In this episode of From Nature to Nurture, we turn our attention to Rose (Rosa spp.) through a medicinal lens, exploring the physical ways this beloved plant supports the body.

We’ll walk through the herbal actions of rose, including its role as a gentle astringent, anti-inflammatory, and nervous system ally, and discuss how different parts of the plant are traditionally used. From heart and circulatory support to digestion, skin health, and emotional tension held in the body, Rose offers medicine that is both subtle and deeply effective.

This episode focuses on the tangible, physiological applications of Rose and how to work with her in teas, honeys, and topical preparations. In the next episode, we’ll shift into Rose’s energetic medicine, folklore, and spiritual symbolism, but here, we root ourselves in the practical, embodied healing this plant has to offer.

We appreciate every review.

Welcome to the first episode of 2026

This isn't your typical New Year’s push. Instead of resolutions and rigid goals, I’m inviting you into a softer, slower start, one that honors the depth of winter and your natural rhythms.

In this episode, we explore:

• Why winter isn’t the season to rush into productivity
• The power of rooted rituals over resolutions
• How tending to your future self can be gentle and sustainable
• Herbs that support clarity, presence, devotion, and intuitive guidance — like rosemary, Tulsi, rose, and mugwort
• Ways to reframe everyday habits into nurturing rituals

We’re shifting from "doing more" to deepening what’s already there.

Grab a cup of tea, settle in, and let’s welcome this new year with presence and purpose.

**Reflection prompt: What are you saying yes to in 2026 that your present self can begin tending to today?

We appreciate every review.
