One of my favourite Herbs for Anxiety
Vložit
- čas přidán 17. 08. 2022
- Join me in exploring the benefits of a group of herbs that are commonly found in the glacial wetland of the subalpine.
Pedicularis spp.
In the case of this example - Pedicularis racemosa
Pedicularis is primarily used as a skeletal muscle relaxant, though it also can be very effective at calming down certain types of anxiety and overwhelm.
It can be a great choice if there is muscle tension and conditions associated with an overactive sympathetic nervous system, such as insomnia, emotional upset and overthinking.
Its relaxant properties can help relieve tension headaches, as well as joint and muscle pain from sprains, strains, and overuse.
Do you have any experience with this plant?

• Who Is Harmonic Arts B... - Jak na to + styl
Another thing people can do when they are gathering,is collect seeds and help the plant spread.
Just listening to you takes anxiety away…for me anyways…I love your calm
Same. He has a soothing spirit.
I started smoking CBD hemp and it's helped me cut down on THC consumption! Makes me feel more balanced and happier!
That’s interesting
Smoke 💨 em if you got ‘em
magnesium will help you not put any tar substance in your lungs. see my comment above & my answer to NV.
You can also eat salmon and/or fish oil capsules....omega 3s are converted into cbd naturally by our bodies and it's much cheaper than buying cbd
Where do you get that if you dont mind me asking, ild like to try thst as well.
I know I commented last year, but I want to thank you once again for being a guiding light to me on my herbalist journey. I just began making videos again on my channel, and have just begun school for Wildlife Conservation. Your videos have led me on this beautiful path that I am now embarking on. Keep shining your light because you are inspiring many! Soon, there will be a wave of naturalists that will heal all on Earth. I continue to make videos in honor of my teachers, and you are one of them. Sending all of the love and light in the universe. -Jack
I agree- he is a amazing! I’m training as herbalist and I’m so happy! I checked out your channel and it looks brilliant so I subscribed. Keep doing your videos too! 🌿
@@jenthomas7825 thank you so much Jen! And congratulations on your own herbalist journey! It’s amazing to see how many people are walking down this path. Such a rewarding and healing journey! Thank you for your support ❤️❤️
@@nora-_- , I had to sub as well! ❤️👍🏽👍🏽
Weird, I saw this video and thought of the one you did on Mama Ganja, and quitting for at least a year. I still haven't quit, but I think about it. The overwhelm is real and potent. I won't rush out to harvest, but thank you for the information, and the gentle reminder that when we work with the root causes, everything falls into place.
This is one of my all time favorite go to herbs especially after a long day of work or a big hike. Making tea of the fresh plant creates such a relaxing and calming effect on the body, mind and spirit. I always carry a bottle of fresh plant tincture with me and recommend it to a lot of clients and friends for tension especially from the neckdown. Think of the person sitting at the computer all day or doing repetitive tasks where they are hunched over. Highly recommend but like Yarrow said please be respectful and only take what you need.
My favorite herb! Works amazing on pain. An every day go to.
Thank you for your knowledge, like many others with anxiety I'm searching for relief. Only thing that helped so far is Tulsi.
Ooh! I haven't worked with this one. I'm currently using Baical Skullcap, Yarrow, Scotch Broom & Lemon Balm.
Love Your Videos
I haven’t been getting your videos in my feed for a long time and this could not have come at a better time in my life!! I believe I was meant to see it specifically today!! Thank You Yarrow! I will be searching for it! ❤️
I have never heard of this. Sounds amazing. Thanks for braving the sub-alpines and the bugs that come with those beautiful places ☺️ 🙏❤️🙏
Say what ? Braving the sub alpines ... You must be kidding , he's not in a battlefield in Afghanistan !
I wanna work at harmonic arts for a season or two. Love what you guys and gals doing. Thanks Herbal Jedi. ☀️🙏
Thanks Yarrow! Love your knowledge of plants.
Interesting. I will look into this more. Thanks for the education and promotion of conservation.
