This workshop is for you, if you want to make you own day to day body or household products that work, but dont want to expose yourself and the people you love to so many chemicals.

👶Please meet one of our new creations ❤

🌼🌼 Dandelions are blooming and so is our creativity!!🌼🌼

👶👶Nothing is more important than the little people in our lives, right?! 👶👶

Calendula & Dandelion Flowers Nappy Cream

Researchers have found that dandelions show both antiviral and antibacterial properties which makes it an ideal plant to use on sensitive skin, dry skin, or under nappies. Dandelion has many uses, from it’s leaves to the root to the flower. The flower extract in creams is well respected for its ability to sooth and help dry skin, skin rashes and small cuts and scratches.

Calendula has long been looked at for its ability to help the skin to heal. It is a fantastic plant to use in a nappy balm, it has anti-microbial properties, which means it fights organism growth and it's anti-inflammatory, which may help alleviate discomfort. It soothes the skin and has also been studied in the use for cradle cap, rashes and more. It is ideal for use on dry or chafed skin.

You can use this cream for the nappy bum, cradle cap and for little scratches.

If you would like to care for your little one with our creation, you can order here: https://www.naturallyuniqueessentials.com/product/nappy-bum/30

Please know we do not give medical advise please do your own research or consult with your preferred health professional.

Everyone is feeling it, a clear winner at today's market❤

Beutiful Mullein to the rescue!

10/08/2023

I have been receiving messages asking for the recipe of dandelion honey.
🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼
So I thought I’d share it here:

- 2 cups dandelion flower heads
- 2 cups water
- 1 to 2 lemon slices (1cm wide) (I have in the past also used oranges instead of lemon, just to change the flavor).
- Optional 1/4 vanilla bean, split in half
- 1 cup granulated sugar of choice or more if you want it sweet

Steps:
1. Shake or blow the flowers to remove any bugs

2. combine the dandelion flowers, lemon and water in a saucepan then Simmer with lid on for 15 minutes, DON’T BOIL. If it gets to a boil remove it for a minute and then simmer again.

3. Leave this to cool and infuse for the day or overnight.

4. The next day, strain out the flowers and lemon by pouring the liquid through a strainer or muslin cloth.
Press down to make sure you get all the dandelion juice out!

5. Measure or weigh the liquid, (my original recipe said to then weigh out the same amount sugar). I personally add less sugar but that is your choice. (I have tried this recipe with stevia but I wouldn't recommend it).

6. Put the liquid back in the pan and add the sugar. Stir and heat gently at first until the sugar is dissolved. Then bring it up to a gentle boil for approximately 15 minutes.

The mixture will eventually slightly thicken and become darker, this is when you know it is ready to take of the heat.

7. Pour into clean sterilized jars and put the lids on while it's still hot.

🌼❤ And Voila, pure goodness!!❤🌼

🌱💥Follow up to my post yesterday, part 2:

Getting the family back up to health.

🌼 Dandelion 🌼Dandelion 🌼Dandelion, all fresh from the garden.

I guess most of us know the amazing health benefits of dandelion leaves and roots, but do you know what you can do with the flowers?

Ever heard of dandelion honey and it's benefits?
But honestly I reckon forget about all the health benefits dandelion honey has, just enjoy the taste I say!!

However, if you’re interested in knowing more about the dandelion flower benefits, I propose you read up on it for yourself, as you need to do your own research and we do not give medical advise.

If you do read up on it, you will find information about it's nutritional benefits.
You will also find studies that claim it has anti-inflammatory & antioxidant values as well.
It is also said to have mild diuretic and prebiotic properties. Prebiotic is definately a winner for us right now, after the lurgy we just had.
But there is more.....According to some, in traditional herbal medicine, dandelion honey can help digestion and support the kidney and liver and may help with asthma and bronchitis issues.

And given that this last dose of the flu has given some of our family members an unpleasant cough, this might just be what we/you need.

I didn't have a lot of flowers (as I need them to make oils with ), so I could only make a small amount, but fresh brewed dandelion honey is hard to beat, wouldn't you agree?!

I better mention dandelion flower honey normally has a beautiful golden colour, but anyone that knows me, knows I don't do refined white sugar for my little one, so I added a small amount of organic raw coconut sugar (which I still don't endorse normally) but right now it has its place, but it coloured the honey quite dark.

So cheers to our mullein and plantain anti-cough tea, sweetened with homemade dandelion honey.
Cheers to strengthening our/your immune system and good by unwelcome lurgys!!

"Mummy can you make that syrup that makes my sore throat go away? " Absolutely I can, anything for the missus ❤
It's flu season = Elderberry syrup season.

3/4 cups of dried elderberrys
4 cloves
1 cinnamon stick
1 soup spoon full of grated fresh ginger
3 cups of water.
Bring to a boil,then simmer for 45 minutes to reduce it all to nearly half.
Strain, let it cool down and add 3/4 to 1 cup of raw honey.

