Healing is a very magickal process. It is fascinating to think of the energy exchange between each cell in the body has physical issues arise and as the body fights them off. In recent years, we've come full circle to using herbal healing remedies again instead of relying on pharmaceuticals. With this change, the modern witch is allowed the chance to create his or her own remedies to heal themselves and others, as well as use their energy to empower their creations to add their healing power to that of the herbs. With this power comes responsibility so please use caution with the remedies listed below.
