Nourishing Herbal Infusions = Original Messages

Nourishing herbal infusions are the keys to unlocking optimum health, preventing chronic problems, and finally being free of supplements and drugs. They, and other herbs listed below, provide the "original keys" that precisely fit the epigenetic locks in your cells and in your mitochondria.

This short course — which I have not done yet — will focus on a dozen specific herbs that act as original messages for specific organs or systems, and easy ways to use them to restore, revitalize, and maintain optimum health.

Class 1:
What is an original message?*
Mullein = Lungs
Nettle = Kidneys
Tea or infusion?
Milk and herbal smoke as allies for the lungs.
* As cells replicate, they tell the new cell what to do. Like a game of telephone, the original message gets distorted and changed by the repetition.

Class 2:
Receptor sites and original keys**
Hawthorn = Heart
Dandelion = Liver
Tincture or infusion?
Nourishers and adaptogens
** Cells choose what they consume by means of receptor sites, which recognize complex arrangements of naturally-occurring substances, but may not recognize simpler, lab-made supplements.

Class 3:
Enzymes as keys***
Oatstraw = CNS
Cannabis = Pain relief
Internal or external?
*** Enzymes are proteins which act as catalysts to accelerate biological processes without being destroyed in the process. Enzymes are created "by stringing together up to a thousand amino acids in a very specific sequence."

You make the enzymes you need; taking them is not effective. "Digestive enzyme supplements purportedly fix all sorts of abdominal symptoms, as well as overall gut health, however, for most people, there's little evidence that they do any good." https://www.health.harvard.edu/.../can-taking-enzyme...

Class 4:
Cell membranes and microbiomes*
Hypericum = Skin
Schisandra = Energetic systems
Homeopathy or herbal medicine?
* The cell membrane is a protective barrier that keeps things out of the cell. Enzymes and electrical charges open doors in the membrane.

Class 5:
Epigenetics is a key concept
Poke, Astragalus = Immune System
Butter = Hormonal System
Coffee = Brain
It's a matter of dose

Class 6:
Mitochondria are the ultimate key
Comfrey = Tendons, ligaments, joints
Seaweed = Thyroid
Motherwort = Circulatory System

Perhaps I will do this as a video series with Justine. But we are hard at work on the new book "The Spirit of the Plants" with my mitochondria quilts and Matthew Becker's incredible herbal poetry.

And when we are done with that book — which is the first of a four-part series — we plan to create a video course on Nootropics. Nootropics are herbs (and supplements and drugs) that can preserve memory, prevent dementia and AD, and even possibly reverse memory loss.

We know you are eager for that course.