Harvesting rule of thumb. Don't take more than one out of seven plants. Take one, leave six. That's sustainable.
Thank you for taking time
Oh you are such a wonderful find in The world of CZcams!! Thank you for sharing your skills!!
So happy to see you again! Thanks for the new herbal wisdom video.
Welcome back!!
Perfect timing, thank you🌱💜🙏
@herbal Jedi welcome back!
Thank you Yarrow
This has help me with Costochondritis and definitely with anxiety that comes with it.
I appreciate you and your deep appreciation
You look great Yarrow! Hope you’re doing even better!!
Thank you kindly Yarrow 🙏💕
It’s been quite some time since I’ve tuned in so great to see your posts once again…thank you for sharing your knowledge stay well stay blessed…
I'd love to see upclose pictures of this to make sure I properly identify the plant. I'm new to this journey. But I've had a very deep sense of being lost in our busy, Kaos, and that sense if TO MUCH BUSY! I am on a journey with plants. Medicinal use, the connection to nature, and finding inner peace!! Thank you for your videos. I'm going out to search for Mullin plants today.
FYI -- in my experience, all of the Artemisia spp. would be safer to use (in terms of GRAS for plant-based remedies), and would have the same medicinal benefits that you describe. Thx for sharing this video - nice to see that u have that intention of service for sharing healing techniques with all of us. 💜
Funny, in my experience, having smoked both Artemisia vulgaris and Pedicularis sylvatica I find Pedicularis to have a much stronger, more noticeable and longer lasting effect in terms of its ability to calm and relax the muscles and nervous system. But hey…. just my opinion.
I'm looking forward to learning all that I can. Incredible channel!
I have known so much herbs because of you bless you
Thank you for making this video. I am trying to learn all I can about herbs to get away from prescriptions. I will definitely research this more.
Never heard of this, but since it comes from a different particular region, not surprised. Looking forward to using this.
Wood Betony. Thanks. Really enjoyed your presentation.
You speak the truth
I enjoyed the video, but it would be much more helpful iif you would show a close-up of the plant to help us recognize it. Also, your suggestions for what parts to use was sketchy. At least you did make the video, reluctant though you may have been. So thanks. I watch lots of your videos, and am a long-time subscriber!
Thank you so much for this info this sounds exactly like something that would help me with my PTSD and panic attacks I need to calm down I got took myself off all my harmful medication that they were trying to kill me with, I live in Florida so I will be looking to see where I can get it from grow it and hopefully start making some tea 👍💜
Great advice. Thank you
Thanks for the Calm
Your ability to relate to " US " is really nice. Letting us know you really believe in your craft. Thankyou
I did find pedicularis here in Central Minnesota in late June, early July. I dried some and have a small tincture going. Anxious to try it
I love how you phrased that- 'anxious to try it'
*Love* 2 za Yarrow! Blessed by blessing.
You are so wonderful 💞
Will be doing my due diligence to see if can find it in my area. It sounds like it would be excellent for my hubs who is in pain all the time and also has social anxiety issues. Thanks for sharing your knowledge 🥰
Thank you for sharing your wisdom. I live in Kamloops and we go way up in the highlands. I will be looking for this. You have no idea how wonderful it is to have this shared in my own province let alone country. Blessings.
I live in ontario..I would love to.find some
Lovely video I always learn so much
Thank you very much!
Great information to have!!!
amen you rock!
thank you
I’m in NZ and really wish it was here...sounds like a herb I would love to grow in my medicine patch.
I am very glad you mentioned "if you're not dealing with the root cause of the anxiety then you are missing the mark" because even though I am scanning over herbal videos to achieve this effect, I am aware that the root cause to disease are indeed emotional and need to be felt and released from the soul before they stop affecting the body... That said, it's still a difficult practice for me to feel emotions that I have been trained to suppress and avoid since the day my parents began telling me to stop crying and basically initiated the emotional blocks that are creating the diseases/pains I am now discovering, so I appreciate someone who is sharing this knowledge which I am finding quite difficult to come across (no surprise due to the fear global industries have of loosing their position of control via supply and demand big pharma)
Yes, we need to get at the root issue of our Anxiety which is caused by trauma. Or we can go beyond the mind and ego and transcend it. Both methods work. I prefer the latter because it's gets at the root of all human suffering, the mind! The cause of all our suffering is the mind. If we had no mind, there would be no suffering. That's why I love Meditation and I love that State of 'No mind ' and Flow. Herbals and plants are also good and are there if we need the help.
