"Wild rose softens the areas that we tense to protect ourselves, unraveling emotional tension patterns that get locked in the body. Rose naturally works in places where 'flow' is impeded. Rose unwinds the stuck-ness that is often rooted in old grief, old trauma". - Rebecca Altman
You can hardly stop smelling the herb factory's Rose Powder. We sprinkle a little powder in our latte or on our smoothie. We also use rose powder in our baked goods. But in small doses as the taste is on the sour, bitter side.
When picking rose petals, choose the ones that are fragrant, they are the ones that contain the active ingredients of the rose. Be careful where you pick them, avoid those that have been sprayed.
We long for the opportunity to pick game again, but until then we let ourselves be seduced by the aroma rising from our cup.
