basics

If by cramping you mean the once-a-month female kind, I find that
dried and sugared ginger is a beautiful thing. Also, chamomile is
supposed to work pretty well for both cramping and headaches. However, if it is just cramps, sugared ginger works way better for me.

Very informative, thank you! I was having a hard time remembering the difference between decoction and infusion. I will be attending college for herbal medicine here soon, so maybe someday I can contribute to this!

I could not have said any of this better myself. Great job.

I do not have easy access to fresh herbs. I want to know what dried herbs I can get from my local grocery store that should be in every witch's kitchen?

*Favourited* Im well using this, thanks for the guide, shame your account is deleted, I remember when it wasnt. Ah well, bless you all

Thanks this will really help me when I start my herb garden.

first post that caught my eye and already got a copy of these instructions thanks

thank you for this wanderfull post it is really intresting

do spices you get from the store work?

Yes, ones from the store are the same, just more processed. And the cramping thing? Sage tea works well for cramps and to make you start the cycle. I like this post, as it has a lot of info needed for every herbalist. Blessings!
