Get ready for one of our most meaningful conversations yet. Dr. Chloe sits down with Elizabeth DeLuca—the powerhouse advocate whose late-night PubMed searches, cross-country lab visits, and “help-the-babies” fund-raising campaigns helped push Capsida's CAP-002 gene-therapy program all the way to FDA clearance. We unpack how this first-in-human trial aims to restore the missing STXBP1 protein, why the same technology could leapfrog into other rare epilepsies, and how a mother's promise to her daughter is changing the face of science.Quick linksCapsida CAP-002 press release – details on the FDA-cleared trial and how it works: https://capsida.com/capsida-receives-fda-ind-clearance-for-its-first-in-class-iv-administered-gene-therapy-for-stxbp1-developmental-and-epileptic-encephalopathy/ capsida.comSTXBP1 Foundation – join the registry, learn about natural-history studies, or donate: https://www.stxbp1disorders.org/ STXBP1 FoundationSupport our mission by shopping the herbal lines that fund this podcast and Remy's ongoing care: • Radical Roots Herbs – whole-plant, spagyric CBD formulas: https://RadicalRootsHerbs.com • Noxi Herbs – modular Chinese-herb system for women's hormones: https://NoxiHerbs.comHeads-up: We speak candidly about seizures, neuro-degeneration, and child loss.

In this post, I'm delving into a concept that has been on my mind for the past few months. I call this concept “diagnosis identity,” and it's about the nature of the human condition, the role of suffering in our lives, and how we navigate it. It's about what we choose to do with suffering and illness, and a call to rise above our suffering, learn from it, and ultimately not allow it to take over our lives and become a part of our identity. In this piece, we'll explore: Why suffering is both inevitable and potentially transformative The difference between trauma and the normal struggles of life The cultural trend of over-identifying with a diagnosis and how it can become an obstacle to healing The alchemical idea of transforming poison into medicine A vitalist approach to healing through strength, forgiveness, and meaning How practitioners can spot “stuck” cases and support deeper transformation   ———————————— CONNECT WITH SAJAH AND WHITNEY ———————————— To get free in depth mini-courses and videos, visit our blog at:  http://www.evolutionaryherbalism.com   Get daily inspiration and plant wisdom on our Facebook and Instagram channels: http://www.facebook.com/EvolutionaryHerbalism https://www.instagram.com/evolutionary_herbalism/   Be sure to subscribe to our YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyP63opAmcpIAQg1M9ShNSQ   Get a free 5-week course when you buy a copy of the book, Evolutionary Herbalism: https://www.evolutionaryherbalism.com/evolutionary-herbalism-book/   Shop our herbal products:  https://naturasophiaspagyrics.com/   ———————————— ABOUT THE PLANT PATH ———————————— The Plant Path is a window into the world of herbal medicine.

Alexandre Chut gosta de lembrar que a natureza é uma mestra silenciosa — e que há muito mais sabedoria em um solo vivo ou em uma árvore bem enraizada do que em muitas certezas humanas. Talvez por isso sua caminhada tenha sido marcada por um olhar integrador, onde ciência, espiritualidade e ecologia deixam de ser opostos para formar uma mesma paisagem de sentido. Psicólogo por formação e doutor em acupuntura pela World Federation of Chinese Medicine, em Pequim, Alexandre é também astrólogo reconhecido, ativista ambiental, terapeuta corporal e palestrante internacional. Com passagens por mais de vinte países, ele leva em sua bagagem não apenas títulos ou técnicas, mas experiências vividas que atravessam o corpo, o espírito e o planeta. Ao longo de mais de três décadas, ele plantou quase 3 milhões de árvores — sempre com os pés na terra e o coração voltado à cura, não apenas do ser humano, mas da relação entre o Ser e o mundo. Seu trabalho se apoia em uma medicina que escuta, em uma psicologia que sente e em uma espiritualidade que toca o invisível. Neste papo com o podcast "45 do Primeiro Tempo", Alexandre Chut contou sua história de vida, trouxe seu olhar sobre este momento que estamos atravessando como humanidade e foi categórico: “Curar é tornar a pessoa consciente”.

