Show notes

Go down memory lane with Dana as she sits down and tells us about her first childhood memory with two different plants, milky oats and plantain.

She grew up with brothers, so she was always thinking creatively on how to tease them. She came across some plants and realized you can shoot, throw, and use these plants in a playful way.

Traditional Incense Crafting by Evan Sylliaasen Jul 26, 2022

Show notes

Learn more and register for The Botanical Resins Workshop Series

Resins can be an overlooked substance when it comes to herbalism.

They're common in aromatherapy, incense and perfumery, but what about the rest of their countless benefits?

Resins can be used in balms, salves, liniments, creams, serums, massage oils, body butters and so on.

The ancient systems of medicine treasured resins so much and often referred to them as "liquid gold," and "food of the gods".

Resins have been prized over the ages for their use in beauty products and skin care preparations, and of course, for their aromas…

We're excited to share an amazing new series – which is ALL about resins – from our friend

Evan, founder of The Northwest School of Aromatic Medicine.

It's called The Botanical Resins Workshop Series.

In this free course he's making it a point to talk about the many different ways resins can be used.

He'll help you see why resins are so precious and often have MORE medicine and aromatics than a lot of other botanicals you might be working with.

He's also going to walk you through how to make infused resin oils and resin-based salves that can be used for superior first aid, skin care, and much more.

Join this complimentary workshop and start watching the first lesson now.

This fun and informative series is available for a limited time so be sure to sign up today!

Hope you enjoy
