Beginners Guide to Herbal Teas, Infusions & Remedies: Explore 85+ Recipes to Empower You on Your Health Journey Using Easily Accessible Medicinal Plants (Comprehensive Herbalism for All Levels)

This book is for those seeking ways to improve their health naturally using plants. At first glance of the title it appeared to be yet another tea recipe book. However, there are lots of surprise recipes for other than tea recipes and ways to utilize plants to your advantage for the best health outcomes. This includes not just physical health, but health related to clear skin, healthy hair, menstrual cycle health. Sleep aids, kidney function, and so much more. There is also mention of honey and best ways to utilize various forms of sweeteners. This book is chock full of information and breaks down the best ways to use plants for the best outcomes based on your needs. A nice afternoon read or skim through and find something new every time. This one will get lots of use as a reference book in my family's home. I am super excited to get a new book and this one will definitely be read a lot!

I’ve been in search of a good tea resource that will help me to include healthier drinks that I can create from what I grow in my greenhouses. We drink mostly water, minus a chamomile sweet tea (with organic cane sugar, I make for my husband who is from the south) in the evenings. It’s wonderful & relaxing….. so my thinking is what else is out there from my gardens that I can incorporate into our routine that is beneficial to us? Then I found this little gem!! Lined up nicely with my thinking I head straight to the brain booster teas of this book. I have already got my morning tincture of gotu kola plus some misc. properties going on I take in the mornings for better cognitive functioning. Low and behold half the teas in this area I already grow. I am so excited to try out more tea recipes, freshly picked herbs straight out of the gardens. This book is nicely laid out and easily explained (for a novice or expert). I really enjoyed the bonus chapter, all the recipes, and the glossaries, but it will be a battle if it stays in the medicinal herbal area or the cooking/recipe area of my library. I highly recommend the Beginners Guide to Herbal Teas, Infusions & Remedies! Wonderfully written, easy to use & full of useful information. The glossary at the end of each chapter is useful & helpful in trying to figure out what teas to try next. Plus we love smoothies!! What a great idea to incorporate the teas into smoothies!!

If you are new to herbal teas this is a must have. Simple and easy to understand and follow. Great first step!

I really liked the exstensive information that is in this book. This is definitely a book that I would want to always have because you can’t always remember which herbs you want to use. I love using herbs and teas and this is kind of like a medicine woman’s book to keep you know if somebody’s got an aliment, you can look in here and see what herbs to drink. Also I like that it says how long the tea should boil because I know that makes a big difference and I hardly ever do that with my tea but I’m gonna start doing it properly. The only thing is I kind of wish there were pictures maybe at the beginning of each chapter or something. I’m just a visual person, so having some pictures in there just kind of helps, but it was very easy to read and I definitely am happy with this book.

This is a great book! Carli does a great job of breaking the book into sections, though I definitely recommend reading it from cover to cover the first time! There are so many great tea recipes in each section with good information on each herbs medicinal value for that particular remedy along with other information such as herbs that blend well together and interactions with medications. The book was easy to read and did not bog you down with a lot of dry "scientific data." Just a lot of good information and some really great tea recipes. I have already enjoyed a few "cuppas."

Informative, easy to read and understand

I enjoyed reading through this book and I know I will refer back many times to make my teas blends. Another thing I really like is the the benefits and warnings included. Not only is it a recipe book, but much much more. I grow my own herbs, and freeze dry them for use in all sorts of herbal remedies, including teas, tintures, fireciders, salves, and this book has helped me a lot. I have many herbal books and this is a great addition to my collection, it adds new information and benefits in many ways!! I am sending a copy to my friend who is also into the world of herbs!!~!

The author did an amazing job of describing herbal teas and the uses. I love the descriptions of the herbs and what they can be used for. This is a wonderful read. Very educational and love the recipes included in the book. I have already recommend the book to family. I think this book would make a wonderful gift for anyone who loves herbal teas! A must read! Keep up the awesome writing!

What a great book for herbal tea lovers. So many different combinations of herbs to help with your health and relaxation. Highly recommend.

Full of useful info and pictures

This book is filled with tons of helpful information and recipes for herbal teas. It includes important safety information which I found really great as someone who was just starting out on making my own herbal medicines and teas. I really liked the sleep and relaxation section, and the women's health section! This will definitely be kept as a go to guide for me.

Inspirational - a lovely read with such straight forward recipes to start a journey to a non chemical physical and mental wellbeing.

I love how this book breaks down everything so that it's easy to use. There are recipes in every chapter that are directed to a specific need. Then at the end of the chapter there is a breakdown of what each herb mentioned in the chapter can offer. I can't wait to put all of this knowledge to practical use!
