Simmill has also written easy to follow instructions on how create encompassing
creams, herbal bags, incense, salves, tinctures, and poultices for personal
medical uses. Comprehensive background information on the herbs and practices
allow the reader to full understand the rich history of herbal lore as well as
the practical uses of herbs in the modern world. Herbal Lore a Guide to Herbal
Medicine is organized in a manner that makes it simple for the reader to locate
the section and page to refer to in order to find the information that they are
seeking.
Doctors, nurses, and traditional
medical practitioners make room for a whole new generation of witches, wiccans,
herbalists, and individuals interested in herbal magic and medicine! K.J.
Simmill wrote a complete herbal lore guide that is both informative and interesting.
K.J. gives a breakdown of the medical and magical uses of each herb, but does
not promise results as different people have different reactions to herbs and
remedies. It is clear that K.J. is a person that is passionate about herbs and
that she did extensive research on herbal lore before publishing Herbal Lore a
Guide to Herbal Medicine. I only wish that she had decided to include pictures
of the herbs as it would have made it easier to identify the herbs on sight. I
found the section on making rubs/salves to be interesting as the recipe could
be customized to fit my personal needs depending on the situation I needed the
rub/salve for. I am very excited to try out the herbal remedies in this book
and I have become inspired to try herbal magic as well.
