Calendula - Beauty & Healing

[@tennesseenana4838]

THANK YOU! You have given the most detailed description of Calendula's uses and benefits I've ever heard. I think the flowers look like mini suns brightening up my garden.

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

They are incredibly bright and cheerful xx

[@karennewbury6430]

Calendula is a beautiful flower, and very medicinal. I've made a face salve for acne for a friend with Jojoba oil and beeswax. I have enjoyed it as a tea. Have a wonderful week Terri and Lol. See you next week! Blessings from Ontario Canada.

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Blessings to you too Karen xx

[@kristepioneerprincess]

Calendula is one of my favorites. So very beautiful ❤

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Mine too! And so healing too xx

[@thecottagemouse2713]

Thank you for sharing ancient knowledge. I love watching your videos.

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Glad you like them! Thanks for watching xc

[@kavannahlight5378]

Beautiful, beautiful, and so healthy, too. I've come such a long way on my herb loving path since completing Terri and Lol's basic herb class. It provided me with all the 'how to' and opened so many wonderful doors of exploration as well as such a deep respect for the power of herbs in my life and those I share with. I love being in the garden in Ireland with these videos! It is truly a sacred place, and it always makes my heart happy!

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

You are so kind Carolyn you are so lovely to say this and I'm very glad your heart is happy xx

[@gerarderikvanvliet2309]

Wij maken ook Calendula tinctuur en de olie. Ook zetten we er thee mee. Paarden die hoesten geven we ook Calendula thee. Vooral in de winter als ze veel in de stal zijn. Dankjewel voor de mooie informatie over deze prachtige bloem.

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

You are very welcome xx

[@julyjoy6756]

Thank you for the lovely video. I love my calendula. This was my first year growing them, and they turned out fabulous. I've made an oil with the flowers and it went directly onto my new granddaughters bottom. It cleared her little rash in no time. I also enjoy a calendula tea with cinnamon and cloves along with some orange peel. I have saved many seeds and look forward to expanding my calendula garden. Much love for July of Canada

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

And it works so quickly.. A gentle plant but so powerful xx

[@debbieretzlaff2912]

Calendula is one of my favorites! I infuse the flowers in organic sunflower oil (olive oil can go rancid) for about 6 weeks, strain and refrigerate. As needed, I add it to salves, lip balms, and use it straight up on my skin right out of the shower. It really helps hydrate eczema also❣️ I just love your videos, Terry❣️ You are so knowledgeable, genuine and wise❣️🌱🌿

[@belieftransformation]

Do you pull the petals from the green part before infusing them or dry the whole flower? Thanks🤗🇨🇦

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

We are blessed to have such amazing plants xx enjoy x

[@avrilwinters]

I had never heard that looking at them helps eyesight but this year I found myself fascinated by the luminosity of the blooms. So not one bit surprised at this! ❤

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Funnily enough, I just came across another herbalist recommending Calendula in an eye bath for tired eyes!! Xx

[@enna-liz]

haha, maybe they help our eyes looking at them cause they're orange....you know, like carrots with vit A are good for our eyes....(kidding...)

[@deanablythe9394]

Thanks for sharing these benefits of the Calendula petals, I was unaware of the Lymph and the mucus membrane benefits, much appreciated. All the best.

Your videos are so soothing and relaxing, your whole presence is soothing and transports me to a fairyland, that's the effect they have on me. I love calendula, I love looking at it as it grows and blooms, but I never knew it helped my eyesight, apparently I was doing it without knowing it. I use the oil I make a lot but I didn't know I could eat the petals and I also didn't know the oil I mix into my cats and dogs food which they love so much could be so beneficial, I always learn something new from you. I am very grateful for your work and videos! Hello visitors, and have a nice Sunday and week ahead, everyone! ♥️

Calendula, I use it in a crème, I have rheumatoid eczema A.P, it helps to softening the skin , with the help of cortisone because otherwise it is a losing battle , but it works, next year I plant them , they are hard to get the plants 🪴 so I buy the seeds 😊 loved the film and thank u for your knowledge ❤have a great week ❤️🙏🏻❤️

Wonderful! I love and grow a lot of calendula. I use calendula as well, harvesting and drying those colourful, sticky blossoms for medicine. According to 'Bartram's Encyclopedia of Herbal Medicine', Calendula officinalis gifts us with so many actions: immune stimulant, anti-protazoal, anti-inflammatory, anti-fungal, anti-spasmodic, anti-haemorrhage, anti-histamine, anti-bacterial effect particularly against staphylococcus and streptococcus, anti-emetic, anti-cancer, antiseptic, styptic, haemostatic, diaphoretic, anthelmintic, oestrogenic activity (extract from fresh flowers), menstrual regulator. What an beautiful, amazing, cheerful, wondrous herb! Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us. Enjoy your autumn. Cheers!

Thank you Terri and Lol for another great video! 😍I love calendula. Harvested and dried it over the summer, as using it in tea and making salve. I’ve made a salve of calendula and camomile. Very soothing. Used it even on my goats udders. It’s brilliant. Using calendula salve for everything, any cuts, bumps, rashes, I think it’s magical. High healing properties. Also, I use the dried petals mixed with other dried herbs in cooking, my own dried vegetable stock. Overall, I think Calendula is wonderful. Thank you Terri for sharing your knowledge about the numerous health benefits of this beautiful plant.

I so love these pretty flowers. I have not found the time to harvest her for medicinal use, but will try to do so especially now, after your timely video in sharing how to do so. Thank you for sharing your knowledge of all the healing properties she has to offer! Especially loved you mentioning how just looking at the flower, brings joy, and can help with eyesight!? That resonated with me, as I have often looked into the flowers and felt such awe of their beauty…yet did so subconsciously if that makes sense? Will now do so with even more intent and appreciation after watching this video from you. Thank you again, for sharing your knowledge 😊❤️🙏
