SWEDISH BITTERS - digestive fire for the winter / spring months

Our ancestors regularly consumed a diet that included ample bitter herbs and vegetables, particularly in early spring after a long winter of sweet celebratory foods and preserved goods, which helped them maintain efficient digestive systems and happy organs. Although we have four different taste buds on our tongues that discern taste (sour, sweet, salty and bitter), the conventional modern American diet is mostly void of bitter substances. Spring is a great time to integrate bitters into your routine, or anytime you’re struggling with sluggish energy, issues of the skin, and poor digestion- I like offering a small batch bitter in my spring update and this year I’m delighted to share one of my favorite folk medicines!

The story of Swedish bitters:

This is the recipe known to Austrian herbalist Maria Trebens of a centuries-old elixir that was once an integral part of European folk medicine.

The original bitters recipe dates back to the 16th century, when it was created by the famous physician Paracelsus.

In 1850 Dr. Claus Samst of Sweden refined, researched and confirmed its restorative benefits, and gave it the name Swedish Bitters. He was a believer in the potion and consumed it himself, living to the ripe old age of 104.

Maria Treben is credited with placing the formula in the modern spotlight through her best-selling book Health Through Gods Pharmacy, published in 1980.

Fair warning: ITS BITTER! This is not your average cocktail bitter.

Good Grief- for moving through grief and not being ruled by it

Hawthorne berry, leaf and thorn, wild rose petal, garden rose petal and rosehip, lilac flower essence infused into brandy with raw Wisconsin honey.

A potion for our times. Sometimes it feels like we have so much grief its impossible to hold- grief over loss of loved ones or isolation, grief for the political divide, climate grief, relational grief. Good Grief was made to help one process grief instead of holding it inside- to stretch our inner space holding- to ritualize what stays locked behind doors and in the dark.

Thorn medicine- creates boundaries and draws lines

Honey- sweetness and recall of the good

Rose- anti depressant and nervine properties, calming and stress relieving, increases capacity for self love through dialing down emotional tension when grieving

Lilac flower essence- uplifts and sees joy when coping with melancholy and anxiety

Protection Magic - for caregivers, healers, public facing workers and highly sensitive people

Protection Magic- formerly ‘protection rose’, I have punched up this old fave with yarrow & rose infused wildflower honey plus lilac & pink yarrow flower essences to calm tension and promote self love in stressful situations while creating a shield of energetic protection against negative external influence. Great for public facing workers, caregivers, healers!

Contains:

rose - calms & strengthens self worth over time by indulging in self love and honing boundaries (like a beautiful, flowering, sharp, thorny hedge)

yarrow and rose infused wildflower honey- teaching us that boundaries can be sweet

lilac flower essence- uplifts and cultivates joy

pink yarrow flower essence- allows us to hold space for others while also maintaining our need for separation
