I used to manufacture personal care products on. A huge scale. I ran the warehouse, hired, trained and managed employees, procured raw goods and ordered containers, lids, seals, shrink wrap, and all of the components of packaging, including labels. Recently, after having patch testing, I am allergic to several of the raw goods I was exposed to. Doctors have told me that I will not build up a resistants to these 30+ ingredients. Some are natural herbs, some are essential oils, some are ingredients in creams. If I require an Rx that is topical, it is usually an ointment. I’m allergic to propolis ( which made me cry) my doctor say I could build up an immunity to a be sting, but not proportion bees wax. 😢 Also, I hate to admit that “Contact Dermatitis” is another autoimmune disorder. 🤦🏼‍♀️ This is difficult to accept since I have been so resilient. This mystery was finally solved! In 2017 I had a reaction that was unexplainable! Now, I would like to figure out how to help others suffering from this same disorder. We all have a different map of what we are affected by.

I this is something I do with my egg shells , I wash them get the membrane out , throw them in the oven around 400' for 10 minutes than turn into a powder and put in capsule's. For my calcium. but there is other minerals in them protein, strontium, magnesium ,fluoride, and selenium.

[@harrietpeabody2118]

Thank you beautiful soul. I am currently battling pneumonia and I am using many different herbs and honey. You and your family are a great inspiration to me. I have 5 children and 3 grandchildren. I appreciate you and Your family sharing your journey! I have learned so much from you! I love seeing your momma she is a hoot! Lol🌻

[@samanthahoos9827]

I don’t have a tub (shower only) but I make soap with herbs to enjoy the sensation too. Currently our favorite is lemon balm and mint with goats milk. 😊

[@sherylbutler8269]

Miss seeing your mom do videos with you! I love watching the two of you. Love the new projects that you are doing.

[@ThatAbigailGrace]

such a great idea! I love the idea of practical, healthy, herbal gifts, and it looks so pretty!! 🪴🌱

[@TheHoneystead]

And they smell amazing 🙌

[@homesteadingatnorthernwaye193]

loving your channel

[@Sweetpixels01]

Oh my goodness I am so happy you posted today, I was having a sad emo day and your videos always help me feel better. You have been a great inspiration for me and next year we will be opening a tea house! Specializing in our own blended herbal teas.

[@abbyslough1843]

Something I have done is go to my garden and pick an herb bouquet, calendula, basil, lemon balm, camomile, and put the whole bouquet in my bath… it is so lovely 🥰 and it’s easy to clean up when your done! But for winter time when the garden is asleep this is a wonderful way to get these herbs in your body for rest restore relax time!! And a totally great idea for family and friends for holiday gifts!!❤ love it

[@wendygonzalez2532]

Hello there! Thank you for those beautiful blend ideas. I do have a question, I plan on growing oats this coming year, and many more, but can you share how I can preserve oats, without a freeze-drier?

[@lilliananderson1986]

I love your content and I’m continuing my journey

[@debichats8634]

I know my BFF will love this! Thank you Kaylee!! She has a lot of stress and this looks like something she will use and enjoy! She loves herbal things so I try to supply her with as many as I can! You’re such a blessing! ❤

[@TheHoneystead]

Awwww you are soooo welcome!!! I hope she loves it!

[@danielletdg8423]

I will definitely be making this at some point. My husband often falls asleep in minutes, and it usually takes me at least 30 minutes. 😊 Thanks for all the amazing information, and soothing videos. ❤

[@TheHoneystead]

Lol I wish I could do that!!! 🤣 they are like a switchboard!!

[@alanbiesemeier6930]

Always watching...missing the Farm and your bees...

[@TheHoneystead]

Ohh yes!!! I am due for a farm video!!

[@daveharvey5764]

If you haven’t already perhaps you should think about writing a book on herbs and their effects on health and wellness.

[@TheHoneystead]

I am in the process of that 💛

[@elsathal7359]

Thank you for sharing 🐛💞🦋🍄✨️🧚‍♂️🛁💎

[@lilliananderson1986]

Also allergic to lanolin and rubber. I have to get rid of a lot of clothes that contain elastic. I used to joke about being the product of a broken condom (which they used to call rubbers) 🤭

[@tiffanyvanlengen4393]

Your videos help me recenter and return to my path on very rough days. Thank you!!

