Oh yeah, it's Valentine's Day in February! Whilst we might argue that it's just a marketing ploy to get you to buy your special someone - well, anything! - we think it's a nice time to think about LOVE - like people have for hundreds of years.
So we ask you to write a post based around the theme of 'love', as it relates to healing, health and #naturalmedicine.
We've outlined a few ideas for you below - you can choose one, part of one, change one or make one up yourself!
What are some 'self love' rituals and why are they important for our health?
Cook a vegan Valentine's feast
Make a healthy desert fit for your lover
Detail an aphrosdesiac herb and how to prepare it as a tincture, balm or tea
Roses are traditionally given as a gift to a beloved. How are they related to our health and how might they nourish/benefit us emotionally, spiritually or physically?
What does the act of love do for us energetically, and how might we love better?
Is love good for health?
What herbs or medicines are good for a broken heart?
Discuss knowledge of the heart meridian in TCM
How can we improve our cariovascular health?
Discuss an aspect of the heart chakra
Write a meditation that attracts the energy of love towards our heart centre
What herbs are associated with love or the heart?
Make a herbal medicine that benefits the heart
