Healing Charm #1: Heal a Cold

Garlic is powerful magic for healing. It is like a little botanical emissary of the sun.

To make this simple-but-potent healing charm, using hemp twine, tie a clove of garlic and a clear quartz point into a scrap of green cotton fabric.

Healing Charm #2: Heal an Injury

Eucalyptus is bright and invigorating. It fills us with energy and immunity.

Using hemp twine, tie a bloodstone into a scrap of deep red flannel. Anoint with a drop of essential oil of eucalyptus. Re-anoint it daily or as desired.

Healing Charm #3: Get Over a Stubborn Condition

Elecampane root is aligned with the magic of the faeries and the earth. It neutralizes negativity and realigns your body with its natural healing wisdom.

This healing charm will help you heal from a stubborn or longstanding condition.

Using bright red yarn, tie a hematite and a pinch of dried elecampane root into a scrap of bright green cotton fabric.

Healing Charm #4: Restore Vitality and Energy

Green tea and peppermint are both strong and vibrant botanical allies, and they work together like Batman and Robin.

This healing charm will help heal mental and physical fatigue. It will also support you in regaining healthy energy levels over time.

Using green yarn, tie a clear quartz point and about a tea bag’s worth of green tea into a scrap of vibrant green cotton fabric. Anoint with essential oil of peppermint. (Re-anoint daily or as desired to keep scent fresh.)

Healing Charm #5: Bolster the Body’s Healing Process

The rose, as a physical manifestation of love, is said to have the highest and purest vibration of any living thing.

To make this strengthening healing charm, using green yarn, tie a pyrite and a pinch of dried rose petals into a scrap of deep red cotton or flannel.

Healing Charm #6: Heal & Lend Radiance to the Skin

A white or pale pink rose is purity, dewiness, and beauty in flower form.

This cleansing charm will help heal and beautify the skin. Using hemp twine, tie an aquamarine and the dried petals from one white or pale pink rose into a scrap of pink or peach cotton fabric.

Sending you bright blessings of health and vitality!
