Happy Solstice! Today marks our journey into the light. All religions have honoured the power of the sun for ages as its' sheer brightness brings us life. On this darkest day of the year we give thanks for the gestation of inward reflections. This introspection has allowed us to be mindful of what we can shed. It is now a powerful time to rebirth. ... We let go of what no longer serves us and we make room to welcome in new beginnings. There are brighter days ahead, that you can trust. Consider creating a little wish craft to envision dreams for yourself, for your family, and for humanity. With mindfulness we are stronger than we know. We wouldn't know light without darkness. Awaken from your slumber, and honour the bounty of light. This is a time to arise to new beginnings. I wish you glow and grow from these affirmations. I also wish you health, joyfulness and to be positively relaxed I leave you with this lovely poem from L.R. Knost Do not be dismayed by the brokenness of the world. All things break. And all things can be mended. Not with time, as they say, but with intention. So go. Love intentionally, extravagantly, unconditionally. The broken world waits in darkness for the light that is you.

Garlic Honey & grow & glow Sunday Planted another 150 garlic this morning because it was raining & soil still isn't frozen. I plant about 300 a year; 4 inches deep(tips up)about 3 in apart. Mulch. Garlic honey is a medicine I especially use with children that won't take raw garlic when needed. It's yummy and fabulous for adults as well. To make my fermented garlic I peel the cloves and slightly bruise them with a knife to release more of the active component allicin. ... Fill the jar 1/4 way with local garlic and another 1/4 way with raw unpasteurized honey. I placed parchment paper when using a metal lid and change it weekly. Burp daily to release CO2 Flip it daily. Within a few days tiny bubbles should form as fermentation starts..if not add a tbsp. of water. After a minimum of a month the garlic should have sunk. You can remove the garlic and store the medicinal honey in the pantry. This has been known as a wonderful ancient remedy for colds and flus, to soothe sore throat, tickled throat, and deep coughs. Garlic is a wonderful antibiotic antiviral, antiseptic, anti-inflammatory, antiparasitic, antifungal, it also helps to lower your cholesterol, to thin the blood (so the caution there would be anybody on warfarin, coumarin or any other blood thinners). I hear it even wards off vampires Eat a fresh spring of any herb if the odour concerns you. Chlorophyll will remove the garlic odour. I love a spoonful in my salad dressing Take care and be well

Fire cider Shazaam! Immune booster, this ancient remedy has been known to be an antifungal, antiviral, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and so much more. Because of the fermented compounds it may be wonderful headache, sinus, pain and arthritic relief.... Some ingredients may help reduce carcinogens, inhibit growth of malignant melanoma and breast cancer, improve connective tissues, UTI's, level blood sugars, improve cardiovascular health, fight obesity, and has been tooted as a great hangover cure. The savoury flavour is a bam and highly addictive for me. My fire cider cures for one full moon cycle. Add parchment paper under metal lids. Change weekly. I shake it vigorously daily. Some people following this, strain the goodies and add raw honey to taste. I prefer to just eat the medicine as is, about a tablespoon a day, though I'm often drawn back for second nip. Great to take through late fall and early spring. Ingredients- (organic ideally) 1/2 c. of ea: horseradish, turmeric, garlic, ginger, white onions, jalapenos, lemon juice, add 5 tbsp of lemon rind, a chili , a splash of cayenne, and fill jar with ACV with the mother. I also added a little dried hibiscus & elderberries My friend reckons I should market it as CYRious Ember Cider (my last name is Cyr) Take care and be well
