I've always been interested in natural medicine and what herbs can contribute to our health. This book hits all the sweet spots of explanations of the herbs properties, various methods of preparations and a lot of great recipes for most general ailments. I bookmarked many recipes throughout the book and plan on trying some in the near future.

Also, the writing is clear and has a natural tone that makes you feel as if you are reading the letter of a friend. A letter from a friend with great pictures, even.

I would recommend this book for anyone looking to increase their knowledge in the field of herbal medicine and hope they enjoy it as much as I did.

This is a great resource for herbal remedies for all types of conditions, as well as preventative measures. Tons of easy to read recipes, including specific formulas for babies, children and elderly people. There was a bit of plant-specific information, though I would've liked more sourcing info for some of the more rare ingredients. And one really important thing that was missing was information on contraindications for some herbs for people with certain conditions or who are taking certain medicines. Overall, though, a pretty comprehensive general guide.

This is a fantastic book, that I cannot wait to purchase as a hard copy for my library. This gives step by step instructions to use herbs. I can't wait to use the recipes in my every day like for better living.

Anyone who grows herbs in their garden and wants to know how to make tinctures with them for home remedies, this is the book for you. The master recipes in this book are used for many health conditions. The book starts out telling which herbs are the best to use, then into the proper way to make the tinctures. A lot of extra helpful tips are included as well as a great reference section. I highly recommend this book.

This will be an excellent guide for anyone who is interested in natural medicine and using herbs as an alternative healthcare means. This book gives a general overview of the methods of preparing herbs for medicinal use as well as individual recipes which are well organized alphabetically by ailment. This is a great reference book for those in natural healthcare as well as individuals interested in taking charge of their own health care.
I received a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

This book is filled with more than just herbal recipes ranging from infants to the elderly. It includes even recipes for pets! The book does a good job in listing several recipes for the whole body, not sticking to just a few basic recipes and then that is it.
  I love that this book includes so much detailed information that would help those who are just beginning, to even the more experienced herbalist. The author intersperses pictures to demonstrate her techniques to help guide the reader in some of her more difficult methods.
  I was really impressed by the author's dedication to help the reader be able to become as self-sufficient as possible. The reader would be able to make their own oils, tinctures, even pills. I especially liked the chart included in the infant section that showed what the proper dosage would be for the infant.
  The book goes into so much depth, that it even has a section on the most common herbs used. It categorizes them by their common herbal name such as "mugwort" but also gives you their Latin name so you can easily look them up (pictures of course are provided) so you can get even more additional information than the author has given you.
  This book would be a great tool for anyone looking to explore herbalism, or would like to expand their knowledge. I would recommend it given how much information is packed within these pages and how much research and knowledge the author has shown.
  This book was kindly given to me to review by netgalley.

This is an extensive book covering a huge amount of useful information and instructions from a very knowledgeable author. Beautifully illustrated throughout with step by step instructions. Every process is covered in so much detail that an absolute beginner could have a go. There is a recipe for everything so everyone will find something that appeals to them. I love the book and would love to keep the hard copy on my coffee table. Thank You

I am all about using herbs instead of pharmaceuticals drugs with their endless list of side effects. This is a phenomenal book in providing natural alternate means to deal with health issues from babies’ cradle cap to elders’ brain support. It has recipes for everyday problems like headaches and stress to individual related issues such as neuralgia.
This well researched book contains clearly defined and detailed recipes. It’s an exemplary reference book that should be included in your home library.

Very interesting book! I have been interested in essential oils for a while, but did not know much about them. This book is informative and I love the basic recipes that can be adapted to fit my needs. I made some salve and love it! Thanks for the opportunity to check this out!

This book is AMAZING!! So informative. Can't wait to try out the tinctures. Love how the author tells you about every ingredient and then how to use them. It really helps you understand further/deeper what exactly you are making.
