Thyme

Description

Thyme (thymus vulgaris)

Cooking: Great on eggs, potatoes, meat, and sauces

Medicinal: Thyme is the ultimate herb to go to when a respiratory infection or urinary infection will not go away! It has a strong affinity for these areas and is antimicrobial — so will help kill off the infection. It is a great expectorant, so will help clear the airways and support the body in coughing out mucous. It is also anti-spasmodic so will help relax muscle spasms and tension. It may help with dysbiosis in the gut! Used for parasites and candida! Thyme can be very drying long term, so best used as a bridge to fight off initial infection, and then support with gentler herbs after alongside a probiotic!

** spiritually, thyme was used to bring courage to knights departing for battle! Thymus, its latin name, means “courage” in Greek. They would receive scarves with sprigs of thyme embroidered within from their woman!! Thyme also has a huge connection to the fairy realm, and in some traditions it was believed drinking the tea would help you to see nymphs and faeries! It was also used for helping with nightmares.
