Another wonderful book is called Hedgerow Medicine by Julie Bruton. I make lots of herbal infusions from dried and fresh plants, these require hot water - unless you live somewhere really sunny - then they could simply be infused on a sunny window...
Thanks for posting, Charles. I've also been pondering on this topic and not just superfoods but herbal supplements, tinctures, elixers etc. On an energy level seems they'd certainly be dim of life force.
I get great satisfaction from walking through the woods and fields here every day.... I always examine different plants closely, the leaves, texture, smell, smell when crushed, the roots, the way the roots smell... it really does send you to anoth...
my lifestyle is hardly conventional.. i despise toilets and earwax is the only "product" in my hair, i have conversations with trees and rocks and clovers and chipmunks, dancing is my primary mode of transportation.. my divine purpose is to create loving energy into life, what i like to call, love breath.
