Some of Hildegard's ideas were a bit unorthodox but many are still worthy of consideration–well, some are, anyway. I’m not so sure about this one: “Earthworms have good viriditas and should be smoked over a hot fire until they die, mixed with wheat flour, oak wood, vinegar, and wine. These are not to be eaten, but rather placed on the stomach of one who has scrofula (swollen glands)” Image from Hildegard's Gift.

St. Hildegard of Bingen, whose feast day we celebrate with vigor every September 17, was not only a brilliant composer, artist, and visionary, she was also an herbalist. Her belief in the “greening of man,” or viriditas as she called it, led her to trust that God had given mankind herbs, spices, and foods to serve our bodies and keep us not only healthy but full of joy and peace. What a lovely idea from a truly remarkable woman, living in an age where women were seen primarily as accessories created to adorn men, creatures to woo, or saintly idols to be placed on a pedestal and thought of while on crusade.

Some of my favorite natural home remedies that I like to keep on hand during the cold and flu season (like Elderberry Syrup or Cool Vibes Vapor Rub Jr.) can be a bit time consuming to make and are better made beforehand. In the heat of the moment, it’s nice to have a simple, easy to make remedy that can help give some relief while recovering from a cold or the flu. Medicinal herbal infusions, also known as herbal tea, can provide a lot of relief for many cold and flu symptoms and some herbs can even help boost your immunities to help you kick your illness to the curb faster. Here's our top 10 recipes!
