Reiki is a Japanese technique for reducing stress and promoting relaxation and healing within the body and energy field. Reiki is administered by hands being placed on the body with the intention of healing. It is based on the idea that we all have a “life force energy” that flows through and around us which keeps us alive. When our “life force energy” is low, we may be easier to become sick, stressed, and generally unwell. Reiki treats the entire person, mind, body, and spirit, and is a most beautiful experience, leaving us feeling relaxed, secure, peaceful and energetically renewed. Reiki is a wonderful, natural way of healing that has a profound effect on any known ailment and anyone can use it. Everything is connected. But how is it connected? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/1603045174292-XQ3L3KUPW4KQ66E7BSSN/20191119_081728.jpg Reiki - who can practice? Absolutely anyone can learn to practice Reiki. Reiki is not taught in a traditional way, but by one Reiki Master passing on the ability during an “attunement” to the student, allowing for the student to tap into an unlimited supply of “life force energy”. A Reiki practitioner, once “attuned” to Reiki can then choose to become a Second, Third and Fourth Degree Practitioner (Reiki Master and Teacher.) All of these levels require “attunements”. Reiki can be practiced by anyone, of any background, age, or education. It is available to us all, and is intended to improve one’s quality of life and improve the health of anyone seeking healing. The wonderful thing about Reiki, is that you don’t even need to believe that it works for it to work. Reiki is not dependent on any belief system or religion. It is merely a way of living in harmony and peace. Although it is not a religion, it is recommended that one still live and act in a way that promotes harmony with other beings. The founder of the Reiki System of Natural Healing, Mikao Usui, recommended that we practice certain simple ethical ideals to promote peace and harmony, which are nearly universal across all cultures. https://www.unitypharms.org/meditation-1 daily 0.75 2025-12-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/1603046050544-NMPFUGD4OAJ8HQVHLNEZ/Heal+Yourself1.png Meditation - Let’s talk Meditation Have you ever thought to yourself, “I can’t meditate”? or “My mind just won’t slow down”? Let me first say, that we have ALL had these thoughts. We all had to start somewhere, and when we are first learning to meditate, there tends to be those fearful and annoying thoughts that pop in and try to hold us back from beginning the practice of meditation. But that is exactly what it is… a practice. And just like anything else, it takes desire, a little dedication, and consistency to turn a beginner into Practitioner of Meditation. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/1603202633717-01X15WUEH14HMK3ST7MM/image1.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/1603206646569-HB765YDV579VBOTDSXBF/chakras4.jpg Meditation - chakras The Sanskrit word Chakra translates to “wheel” or “disk”. Chakras are the concentrated energy centers (wheels) within the body, and each one has it’s own function and purpose. There are Major and Minor Chakras within our energetic body systems. The seven main Chakras align along the spine, beginning at the base of the spine up to the crown of the head. These Chakras run along the spine and extend beyond and through the front, back, and both sides of your body. Chakras are energy centers that are not seen with the eye, but they can be felt, seen and sensed with intuition. That Energy is called Prana, which flows through and around us, keeping us healthy, vibrant and alive. Chakras store energy within them from our thoughts, feelings, experiences, memories and actions. Our behavior and mindset are effected by what we store within our Chakras. Our inner reality effects our outer reality. So when we have stored negativity and past emotional turmoil, and the like, it can manifest outwardly and harshly effect our lives. When we practice healing our Chakras, we are transmuting and releasing the life force of each Chakra, so that we can consciously bring in what we want instead of experiencing more of the same. We can intentionally connect with our stored energy to understand how our past is effecting our future, and influencing our behaviors, health, relationships and more. The seven main Chakras correspond to and contain a multitude of nerves, organs, emotions, and spiritual states of being, and because everything moves around, energetically, it is very important to keep those energy centers open, aligned and moving. When our Chakras are blocked, the energy flow is restricted and the energy has no where to go, so it sits there, stagnant and grows more negative energy and discontent within the system. This physical part can be fixed easily if we have an awareness of it. Keeping them open can be a little more tricky, but can be done. Even the simple practice of Meditation can open blockages within the Chakras. Bringing awareness to the blockage of a specific Chakra can even help to open the other Chakras, as well. There are many ways, in addition, to heal and open our Chakras. We can incorporate sound, herbs, colors, crystals and more into our practice to help us along. There is much more to learn on the subject of Chakras and Prana. I recommend beginning a Meditation practice and building awareness of the energy centers within your body and Aura and using your intuition toward healing yourself. https://www.unitypharms.org/home daily 1.0 2025-12-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/1603210921860-DUTV9DHPZ7T556BEZ5MS/passion2.jpg Home - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cfe60566ff04c000133906a/1587664228476-WBQT4YIO1EXLAYGVY9KF/Florist0089.jpg Home - Healing is an epic journey… We believe that everyone should have access to plant-based herbal remedies and to have the knowledge to use them properly.

