Today on Conscious Talk… We all love dogs and we're sometimes surprised by how many people are dog parents… but how many of us really know how to care for them? We'll talk to Rita Hogan, author of “The Herbal Dog – Holistic Canine Herbalism Applications and Practice”. As you might guess from the title of her book, she's right up our alley when it comes to any discussion of holism.

May you have the courage to stand in your own knowing.May you find the grace to let go of striving for perfection, and instead embrace the sacredness of your imperfect, human journey.May luminous moments of optimism and possibility guide you,even as you move through gray times of despair and doubt.May you have the wisdom to choose differently, to prioritize what truly matters,creating a legacy that lingers. May you always find solace in the holy ground beneath your feet,the sacred presence that dwells within and all around you.Shine your light, dear one,your small, precious gifts are needed in this world.Happy Spring Equinox!

An herb sachet is basically a little pouch of magick ✨It's something I've done in my witchcraft practice (and honestly even before I realized I was a witch) for a longgg time because it's so easy, so customizable, and very rarely, if ever, is it something that requires items outside of what you already have available to you at home. Today we'll talk about the times in my life I'm making an herb sachet spell, plus tons of ideas, tips, and reminders for using herbs, crystals, symbols, and more into your own little magickal pouches.→ In this episode I mention:Last week's Magickal Herbalism episode Llewellyn's Book of Correspondences by Sandra Kynes ★|| T H E  N E I G H B O R H O O D ||Watch full episodes on my YouTube channel! Join us in That Witch School

Click here to send me a quick message :) Got cramps? The truth is there is not just one answer to how to relieve menstrual cramps, and my guess is that if you've got cramps you've realized this yourself.It took me years to understand that there are many different KINDS of menstrual cramps, and they all come from different imbalances in the body and the pelvis.Today I explore a question I received from a listener about how to stretch or support your ligaments that hold the uterus in place.But before I dive into that, I share what I consider to be foundational ways to observe your menstrual cramps to become a detective of your own body and consider what qualities of your cramps and other symptoms might be telling you.Then I share about my first step with almost everyone, and a little glimpse into how herbs might be allies - and why many herbs won't work, too.And finally, I give a little insight into some of the hands on (and possibly hands in) ways you can both assess and tend to your tissues in the palace of your pelvis.Resources:Grab the free guide: Track your cycle with FAM (and symptom tracking)Today's shownotes: Holistic & embodied approach to menstrual crampsEpisode 19: The importance of softening the pelvis w Chaya Leia AronsonEpisode 32: Herbal spotlight on motherwortEpisode 176: Integrative approach to fibroidsIf you loved this episode, share it with a friend, or take a screenshot and share on social media and tag me @herbalwombwisdomAnd if you love this podcast, leave a rating & write a review!

In this episode of the PCOS Repair Podcast, discover insights from a recent research review titled “Nutrition Strategy and Lifestyle in Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome.” This comprehensive article explores the latest research on dietary patterns, supplements, and lifestyle changes shown to support PCOS symptom relief. You'll learn why tailored strategies matter more than one-size-fits-all solutions and how to apply the findings to your own health journey.The Variety in PCOS PresentationThis episode highlights the wide variability in how PCOS presents itself. While one woman may struggle with acne and irregular cycles, another may be more affected by weight gain or fertility challenges. Yet underneath these symptoms, the same key root causes are to blame: the insulin effect, chronic inflammation, and oxidative stress. These root causes create hormonal imbalances, which drive the array of symptoms that make PCOS so challenging to diagnose and manage.Genetics and Environment in PCOS DevelopmentWhile PCOS has a genetic component, lifestyle factors heavily influence how and when it shows up. Nutrtion, movement routines, stress, and exposure to ultra-processed foods—especially during childhood—can activate genetic vulnerabilities. Understanding this interplay empowers you to make choices that can calm your symptoms and possibly reverse them altogether.Approaches for PCOS Symptom ManagementThe reviewed article explores a range of nutrition strategies, many of the recommendations seem contradictory, so finally this episode will help you will get clarity as to why and what to follow for your specific PCOS root causes and unique self. This episode highlights research-backed supplements that support hormone balance, insulin regulation, ovulation, and inflammation reduction. Herbal supports were also reviewed, with several natural compounds showing promise for improving PCOS symptoms. However, the importance of individualized plans and safety especially during pregnancy is underscored.Be sure to check the show notes for the full research article and subscribe to the PCOS Repair Podcast to stay up to date on new insights and actionable guidance for your PCOS journey.You can take the quiz to discover your root cause hereNutrition Strategy and Life Style in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome—Narrative ReviewLet's continue the conversation on Instagram! What did you find helpful in this episode and what follow-up questions do you have?The full list of Resources & References Mentioned can be found on the Episode webpage at:https://nourishedtohealthy.com/ep-150

