Bone broth offers electrolytes and minerals and just feels so good as we sit close and skin to skin in the quiet hours of postpartum rest. Our bodies remember. Warm, close, deep ancestral nourishment.

i went to visit an old garden i planted many years ago at my childhood home. no one is watering or caring for this land, and i know most of my medicine plants were ripped up many years ago. but i just thought, maybe… and there she was. so much mugwort!

i often take my morning coffee out and wander the gardens, visiting with the plants and soaking in a little sun. i’ll bring a little basket and gather calendula that’s ready for harvest.
