Bright, golden, and powerful Calendula officinalis is one of the true herbal multi-taskers. 🌞 Often pigeonholed as a skin herb, Calendula’s gifts go far deeper — restoring the lymphatic system, clearing inflammation, lifting the spirit, and supporting emotional renewal.
In this episode:
• The true story of Calendula – the “multi-petalled maiden” linked to the sun
• Why Calendula is a powerful lymphatic mover and immune tonic
• The role of resins, polyphenols, and why high-alcohol extracts are critical for potency
• How Calendula supports skin repair, wound healing, and deep internal cleansing
• Techniques for making Calendula tea, macerated oils, and healing balms
• Energetics: warmth, brightness, emotional clearing, and thymoleptic mood lifting
🌼 Whether you sip it as tea, use it in healing balms, or include it in deep-cleansing herbal formulations, Calendula reminds us of resilience, restoration, and radiant renewal.
