{About}
hello! Welcome to Boreal Medicinals... a side branch & center heart of Seven Stones Holistic Health. Boreal Medicinals was born after a decade or two of wildcrafting and kitchen witching. Each product is formulated and handcrafted by Shelly with only pure, organic, and wildcrafted plants, oils, and earth ingredients & elements. All are infused with spirit, and contain the medicinal knowledge and wisdom of centuries.
Shelly is a professionally registered herbalist with 3000+ hours of clinical experience and 3700+ hours of educational study in the field of herbal and holistic medicine. She is also currently in year 4 of a full-time diploma program for Sequential Heilkunst Medicine.
This schooling and clinical stuff aside, Shelly finds her heart connection through her footprints on Mother Earth and her soul comfort with our Father.
Shelly and her man-she-adores live both in Flagstaff County (East Central Alberta) and County of St. Paul (Northeast Alberta), the latter being the source of many a wildcrafted boreal thing. She has two Suns who are the light of her heart and who captain their own young adult lives now.

pure & organic herbal apotheke
apotheke
[apoˈteːkə]
feminine noun Word forms: Apotheke genitive , Apotheken plur
(= Hausapotheke) medicine chest or cupboard; (= Reiseapotheke, Autoapotheke) first-aid box

In Latin it became apotheca
pure & organic, quality & potency
... are the key cornerstones behind my formulations.
All of my medicinal formulations are crafted with organic or wildcrafted herbs. Oils and beeswax are organic when possible, and pure always. Alcohol is organic cane alcohol.
Oil infusions are prepared first with an overnight alcohol intermediary in order to facilitate the extraction of all plant compounds possible, then infused at very low temperature (95 to 100 degrees fahrenheit) over 48 hours. (In this process, all alcohol is removed as well.). This process sets my products apart from most others out there and creates the highest quality and potency.
From my heart to yours, I hope you cultivate spaces to go slow as well.