Hey Heal Squad! In Part 2 of our incredible conversation with Dr. Christopher Motley, we're diving deeper into the hidden wisdom of the body and the overlooked signals it's constantly sending us. From ruptured ulcers linked to emotional stress to the healing power of acupressure and organ communication, this episode is packed with ancient practices and practical insights. Maria shares her own experiences using acupressure to relieve symptoms instantly, and Dr. Motley breaks down how organs like the spleen, liver, and bladder reveal dysfunction through symptoms like cracked heels, hip pain, constipation, and more.. PLUS, we explore how trauma is stored in your connective tissue (yup, emotional detox is real!), how environmental stressors like EMFs affect your ability to heal, and why supporting your thyroid, adrenals, and mitochondria is critical for long-term wellness. If you've been chasing symptoms and are ready to finally understand the root of your chronic health issues, tune in and take your healing into your own hands! HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS:  Drainage before detox. If your lymphatic and fascia systems are congested, your body can't eliminate toxins like mold, metals, or viruses, no matter how many supplements you take. True healing starts with clearing the exit pathways. Your organs are always listening. Both Dr. Motley and Maria share how speaking directly to their organs during prayer or meditation brought powerful healing shifts… showing the potential of organ communication in Chinese medicine. Acupressure delivers real-time results. From dry lips to back pain and even digestive issues, Maria shares firsthand how pressing specific points taught by her acupuncturist delivered instant relief (sometimes in just one session!) -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy's Page: Shop My Macy's Storefront Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off Delete Me: https://bit.ly/43rkHwi   code: SQUAD EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/  Join the In-Person Heal Retreat: https://www.canyonranch.com/stay/events/heal-retreat-with-maria-menounos/?location=lenox  GUEST RESOURCES: Instagram Website Podcast Dr. Motley's Protocols ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos' passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

Resources From The Show: HCL Challenge - Get Thorne Betaine HCL + Pepsin - take one capsule with meal one and watch for any burning, no burning go for 2 capsules with the next meal and increase by one capsule till you either reach 5 capsules or you have a slight burning in the stomach. The more capsules you can tolerate without a burn the more deficient in stomach acid you are. Use 1 teaspoon of baking soda in a few ounces of water and drink it. You can repeat the baking soda drink if needed. Most people will end up taking between 2-6 HCI capsules per meal. Digestive Enzymes - Steven Wright's Company "Healthy Gut" - HCL Guard + Holozymes Apex Energetics - Enzymix Pro Active Herb - herbal company Blue Poppy Herbs Herbs I mentioned in the podcast: Gui Pi Tang — For weak digestion and fluid retention. If you feel puffy or gain weight quickly after eating, this is your ally. Shan Zha Jian Zhi Pian — This one breaks down fat. It's amazing for folks who stress eat or binge on sugar. Long Dan Xie Gan Wan — Helps the liver chill out, especially if you're dealing with reflux, constipation, and bloating.

Chinese Medicine Patterns I talk about: Damp accumulation: That puffy, sluggish weight gain Phlegm: Which is the Chinese term often equated to fat gain Liver Qi Stagnation: When stress causes your liver to "attack" your digestion Blood and Yang Deficiency: Low energy, lack of movement, low motivation

For anyone who has struggled with their mental health or is looking to better understand TCM's approach to healing both the mind and body, this book offers natural, time-tested solutions.

What's the best treatment for Topical Steroid Withdrawal (TSW)? While answers are still emerging, we're getting closer.TSW is a misunderstood, drug-induced condition that goes far beyond typical eczema. Many sufferers feel dismissed by doctors since there's no formal diagnostic criteria and many dermatologists deny its existence. Yet symptoms like relentless itching, flaking, insomnia, “zingers,” and even depression can be life-altering.In this episode, I speak with Dr. Olivia Hsu Friedman—a compassionate, research-driven Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioner who reveals how TSW differs from eczema, and explains how Traditional Chinese Medicine addresses the “toxic heat” behind symptoms. If you've been told “it's just eczema” or feel like nothing is working, this episode offers fresh hope and validation!⭐️Mentioned in This Episode:- Connect with Dr. Friedman

In this episode, we take a high-level look at what happens when you combine two of the most contrasting—and complementary—herbs in North American herbalism: Cayenne (Capsicum annuum) and Lobelia (Lobelia inflata). One stimulates, one relaxes—and together they create a powerful synergy that supports circulation, respiration, and neuromuscular function.  You'll also hear insights on how their energetic and constitutional profiles apply to vāta patterns in Ayurveda and Mercury archetypes in astrology.

