Warm weather means getting outside and playing in the garden, taking hikes, and being out in nature, which is lovely and essential to our healthy lives. 

Yet there are ticks out there, and many of those ticks carry dangerous bacteria that can lead to serious health risks. 

Your best defense against a tick-borne illness is your own healthy immune system. Your immune system has immune cells capable of fending off pathogens and infections, keeping you well protected.

This blog will show you how to safely remove a tick and care for the bite with herbal remedies. So you can comfortably enjoy our beautiful mother nature!

I combined calendula with other herbs in our postpartum herb bath to help aid in rapid perineal recovery and soothe hemorrhoids after giving birth. Calendula is also in our Nipple Salve, Diaper Salve and Healing Salve because it helps repair sore nipples, inflamed skin caused by diaper rash and it works as first aid skin care.  Calendula is why our Wound Recovery Spray cools a burn and Cesarean Recovery Spray leaves your incision feeling fresh and clean as your body heals.

Let me tell you a little more about this delightful plant and why you might want to grow some yourself...

As soon as starts to get warm out, we are outside more and more every day. If your kids are like my son, they'll be coming in for dinner with a new scratch, bump, bruise, or bug bite every other night. What is a mama to do? Well, she needs to wash it off, kiss away the pain, and apply Healing Salve to each and every ouch.

Healing Salve can be applied to any place on your body from your elbows to your toes and everywhere in between The ingredients are so clean you could eat it!
