Yarrow Tea:
A simple and effective way to harness the benefits of yarrow is by making a tea. To do so, steep 1-2 teaspoons of dried yarrow leaves or flowers in hot water for about 5-10 minutes. This tea can help with digestion, stress relief, or as a soothing remedy for colds.
Topical Application for Wound Healing:
To treat wounds or cuts, crush fresh yarrow leaves and apply them directly to the affected area, or use a yarrow-infused oil or salve. This can help stop bleeding and promote healing.
Yarrow Tincture:
Yarrow tincture, made by soaking fresh yarrow in alcohol, can be taken in small doses to help with inflammation, circulation, and digestive issues.
Yarrow Essential Oil:
The essential oil of yarrow is another way to tap into its healing properties. It can be diluted with a carrier oil and massaged onto the skin to reduce inflammation or improve circulation. It can also be used in aromatherapy to calm the mind.