I soon became a seasoned, and natural meditator with a consistent and beautiful Meditation practice. I healed myself of debilitating anxiety, stress and insomnia with Meditation and got myself on the most beautiful road to healing with practices I use every day to maintain a level of peace and harmony I never thought was possible. I then became a Meditation teacher and started a business called Oside Wellness Workshop in Oceanside, California. A place for Healing the Mind Body and Spirit. Sharing the space with other healers, and opening the space to the public for art and other representations of people and their spiritual journeys. I am a huge advocate for healing with Meditation and Reiki and I share what I know with others. If ever you have a question for how to begin or wish to share any stories of your own journey, I am so happy to hear it. Please reach out and I will answer back as soon as I can. UPDATE: 03-13-2021 We recently had to shut down our beautiful space due to Covid-19. Since then, my Reiki and Meditation classes have had to move to my home, where I still book sessions, teach, and hold small Meditation circles. Luckily this was an option for me, and I am happy to still book with you. Please reach out with any questions regarding classes and circles.

The founder of the Reiki System of Natural Healing, Mikao Usui, recommended that we practice certain simple ethical ideals to promote peace and harmony, which are nearly universal across all cultures. https://www.unitypharms.org/healing daily 0.75 2025-08-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/1a7169b8-443b-4b8b-910e-c5506b455cf2/Amy20.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/1727207394322-CNCY1VTZX4JEYSRX4OOI/unsplash-image-Ap4h8QIxPVE.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/1727281937520-0GEU9ICUWG6NO0HDNXYK/unsplash-image-iQWvVYMtv1k.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/1727282041403-IYEANSKUZ51F1XEOZUSO/reiki1.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/1727282161236-S74Z2KEY6EHCXAR7PJ3D/unsplash-image-JDlZCEwjFiI.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/c4304703-4f03-40ea-9fd2-99b810d425e1/meditation+circle1.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/96acefbb-e89a-4264-87fb-9d04f13ba6cf/healing3.jpg https://www.unitypharms.org/services-4 daily 0.75 2025-12-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1618497259178-6XJGK9GR6YAVBQL5L519/20140301_Trade-151_012-2.jpg Services 4 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1607694583486-2PQT0LQ193RL7MCB6DX4/20140228_Trade+151_0046.jpg Services 4 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1607694644871-IC85FNH781UNZSZEGHDR/Aro+Ha_0428.jpg Services 4 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1607638148090-Y6OFDI575CM3NQV732RJ/Large+JPG-Aro+Ha_0387.jpg Services 4 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1607628784608-5D22G9GPLHDSAB2IXC2G/Large+JPG-Aro+Ha_0638.jpg Services 4 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1589847743861-GWVMBPD7Z7WQRQL9IZZ8/Large+JPG-Aro+Ha_0380.jpg Services 4 https://www.unitypharms.org/ovary-acting-tea daily 0.75 2025-09-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/61cfa73c-231a-47fe-9856-611e43ac14f3/ovarytea2.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/1753548329612-KT1TZY80RHO8PKXQ6KNY/unsplash-image-xMNel_otvWs.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/1753548443461-4G1LTX2DQ8BIITLWON09/unsplash-image-eXDA1DduErQ.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/1753548394484-JTU6G67GO4C7RXQMG23K/unsplash-image-mIFbcJIoFEY.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/1753548490858-6ERZP6NUOE4N88UMCXUU/unsplash-image-HRayFsFYkhM.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/1753550684935-G2PUQENLKFTJEI0IR9L9/unsplash-image-qEcWgrTG578.jpg https://www.unitypharms.org/join-ovary-acting-sign-up daily 0.75 2025-08-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/b4b81558-dc37-4018-83e2-a24a3f5eec1d/unsplash-image-qEcWgrTG578.jpg https://www.unitypharms.org/somatics-for-kids daily 0.75 2025-09-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/1756169642377-GRCB85V8R9KVOYMN10PO/unsplash-image-oGPqOxR7EjE.