The harmful effects of caffeine and energy drinks on college students: Are energy drinks bad for you? Born and raised in Germany, Norbert Heuser spent most of his professional life between his residence in Germany and Asia. He is a German entrepreneur, inventor, life & health coach, public speaker and author. Norbert had his own companies in Taiwan, Mainland China, Hong Kong, Germany and in the USA. Working with and among the Chinese for the past 35 years he had a deeper look into the culture and lifestyle than a regular Western person could possibly have. It is there he was introduced to Chinese Medicine. Norbert alternates between Europe and the USA, where he is invited as a public speaker, delivers seminars, and webinars, and appears on interviews and talk shows. In episode 576 of the Fraternity Foodie Podcast, we find out what inspired Norbert's passion for alternative medicine, how his personal health challenges and his grandson's health issues shaped his current mission and work, some of the biggest misconceptions students have about caffeine, the harmful effects of caffeine and energy drinks, how to reduce or eliminate caffeine safely, healthy and energizing alternatives to coffee or energy drinks, the truth behind the water we drink on campus every day, and how caffeine and other factors can contribute to mental health challenges.

In this episode, we dive into one of the most powerful herb pairs in North American herbalism—Cayenne (Capsicum annuum) and Lobelia (Lobelia inflata).  These two plants represent the archetypal stimulant and relaxant, and when used together, they reveal deep patterns in how herbal energetics function. You'll also discover how this triad—stimulant, relaxant, and tonic—connects to core principles found in Ayurveda, alchemy, and astrology. In this segment, you'll learn: Why Cayenne and Lobelia are a dynamic herbal duo How traditional herbalists define stimulants and relaxants (beyond caffeine and chamomile!) The significance of the stimulant-relaxant-tonic triad in herbal energetics The cross-cultural connections to Ayurveda, Chinese medicine, and astrology How combining oppositional energetics can create synergy in herbal formulas Tune into the full episode to learn more:  https://open.spotify.com/episode/0D57qDsVCLfCfpIZtshgEb?si=6a3639d913d44847   ———————————— CONNECT WITH SAJAH AND WHITNEY ———————————— To get free in depth mini-courses and videos, visit our blog at:  http://www.evolutionaryherbalism.com   Get daily inspiration and plant wisdom on our Facebook and Instagram channels: http://www.facebook.com/EvolutionaryHerbalism https://www.instagram.com/evolutionary_herbalism/   Be sure to subscribe to our YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyP63opAmcpIAQg1M9ShNSQ   Get a free 5-week course when you buy a copy of the book, Evolutionary Herbalism: https://www.evolutionaryherbalism.com/evolutionary-herbalism-book/   Shop our herbal products:  https://naturasophiaspagyrics.com/   ———————————— ABOUT THE PLANT PATH ———————————— The Plant Path is a window into the world of herbal medicine.

The highly watched Netflix 2018 documentary Wild Wild Country for people “in the know” was terribly biased. There were no former members. No cult experts. The two people featured were still “true believers in the cult leader, Rajneesh–who was rebranded after his expulsion from the United States as Osho. This cult took over the small town of Antelope, Oregon through deceit and the commune was the relocation from Pune India, where the cult leader had with a history of legal problems, including owing back taxes and claims of drug smuggling. What was missing was what it was actually like to live at the ashram as a child, like Sarito Carroll did til the commune was disbanded due to criminal activities. On this episode of Cult Conversations: The Influence Continuum, I spoke with Sarito Carroll, about her 2024 memoir In the Shadow of Enlightenment: A Girl's Journey Through the Osho Rajneesh Cult, to hear and share more of the real story of what it was like growing up within the cult. Sarito is a passionate writer who was initiated into the cult by Rajneesh himself at nine years old in the late 1970s. She described her latest books as exploring “the complexities of belonging, trauma, the struggle to break free of cultic ties, and the long journey towards self-acceptance.” The book follows her journey to exit the cult and eventually begin a career as a technical writer and attain her Master of Science in Chinese Medicine in 2007, despite never attaining a proper education through the cult.