@@andrewortiz5797 well, I know that is what you believe, but it is not true. I can verify that the root cause to our disease and pain is from keeping energy-in-motion trapped inside of our soul. That is not our mind. But we stay trapped in our mind because it is the place we like hiding from our emotions that we suppressed from childhood. We do this because our parents tell us to stop crying, little do they know they then just closed our ability to release negative emotions, and introduced fear of crying into us. Do you see why I am disagreeing with you now? The mind is not the cause, it is the hiding place. If we want to get to the cause and address the root problem, we need to begin allowing ourselves to feel every feeling that arises, and express those feelings. Anger can be expressed responsibility by punching a rice bag or shouting loudly. Fear can only be accessed if we stop our addictions, which we use to avoid the shaking or feeling of terror that comes with fear. And grief I find quite easy, but can be difficult to allow yourself to cry when infront of other people, but every time we suppress a feeling, pain is the result. And the longer we keep these negative energies inside, the more they will manifest as disease or pain.
@@TruthIsLove. I somewhat agree with you. Most people surpress their emotions and it's best to experience the feelings and let the energy burn itself up. Anxiety for example is energy. That's one method. But there are other methods and not just one way. Another method is not a doing but a 'seeing'. It's seeing the mind for what it is, just mere illusions. Ever since we were children, our parents and friends and schools and tv and radio and religion and societal norms and taboos and traumatic experiences have created within us a false identity called the ego. Which is a self construct based off of social conditioning. For example, no one is born a Christian or a Muslim or gay or an addict or a republican or a democrat and no one is born a loser or wicked or an addict etc... These are all false Identities we take upon ourselves they social conditioning. They are just stories. Meditation and Contemplation allows one to go beyond the mind and to see Life as it is without all the mental stories and beliefs. Physical Reality exists. The ground can be touched and we see the trees and the sun and we can touch things. However negative thoughts and imaginations cannot be proven to exist. Negative thoughts and stories of the mind cannot be proven to exist unlike physical Reality. So negative thoughts and imaginations and fear and sadness, are just illusions. When we think they are real, it effects our bodies and that's called emotions. Emotions can be felt in the body as shaking or tight chest etc... By feeling the emotions, the energy burns up or one could go beyond the mind and see it for what it is. The mind can be our friend or it could be our enemy. We need the mind to function on this earth but we are the masters of our mind. We can't choose what thoughts pop up in our mind but we can choose to react to or not react to them. We can use the mind for self constructive purposes or for self defeating purposes. We are not our thoughts however we are The Observer of our thoughts. Awareness.
@@andrewortiz5797 there are many things I agree with, and stand at odds with some other things that perhaps the meaning of the words we are using could perhaps mean the same thing but are used differently e.g. the use of the word mind, and to help us benefit from this interaction, if you're willing, I would like to explain further using how we can take things from Gods perspective using absolute terms that we can both agree upon so we can both grow from this conversation. You interested in hearing what I mean exactly? Because if you're happy with what you know and understand and have no desire to understand my perspective, then I am happy to agree to disagree about the mind being an illusion.
