Hawthorn is a highly renowned tree in Ireland because of the association with the Fairy Folk - the Sidhe. Hawthorn is part of our myths and folklore and also makes a wonderful and potent medicine for the heart. If you would like to know more about it, see below.

Hawthorn growing alone is regarded as a Fairy tree and great caution must be taken - do not damage or harm it or remove any part of such a tree.
Hawthorns in the hedgerow offer great heart medicine. You can take a Hawthorn medicine for courage, to feel brave and face up to your challenges. The thorns of the Hawthorn represent protection so that you can open your heart to others without fear of being taken advantage of.
Hawthorn is also a great cardio-vascular and heart tonic and can help with issues such as cholesterol, angina, high blood and low blood pressure, poor circulation and other cardio issues. Hawthorn is extremely safe and gentle as it is very nourishing and toning of the whole system, improving elasticity of the vessels and toning the tissues. As Hawthorn can also help to break up fat he can be seen as a digestive herb as well. Hawthorn can also be regarded as a nervine as he has a calming and soothing effect on the nervous system and often sleep is improved.
As Hawthorn is a nourishing herb the medicine does not remain for long in the body and therefore Hawthorn is slow acting and gentle. Do not take Hawthorn if you are taking beta-blockers or blood thinning medication. ALWAYS INFORM YOUR DOCTOR AND SEEK YOUR DOCTOR'S ADVICE IF YOU DECIDE TO INCLUDE HAWTHORN FOR YOUR HEART HEALTH
To make my medicine I collected the blossoms and young leaves in May and made a tincture and later in the year, August and September, I collected the berries and made a tincture. I have now combined the two tinctures to make a whole plant medicine. A generally recommended dose would be 2-4ml two to three times a day in a little water.
REMEMBER - ALWAYS SEEK YOUR DOCTOR'S ADVICE IF YOU DECIDE TO INCLUDE HAWTHORN FOR YOUR HEART HEALTH.
