Out here, between the trees and the hum of the earth, there’s a cottage where old ways are honored and nature still has a voice.
There was a time not so long ago when I started to feel like a stranger in my own body.
After being diagnosed with postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS), I had no choice but to slow down—and pay attention. The dizziness, the fatigue, the racing heart …It made me question everything I knew about “health.” That diagnosis didn’t just change how I moved through out the day—It changed how I saw the world.
I began deep diving into the things we put into our body, onto our skin, and even around our home. What I found was unsettling—but it also lit a fire in me. A quiet determination to return to something more natural, more nourishing. Something ancestral. Something real.
That journey led me to create Sandrock’s Cottage and Apothecary.
This blog is where I want to share more than just recipes and remedies—it’s where I’ll tell you the story behind them. My hope is that you’ll see yourself in these posts. Whether you’re navigating chronic illness, searching for balance or just drawn to a slower, more intentional life…you are welcome here.
This isn’t about perfection. It is about coming home to ourselves and to the land.
Thanks for being here
