Apothecary Alchemy
Before the pharmaceutical business took over how humans heal their bodies, herbs, flowers, roots and plants were used to heal our ailments. Today we rely on pharmaceuticals because it fuels business, resulting in a devastating loss in the knowledge of our natural world and its healing properties. This blog aims to look at what Earth has already provided us and identify which plant and how nature can heal us.
This is a blog that has a target audience of those interested in alternative medicine, holistic lifestyle, naturopathy, herbalism, gardening, foraging and similar topics. This would aim to build a community of members who may share their own experiences and knowledge of the same topic to support each other in the community. This would contain as many references to naturopaths and alternative medicine people with the right accreditations since it is known that many people challenge this community due to the preference of medical advice. Social media platforms would also be linked to support the members of the community in different ways, with some platforms suiting some more than others, without being left out. It would be great to network on LinkedIn and connect with some of the well known alternative medicine workers, naturopaths, herbalists etc to have them feature on the blog itself, or perhaps develop into a podcast.

The blog examples here are just that, examples, I am not currently a good writer or journalist, but the posts would focus on topics much like this, as well as how to grow your own food, how to harvest the right foods at the right time of years, fermentation of foods, making your own tinctures or everyday items from natural products and the many health benefits of those also, and may even feature some good recipes to use all those foods that have been grown or gathered with nutritional ideals at the centre.
