When I was little living
on the family farm, I accompanied my dad to the woods looking for sassafras
roots to make tea. I love the taste; it was delightful and also gave me more
energy. After apprenticing for my part-Cherokee dad for a few years, he allowed
me to go out alone gathering the source of my dearly beloved beverage.
Years later, I discovered sassafras was highly prized by Native Americans who
used it for medicine and were extremely knowledgeable about combining herbs to
amplify their power.
This morning medicinal is inspired by a shamanic
Native healing recipe using sassafras, dandelion and wild ginger. For a
wonderfully medicinal decoction, take a half cup of each and boil them in
spring water. After steeping for twelve minutes, stir in honey and enjoy. It is
pleasantly surprising how good the detox tastes and even more how the herbs
combine to eliminate toxins from the body, chiefly the kidney and liver. After
the holidays or a pagan feast times, we all imbibe and enjoy rich foods, good
wine and sugary desserts. This purifying herbal blend will cleanse the organs
that cleanse your body, thus aiding wellness. This detox should be used
seasonally and is not intended for daily use, due to its great power.
