I never imagined my love for plants would take me here…
Being interviewed by @voyagedenvermag about Sapphire Herbal Remedies was such a beautiful moment of reflection —and a reminder that when you walk in your purpose, the path opens for you.
This is more than a business to me—it’s healing, legacy, and love.
Thank you for being a part of this journey 🌿 if you want to read more the link 🔗 is in my bio!
Medicine in the wild 🌿✨
Nature has been speaking loudly this season—and I’ve been listening.
Here are six beautiful plant allies I met on my recent adventures. Each one reminded me how much medicine and meaning lives right beneath our feet.
From soft, silvery leaves to sun-soaked blossoms, they each have a story to tell—and I’m so excited to share them with you 🐝🌼
Slide through to meet them 🍃
🌼 Yarrow (Achillea millefolium)
• Stops bleeding and reduces inflammation
• Supports fevers, cramps, and digestion
• Great in teas, salves, or poultices
⸻
🌵 Yucca
• Detoxifying—used for joint pain and any skin issues
• Rich in saponins, which helps cleanse the system
• Root used in decoctions or as natural soap
•In Native cultures, it’s a purifier that washes away illness, negativity, and fatigue.
•Only blooms once every few years—a rare and powerful moment 🌸
⸻
🍍 Pineapple Weed
• Calming wild chamomile
• Soothes anxiety, tummy aches, and restlessness
• Use fresh or dried in tea
⸻
☀️ 🧈🍳 Tall Butter-and-Eggs
• Bitter herb for liver and skin support
• Helps with sluggish digestion
• Used in tea or salves
⸻
🤍 Mullein (Verbascum thapsus)
• Supports lungs—great for coughs and asthma
• Calms the chest and opens breathing
• Used in tea, tincture, or smoke blends
•Its tall stalks were once dipped in wax to create torches, giving it the nickname candlewick plant.
⸻
🌊 White Marsh Marigold
• Not edible—can be toxic not be harvested
• A native wetland plant to observe and protect
• Beauty and balance in wild spaces
•A reminder that some medicine is not to take but to enjoy in the moment and witness
🌾 Some of these are native to this land, and others were brought here and naturalized over time. I encourage learning from both traditional and modern uses—with gratitude for the cultures that first knew these plants.
🌿 There is medicine all around you.
Learning to see the wild this way is a practice of love and respect.
If you’re ever curious about identifying local plants, I’d love to guide you. I offer plant walks and personal sessions for those wanting to learn more about the green world we live in
