COMPLETE BLOG & TRANSCRIPT: https://caremorebebetter.com/clean-beauty-reimagined-herbal-wisdom-regenerative-skincare-with-megan-douglas/ About Guest: The founder of The Organic Skin Co., Megan Douglas is a fifth-generation herbalist and naturopath who is a passionate advocate for natural health, wellbeing, beauty and sustainability. This passion is the product of her past -from the many hours she spent out the back of her grandmother's health food shop as a child, through her experiences in London as a fashion designer, her work as a naturopath (where she was shocked by the amount of women visiting her with skin problems, most of them caused by environmental stressors and toxins), and by her experiences as a mother, with a daughter who grew up interested in all things skincare and makeup.

Could the secret to a calmer mind and a healthier gut be hiding in your morning bowl of porridge?In this episode, I sit down with Swedish herbalist and nutritionist Karoline Karttunen to discuss one of my favorite breakfasts — the humble oats (Avena sativa).Grains have gotten a bad rap in recent years — and it's true that highly processed or sugar-laden versions don't do us any favors. But as Karoline reminds us, whole-grain oats are a true nutritional powerhouse that also carry the same medicinal gifts as oat straw and milky oats — beloved herbal allies for nourishing the nervous system and restoring resilience. She shares how oats support everything from balanced blood sugar to a calmer mind (and even a healthier microbiome).Karoline is so devoted to her oats that she eats them for breakfast five days a week! She keeps her daily porridge endlessly interesting by rotating the nuts, seeds, fruits, and herbs that she adds to the mix. You can even try her Herbal and Protein-Rich Oatmeal yourself — download the beautifully illustrated recipe card here.By the end of this episode, you'll know:► How a bowl of oats can calm frazzled nerves and lift your mood naturally► What butyric acid is—and why your intestinal cells can't get enough of it► The truth about so-called “anti-nutrients” like phytic acid (and why you might not need to worry about them)► How your brain and heart thrive on the right kind of carbs—and why oats are the perfect fuel► How discoveries in archaeology and anthropology challenge the myth that eating grains is “unnatural” for humans► and plenty more oat-inspired insights to nourish body and mind….For those of you who don't know her, Karoline Karttunen is a Swedish herbalist and nutritionist who brings herbs and food together in her herbal courses, blog and in personal consultations. She has in-person courses year round on the west coast of Sweden, as well as offering online courses in herbalism. Karoline's courses always have a focus on how herbs can strengthen health and be used as a natural part of our everyday life, just as we do with vegetables.I was already a huge fan of oats, but after talking with Karoline, I couldn't wait to make them an even bigger part of my herbal routine. I'm so happy to share this conversation with you—and I hope you leave feeling inspired to make yourself a big bowl of porridge, too!----Get full show notes, transcript, and more information at: herbswithrosaleepodcast.comWould you prefer watching this episode?

If you haven't made herbal cold/flu/COVID care kits for your household yet, now is the time! Herbal care kits are one of our very favorite things. Here's the premise: when you're sick, it's hard to think, no matter how good an herbalist you are. So get the stuff you're going to need ready ahead of time! It's like taking care of your future self.Plus, it's likely that you're the herbalist in your household – so you're going to need to take care of everyone else too! But life doesn't stop just because someone gets sick, so if you make care kits for everyone, then even if they get sick at the most inconvenient time – no problem. You're already ready!There's two steps to this process. First, think about each person in your household, and how they tend to get sick. Then, plan your kits based on that.For us it goes like this: Ryn tends to get a sore throat and a cough, or a stomach ache, whereas Katja always starts with an earache or headache. Even if we have the same bug, that's where things tend to settle in our bodies. So in our kit, we'll put some generally-applicable items – like herbs to steam with – but we'll also put things in for headache and earache/ear infection, as well as items for sore throat, cough, and stomach ache.Today's episode is all about how we make our care kits, so that you can make yours more easily!The natural next question is, what are the things we should put in our herbal care kits, for ear infections and sore throats and coughs and and and…?We've got you! We made the Cold & Flu mini-course for exactly this reason! It's got everything you need both to prepare your body to stay strong when folks are getting sick, and to deal with all the symptoms if you do get sick. It even has a simple reference chapter that goes through each kind of symptom individually, so you can mix and match your strategies to meet each person's specific situation.Like all our offerings, this self-paced online video course comes with free access to twice-weekly live Q&A sessions with us, lifetime access to current & future course material, open discussion threads integrated in each lesson, an active student community, study guides, quizzes & capstone assignments, and more!If you have a moment, it would help us a lot if you could subscribe, rate, & review our podcast wherever you listen. This helps others find us more easily. Thank you!!Our theme music is “Wings” by Nicolai Heidlas.Support the showYou can find all of our online herbalism courses at online.commonwealthherbs.com!
