Herbal medicine is most powerful when it is specific, and it's important to look at the underlying patterns that shape how a condition appears in an individual. One diagnosis may have many causes and manifest as a variety of tissue states, depending on the person. However, some conditions carry a regular, recognizable energetic and humoral pattern. Hyperthyroidism is a classic condition that fits this description. One of the best herbal remedies for hyperthyroidism is Lemon Balm (Melissa officinalis). In this post, we'll explore hyperthyroidism, heat patterns, and how Lemon Balm can be an important part of the treatment protocol.

Dr. Shayne Morris didn't stumble into the microbiome world — he inherited it. Now CEO of both Systemic Formulas and Alimentum Labs, Shayne's grandfather started the company back in 1984 as a healer studying Eastern, Polynesian, and South American medicine, and Shayne spent his career turning that legacy into hard science: how nature actually produces healing, and why the microbes living in and on us — which outweigh every other living thing on the planet combined — do more biochemical work than our own 23,000 genes ever could. In this episode, we get into herbal genomics (Shayne coined the term "herbalomics" back when he realized compounds like turmeric were directly switching genes on and off), why methylated vitamins were considered fringe in 2007 when Systemic started using them, and the surprisingly recent science connecting fungal overgrowth to childhood ADHD and eczema. We also break down the Holobiome Roadmap — Systemic's five-stage system designed to make gut and cellular health personalized without handing a patient fourteen different bottles and no instructions — and why compliance, not complexity, is usually what determines whether a protocol actually works. Along the way: the real story behind why doctors started washing their hands between autopsies and deliveries, and details on Systemic's NextGen event in Ogden, Utah (September 18–20), where Freddie will be speaking on sales as a role of service.

One of the core pillars hormonal health - the dynamic healthy dance of our hormones - is a resilient nervous system.I don't love using the word regulated, because that sounds like we're trying to neutralize or dampen our nervous system response, when what we really want is to grow our capacity to feel all the things fully, and complete the waves.So what can we do yo cool and calm our frazzled, anxious, agitated systems? Herbs can be amazing allies for this, really it's one of the places they shine.In today's episode, I share about motherwort as a relaxing, antispasmodic, cooling nervine; milky oats as a deep restorative nervous system tonic; and schisandra as an incredible ally for stress resilience as well as nourishing our qi and retaining fluids in the body.Hopefully these glimpses feel supportive in this summer season that tends towards heat, intensity, drive and excess activity. A time when we would do well to incorporate some cooling and calming herbal allies alongside.Resources:Free 10 key herbs for hormonal health (incl. 5 herbal pillars of hormonal health) guideToday's shownotes: Herbal allies to cool + calm the nervous systemEpisode 17: How stress messes with your hormonesEpisode 32: Herbal spotlight on motherwortEpisode 40: Herbal spotlight on schisandraEpisode 68: Herbal spotlight on milky oatsIf 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!

Transcript:Da: Solen stod højt på himlen, og hele Roskilde Festival var fyldt med liv og glæde.En: The sun stood high in the sky, and the whole Roskilde Festival was filled with life and joy.Da: Lyden fra scenerne blandede sig med latter og musik.En: The sound from the stages mingled with laughter and music.Da: I midten af det hele lå en gammeldags urtepotteshave, stille og duftende.En: In the midst of it all lay an old-fashioned herb garden, quiet and fragrant.Da: I skyggen af de gamle træer sad Nina, en ung urtelærerinde, og studerede sine planter.En: In the shade of the old trees sat Nina, a young herb teacher, studying her plants.Da: Nina drømte om at blive en del af festivalens officielle urtelærerteam.En: Nina dreamed of becoming a part of the festival's official herbal team.Da: Hun vidste, at hun kunne gøre det.En: She knew she could do it.Da: En chance opstod, da en desperat besked kom fra en af festivalens arrangører.En: An opportunity arose when a desperate message came from one of the festival's organizers.Da: Sangerens stemme var i fare, og kun en sjælden urt kunne redde den.En: The singer's voice was in jeopardy, and only a rare herb could save it.Da: "Tidebregne," sagde de hurtigt.En: "Tidebregne," they said quickly.Da: "Det vokser kun i de afsides dele af festivalen."En: "It only grows in the remote parts of the festival."Da: Nina nikkede og så mod den travle festivalrute, hvor folk gik frem og tilbage.En: Nina nodded and looked toward the busy festival route, where people were coming and going.Da: Tiden var knap.En: Time was short.Da: Hun måtte finde urten, før solen gik ned.En: She had to find the herb before the sun went down.Da: Nina huskede, at hun under opstillingen havde set en sti, som næsten ingen brugte.En: Nina remembered seeing a path during setup that hardly anyone used.Da: Selvom det var risikabelt at gå en ukendt vej, besluttede hun sig for at tage chancen.En: Although it was risky to take an unknown path, she decided to take the chance.Da: Hun greb sin lille kurv og begyndte sin mission.En: She grabbed her small basket and began her mission.Da: Stien førte hende væk fra den travle menneskemængde.En: The path led her away from the busy crowd.Da: Hun gik mellem høje, brusende træer og over stenede stier.En: She walked between tall, rustling trees and over rocky paths.Da: Fuglene sang, og vinden raslede blidt gennem grenene.En: The birds sang, and the wind rustled gently through the branches.Da: Men urten, hun søgte, var stadig væk.En: But the herb she was seeking was still missing.Da: Timerne gik hurtigt.En: The hours went by quickly.Da: Solens gyldne lys begyndte at fade, og Nina mærkede panikken snige sig ind.En: The sun's golden light began to fade, and Nina felt panic creeping in.Da: Pludselig, ved bredden af en rolig dam, så hun noget.En: Suddenly, by the edge of a calm pond, she saw something.Da: Der, mellem det grønne siv, stod tidebregnen, skinnende i det sidste lys fra solen.En: There, among the green reeds, stood the tidebregne, shining in the last light from the sun.Da: Med forsigtige hænder plukkede Nina planten og begav sig straks tilbage.En: With careful hands, Nina picked the plant and immediately set off back.Da: Hendes hurtige skridt førte hende tilbage til festivalen, netop som sangeren gjorde sig klar.En: Her quick steps brought her back to the festival just as the singer was getting ready.Da: Festivalens leder, Soren, så overrasket på hende.En: The festival leader, Soren, looked at her in surprise.Da: "Du gjorde det!"En: "You did it!"Da: udbrød han lettet.En: he exclaimed relievedly.Da: Med tidebregnen genvandt sangeren sin stemme, og koncerten blev en stor succes.En: With the tidebregne, the singer regained their voice, and the concert was a great success.Da: Mens bandet spillede deres første nummer, trådte Soren hen til Nina.En: As the band played their first number, Soren stepped over to Nina.Da: "Du har bevist din kunnen," sagde han smilende.En: "You have proven your ability," he said with a smile.Da: "Vi vil gerne have dig med i vores team."En: "We would like to have you on our team."Da: Nina følte en bølge af stolthed skylle over sig.En: Nina felt a wave of pride wash over her.Da: Hun havde opnået mere end bare anerkendelse.En: She had achieved more than just recognition.Da: Hun havde fundet troen på sig selv.En: She had found belief in herself.Da: Mens musikken spillede aftenens sidste toner, vidste Nina, at hun tilhørte dette magiske sted.En: As the music played the last notes of the evening, Nina knew that she belonged to this magical place.Da: Pakket ind i lyden af klapsalver og summen fra festivalens aktiviteter, så hun frem til, hvad der nu ventede.En: Wrapped in the sound of applause and the hum of the festival's activities, she looked forward to what awaited.Da: Roskilde Festival havde fået en ny urtemester, der endelig følte sig hjemme.En: Roskilde Festival had gained a new herb master who finally felt at home.

