Count the bottles
Still buying more bottles while the problem keeps coming back?
Count the bottles in your cabinet tonight. Then count how many of the problems they were bought for are actually gone. One complaint, one bottle. Then a second bottle for the side effect of the first. The cabinet fills, and the complaints stay, because a cabinet full of products is still not a plan for the pattern underneath.
Fatigue, poor sleep, gut trouble and inflammation feed each other
A fix aimed at one of them, alone, rarely holds
The answer is not a 12th bottle. It is a connected plan
This book works the other way: it starts from the signal, looks at the day that produces it, and hands you the remedy, the meal and the habit together, with page numbers.
Easy to use, not just nice to own
The pages at the back that make it easy to use.
Lots of books hold remedies. What makes this one easy to use are the pages at the back. They help you find the right answer in under a minute:
The Glossary of 25 Essential Herbs
Uses, preparation and cautions for each one, so you learn the ingredient itself, not just the recipe it sits in.
The Complete Healing Protocols
Not single remedies but full plans, connecting every step from the first symptom to the lasting habit.
The Common Ailments Section
The plain-spoken chapter that starts from what hurts and lists several remedies to try for each.
The Quick-Reference Index
From symptom to numbered remedy in seconds, even with one hand holding a thermometer.
Why this book exists
How families kept a healthy home before there was a pharmacy.
Some books teach herbs. This one teaches the life around them: what to brew when a cough starts, what to cook when everything feels inflamed, how to sleep, breathe and slow down, and even how to ferment, compost and harvest rainwater the way our great-grandparents did.
The Ancient Book of Remedies collects it all: 662 full-color pages and 400+ remedies, recipes and practices, drawing on the living tradition of natural healing that the great teachers of natural health have kept alive, and organized by the problem in front of you. Independently written and published.
In the pages that follow you will walk through all 4 of its worlds, and read complete remedies, recipes and practices straight from the book: 3 open on the page, and 7 more a click away.
The part that matters most
What your mother and grandmother knew, written down.
Readers keep saying the same thing in different words: “remedies my mom and grandmother used on us as children.” “Things our great-grandmothers knew to do.” Whole households once ran on this knowledge, and almost none of it was ever written down. This book is for everything they never got to write down.
The remedies, dishes and ferments they made from memory, finally set down with exact measurements and clear steps
The daily rhythms that held it together: what was brewed in the morning, cooked at noon, and sipped before bed
A way to bring that same steadiness into your own home, and pass it on instead of losing it
Even if they are not by your side anymore, you can still live the way they taught. And this time, it will not be lost.
Not another herbal remedies book
Remedies are only 1 of its 4 worlds.
A remedy book answers one question: what can I make for this problem? This book answers a bigger one: how do I run my health, my kitchen and my home differently every day? Herbal remedies, healing food, sleep and stress practices, and the self-sufficient home, connected in one 662-page system.
What is inside
What is inside each of the 4 worlds.
Herbal remedies are only the beginning. Here is the actual map of what you are holding, from its real table of contents.
World 01
Natural Healing
Herbal remedies, homemade antibiotic formulas, respiratory support, pain and inflammation, immune boosters. The core 160 remedies, organized by ailment.
World 02
Food & Gut Wellness
Anti-inflammatory dishes, gut-healing recipes, detoxifying drinks and smoothies. Because the kitchen table is the first pharmacy.
World 03
Everyday Wellness
Women’s health, seasonal wellness, hormonal balance, better sleep and daily vitality, woven into routines you can actually keep.
World 04
Mind & Lifestyle
Stress management, mindfulness practices, movement, sustainable living. The part most remedy books skip, and the part that makes the rest stick.
Here is how you will use it
Open it anywhere. Find exactly what you need.
This book is organized by the problem in front of you. Let’s say the office cold has finally caught you, and the cough is keeping you up. You open the respiratory section and the Licorice Root and Marshmallow Root Cough Syrup sounds right. It is on page 129: ingredients, exact measurements, preparation, dosage and storage, all on one page.
And when the problem is not one cough but a whole run-down season, the other worlds take over: the anti-inflammatory dinner on page 265, the 10 slow breaths on page 310, the golden milk on page 248. One book, working on the whole day.
Real pages, photographed from the book itself.

