Rose is well-known for its love connection. As an herb, it is soothing and therapeutic to the body, mind, and spirit. As medicine, the rose you want to use is not the typical florist’s flower, but it is the wild rose, or as a cultivated variety: the rugosa rose. Some of its medicinal properties are anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, antibacterial, antidepressant, and as a tonic for the heart and circulatory system.

Many of you are currently worried about the toxic state of our environment. Chemicals are everywhere, and they end up stored in our body tissues.

As a culture, we know that we must begin to clean up our food, drugs, personal care products, and environment if we are going to live healthy lives.