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/5ef2e01d-84ab-4eb2-8768-8c42f649e9ae/20240910_155046-EDIT.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/196c192b-8557-4224-9e75-c317af60d542/IMG_9003-EDIT.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/1756850048115-M7EUDO8WYNXBPFQR3NCF/unsplash-image-tduUz1kMFyg.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/1756226734625-2OVVNVNG8FQVYR36W2BB/unsplash-image-hHMpM4SQ8kE.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/55806533-5c32-4869-93ff-ae316eb8154a/IMG_9004-EDIT.jpg https://www.unitypharms.org/shop daily 0.75 2025-08-29 https://www.unitypharms.org/shop/body-oils monthly 0.5 2021-03-05 https://www.unitypharms.org/shop/salves monthly 0.5 2023-12-03 https://www.unitypharms.org/shop/smoke-blends monthly 0.5 2021-02-02 https://www.unitypharms.org/shop/teas monthly 0.5 2025-08-29 https://www.unitypharms.org/shop/teas/dried-herbs monthly 0.5 2023-06-16 https://www.unitypharms.org/shop/tinctures monthly 0.5 2025-01-18 https://www.unitypharms.org/shop/tonics monthly 0.5 2024-01-06 https://www.unitypharms.org/shop/p/ovary-acting-tea monthly 0.5 2025-08-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/ece8c57c-cba3-4f80-8765-e35789028d86/ovarytea2.jpg Shop -

They also made a tea in the same way to treat cough and congestion. These methods are still very acceptable uses for this plant. Today, we still use Curlycup Gumweed in the same way, especially to treat poison oak, poison ivy, and other skin conditions. Another wonderful way to process Curlycup Gumweed is to make an extract using the fresh leaves and flowering tops. This method is a great way to keep the medicine for long periods of time for use whenever needed. This extract has sedative, antispasmodic and expectorant properties that are used in modern herbal medicine for treating asthma, bronchitis, and the lingering dry cough that lasts a long time after a cold. When we have an unproductive cough like this, it can be hard on the body, leaving us tired and miserable. This Curlycup Gumweed extract helps us to cough up that phlegm that is buried deep within the lung to finally begin feeling better after a long lingering cold and cough. https://www.unitypharms.org/herbal-allies/st-johns-wort monthly 0.5 2020-12-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/1609266969444-H5A2YOEMV7HNMX8YUPQG/st+johns4.jpg Herbal Allies - St. john's Wort - Hypericum Perforatum When we talk about herbal medicines, it is common to have already heard of certain herbs in the mainstream. Some herbs have been researched more than others and there is so much proof of it’s effectiveness, that it can no longer be denied by the powers that be. St. John’s Wort is a good example of this. There have been so many studies, in fact, that you may find more herbal remedies on regular grocery shelves, such as St. John’s Wort, than you will of other just as potent herbs. Big Business would love to corner the market on such herbs, yet deny others because they are not as well known in the mainstream. That being said, St. John’s Wort is a highly effective remedy with a wide variety of uses. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/1609267569725-6JG0G6XJL0H5MRIGV5A5/st+johns1.jpg Herbal Allies - St. john's Wort - Happy Plant Not only is this plant a fantastic ally for depression, but it is also studied for it’s ability to treat Anxiety, symptoms of menopause, PMS, viral infections, seasonal effective disorder, smoking cessation, and more. St. John’s Wort can be used internally and externally. Externally, in a salve or balm, it has shown significant results in treating herpes virus outbreaks and can suppress the virus by taking it internally as well. All of this, along with how absolutely gorgeous this plant shows off in the garden, are all good reasons to Get To Know… St. John’s Wort. https://www.unitypharms.org/herbal-allies/valerian monthly 0.5 2020-11-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/1601648018619-M7TQFPN25P1RYZNSF60B/valerian1.jpg Herbal Allies - Valerian - Don’t be fooled by her sweet, sugary bloom Her feet (roots) have a stink that many refer to as old gym socks.

