Snippet of the Month: Three Trees



My name is Yvonne also known as Indu. I didn’t go the College route and decided to learn from the streets for the past 30 plus years.   I have been a practicing License Massage Therapist for over 19 years.  Then the past 2-4 years I have been expanding my knowledge with  Yoga, Aromatherapy and Herbs.  I hope you enjoy my blog on some of things I have been learning along the way...Namaste Indu




Tree #1 I rescued Rusty about 2 years ago and it was also about the same time I started my Medicinal Herb Classes. Now, at the time, this “City Girl” was only at a Girl Scout level about plants more or less how to identify them.  So, when  Rusty began eating the leaves from this mysterious plant I had to find out if it was poisonous, medicinal or just something to eat like grass.  This has been a 2 year adventure and I didn’t think it was going to be that hard to identify, but it was.  So...here is what I found out about Rusty’s Favorite Plant.  Click Here!




Tree #2 has been the Texas State Tree since 1919 and adopted as the State Health Tree in 2001.  Fossil remains tell us that this tree has been around long before humans.  It is our joy for baking, shading, snacking and it has funny looking flowers.   Gardeners and Farmers love this tree as much as a Herbalist.  Homeowners Associations could possibly ban this tree for its growing size of 100-140 feet.   I’m not a Tree Hugger, but this tree could possibly turn me into one.  Click Here!







Tree #3  has been the oldest ally tree for us humans.  They have found it on diggings at Stone Age Sites, Hippocrates used it and we modern man use it to this day. Click Here!





Namaste...Indu

I have all kinds of goodies on my Facebook Page, so come take a peek!