@@TruthIsLove. yes I'm open to reasoning. I don't like apolegetics or debates because I think they are profitless. I'm a freethinker and am very open minded and am even wrong sometimes about certain things because I'm human. However one of my duties is not to attack other people's beliefs but one of my duties is to challenge their belief systems and get them to see that God is Bigger than our ideologies and Bigger than Religion and Greater than our understanding. I myself, am a Worshipper of God and have a relationship with God. God is very important in my Life. I'm not a Christian ( I used to be a very religious christian) or ascribe to any religion. Are you christian?? Psalm 46:10 is a Powerful Verse. It says to Be Still and know that I Am God. To Be in The Moment is to be in God, for God is The Moment. God Is Life! In Him do we Live and move and have our Being (Acts 17). Jesus said The Kingdom of Heaven is Within. We are all One with each other and One with God! Jesus prayed that His disciples and future disciples would know this Oneness. This is what I understood from Jesus and His Teaching's. Jesus definitely knew Deep Spiritual Truths but most christians misinterpreted His Teachings and take them Literally, so then a new religion becomes formed .
If your Christian, awesome. Whatever works for you. I judge no one's way of Life if it makes them a better human being. All religions are pointing to God. God however is Beyond all human understanding. So it's true what many say, That God is Bigger than Religion and Bigger than theology (head knowledge). God cannot be intellectualized or reasoned. God has to be Felt and Personally Experienced thru A Direct Spiritual Experience. God Is Love so therefore God cannot be hate. Gods Ways are Higher than our ways and His Thoughts Higher than our Thoughts. Religion can help lead one to God if rightly discerned because religion often causes wars and hatred and bloodshed and division. Religion's that cause it's followers to kill others or to hate others is certainly not from God. Religion has helped many to Find God and many also Find God without religion or thru different Methods. Whatever leads one to a Better Life and to Peace and Joy. I don't understand why Humans argue over God? God is not something to be argued over because God is beyond anything our puny limited human minds can comprehend.
WOW 😳, this is a new one to me! I'm going to have to try that flower for sure. If it works for me I will share about my experiences. I wouldn't mind trying it for my anxiety. I'm a minimalist when it comes to most drugs. My idea or opinion is that medicine works better if you aren't using it frequently or abusing it. Like a lot of things. Moderation is a wonderful guideline! I quit drinking alcohol 5 months ago and won't touch another drop. Even refused cough syrup with alcohol in it besides all the other nasty stuff in it. Au naturel mes amis! Peace, love, and happiness to you Yarrow Willard aka Herbal Jedi! ❤️👍🏽😁👍🏽👣🦅🪶
Well heck! Talk about anxiety! I just woke up and started watching this. I saw your dog and for a minute I thought it was a black bear and got so scared for you for a nano second! Guess I need some pedicularis right now!
The tree4theforests 😊 BlessUmyBrother 💜
Thank you for sharing this. Funny how the universe sends you what you need when you need it :)
I wish I could find this
Thank you! Maybe you could do another vid on the wild lettuces??
Thanks. I don't smoke anything (tinctures). Been buying local tinctures from an organic vegetable farm. B.C.🇨🇦
Thank you yarrow. Going to see if I can find seeds to grow and share pedicularis!
Not proving to be so easy! Will try to contact you maybe you could send seeds?🙏🏽
@@meganashworthhartlen6685 I'm on the hunt too. If you find some, can you please let me know because I'd appreciate it and I'll do the same for you too. Good luck!!!
I need a good herb/plant book to carry
to collect some things. TY for an alternative. Have a nice day today.
Cool ty
Hi Yarrow, thank you for the great video. Does it work a little like the lobelia plant?
Is there a version of this that grows in the lowlands?
There must be something to this herb. Hella difficult to find seeds online where I live. The mosquitos thank you for your service Yarrow 🙃
Thank you for such a lovely video Yarrow. I was just about to purchase this online yet hesitated...with a bit of research learning it is a hemi-parastic plant. Can you explain more as to what that means? I am a bit unsure how to know how to find a safe reputable source for this plant. Thanks again!
live in Maine so ........... none here but lots of yarrow !!
I’m in NY not sure if it’s around me . But sounding like I needs this .
Liked. Subscribed.
I had a case of poison ivy. Made tea from pedicularis & this really made me feel better
Do you have a reference book you have wrote? Love your vids
Lovely, valuable video, thank you. I'm at about 3000' in the Sierra Foothills with lots of manzanita around but very little water after June; would I be likely to find this in my locale?