In this episode, Jeremy and Camilla return to discuss key aspects of their nearly 40-year-old postgraduate course, Dynamis. They begin by exploring the foundational concepts of homeopathy, particularly the need to classify cases—acute, chronic, epidemic, or miasmatic—before selecting remedies. Jeremy shares insights from his decades of international practice and introduces the idea of the "similimum" as a sequence of remedies rather than a single solution. The episode highlights the structure and goals of the Dynamis course, covering philosophy, Materia Medica, case-taking, and practice management. Camilla talks about her book Beyond Organic, which connects homeopathy with organic gardening and plant care. Jeremy also previews his upcoming book on epidemics, emphasizing the importance of understanding epidemic disease as a collective experience.   Episode Highlights: 03:41 - Jeremy and Camilla's World Tour 09:05 -  Camilla's Book and Agri Homeopathy 13:07 - Jeremy's Organon Book Update 17:09 - The Dynamis Course Overview 28:41 -  Course Structure and Flexibility 31:29 - Business Management in Homeopathy 33:01 - Avoiding Burnout in Homeopathic Practice 36:45 - Introduction to the Book on Epidemics 41:47 - The Role of Technology in Epidemic Management 48:20  - Personal Stories and Experiences 54:07 - Exploring New Homeopathic Remedies 01:01:33 Upcoming Conferences and Events   About my Guests: Jeremy Sherr is an internationally renowned homeopath, educator, and author whose work has significantly shaped modern homeopathic practice. Born in South Africa and raised in Israel, he began studying homeopathy in 1980 at the College of Homoeopathy in London while also earning a degree in Acupuncture from the International College of Oriental Medicine. Although he practices homeopathy exclusively, his deep understanding of Chinese Medicine informs his approach. In 1986, he founded the Dynamis School for Advanced Homoeopathic Studies, now the longest-running postgraduate program in the field, and has since taught in over 30 countries. A prolific author and researcher, Jeremy has published numerous textbooks and journal articles, conducted provings of 32 new homeopathic remedies, and contributed significant works such as Dynamic Materia Medica: Syphilis and the Q-Rep repertory of Mental Qualities. He also developed The Dynamic Case Taker software to enhance homeopathic casetaking and analysis. His achievements have earned him a fellowship from the Society of Homoeopaths, a Ph.D. from Medicina Alternativa, and honorary academic positions in China and Argentina. Recently, he has devoted himself to “Homeopathy for Health in Africa,” a humanitarian project treating HIV/AIDS patients in Tanzania and researching epidemic remedies, further expanding the reach and impact of his life's work.   Camilla Sherr is a passionate and experienced homeopath whose career spans over 30 years, rooted in a deep belief in the mind-body connection and the holistic healing power of homeopathy. After graduating from The Finnish Institute of Homeopathy and completing postgraduate studies at the Dynamis School, she went on to teach and lead remedy provings, including Scandium and Honey. For the past 15 years, she has lived in Tanzania with her husband, Jeremy Sherr, co-founding Homeopathy for Health in Africa, a non-profit dedicated to treating HIV/AIDS patients with homeopathy. Camilla also has a keen interest in Agrihomoeopathy and is the co-creator of Clil Botanicals, a line of therapeutic skincare products combining homeopathy with Tanzanian seed oils. Her dedication to healing extends beyond her clinical work, having served as President of the Finnish Society of Homoeopathy and receiving a Fellowship from the UK Society of Homeopaths, all while continuing to explore and expand the applications of homeopathy in everyday life.   2 x Complimentary 4R Video sessions: https://vimeo.com/1078474070?share=copy https://vimeo.com/1087753300/58251ed747?share=copy   4R and Socials Info: https://www.dynamis.edu/new-page https://www.dynamis.edu/ https://www.instagram.com/dynamis_school_homoeopathy https://www.patreon.com/JEREMYSHERR   4R Season 4 Sign Up link: Season 4: https://tqfs.official.academy/?aaid=gYWrL#!jeremys-4r-materia-medica-season-4/LJRQN/c/JEREMY/ 4R Seasons 1, 2, or 3 Sign-Up Links: Season 1: https://tqfs.official.academy/?aaid=gYWrL#!jeremys-4-r-materia-medica-bundle/LJR99/c/JEREMY/ Season 2: https://tqfs.official.academy/?aaid=gYWrL#!jeremys-4r-materia-medica-bundle-2/LX5ZQ/c/JEREMY/ Season 3: https://tqfs.official.academy/?aaid=gYWrL#!jeremys-4r-materia-medica-bundle-3/z0k92/c/JEREMY/   If you would like to support the Homeopathy Hangout Podcast, please consider making a donation by visiting www.EugenieKruger.com and click the DONATE button at the top of the site.

