3 Surprising Ways to Work With Rosemary as Medicine

Rosemary is probably best known as a culinary herb, but there’s so much more to this familiar plant. Once you understand its warming, stimulating energetics, many of rosemary’s seemingly unrelated uses start to make sense.In this short episode, I’m sharing three surprising ways to work with rosemary as medicine and showing you how herbal energetics can help you understand why a plant works the way it does.► How rosemary’s warming and stimulating qualities can support circulation and help cold hands feel warmer► Why rosemary is known for its impressive antioxidant qualities, and how research has explored its ability to reduce potentially harmful compounds formed when cooking meat at high temperatures► Rosemary’s long association with remembrance and what modern research says about its effects on memory and cognitive function► How rosemary’s aromatic qualities connect its traditional uses with what we now know about its chemistry► Why understanding an herb’s energetics can help you see the connections between seemingly different uses instead of memorizing endless listsThat’s what I love about herbal energetics. When you understand that rosemary is warming, stimulating, and gently moving, its uses for cold hands, sluggish digestion, and a foggy mind no longer feel disconnected. You begin to see the pattern of the plant.This is exactly what I teach in my Herbal Energetics Course, and I’d love to give you a sneak peek.I’ve created a free Rosemary Monograph that goes deeper into rosemary’s energetics, research, preparations, dosage, and safety.
