Besides its importance as a fragrance, lavender is considered calming to those with nervous tension. Lavender oil is sometimes rubbed into the temples for head pain, added to bath water for an anxiety-reducing bath, or put on a cotton ball and placed inside a pillowcase to treat insomnia. Lavender oil also works as an antiseptic making it a natural treatment option for skin disorders (sourced from HowStuffWorks).

Kräuterlikör
Von einem Urlaub habe ich eine Kräutermischung mitgebracht und den Inhalt mit einem sehr guten Korn gemischt. An einem warmen Ort - über dem Heizkörper – hat er drei Wochen gestanden. Alle drei Tage wurde er hin- und her geschwenkt damit sich die Ingredienzien gut verbinden können. Danach abgeseiht und den Likör wieder in die Kornflasche eingefüllt. Er hat eine leicht herbe Geschmacksnote, fast wie ein Underberg nur eben lieblich, der Zucker macht`s.
Porst, liebe Freunde auf Eure Gesundheit! 😊
Ich wünsche Euch einen erfolgreichen Tag und eine heitere Woche.
herb liqueur
I brought a mixture of herbs from a holiday and mixed the contents with a very good grain. In a warm place - above the radiator - he stood for three weeks. Every three days it was swivelled back and forth so that the ingredients could combine well. Afterwards it was strained and the liqueur filled into the grain bottle again. It has a slightly bitter taste, almost like an Underberg, only sweet, the sugar makes it.
Porst, dear friends to your health!😊
I wish you a successful day and a cheerful week.
liqueur aux herbes
J'ai apporté un mélange d'herbes d'une fête et j'ai mélangé le contenu avec un très bon grain. Dans un endroit chaud - au-dessus du radiateur - il est resté debout pendant trois semaines. Tous les trois jours, il était pivoté d'avant en arrière pour que les ingrédients puissent bien se mélanger. Ensuite, il a été filtré et la liqueur a été de nouveau versée dans la bouteille de céréales. Il a un goût légèrement amer, presque comme un Underberg, seulement sucré, le sucre le fait.
Porst, chers amis à votre santé ! 😊
Je vous souhaite une bonne journée et une bonne semaine.

Celadine has been known as a folk herbal medicinal plant in Europe since the Middle Ages. This plant was photographed at the ruins of the Frankfort Springs Mineral Resort where this plant was originally introduced to the local area. The resort was built in the mid 1800's as a fashionable heaith spa known for the medicinal qualities of the nearby spring.
Located in lap of nature and at high altitude of over 10000 feets near Tungnath Temple. Here research is done on Himalyan herbs (jadi buti) and their healing nature.
The name Saxifrage is from the Latin meaning 'stone-breaker'. This, however, refers to its ancient medicinal use for treating urinary stones, rather than the habit of many growing in and fragmenting rocks.
crown daisy, native to the Mediterrean, is often used like a herb.,It has a slightly mustardy, pungent flavour, similar to mustard greens but with floral notes and slight bitterness.

This is a tiny day-flying mint moth at rest on a sage leaf. It seems very at home here amongst the herbs but I've never seen it on mint. Usually it frequents the oregano or marjoram flowers. I do love the close-up view of the sage leaf. It looks exactly like a carpet.
Bon holy mountain - Pori Ngeden...Fragrant Incense Mountain...in Khyungpo Shangshung... Nemo Nanyi མེ་མོ་ ན་ ཉི་ (Gurla Mandhata) 7728m (25354ft). It is the 34th highest peak in the world (using a 500 metre prominence cutoff). It is also notable for being well within the Tibetan Plateau (most peaks of similar height - except notably Shishapangma, the world's 14th highest peak - lie nearer to or outside the edge of the Plateau) and relatively far away from other peaks of height greater than 7500 metres. It sits roughly across Lake Manasarowar from the sacred peak of Mount Kailash. The Tibetan name, Naimona'nyi, is said to come from naimo = "herbal medicine", na = "black", nyi = "heaped-up slabs", giving "the mountain of heaped-up slabs of black herbal medicine." In 1905 T. G. Longstaff, accompanied by two alpine guides and six porters, made an attempt on Gurla Mandhata. They turned back at around 7,000 m (23,000 ft) after being caught in an avalanche and encountering other difficulties.[1] This was a strong achievement for the time, especially for such a small group; at that time no summit of over 7,000 m had yet been climbed and Longstaff's height represented a world altitude record. The first ascent of the peak was by a joint Japanese/Chinese team led by Katsutoshi Hirabayashi, via the north side of the peak, in May 1985. Since that time, there have been six additional successful ascents and two failed attempts on the peak. In 1997, an attempt was made to ascend the peak via the then-unclimbed North Face route by Quinn Simons, Soren Peters, and their guide, Charlie Fowler. The team made a valiant effort, climbing high on the mountain, but after severe storms and other difficulties had to retreat. Their descent ended in a fall of some 450 m (1,500 ft) down the North Face of the peak. Fowler was slightly injured, while Simons and Peters both suffered extreme frostbite on their extremities. The standard ascent route climbs the western flanks of the mountain ascending the Chaglung'mlungha Glacier to the summit plateau. Most teams choose to approach the mountain over land by jeep from either Lhasa, Tibet, or Kathmandu, Nepal. However, an alternate approach begins in the mountain hamlet of Simikot, Nepal, in the remote Humla district of west Nepal and follows the Karnali River northward, crossing into Tibet in the village of Sher. Jeeps then take climbers north through Taklakot (Burang) to basecamp on the mountain. The first official American ascent of the mountain was made on September 28, 2006 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gurla_Mandhata
A Small Copper butterfly on Self Heal. I loved the colours! This little plant grows in the grass and I was lucky to get a clean shot. Part of the Mint family it is often used to soothe inflammation.

I've cut back my booze intake significantly in the past few weeks - STRICTLY FOR VANITY and not for "actual" health reasons. I just don't need the calories. :-) I've replaced late night wine with herbal tea. I'm getting results and it's a delightful ritual, anyway, especially since the weather is getting chilly.
Can I be completely honest with you? Sometimes I hate shooting. I hate the process of actually going outside, adjusting to daylight, dragging heavy gear (and by that I mean even a tripod), interacting with people or if it's a self-portrait getting my hair and makeup done.
I like editing. I love sitting in the comfort of my own warm/cool apartment, at my comfy workspace, with a company of only a cup of tea and my cat. Being at the computer and working in Photoshop is my happy place. It's where all the magic happens and where my work comes together. I don't need to be outside, deal with weather or people, look pretty.
But becoming fully a digital artist is also not an option for me. It's not my style and funny enough I strongly believe in working in real locations with real props. This way I can make my work as close to reality as possible.
So every time I struggle. I make a huge effort to go out there, drag all my stuff to the location, get wet, cold or dirty, or everything above and make those frames. But then I'm happy it's over and I can finally go home and create magic.
… these are not ordinary flowers but have medical use... taken inside the Herbal Garden of the Hong Kong Museum of Medical Sciences … (www.hkmms.org.hk/en/about-us/the-museum/) …
Opened in early 1996, the Hong Kong Museum of Medical Sciences charts the historical development of medical sciences in Hong Kong, and is one of the first museums in the world to compare traditional Chinese and Western approaches to medicine…The museum is housed in the former Old Pathological Institute, which is preserved as a Declared Monument. (www.discoverhongkong.com/au/see-do/culture-heritage/museu... )
A garden of herbs with medicinal use was first opened at the Hong Kong Museum of Medical Sciences in 2003. It complements the other exhibits in the Museum in presenting a more complete picture of Hong Kong’s heritage as a meeting place for East and West.