For those of us in perimenopause, who may already be experiencing heat and dryness, this seasonal transition can intensify our symptoms and leave us feeling even more out of balance.However, the wisdom of ancient medicine provides powerful tools to help us navigate this shift with greater ease. In this episode, we explore how changes in the way we eat, cook, and live can bring cooling, soothing support to the body, without tipping us into coldness or depletion.Join us as we explore how to reconnect with nature's rhythms and discover how to work with the seasons, not against them, for a more grounded and nourishing menopausal journey.

Have you been studying herbs for a while, but you still feel unsure about how to combine them into an effective formula?  Or maybe you're newer to herbalism and ready to dive into the art and science of formulation? Formulation is one of my favorite parts of herbal medicine, so I'm excited to kick off a new series called The Anatomy of a Formula. I love the synergy that emerges when herbs are combined in intelligent, intentional ways—and the specificity you can achieve when formulating for a particular person. It's both powerful and fun. However, for budding herbalists, formulation can initially feel daunting and a little confusing. Without some kind of framework or guidance, many people end up just tossing a bunch of herbs into a bottle and hoping it works. That's not an ideal approach because you're essentially leaving your therapeutics to chance. Instead, approach formulation with strategy, intention, and precision, tailored to the individual you're working with.  Here's what we'll cover in this post: • A brief history of formulation in North American herbalism • Formulation challenges and how to fix the problem • The foundations of herbal formulas: pairs and triplets • The anatomy of an effective formula     ———————————— CONNECT WITH SAJAH AND WHITNEY ———————————— To get free in depth mini-courses and videos, visit our blog at:  http://www.evolutionaryherbalism.com   Get daily inspiration and plant wisdom on our Facebook and Instagram channels: http://www.facebook.com/EvolutionaryHerbalism https://www.instagram.com/evolutionary_herbalism/   Be sure to subscribe to our YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyP63opAmcpIAQg1M9ShNSQ   Get a free 5-week course when you buy a copy of the book, Evolutionary Herbalism: https://www.evolutionaryherbalism.com/evolutionary-herbalism-book/   Shop our herbal products:  https://naturasophiaspagyrics.com/   ———————————— ABOUT THE PLANT PATH ———————————— The Plant Path is a window into the world of herbal medicine.

Spring has officially sprung.   The birds are chirping, the plants are waking up, and the earth is on the move again. It's a beautiful time of year—and here in the Pacific Northwest, we welcome the lifting of the cold, the retreat of the rain, and the chance to head back outside to enjoy nature's splendor and get our gardens growing.   But spring's return comes at a high cost for many due to seasonal allergies.   If you're one of the millions of people who suffer from seasonal allergies, stepping outside can bring so much discomfort and suffering that it hardly seems worth it. You might choose to stay inside, avoiding the warm, sunny days simply because your allergies make being outside unbearable.   In this episode, we're diving into the dynamics of seasonal allergies. There's a lot to cover, so this will be a two-part series.   You may just be looking for remedies—and we'll get there—but first, we need some context. Understanding the "why" behind seasonal allergies provides a broader perspective on what's happening and how to identify the root cause.   In Part One, we'll explore the background and context of seasonal allergies, including: The contributing factors behind allergies and intolerance An esoteric perspective to complement physiological understanding The difference between allergies and intolerances What immunological load is—and how to remain asymptomatic   With this foundation in place, Part Two will cover the therapeutic strategy and approach.
