    I love lemon balm! She is one of the first plants that called to me to work with. Calms frayed nerves - a cup of lemon balm tea feels like a soothing grounding hug.

    I use it in this way too, and often with fennel (seeds). I grow them in my garden in Hampshire in England. They are two herbs you cannot stop once they're established. I'm 75 and have been using herbs for decades. You are so eloquent and make you videos very interesting.
    Be blessed.
    Self-heal, another herb which proliferates in my garden, is very effective for herpes too.

    This is my herb of the year 2023. A true “gladdener”. It came to me in July as I was recovering from a very high stress period with a wonky brain. Within a week, I felt like all my synapses were synapsing. Now after several weeks, I feel so chill. Stuff that use to really stress me out is not. A real revelation. I just use tincture or tea daily, made from my own home-grown lemon balm.

    I'm seeing some comments about the huge size of your lemon balm patch. I have to ask these folks, have you ever actually grown lemon balm? Because this is what it does! You plant a couple of little plants, and in 2 or 3 seasons, you have lemonbalm everywhere. It's a mint, people. It's gonna spread like crazy. I have resorted to cutting it back at it flowers, to prevent it from self seeding. If you don't have room for a patch like he's showing us here, you might want to keep it contained in pots. I absolutely love the stuff, as a gorgeous bushy plant, as a comforting tea, and as a medicinal. But she's a bit of a bully in your flower beds!

    my algo brought me to your video series and I'm glad it did. you said in one of your vids, I think the burdock episode, that herbs have a way of showing up when you need them. my 3 year old son was diagnosed with autism two months ago, and it presents a lot like adhd. around the same time, my north philly patio garden started brimming with lemon balm. I read recently that lemon balm can aid in easing adhd symptoms in kids, i was wondering if you have any experience with or advice about this? appreciate you for your generosity with herbal wisdom and lore.

What kind of dirt is yours in? What kind of heat, or sun does it like? Show us how to use a still to get out volatile oil? You sound like a partaker of cannabis.