In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Myriah Hinchey, a functional medicine practitioner specializing in chronic illness and immune dysfunction, to explore the complex world of autoimmunity through the lens of Lyme disease and stealth pathogens. We dive into how these microbes evade the immune system, disrupt the body's internal balance, and target areas of weakness — from old injuries to inflamed tissues. Dr. Hinchey explains how this leads to persistent inflammation, neurological symptoms, and gut dysfunction, often without obvious signs of infection. You'll learn why a root-cause approach to chronic infections must go beyond antimicrobials — incorporating immune support, detoxification, terrain rebuilding, and the smart use of herbal medicine.   If you've struggled with unexplained symptoms, autoimmunity, or suspect hidden infections might be at play, this conversation will help you understand the deeper mechanisms — and what true healing actually takes. Key Takeaways: The central focus in treating Lyme disease should be on restoring immune balance and competency rather than solely targeting pathogens with antibiotics. Lyme disease can lead to significant systemic disruptions, manifesting in symptoms such as fatigue, cognitive dysfunction, and even neuropsychiatric disorders. A therapeutic lifestyle approach, including dietary changes, detoxification, and stress management, is essential for effective management of chronic vector-borne diseases. Herbal medicine, especially herbs like Cryptolepis, Chinese Skullcap, and Japanese Knotweed, play a vital role in managing inflammation and immune dysregulation. More About Dr. Myriah Hinchey, ND: Dr. Myriah Hinchey, a Naturopathic physician and Fellow of the Medical Academy of Pediatric Special Needs (MAPS), is a recognized expert in the field of Lyme disease and other complex chronic inflammatory conditions, with over 17 years of specialized experience. As a physician and the Medical Director at TAO, an integrative center for healing, she has successfully guided thousands of patients towards recovery from their complex chronic inflammatory conditions. Additionally, she is the founder and owner of LymeCore Botanicals, a herbal medicine company focused on providing effective solutions for healing vector-borne diseases. Dr. Hinchey is dedicated to treating patients of all ages, with a specialty in pediatrics, and is also a sought-after speaker, passionately educating healthcare professionals on the pathophysiology of vector-borne diseases and how to successfully integrate functional, herbal, and lifestyle medicine into their practices.

In this episode, host Ashleigh Bodell sits down with the wildly magical Sarah Key-DeLyria—herbalist, gardener, performer, former professor, and the creative force behind Green Moon Witchery. Based in Portland, Oregon, Sarah has spent over twenty years weaving together science, spirituality, and earthy enchantment through her passion for plants and handmade soap.Sarah shares the origins of her connection to herbs, from gardening with her father to discovering witchcraft in her early adulthood, and how her academic journey in speech-language pathology and neurolinguistics informs her approach to magical practices. Together, Ashleigh and Sarah explore how science and spellwork can coexist, the evolution of their personal relationships with tools like tarot and crystals, and how creativity helps keep their spiritual practice vibrant in the chaos of daily life. Sarah also reveals the inspiration behind her tarot-themed soaps and how each bar becomes a little moment of magic woven into the mundane.Whether you're a seasoned witch, a crystal enthusiast, or just curious about integrating a little more meaning into your routine, this episode is packed with wisdom, laughter, and enchanting inspiration.Key Moments: 01:32 Herbal Soap Magic with Sarah05:56 Gardening Struggles and Small Wins08:18 "Intellectual to Personal Connection"11:10 Embracing Wholeness Beyond Academia15:02 Nature Connection Overcoming Stigma18:39 Occasional Card-Reading Habit22:57 "Tarot for Cognitive Support"24:00 "Tarot's Versatile and Fun Benefits"30:19 Tarot-Inspired Design Process31:03 Calendula Soap for Skin Healing35:37 Deepening Understanding Through Tarot39:28 "Creative Outlets Enhance Well-Being"42:15 Sensory Moments with Homemade Soap44:10 Handmade Soap: A Personal Touch48:24 Musicians, Housing, and Tax ChallengesAbout the Guest : Sarah Key-DeLyria's journey into witchcraft began before she truly knew it, rooted in a childhood surrounded by plants and the gardening hands of her father, who called working outside his “church.” Raised in Houston among nine sheltering live oak trees, Sarah felt deeply connected to nature from an early age—the trees themselves felt like family. This early spirituality blossomed further after she spent a year studying in Berkeley, a place she jokes makes it nearly impossible to leave without embracing witchcraft. Over time, Sarah found that her love for herbs and her spiritual path intertwined, leading her to cultivate a practice that honors both the magic of the natural world and her own personal journey.How to connect Sarah : Website : https://www.greenmoonwitchery.com/Instagram : https://www.instagram.com/greenmoonwitchery/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sarahekd/Meet Ashleigh Bodell – your guide to the mystical and the magical on the Big Crystal Energy Podcast.By day, she's a dedicated orthopedic physician assistant, but by night, she dives deep into the metaphysical, exploring crystals, energy work, and the unseen forces that shape our world.