[@firstquarterfarms]

Perfect timing ❤my sister in law and I were just saying we wanna homemake all of our gifts this year

[@TheHoneystead]

I agree!! I prefer homemade gifts way more then purchased ones 💛💛

[@kellivossen8995]

Thank you for the great ideas. Love your channel and all the information that you always provide. Where’s your mom been. Maybe I missed it on a different episode lol. Have a great day!

[@TheHoneystead]

💛💛 I have been behind on filming with the online courses that I am working on, but my filming time is limited and since my mom and I wear MANY hats, we had to slow down in this season that we are in!

[@elizabethlink3993]

💚 Hello Kaylee, love watching you sit and shake all your tinctures with the beautiful teal cabinetry all around! I'm so glad ypu gave an update on your Birch mattress, I've been investigating natural mattresses, but it's challenging to know which to purchase, as several have great features. How did you decide to go with Birch? 💚

[@TheHoneystead]

I decided on Birch, mainly because of the wool!!!

[@elizabethlink3993]

@@TheHoneystead Thanks for your response. I've looked at some others, some do not have the springs..not necessarily am I against spring technology..but some companies have moved away from it. One think I do not like is such dense foam, that it's hard to even move. Thanks again for your review and feedback!

[@LisaSaliture]

The practice of meditation is really the only way you’ll ever clear your mind of racing thoughts. It’s a practice that takes time and effort, and I find it useful to use guided meditations right here on KZbin.

[@pineandberryhomestead]

I love this! I would love to take a tea bath- can you please tell me where you order your muslin bags from? And what size do you prefer for a tea bath? Just love your channel! Ive wanted to be an herbalist for the last 10 years and have done a lot of self study but I finally enrolled in an apprenticeship that goes from May-November. I cannot wait! I make a lot of things for my family but I am ready to expand and I know the apprenticeship will help connect me to others as well as the planta in a deeper way. You're so inspiring! Thank you

[@TheHoneystead]

I ordered these from Amazon, but I think I may get larger ones in future! www.amazon.com/dp/B07GTFJ514?linkCode=ssc&tag=onamzthefarmo-20&creativeASIN=B07GTFJ514&asc_item-id=amzn1.ideas.25UPUKU0RHZ0Y&ref_=aip_sf_list_spv_ofs_mixed_d_asin&th=1

[@tamararobinson2069]

@@TheHoneystead That is what I was wondering - how much is needed to be effective in all that bath water? How long does it take to draw the nutrients into the water and then soak into your skin? 🤗

[@NorthToSouthChannel]

I love this gift idea! I love drinking Lavender tea personally, but for me it's most effective when inhaled. This blend sounds divine. ✨✨✨

[@TheHoneystead]

I agree!!! I have made an earl grey lavender tea that was really good! I added a little milk and honey in it and I think it helps the strong taste!

[@NorthToSouthChannel]

oh my gosh earl gray with lavender is my all time favorite!! so agree with milk and honey too. mmm I need tea now!@@TheHoneystead

[@theprovidencehomestead]

I started making a lavender glycerite this year for my daughter and myself for anxiety. It is amazing.

[@MilknHoneyHeritageFarmz]

Thank you! Perfect idea for me

[@trindakajans165]

Love your videos ..sending blessings from Tx.♥️

[@angelaschettino1327]

Love this idea. What size bag did you use?

[@lilliananderson1986]

Allergic to chamomile. I can drink eat but it cannot touch my shin. I grew up on chamomile and my Mom gave it to us as babies along with fennel for gas. Before I knew I was allergic, I soaked a chamomile tea bag and held it on my swollen lips. Yeah, it got worse. I surly did not connect the two. Whilst waiting for my allergy patch ch test to be approved, I used chamomile/lavender tea for anti/anxiety and sleep benefits. Most of the ingredients I’m allergic to makes my lips swell and peel lime crazy!

[@melaniemaldonado6692]

I ordered valarien root and passion flower for my sleep and holy basil and nettle for my daily teas.

[@TheHoneystead]

ohhh lovely!!

[@lispendens]

I like making tinctures. Like to do a liver one with dandelion/milk thistle/burdock/and maybe some gentian root and oregon grape if I can get my hands on them. I usually take shots while making my tinctures. Then when the tincture is ready I stop boozing and hit the tincture to heal up until it’s out then I rinse and repeat :)

[@msannieem11]

I am excited to make these for Christmas gifts!