💥🌱Vitamin C and antioxidants bomb 🌱💥

Well it's absolutely snots and coughs season isn't it?

Seems like everyone has someone in the family with a dose and we are no different. Ever since the snots and coughs arrived at our house we have been drinking fresh Mullein and Plantain tea which does wonders during the cold and flu season. Both harvested fresh from the garden.

Being reminded of all the goodness Mullein has to offer prompted me to make more of my ever so popular (at this time of year) snots and coughs salve.

How lucky am I to have the Dark Mullein (Verbascum Nigra) growing wild in our paddock and the Common Mullien (Verbascum thapsus) growing in my garden and also wild behind Nannas house!
If your family is having a snots and coughs month or if you need to stock up just in case, I just made a fresh batch of snots and cough salve for your and my family. The secret ingredient is LOVE, as always!

Ps: I especially love this salve at night time for our 4 year old!

Wishing you all a snots and cough free good day!!

An other beautiful day at the market meeting so many beautiful people!!
Hope everyone else is having a great day too.
My market assistant is doing it though 🤣

I've been asked a few times now what the difference is between our Joint Comfort and our Muscle Rub.

Lets talk about it. 😊

🌱🌱The JOINT COMFORT (Stinging Nettle & Rosemary) is for anything that is joint related or bad backs and bone health.
- Customers have given us great feedback when used for arthritic hands, knees, shoulder and any other joint discomfort, ligament, soft tissue issues and bone health. Waiting for - or recovering from a knee or hip replacement?!

🌶🌶Where as the Muscle Rub ( Ginger & Cayenne) is your massage in a tin. It's for the tired muscles in your shoulders, neck, and elsewhere.. It's also great for overworked muscles after a big workout.
- Our customers have given us great feedback on this salve when used for tension headaches, neck pain, or nerve pain like neuralgia. (It's the 🌶 chilly that has lots if research behind it for nerve pains)

And because our Itch Buster is so very popular let's talk about it too.

🦟🦟The ITCH BUSTER ( Stinging Nettle & Basil). Yes STINGING NETTLE!!
Is for mozzie bites, sandflies, midges and other red and itchy skin issues. We have countless awesome feedback from people who use it for insect bites, rashes and even eczema.

After all - Who you gonna call (when itchy) THE ITCH BUSTER!! ( I know lame joke, but I like it 🤣)

🙏😊♥️

Someone crashed while playing🤣🤣😴😴

And it's time for a quiet cup of tea for this muma!

In my cup today is a mix of:

Stinging Nettle: anti-inflamatory properties, acting as an antioxidant, may help with pain reduction in joints and muscles. May help with healthy blood flow

Fennel: acting as an antioxidant, anti-inflamatory, antimicrobial, antifungal, may help reduce the formation of blood clots and if breast feeding can really help the milk supply.

Fenugreek: May help with digestion, has anti-inflammatory properties, may promote weight loss, lower blood sugar levels, and boost brain function. Also brilliant to stimulate the milk flow for breast fedding mum's.

and Star Anis: May help when used in tea to treat respiratory infections and digestion support.

Cheers!!.♥️🌱♥️🌱😴😴😴

🌱♥️Plantain!!!! Such an awsome 'weed!♥️🌱

In our household we eat it, drink it , make medicinal creams with it, use it directly as a fresh compress on small wounds and it's our secret ingrediant in our homemade Vit C jellies we make when the little miss has a cold or cough.

🍋🍊Vit C Jellies:🍊🍋
- 1 1/2 cups juiced Oranges or Mangos
- 3 tbsp of Plantain, Tumeric and Ginger tea.
- 1/2 tsp of Kakadu Plum powder
- 4 tablespoons plain gelatin (grass feed / organic)
- 3-4 tablespoons raw honey

🌱Plantain's anti-inflammatory properties are wonderful to help in wound healing either with fresh compresses or our Scratch&Bump salve.

☕In teas it can support you if you have a cough or a cold and it'll even boost your immune system. Believe it or not, the other day I was at a market and some people bought our 'Snots & Cough' salve stating they could not shake a cold or a cough. All along standing right next to the beautiful plantain growing freely right next to my stall. They were rather pleased when I pointed it out to them 🌱♥️

🥗🥪In food it's yummy when cooked with a little butter or oil and some garlic, or a Plantain and Feta roll. Our favorite are our homemade wraps however!!

The wraps in the photo are:
- A hand full of Plantain and Dock leaves
- 3 Eggs
- 1 cup if Tapioca Flour
- 3 tsp of Coconut Flour
- 1 cup of Milk of your choice. I use Oat Milk
- I add some h**p seeds and maca powder to ours for extra goodness.
Makes around 5 wraps.

🏥Plantain is in our 'Scratch&Bumps' and in our 'Draw It Out' salve.' Which you can order here: https://www.naturallyuniqueessentials.com/

Depending where you live right now plantain is EVERYWHERE!! Go and enjoy it!

Ps. Sorry the photos aren't fabulous🙊😊