For clinicians in functional medicine, these cases are all too familiar. While antibiotics, herbal medicines, biofilm disruptors, and immune support are key in managing Lyme disease, restoring quality sleep is just as essential. Without sleep, healing stalls. It is during deep sleep that glymphatic clearance occurs, immune cells regenerate, and the nervous system resets. Herbal solutions can help patients with Lyme-related insomnia achieve deep, restorative sleep. This article explores how Lyme disrupts sleep physiology and how Moss Nutrition's new Sleep Select Herbal—a blend of saffron, valerian, American skullcap, passionflower, and Ziziphus spinosa—can help restore calm and rest. These botanicals are supported by clinical trials and tailored to address the unique neuroimmune dysregulation seen in Lyme disease. The Limits of Conventional Sleep Aids Many Lyme patients are prescribed benzodiazepines, sedative antihistamines, or off-label antidepressants for insomnia. While these may offer temporary relief, they rarely address root causes. Over time, they can disrupt sleep architecture, desensitize GABA receptors, and create dependency or withdrawal problems. By contrast, botanical nervines and adaptogens support endogenous pathways—enhancing GABA, modulating cortisol, and recalibrating circadian rhythm—without suppressing natural neurotransmission. This is the core strategy behind Sleep Select Herbal. How Lyme Disease Disrupts Sleep and Creates Nervous Tension 1. Neuroinflammation and Cytokine Overload Borrelia and its coinfections invade the central nervous system, triggering microglial activation and the release of inflammatory cytokines like IL-6, TNF-alpha, and IL-1β. These cytokines interfere with the function of sleep-promoting areas in the brain, such as the hypothalamus and suprachiasmatic nucleus. Impact: Reduced sleep drive, disrupted circadian signaling, and altered neurotransmitter synthesis. 2. Cortisol Dysregulation and HPA Axis Dysfunction Patients with chronic Lyme disease often exhibit abnormal cortisol rhythms—typically low in the morning and elevated at night. This flipped curve perpetuates insomnia, often manifesting as nighttime awakenings or difficulty falling asleep. Impact: Low melatonin, nighttime anxiety, impaired parasympathetic tone, and reduced vagal tone. 3. GABA and Serotonin Imbalance Lyme disease inflammation can disrupt the synthesis and receptor sensitivity of GABA and serotonin—the primary calming neurotransmitters. This leads to hyperarousal, panic, and light, unrefreshing sleep. Impact: Reduced GABAergic tone increases muscle tension, rumination, and sympathetic dominance. Five Botanicals to Restore Sleep in Lyme Disease Each herb in Sleep Select Herbal addresses a distinct but overlapping mechanism contributing to insomnia and nervous tension. Clinically formulated Sleep Select Herbal supports deep, restorative sleep for patients with Lyme-related insomnia and nervous tension. 1. Saffron (Crocus sativus) – The Circadian Calibrator In a 2021 double-blind, placebo-controlled study of 120 adults with poor sleep, saffron (affron®) at 14–28 mg improved sleep quality, reduced insomnia severity, and increased evening melatonin levels without next-day sedation (Lopresti et al., 2021). Mechanisms: Increases nighttime melatonin Reduces evening cortisol Improves sleep onset and continuity Patient Profile: Individuals with delayed sleep phase, high evening cortisol, or mood disturbances upon waking. 2. Valerian (Valeriana officinalis) – The GABAergic Grounder Valerian root enhances GABA signaling by inhibiting its breakdown and modulating GABA-A receptors. A clinical trial showed valerian significantly improved total sleep time, reduced latency, and enhanced sleep efficiency (Shekhar et al., 2024). Mechanisms: Binds GABA-A receptors without habituation Reduces anxiety and muscle tension

DEFRA says an "error was made" when closing the Sustainable Farming Incentive to new applications earlier this year, and people who had applications in progress when it was shut, could now be allowed to submit them. The Sustainable Farming Incentive - or SFI - is part of the new system of farm payments in England, replacing the EU's Common Agricultural Policy. It pays people to do things like grow cover crops, plant flowers for pollinators, and manage hedgerows on their land. But in March this year, the Government announced, with no warning, that the SFI would be closed to new applications.We visit one farmer who could be affected by the change: dairy farmer, Sarah Godwin, had planned plant a mixture of grasses, enriched with legumes and other species - called a herbal ley - paid for by the SFI...but the scheme was abruptly closed in March before her application was complete. She says the farm had spent more than a thousand pounds on agents' fees to help with the forms.And testing top soils is often done to measure nutrients and organic matter - but recording what lies at a much lower depth could be key to enhancing soil health, and help achieve agriculture's net zero targets. We visit CAFRE, Northern Ireland's College of Agriculture, Food and Rural Enterprise, where a major, deep soil carbon-coring project has been underway.Presented by Anna Hill Produced by Heather Simons