It can be used both internally and externally for a variety of ailments, especially related to the Respiratory System. Mullein has a long history of use to treat ailments of the lungs and is extremely powerful. Both the Mullein leaf and flower contain mucilage, which is soothing to irritated membranes within the lungs. Mullein also contains saponins, which can make a cough more productive to help get out the gunk stuck inside. Research of the plant has shown that Mullein has powerful anti-inflammatory effects and that infusions made from the flowers have strong antiviral properties as well. Mullein can be used for bronchitis, asthma, coughs due to air pollutants, pain from smoking too much, colds and upper respiratory infection. It can be drank as a tea, nourishing herbal infusion, a tincture and even smoked to relieve irritation of the respiratory mucus membranes. Mullein is said to completely control a hacking cough and is effective when rolled up in papers and smoked for asthma and spasmodic coughs in general. It can also be used topically for skin conditions, the flowers can be macerated in oil for ear infections and the tincture of the leaves is also excellent for migraines and gastrointestinal issues. Mullein is a powerful ally for the people and is definitely a wonderful plant to Get To Know. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/1604678155687-GB3QONWFP7TMK9C67RG3/mullein14thumbnail.jpg Herbal Allies - Mullein - Fuzzy Leaves Whatever your choice as to how to prepare your Mullein, just make sure you strain it very well. Mullein leaves are covered with tiny little hairs (a good doctrine of signature since they resemble the hairs in our lungs). If a tea or decoction is not strained well, they can irritate the throat when consumed. Also, you may want to make sure that mullein leaf does not irritate your skin before using it as a topical. This fuzzy ally is very easy to identify by it’s huge basal rosette, tall flower stalks and fuzzy hairs on the leaves and flowers. Before using any plant as medicine, make sure to identify thrice, and if you are not sure, don’t consume it! https://www.unitypharms.org/herbal-allies/california-poppy monthly 0.5 2020-10-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/1599235646853-TEPNHGJ7AYW4RM3UL8C6/poppies3.jpg Herbal Allies - California Poppy - strong Medicine California Poppy is excellent at helping us relax and calm down nervous tension. She is Soporific, so promotes healthy sleep, especially in relation to insomnia. Relieves agitation and is used as a Nervine. This tough lady also helps our entire body by promoting nutrition uptake at a cellular level as a Trophorestorative. Traditionally it has also been used to treat pain, anxiety, stress, neuralgia, migraines and depression. All above ground parts can be used in medicine making. *Although she is a Poppy, she is not the same as the Opium Poppy (Papaver Somniferum-a distant cousin) and is not addictive. Her naturally occurring alkaloids effect the same pain receptors in the brain, however, and produce mild sedative, anti-anxiety and pain-blocking properties. https://www.unitypharms.org/herbal-allies/lemon-balm monthly 0.5 2020-10-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/1602340528639-VKDTUCVWYL56ZOGYGQPG/lemonbalm1.jpg Herbal Allies - Lemon Balm - melissa officinalis Lemon Balm is a perennial herb in the Lamiaceaea (mint) family, native to Europe, Iran, Asia, and the Mediterranean Basin, and is now naturalized in the US. This aromatic ally has a beautiful lemony scent with a hint of mint. Her leaves are heart shaped, toothed and a little shiny, with a “quilted” or veined texture. The stem is square (like all mints), and she can grow up to 3 feet and spread around up to an equal length, depending on soil and light. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/1602342476123-11TF27ZILBJU3UFO5LAK/lemon%2Bbalm9.jpg Herbal Allies - Lemon Balm https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/1602342685698-MYUB7WY00QBVCQGG2S73/lemon%2Bbalm%2B6.jpg Herbal Allies - Lemon Balm - Stress Relief This joyful lady has been used for over 2000 years to reduce stress, promote sleep and relieve anxiety. It is also a member of the mint family, so it has also been used for improving appetite, easing discomfort and pain from stomach aches, colic and indigestion. She can be made into teas, tinctures, body oils, creams, and essential oils. You may notice how expensive an essential oil of Melissa Officinalis is, her volatile oils are actually difficult to capture because when touching her, they are rubbed off quickly. The scent of Lemon Balm is truly fantastic and can ease stress just by smelling her lovely leaves. She is a wonderful lady for anxiety and stress and her oils are valuable in that way as well. She is also fantastic in the kitchen, and has been used in flavoring ice cream, teas (both hot and cold), fish dishes, candies, salads and more. Lemon Balm has also been used for atopic dermatitis because of her anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and immunomodulatory effects. I recommend a body oil infusion for this and other skin irritations. With her versatility, both internally and externally, she is a highly sought after lady and there is no question as to why.