The Ancient Book of Remedies662 full-color pages · 400+ remedies, recipes and practices · 4 worlds in 1 · 6 free gifts
Most readers follow the same 3 stages, in the same order. Most recipes need one pot or one jar, and under 20 minutes. Here is what that actually looks like.
Step One
Handle the immediate problem
The remedies world comes first: look up what hurts, follow the exact formula, and handle tonight. The glossary of 25 essential herbs teaches every ingredient properly, and basic equipment starts at around $37 to $75, most of it already in your kitchen.
Step Two
Support the body every day
Then the food and wellness worlds take over: a lemon and ginger tonic in the morning (p. 291), an anti-inflammatory dinner (p. 265), golden milk while the evening settles (p. 248). The complete protocols connect first symptom to lasting habit.
Step Three
Build the lifestyle around it
Finally the home itself joins in: sleep and stress practices, living ferments, compost, rainwater harvesting, even your own bees. A household that quietly runs on the book.

Elderberry Syruppage 210
The herbal classic
When to use this remedy: The immune-season staple, made at home for a fraction of the store price.
Ingredients
1 cup dried elderberries
4 cups water
1 cup honey
Optional: a cinnamon stick or a few cloves
Instructions for preparation
Simmer the elderberries in the water until reduced by about half.
Strain into a bowl, pressing the berries.
Cool to lukewarm, stir in the honey.
Pour into a clean glass bottle or jar.
Dosage and usage: 1 to 2 tablespoons daily during cold and flu season. Refrigerate; freeze cubes for longer storage.
Tips and cautions: Never give honey to children under 1 year old.
Beet Kvasspage 276
From the gut-healing world
When to use this remedy: The traditional Eastern European fermented tonic: earthy, tangy, rich in nutrients, enzymes and probiotics, made from 3 ingredients.
Ingredients
2 medium beets, scrubbed and cut into large cubes (unpeeled)
1 tablespoon sea salt
4 cups filtered water
Optional: garlic, mustard seeds, dill or parsley
Instructions for preparation
Place the beet cubes in a clean quart jar, about one-third full.
Add the optional flavorings.
Dissolve the salt in the water and pour over until fully submerged, leaving an inch of space.
Cover loosely and ferment at room temperature until deep red and pleasantly tangy, then refrigerate.
Dosage and usage: A small glass with meals. Keeps up to a month refrigerated; the flavor matures over time.
Tips and cautions: Ferments are alive: use clean equipment and refrigerate once tangy.
Deep Breathing Exercisespage 310
From the mind world
The zero-ingredient remedy: consciously slowing and deepening the breath to switch the body from stress mode to rest mode. The foundation practice of the whole mindfulness part.
The practice
Sit or lie down somewhere quiet, back straight, hands relaxed.
Inhale slowly through the nose, letting the belly rise, not just the chest.
Hold the full breath for a moment.
Exhale slowly and completely.
Repeat for 5 to 10 unhurried minutes.
Tips from the book
Practice at the same time each day so it becomes a habit.
Pair it with a peaceful scene in your mind: a wave of calm moving through you.
A quiet, comfortable setting makes the habit stick.
Turmeric and Ginger Golden Milkpage 248
From the food world
When to use this remedy: The warm evening latte that fights inflammation while it relaxes you.
Ingredients
1 teaspoon turmeric powder
1/2 teaspoon grated fresh ginger or ginger powder
1 cup milk or plant milk
Honey to taste, a pinch of black pepper

