. You use stainless steel a lot is this for sanitary reasons I guess, do you have a video on the process?
My wife through a lot of begging and pleading, finely let me build a chicken tractor. My next is building raised beds for food and herbs.
Who is the company you like to source herbs from?
This is off topic sorry, but was wondering if you had anything that would combat the effects of eggs that people have. I really, really love eggs and can't eat them in any form, shape or matter without certain reactions that eggs cause more that once a month or so, so being probably the key word. I can eat eggs in any way and anything things hat includes eggs such as, cookies, cakes, ice cream and so on. I have been battling this since I was 5 years old. Any ideas, I would appreciate it.
Where can I get valerian and skullcap seeds? I want to grow these things myself!
I like to buy my medicinal herb seeds from Strictly Medicinal Seeds - hope that helps!
What's your recipe for Golden Milk? Just bought a shit-ton of turmeric and want to try a good one.
Do you have a book or ebook? I would love to be able to purchase an herbal tea blend book and book of different types of blends of oils and tinctures that would help different symptoms, especially my migraines, allergies and asthma. Or is there a book that you could recommend for a beginner to herbs that would help to give me some starter recipes? I’m just not sure if there are some herbs I shouldn’t mix? I just found your channel the other week and have been binge watching during my free times. Loving your channel!
What two books do you recommend ty awesome channel
Can someone tell me how to see the storefront? Please
Are you going to watch the partial eclipse this Saturday around 1:30-2:30pm? It'd make for a great video for you to post. If you do , make sure to have a welding helmet or eclipse glasses to look at it directly, or you can stand with your back to it and do that trick with the cards.
Mattress issues here!!! I would love the lux mattress. My husband would sleep on planks if I let him. Is there a mattress that would work for us?
What can one substitute Valerian Root with?
-so how do i buy your dried herbs, i looked on all you links & can’t find how?
Can you do a video on making glycerites?
Is this blend safe while nursing?
Which Chamomile do you use? German or Roman or both?
My husband says skullcap tastes like sweet garbage 😂 Not awful but not great either. That mix sounds devine. I'll have to look up the pregnancy safety to see if I can use it. We are expecting baby #7 and I'm experiencing a lot of night waking
Do you offer suggestions? I have an 11 year old who gets warts on her hands. I’ve read that B12 and zinc could help. Do you have any recommendations?
let's get real hon.... that was a cup and a half of oat tops... I see you! lol 😉
Is cat leaf a catnip? Thank you.😊
What is your advice about diabetics
Is catnip the same as cat leaf? I can’t find cat leaf anywhere online
but what if you are allergic to wool?
I have insomnia and need something to sleep throughout the night.
I have been thinking about a birch mattress but I have latex allergies. I’m hesitant to get one because I don’t know if I will react.
Let me look into that. I did read something about washed latex vs non washed.
is there another name for cat leaf?
I see no Red Clover in those blends. There's so many herbs that people could use.
I can't find cat leaf
Not big on organic or not.🤔But it is true that your mattress can have a big effect on your sleep.
🤨Doing those "I need help" tasks by yourself could be part of why you hurt sometimes.😉🤣
😂 truth
Question: do you put oxygen absorbers in every jar or is that not necessary?
Curious why you don't use lavender in your tea blend? Is it because it doesn't grow in cooler climates?
You know I’m not a huge fan of lavender in my tea. I like the way it smells, but I’m not a big fan of drinking it.
The tea sounds like everything I need. I am just not a fan of the taste of chamomile.
Just looked up those mattresses and they are really expensive.
I copied this recipe. I will try it and see it works better than the one I have. I need help. The other night I slept for 3 hours then was up for 3 and then slept for 3. I dragged all day.
I'd like to let you know I enjoy your UA-cam. Could you please let me know where I can buy some of your honey. I saw something that you were going to be somewhere in front Royal Virginia on November 18th this year could you let me know where I'm 40 minutes away from. Thank you so much.God blessed. Mary
Where could a person get advice on certain herbs you need to take
Check out local herbalists in your area. Otherwise, check with a reputable herbal school for recommendations
Hit the books and look up herbs for what you are seeking, then make sure to research contraindications! You can do this, but if you were interested in seeking help… definitely research local herbalists and or look into courses!
Thanks so much ,for all your help just came across your channel and iam so interested in it even though iam 71 I guess I could get some books from the library
When will you bee selling your honey?
I thought peppermint was for energy not sleep
she uses spearmint in this, not peppermint
Not knocking the mattress because I have never tried them BUT unfortunately the infomercial isn't quiet believable when the company is a sponsor.
All other information was great.
Cat leaf is that the same as cat nip?
I have the same question. But when she clarifies, it sounds like cat mint.
That’s what I thought. She did say catmint, but it looks like her label gives the fancy name for catnip.
Did you know that mattresses gain weight due to the amount of dead skin cells and dust mites that build up inside them?
