Beautiful, this is exactly what I wanted to read today! I have pink yarrow growing in my herb garden and I’ve been drawn to it and wondering how I can use it...perfect timing! It sounds just like something I need. Do you take it as a tea? Also, if pregnant, is it still okay to take? Thank you 🙏 ❤️

How lucky you have Pink Yarrow in your garden! I work with this flower as an essence, which is a solar infusion of the blossoms in water, which is then diluted. Yarrow is typically tinctured, rather than used in tea, and according to Mountain Rose Herbs (a trusted resource) it is not recommended during pregnancy. And please always consult a healthcare practitioner when pregnant! Just having Yarrow growing around your home is thought to provide a wonderful energy of protection and healthy boundaries, too.

Thank you for your reply! Okay, that's really good to know. I will keep it for my home, not my body at this time :)

Do you ever worry that stinger boundaries would make you a less effective writer? I ask in order to acknowledge the fear some of us hold on this topic! 🙏