Warm the milk gently in a small saucepan.
Whisk in the turmeric, ginger and black pepper.
Sweeten with honey and drink warm.
Dosage and usage: Perfect for relaxing evenings or a healthful start to the day.
Tips and cautions: The pinch of black pepper helps your body absorb the turmeric.
Matcha Chia Puddingpage 258
From the food world
When to use this remedy: An energizing make-ahead breakfast: antioxidant-rich matcha meets the fiber and omega-3s of chia, for a steady release of energy.
Ingredients
2 tablespoons matcha green tea powder
1 cup milk or plant milk
1/2 cup chia seeds
1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional)

Dosage and usage: A healthy breakfast or refreshing snack.
Tips and cautions: Matcha contains caffeine; keep servings moderate later in the day.
Dark Chocolate Avocado Moussepage 265
From the food world
When to use this remedy: A rich, velvety dessert built on good fats and antioxidants instead of regret. Yes, this is in a health book, on purpose.
Ingredients
2 ripe avocados, pitted and scooped
1/2 cup high-quality dark chocolate, melted
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
A pinch of salt

Lemon and Ginger Tonicpage 291
From the detox world
When to use this remedy: A vibrant, invigorating tonic that combines the cleansing power of lemon with the warming, digestive benefits of ginger.
Ingredients
4 cups water
2 inches fresh ginger root, peeled and thinly sliced
Juice of 2 lemons
2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
Optional: a pinch of cayenne pepper
Instructions for preparation
Bring the water to a boil, add the ginger, and simmer 15 to 20 minutes.
Strain into a heat-resistant pitcher.
Stir in the lemon juice and sweetener; add the cayenne if using.
Cool, then chill or serve over ice.
Dosage and usage: Drink chilled or warm to support digestion and circulation.
Tips and cautions: The optional cayenne adds heat and circulation benefits.
Hibiscus Iced Teapage 300
From the drinks world
When to use this remedy: A ruby-red, vitamin-C-rich pitcher for hot afternoons: tangy, cooling, and a genuinely healthy stand-in for sugary drinks.
Ingredients
4 cups water
1/2 cup dried hibiscus flowers
1/4 cup honey or sugar, to taste
Juice of 1 lime
Mint leaves or an orange slice to garnish
Instructions for preparation
Bring the water to a boil and steep the hibiscus flowers.
Sweeten while still warm, then stir in the lime juice.
Chill thoroughly.
Dosage and usage: Serve over ice with mint or orange. Keeps up to 5 days refrigerated, airtight.
Tips and cautions: It stains beautifully and permanently: mind the tablecloth.
Herbal Tea Ritualspage 319
From the mind world
Turning a cup of tea into a small evening ceremony: the brewing, the quiet corner and the slow first sip are as much of the remedy as the herbs are.
The practice
Choose the herb for tonight’s need: chamomile to settle, peppermint to refresh.
Pour just-boiled water over the herbs and steep 5 to 10 minutes, covered.
While it steeps, prepare a quiet spot: a comfortable chair, soft light.
Sit with the cup. Notice the aroma before the first sip, then drink slowly.
Tips from the book
Keep the cup covered while steeping so the essential oils stay in.
No screens. The ritual is the remedy.
Crafting Herbal Dream Pillowspage 439
From the sleep world
The old bedtime craft, revived: small sachets of calming dried herbs that release their soothing aroma under your pillow all night.
The practice
Blend calming dried herbs: lavender, chamomile and hops are the classics.
Fill a small breathable fabric sachet with the blend.
Tuck it under or beside your pillow.
Refresh the herbs when the scent fades.
Tips from the book
A lovely craft to make with children for their own beds.
Choose a natural, breathable fabric so the aroma comes through.

