Attention: Correction for page 134
Due to a printing error, the exercise for lemon balm on page 134 should state:
“For this exercise, I will let you decide which herbal preparation you want to make with this herb, and whether you want to use fresh, dried, or both. Keep a detailed journal on your experience. Additionally, you can either grow seeds or plant the herb in a pot for your own garden. Research its germination requirements and growing conditions.”