[@dugchris2009]

Where do you get your Milk stage Oat tops. I can't find just the tops. Thanks.

[@DragonflyenAmber]

Awesome idea! I was actually looking at things to make for Christmas, one more idea for the list :D

[@dsgardenadventures]

Just an FYI. Some cats react very badly to lavender in their environment.

[@spartacus3015]

As many flowers have different kinds, colors, etc, Is there a specific kind of calendula that works best? Is there a place you recommend getting some if one has not grown any til present? It's on the garden list for next yr.

[@pamelab.4731]

Thanks for sharing this great gift idea! ❤️

You are so welcome! 💛

[@Minee127]

Do you ever sell your herbs?

[@nancybrooks-hartz8807]

This is absolutely perfect !! Can you reuse this ?? Or just one bath per bag?

[@Meganrenee333]

Also curious, how much product and time do you waste in your apothecary?

[@sherryortiz227]

How do you organize your jars? Alphabetically, by type? So you can find them.

[@traciesites428]

I love gardening and learning. I'm really interested in studying herbal medicine, how do I get started? (other than my own reading and research) I would love to be able to open my own Apothecary in my town

[@TheHoneystead]

I am getting getting ready to launch an online home apothecary course with my friend Jill 💛💛💛

[@creativeessentialmama913]

Do the oats have to be harvested prematurely or will they still be soothing if they were more mature or fully mature? At what point do you harvest, how immature?

[@dayleneyandell7937]

I wanted to thank you for all your information. I am taking some herbal classes online but watching your videos are fascinating. Can rolled oats be used in place of oat tops? Or are the oat tops more beneficial?

[@lisabayliss7872]

Hi. This sounds and looks amazing. In the uk its so nearly impossible to get the milky oat tops and i can only find straws... Can i replace the tops with straws and it have the same effect? I have looked into how to grow my own and found cat grass here (Avena sativa) means i can now grow my own because i have sourced some, but this will take time, so I'm just wanting to make up a batch of this befote then if the straws will work until i get some tops. Your advise is greatly appreciated ❤

[@sarah-annunderdown6544]

I love watching your channel! I have started growing a few herbs here and there and just recently made my first tincture! But if I want to make this recipe where would you suggest I purchase these particular herbs?

[@user-milestoneMtFarms]

Where can I get the ingredients if I don’t have them in my garden?

[@peteellwanger5110]

I have a question that is not relevant to this video but I need to ask. I noticed the jars of herbs in the background stored in your cabinets. I have a small apothecary at home and I have been storing my herbs in closed cabinets based on information I have picked up from watching KZbin videos and reading about herbs. I am slowly running out of space in my cabinets can I store my dried herbs in the open on shelves like yours behind you in the video? My shelves do not have glass doors and my room is down stairs with windows that is as bright an area as yours. Please advise and thank you very much. I enjoy watching your videos and learning from you.

[@annettesaxman248]

Would love to use them, but don’t have a bath tub

[@halligoldberg5214]

Are oat tops gluten free? I have 2 family members who are allergic to gluten, but could benefit from these ingredients

[@trinityriverhomestead]

Where do you reccomend purchasing bulk herbs? Or is that something you offer?

[@TheHoneystead]

I love Frontier Coop!

[@kellylansford7794]

Do you have any honey left for sale?

[@Meganrenee333]

Out of curiosity, do couches and other types of furniture have these same toxins? I guess I ought to do my research….

[@CultivationWithChristy]

Is there a certain type of rose thats medical, or is it all roses? I want to start growing more medicinal herbs. I have a knock out rose, but didnt know if that would be the same..

[@earthmuffin28]

Way too much advertising the mattresses. I wanted this channel for Herbal ideas and more and more it's becoming a sales Channel. I'm sad. I have gotten good ideas in the past. Good luck to you.

[@TheHoneystead]

Hey no problem! I continue to share the goodness and ways I have been able to improve my health and sleep has been a major priority, which is why I was excited to share an update on my mattress as well as my opinion 💛

[@carolinestambolie9998]

I am in the UK and can’t get oat tops 🥲, can I use rolled oats instead both for drinking teas and bath teas?
