Mullein Elixir
One of the most popular herbal remedies used in the treatment of lung and respiratory system issues is Mullein (Verbascum thapsus). This basal rosette of spiralic, broad, hair-covered and lung-shaped leaves are a popular tonic for supporting the lungs and respiratory system that can be used acutely or over time.
As a moistening, demulcent and relaxant expectorant, Mullein’s medicinal actions are suited to a dry, irritated mucous membrane with spasm in the respiratory system which is commonly associated with a hard and persistent cough, excessive discharge or build-up of mucous in the nose and throat, bronchitis, asthma, colds, and pleurisy.
Mullein’s mildly relaxant properties combined with its bronchiole-opening abilities can ease tightness which can be useful when breathing is shallow, constricted and irritable.
In addition to supporting those suffering with respiratory infections and breathing difficulties, Mullein can also be used to support people trying to reduce or quit smoking while helping to restore lung tissue and repair mucous membranes.
Energetically, herbalist Sajah Popham suggests that this plant has a strong relationship to the element of Air, and as such is indicated for overly intellectual individuals - especially those who are hard on themselves. A core pattern of Mullein is to soften what has turned hard, making this plant a potential support to people who have tight, restricted thought patterns that turn against themselves in a self-critical manner.
Made with home grown Mullein, this remedy is particularly special to me through the relationship I have built observing and nurturing the plant, but also as an individual who works to balance my strong Air element affinities.
Ingredients: Homegrown Verbascum thapsus, vodka, local raw honey.
Use: Use intuitively. 1-3 droppers 3x a day for acute physical support. Small/ 5 x drop doses can be used for spiritual/ emotional support throughout the day.
