Three Herbal Preparations Every Mom Needs to Know

When your child gets sick, it’s easy to feel helpless. But sometimes the best remedies are the simple, old-fashioned ones already in your kitchen. 🌿

In this episode of the Joyfully Prepared Podcast, Wendi Bergin shares the three herbal preparations every mom needs to know:

🧅 Onion Poultice – a soothing chest remedy that helps ease congestion and promote rest.

🧄 Garlic Honey – nature’s antibiotic paired with honey’s throat-soothing sweetness.

🍵 Herbal Teas – calming, immune-supporting blends like chamomile, peppermint, sage, and thyme.

Along the way, Wendi tells the story of how she supported her daughter through a tough illness with these time-tested remedies (plus a few extras like elderberry syrup, mullein, and manuka honey). You’ll hear the practical tips, the “mom hacks” (hello, freeze-dried onions at 4am!), and the encouragement you need to feel more confident caring for your family naturally.
