Instructions on How to Use Herbs
5 Ways to
use Bulk Herbs
Herbal Teas:
Infusions, Take 1 to 2 tablespoons of the herb to 8 ounces of water. Bring
the water to a boil. Place herbs into a reusable teabag or any
other non metallic holder then place into a container that can be sealed.
Pour water into the cup and cover for 5 - 15 minutes. Covering
the cup keeps the volatile oils potent until ready to drink. The
reason the difference in time depends upon whether it is leaf, stems,
root, or seeds.
Decoctions: 2 to 4 ounces of your favorite herb into
16 ounces of water. Simmer this until the water and herbs have
reduced by half the volume of water. Then remove and strain the
herbs. Drink when the liquid has cooled. Decoctions are usually used
for barks, roots, and hard berries.
Poultice:
4 ounces of herbs slightly bruised it is best
for the herbs to be in a ground form. Pour boiling hot water over
the powder - enough hot water to make a thick paste. Apply the
paste in a layer about 1/4th inch thick on a piece of cotton cloth large
enough to cover the area completely. The cloth can be gauze
or a light material, to insure that the herbs can penetrate through.
To keep the heat in cover with a piece of plastic.
Leave it on until the herbs have cooled. As a side note: Whole herbs
can be used as well. Do not reuse the same poultice. Clean cloth is needed
each time the problem area is addresses. The poultice is to be
used on an area that has been thoroughly cleaned. Poultices can be
used for eruptions, boils, carbuncles and abscesses and infected wounds.
Herbal Baths: 2
to 4 of your favorite herbs. Place into reusable tea bag and toss
into the bath tub. Insure that you do not use any herbs that can
cause inflammation. If not wanting to use in bath, this can be used
as a loofa in the shower.
Herbal Extracts: 1:4
ratio. 1 ounce of herbs to 4 ounces of vodka or brandy. Place
in bottle that can be sealed tightly. Pour alcohol over the herbs insuring
that the herbs are completely cover, even if it takes more liquid to do
this. Let this mixture age for 6 weeks, slightly shaking it
everyday. You may find that you will need to add more alcohol to insure
that the liquid is all the way to the top of the container. Do not put
this in direct sunlight. After 6 weeks drain, and use as directed.
Always label, with date, herbs used, quantity used, and
what the reason you made the mixture. |