World 02 up close
Your everyday meals can help you feel better.
Anti-inflammatory dishes, gut-healing ferments, detox drinks: the food world turns your 3 meals a day into a simple way to stay well. And the shopping list stays humble: a core pantry of about 20 ingredients powers most of the 400+ formulas, and the glossary of 25 essential herbs teaches each one properly.
Anti-inflammatory dishes from breakfast to dessert (pp. 234 to 265)
Living ferments, from beet kvass to kombucha (pp. 274 to 283)
Detoxifying drinks and smoothies for lighter days (pp. 289 to 300)
Almost everything comes from the grocery store or your own garden
A day on the system
Small habits for your whole day, morning to night.
The book reads like a well-run day. A lemon and ginger tonic while the kettle is still warm (p. 291). A dinner that works while you eat it (p. 265). A golden milk while the evening settles (p. 248). Ten slow breaths before bed (p. 310) and a dream pillow under your ear (p. 439).
Morning: tonics and vitality blends to start clean
Daytime: meals and drinks that work while you enjoy them
Evening: teas, golden milk and wind-down rituals
Night: sleep practices and the dream pillow craft
Small practices, kept daily, that add up to the way you want to feel.
You do not just own remedies. You run the day differently: the morning tonic, the dinner that works, the golden milk, the 10 slow breaths.

Because free is scattered, and this is a system. A search hands you 40 contradicting blog posts with no dosages and no safety notes, whether it is a rough night or a quiet Sunday planning your week. Here you open the book to the problem in front of you and get several remedies with exact steps, amounts, timing and storage, plus the glossary, the protocols and the quick-reference index behind them. Free information is cheap. An organized system you can rely on is what you are actually buying.
I already take medications. Is this safe for me?⌄
Hear this clearly: we will never ask you to stop a medication your doctor prescribed. These formulas are traditional, educational support that works alongside your care, never a replacement for it, and nothing in this book or on this page is medical advice or intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease. If your condition improves, only your doctor can decide whether anything should be lowered or stopped. We are not against medicine. We are one thousand percent for it, and for emergencies or anything serious, see a doctor or a hospital first, always. The book is written with care, with cautions and full ingredient lists throughout, and we encourage you to speak with your doctor before use, especially if you are pregnant, nursing, caring for children, or managing a chronic condition.
Will I actually use it, or will it collect dust?⌄
Happily, it works both ways. Readers call the structure “brilliant” because it is organized by the problem in front of you, so it earns its place on the counter the first week: “go right to the problem you are dealing with and get different remedies to try.” And it is always with you: open it on your phone in the kitchen or at the store, and find any remedy in seconds.
What exactly do I get?⌄
The complete PDF, all 662 full-color pages, with everything inside it: the four worlds (natural healing, food and gut wellness, everyday wellness, and mind and lifestyle), the herb glossary and the quick-reference index. Your 6 free gifts are delivered digitally: the Wellness Vault with its 100s of hours of video lectures, the ready-to-print herbal guides, and 4 complete ebooks (Holistic Home Spa, Herbal Emotional Rescue, Cooking with Healing Herbs and The Green Cleaning Revolution). Your PDF and the access instructions come by email right after your order.
How do I get the Wellness Vault bonus?⌄
Once you complete your order, you will receive an email with everything you need to access it, and the instructions with your access code are also printed inside the book. Create a free account, enter the code, and the vault unlocks on any device, with your place saved as you watch.
Who wrote this book?⌄
It is written by Tamsin Meadowcroft, who has devoted herself to rediscovering and preserving the healing wisdom passed down through generations, and published by A Better You Everyday Publications, an independent family publisher. Every remedy is drawn from documented traditional herbal practice, written out with exact measurements and safety notes, and reviewed line by line before print.
How do I get my PDF?⌄
Right after your order, we email you a link to download your PDF. It works on any phone, tablet or computer, and you can print any page you like.
Can I get the hardcover instead?⌄
Yes. The full-color hardcover is $50 and ships in the USA only. See the hardcover here. It opens in a new tab, so you keep this page.
Do I need to follow the whole lifestyle for this book to be useful?⌄
Not at all. Start with tonight’s problem: make one recipe, try one remedy, keep one evening practice. The four worlds are there when you want them, not a program you have to complete.
