What Is Herbal Intuition

Healing with herbs is much more than simply mixing up a cup of tea or taking a tincture. Sure, it is about those things; but it is also about becoming intuitive to the needs of you or your loved one's health. Intuition is not just something for tree hugging hippies. Intuition is not magic, although someone who is in touch with their own intuition, can certainly seem that way. Being or becoming intuitive, means knowing how the world around you works and feeling that something is right or wrong based on this inner knowledge. Too much? Let me put it into real life terms:

Knowing Something Is Wrong

A mother is cleaning up after breakfast, and suddenly has a bad feeling pass over her. She runs to the playroom, where her toddler has become wedged under the bed. Does she have a 6th sense? Did she have a psychic moment? Perhaps, but more than likely she always hears the background noise of her child clanking toys, and making sounds. They may not even register while she is hearing them, but they certainly register when she hears quiet, instead of the normal sounds her child makes.

What Is Herbal Intuition

When learning the usefulness of herbs, intuition plays a large part. As you learn about plants, what they are used for, the growing conditions, all this information forms a reference in your mind about each herb. There may never come a time that you will need to create an herbal remedy with a particular type of herb, but just knowing it's characteristics will strengthen the relationship you have with the plants themselves.