Louisville Kentucky around the knobs I wouldn't know where to. Look if it grows in this area. I guess I need to research
anxiety does stress and tightness the nerves so a relaxing effect is needed physically also
Is there a reputable place to but this herb? And how would you make an oil with to use topically for pain?
Save seeds Yarrow
Hi , awesome educational videos, I really enjoy them. Hop is one of my favorite plants.
Question to you:
Would you recommend it to pregnant women? if yes in what form and dose?
thanks in advance
Would this grow in Ontario? I imagine it would. Also, I'm not much into making tinctures so making teas is really what I do most with either fresh leaves and/or stems and/or flowers or teas with dried leaves and/or stems and/or flowers, etc., so can this be used in a tea (flowers/stems/leaves)?
Hi Yarrow, do you know if louseworts in the UK have similar properties?
For native plants, I only harvest from patches I tend to which usually means buying local ecotypes from a native nursery and starting a patch in an area where I clear non-natives from. As herbalists we should be growing our own, especially if it is a native plant! We can't be extractive and continue to deplete stressed ecosystems. Grow it if you want to use it is my motto
this plant was never on my radar thanks for the video.
Hi! I am wanting to start learning all about herbals around me in Smokey Mountains TN. So, I can't wait to see if I got some if that beauty around me but I did come across Jewelweed, Goldenrod and also Veronia(Ironweed); which is what I needed help with....There are several Veronia species and how do I kniw which is safe for me to use for tincture? Thank and definitely will be following you❤
Which plant did you say that grows in the south east that works against anxiety?
Hi, great channel! Can you tell me if this is habit forming in any way? I don't use intoxicants of any kind and try to avoid anything to which I might develop a tolerance as it's a slippery slope. But I also struggle with chronic pain and would welcome something like this if it could help without getting me "high" or making me want more. My liver is pretty upset with my acetaminophen consumption, so any tips for making it happier are also welcome. I chew willow bark sometimes to give it a break. Thanks!
As far as your liver goes, one thing you should look into is milk thistle.
@@SkyquakeWolf Thanks, I will.
🌿
Sadly, this does not grow naturally in Michigan but I'd love to give it a go if I could get some seeds...
Why would anyone want to 'get off' cannabis? But let's expand our herbal knowledge and use more and more plants to help our bodies heal.
Being on the job hunt or cannabis resulting in anxiety are two reasons that immediately come to mind.
Is there anything like this that grows in Indiana? I feel that each area has pretty much the same medicines as far as abilities. I would like to try this but if I can't forage it, hopefully I can get a similar plant or order it on line. Thank you for your ideas and help in foraging.
Can it be used as a tea?
Beautiful video as usual. I use cannabis for insomnia and I'm so grateful for it. Every 6 months or so I take a "holiday" to reduce my tolerance to this fine medicine. I'm looking for herbs that can help me reduce pain and anxiety before bed so sleep comes more reliably. Perhaps making a salve of this would be helpful as a topical for pain. My guess is that my body is in pain so it wakes me and keeps me sleeping light as I struggle to find comfortable positions during the night. I think there are others as well.
try edible cannabis
I take ashwaganda for stress .it works great.im not sure what that plant is your talking about.is there an easier name it might have.?
That dog’s so chill that it looks like he’s been eating it. Or got into his owners herbal stash.
🙏🏾
Wood betony tea ? let me know if this is good. Thank you
I am commenting before reading through other comments. I’m curious how easy this plant would be to cultivate-for example harvesting a few ripe flower heads gone to seed, then sowing them to grow one’s own plants?
Where can I get some of this?
is this one that can be clutivated with the same benefits or must it be wild harvested?
That plant puts a lot of energy into chlorophyll for a true parasite, may be more of a symbiot.
I appreciate the delivery
I was hoping this would crossover with restless leg syndrome. Do you have a suggestion for that?
Looks similar to self heal, is it related to it or a different plant , self heal is in the mint family
Where can I find this? Thank you.
