Huntress is a blend to help bring us back to our bodies and back to the earth. Aromatic grounding herbs of the forest including wintergreen, pine, and wood betony bring the mind and body back to the present, while roots of ginger and dandelion deeply nourish and gently stimulate digestion. A wonderful blend to use when working to clear blockages of the lower chakras, Huntress helps to bring excess energy of the mind back into the physical body. This beautiful blend also helps to soothe occasional bloating, heartburn, cramping, and indigestion...further bringing us back into equilibrium.
2fl oz or 4fl oz
Organic cane alcohol, spring water, organic vegetable glycerin, white pine, wintergreen, anise hyssop, wood betony, ginger, dandelion root, skullcap, ghost pipe essence
*All plants biodynamically grown to the cycles of the moon on Woodspell’s own land or obtained from organic, sustainable sources.
Take 20-30 drops up to three times a day, especially in conjunction with meditation or other grounding practices.
As an adult, herbalist and founder of Woodspell Apothecary, Val Alcorn started to see the enchantment in the elusive ghost pipe and lady orchid when she would stumble across them in the wild. She would feel the chilling magic at nightfall when an owl would hoots in darkness. The trees felt as if they were reaching out to her as bejeweled flowers bloomed at their feet. She began to see how the forest could provide a sustainable restorative agriculture approach by growing food in the forest such as nuts, berries, mushrooms, and perennial vegetables. This in turn would help the fight against climate change through carbon sequestering that the forest does naturally. She saw how this could be an opportunity to cultivate common and at-risk woodland medicinal plants to heal the earth and the body.
Thus, Woodspell was born. Out of a love for this land and a desire to delve deeper into the gifts of the forest, Val began crafting herbal medicines that spoke to her as a way to share this magic with the world. The 12 acres her husband, dog, and two cats dwell on in northern Michigan sustain beautiful plant communities from pine and hardwood forest that is home to trillium, wintergreen, and violets to a wetland marsh that hosts gentians, boneset, and milkweeds. All the herbs + ingredients used in her blends are either grown biodynamically to the cycles of the moon within Woodspell or acquired from sustainable, organic sources.
Val's goal is to show the wondrous relationship in the forest between magic and productivity; healing and progression, and how we can tap into that to live a more sane and beautiful life.
