Healing with Hibiscus ๐บ not only does it taste delicious & is a great flavorful addition to your tea blend, hibiscus has many health benefits including:
~ Rich in Antioxidants: Hibiscus is packed with polyphenols and flavonoids that can fight free radicals, reduce oxidative stress, and protect the liver.
~ Supports Heart Health: Drinking hibiscus herbal preparations may naturally lower blood pressure and balance cholesterol levels๐ซ
~ Glowing Skin Support: High in Vitamin C and iron, this flower is frequently used to promote healthy, glowing skinโจ
~ Aids Digestion & Weight Loss: Its natural acids stimulate the digestive system, acting as a mild diuretic to reduce bloating and support healthy weight management.
~ Soothes Inflammation: Traditionally used to calm sore throats and ease coughs due to its demulcent (soothing) properties.
A naturally refreshing & cooling herb, try hibiscus as an iced tea for a cool refreshing drink this summer ๐บ๐น๐บ

Our sweet Jane is in need of healing ๐ https://www.gofundme.com/f/support-jane-richmonds-healing?๐๐ชฝ๐น
Many of you know Self Heal School founder Jane Richmond as a gifted herbalist, dedicated teacher, dear friend, second mother and someone who has spent decades helping others find healing through nature. Teaching others to heal themselves is her life's work and her greatest joy โ at 76, she shows no signs of stopping.
This week, Jane was rushed to the emergency room after several days of worsening symptoms that turned out to be a serious bloodstream infection caused by Group B Streptococcus bacteria. By the time she reached the hospital she was in septic shock. The infection had spread to her spine, causing severe inflammation and pain, and her heart rate had reached a dangerous 197 beats per minute. She is now stable, in excellent medical care, and fighting hard. The doctors have identified the bacteria and she is receiving targeted IV antibiotics around the clock. But the road ahead is long โ she faces a minimum of six weeks of IV antibiotic treatment, either in the hospital or a skilled nursing facility, followed by a significant recovery period.
During this time Jane's clinic is closed. The classes she loves teaching are on hold. The income she depends on has stopped entirely. My mom has spent her life helping others. And now she's the one needing help.
Every contribution โ no matter the size โ helps cover her mounting hospital bills, skilled nursing facility costs if needed, and the lost clinic income that supports her and my dad, her partner of 47 years, during this difficult time. Please share this page with anyone who has been touched by Jane's work, her teaching, or her generous spirit. Your support means the world to us and will help give Jane the space to focus entirely on healing.
If youโre able, please leave a message of encouragement for Janeโyour words mean so much to her and our family. Jane has never stopped showing up for others. Let's show up for her.