It is an effective aid for treating back pain, osteoarthritis, sprains, strains, skin wounds, burns and bruises. This tough ally can be used fresh as a poultice, dried for use in salves and creams or even tinctured, although there are high amounts of alkaloids within this plant, so it is not recommended today, to take internally. In the past, and sometimes still, it has been used internally for gastritis, cough, peptic ulcers, rheumatism and more. *Comfrey heals skin extremely fast at a cellular level. It is not recommended for deep flesh wounds that have become infected, as it can heal over the top too quickly and trap infection below. Always make sure a wound is infection free before using Comfrey topically. https://www.unitypharms.org/herbal-allies/yarrow monthly 0.5 2020-10-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/1599164120185-3HELX2ZCN398OZ7NC22H/20200729_183012.jpg Herbal Allies - Yarrow Fresh Yarrow Harvest https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/1599169512471-1LTUQ86DP6IEBMMK7KWR/yarrow4.jpg Herbal Allies - Yarrow Yarrow in the wild https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/1599169557696-USN5H6KQXE4GJVFPIQ30/yarrow+leaf.jpg Herbal Allies - Yarrow Young Yarrow Leaf https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/1601657792710-KUDJ5WQL30M8S8R1NJ59/20200731_084109.jpg Herbal Allies - Yarrow - tincture Our Yarrow Tinctures are made with only fresh plant material, either ethically wild-harvested or grown ourselves.

Mugwort grows all around the world, and many cultures have used it in different ways. Practitioners of magic have long used Mugwort in their work for lucid dreaming, astral projection, psychic work and more. In Nepal, it is used as an offering to the Gods, as incense, and hung outside of homes and as a medicinal. The Aztecs used it as incense and considered it sacred. Native American tribes have used Mugwort for purification of physical and environmental space. Mugwort has been used all over the world, in many different cultures to ward off evil spirits. We keep it hanging around different areas for the same sort of work, to keep spaces clear of negative energies, as well as using it for Dream Work. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/1602430385470-ZGMKI2A45ESYZ8SXTQQZ/mugwort10.jpg Herbal Allies - Mugwort Young Mugwort in the Garden https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/1602438642320-FGEWJU6RF7XUC929ILKY/mugwort6.jpg Herbal Allies - Mugwort - edible and medicinal Mugwort has long been used in culinary arts for flavoring rice and other foods. It was used to flavor ale long before hops was recognized. Traditionally, in medicine making, it has been drunk as a tea to promote Lucid Dreaming. It can be made in to a tincture for the same use, as well as by women to help regulate moon cycles and easing the symptoms associated, including the symptoms of menopause. Be aware, however that Mugwort is not to be used during pregnancy since it can stimulate the uterus and bring on menses, and lead to premature labor. Mugwort also increases blood circulation, lymphatic function, and supports tired, achy muscles. Keep in mind that Mugwort is a powerful medicinal, and should be used sparingly. In excessive doses, it can be harmful to the liver and cause nausea. Mugwort is a member of the Daisy family, so if you are allergic to Daisies, please don’t use Mugwort. Always do your research and make sure that any herb you choose to support your body or mind, is right for you. https://www.unitypharms.org/herbal-allies/catnip monthly 0.5 2020-10-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/1602164936608-C0MREBLEZDEVHPF2P0P0/catnip1.jpg Herbal Allies - Catnip https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/1602182229028-6IV0RNEUTC45O2F8WL9E/catnipunitypharms.jpg Herbal Allies - Catnip https://www.unitypharms.org/herbal-allies/nettleleaf-horsemint monthly 0.5 2020-10-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/1602164517899-1HSG8K6YCEGWG9EXG2A5/horsemint%2Bharvest4.jpg Herbal Allies - Nettleleaf Horsemint Nettleleaf Horsemint Wild Harvest https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f40341fda5342557d3a0e90/1602162295439-2H5VUNGOBBJFKR20NXKC/horsemint1.jpg Herbal Allies - Nettleleaf Horsemint - AGASTACHE URTICIFOLIA A perennial herb in the Lamiaceaea (mint) family, Native to Western North America, with a tall, erect stem, that can grow to more than 4 feet.