Dana was diagnosed with a rare autoimmune condition called Lichen Sclerosus in 2012 shortly after learning her mother was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer. With Western harsh topical steroids and estrogen creams making things worse and covering up underlying systemic issues, Dana looked to eastern medicine to begin repairing her condition, and within 3 months, she began to feel vital, hopeful, and motivated that recovery was possible.  In one year, Dana's extreme case of LS was in full remission. Now supporting LS clients for over a decade with comprehensive herbal medicine protocols, Dana has produced a potent herbal oil clinically tested and formulated to target the debilitating symptoms of LS. We chat about what Lichen Sclerosus is, why she thinks LS is being diagnosed at an alarming rate, how she assesses it at the Wildflower Clinic, lifestyle recommendations for those with autoimmunity, resources for those with LS and a whole lot more.  This was in incredibly informative interview and I hope you get a lot out of it.  Big thanks to Dana for joining me on the show, and thanks to y'all for tuning in.

In this episode of the Ancient Health Podcast, Dr. Chris Motley explores the intricate relationship between trauma, fascia, and self-regulation. He discusses how trauma is stored in the body, particularly in the fascial system, and how this can lead to physical and emotional health issues. Dr. Motley emphasizes the importance of understanding the body's memory and the techniques available for releasing trauma, including herbal remedies and self-care practices for emotional healing. ------  Show notes:   Herbs: * Rehmannia * Licorice Root * Schisandra: https://shorturl.at/gLmfM * Reishi: https://tinyurl.com/4rrce3d7 * Lion's Mane * The Body Keeps the Score by Bessell Van der Kolk * CES Ultra - Vagus Nerve Stimulator * Dr. Perry - @stopchasingpain Takeaways Trauma is stored in the body and can lead to physical issues. Emotional trauma can affect physical health and vice versa. Techniques like EMDR and somatic therapies can help release trauma. Fascia encodes emotional and energetic imprints, serving as a memory storage. The connection between fascia and DNA is crucial for understanding trauma.

You'll learn why extreme cold isn't necessary for women to see benefits—and how milder cold exposure (think 55°F) can be just as effective. Let's challenge the male-centric wellness norms and reclaim what actually works for our bodies.-----Herbal formula for hormone regulation, fertility, and for PMS management: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Soothe⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Immediate period discomfort and cramp relief: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Crampy⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Visit the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Peace Love Hormones website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and use code "podcast" to save on your first order!-----You may also like:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Overmedicated and Undereducated: How I Found Healing Through Herbal Medicine⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ – My personal journey of discovering the power of herbal medicine and creating Peace Love Hormones.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Your Menstrual Cycle Shapes Brain Health with Emily McDonald ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠– How your cycle influences brain function and mental well-being with neuroscientist Emily McDonald.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Unlock the Benefits of Burdock Root for Gut, Liver, and Hormone Health⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ – The powerful benefits of burdock root for digestion, detox, and hormone balance.-----

A major hazard of inviting herbalists on this show is that with each conversation, I get so excited about the herb we discussed that I want to run out and get it and start working with it right away! I often have to remind myself that I don't need to try every single herb, and that many of my most versatile and beloved herbal allies are the ones that I already have in my garden and my spice rack.This conversation with Dr. Orna Izakson about thyme was a great reminder that herbs don't need to be unusual or exotic to be powerful! Orna shared about how thyme has supported her from the very beginning of her herbal journey, as well as her recipe for the preparation that helped keep her out of the hospital and healing at home. You can find the recipe for her Herbal Steam for Respiratory Health here: https://bit.ly/4iAD0Db Thyme is an amazing herb with so many benefits, and the best thing is, you probably already have a jar of it in your spice rack! Here are just a few ways you can work with thyme's gifts:► Infused into vinegar to make an all-purpose antimicrobial cleaner► Added liberally to food to boost flavor and aid digestion► Prepared as a tea to soothe a sore throat or relieve congestionTo learn even more about this wonderful herb, be sure to give my conversation with Orna a listen!By the end of this episode, you'll know:► How working with thyme helped keep Orna from having to go to the hospital► Why the herbs we need the most are often the ones growing right outside our door► Three simple ways you can work with thyme for your health► Why herbal steams are so powerful for warding off colds and flu► and so much more…For those of you who don't know her, Dr. Orna Izakson is a licensed naturopathic doctor and registered herbalist practicing in Alaska and Oregon, specializing in mental health, women's health and chronic disease.