Join us in this chat with Nick Pratt , discussing Agroforestry, Fruit Tree Medicine & Building Resilience.What if the most medicinal part of your fruit tree isn't the fruit at all, but the leaf you've been pruning and composting? In this episode, Tatiana Dawn sit down with permaculture and agroecology educator Nick Pratt to explore the deep, often-overlooked connection between food and medicine.Nick Pratt (@nicholasisbarefoot) is a former chef turned permaculture and agroforestry educator. After years working in high-end commercial kitchens, Nick went searching for a deeper understanding of where food actually comes from — a journey that took him through monoculture farms in Australia and eventually to a small indigenous village in Peru, where he witnessed a culture that never separated food from medicine. That experience reshaped the way he sees every plant he grows today.In this conversation, we explore the blurry, often-ignored line between food and medicine — and why food has been reduced further and further until most people no longer recognise a beetroot plant when they see one. We dig into the difference between permaculture and agroforestry, Nick's seed-bank garden and his use of comfrey and yarrow for healing balms, and the surprising medicinal power hiding in everyday fruit trees — mulberry, blueberry, strawberry, pomegranate, soursop — much of it concentrated in the leaves rather than the fruit. We also talk about Nick's upcoming e-book Orchard Apothecary, and dive deep into resilience: not the lone-wolf, fully-self-sufficient kind, but the community-rooted kind that gets tested in floods, lockdowns, and supply chain shocks. Nick shares tangible, doable first steps for anyone wanting to start — even from a balcony — and reflects on what it means to build a culture of connection over consumption, especially as a father raising a daughter in it.SHOW NOTESYou can connect with Nick on Instagram @nicholasisbarefoot here, and find his current balms and plant offerings via his social media while his online shop is being built.

What if the best medicine for your body has nothing to do with treating your disease and everything to do with treating you? That's the question at the heart of this conversation, and I am so honored to bring you one of the most respected voices in herbal medicine today, David Winston. In this episode of the Wild Herbs Podcast, I talk with herbalist and ethnobotanist David Winston about how plant energetics and human energetics help match herbs to a person's constitution so we treat people rather than diseases. David reflects on herbal medicine's resurgence since the late 1960s, shares how his early connection with plants began in childhood, and explains why herbalism and orthodox medicine are complementary. We discuss the difference between treating a disease and treating a person, nootropic herbs, compliance and dosing forms, the concept of synergy in herbal formulas, nature's role in mental health, foundations of health, and mimosa (Albizia) bark as a powerful mood elevator. David also describes his two-year clinical training program and formula-building approach.

A guided contemplative practice. Lean your back against a tree for five minutes of sensory presence.Robin opens with Tommy Cooper's "pick a card, any card." It becomes a playful doorway into stillness.He walks through breath, posture, and bodily sensation. The body settles into rhythm with its surroundings.The episode then turns reflective. Civilisation has distanced us from sensory, embodied intelligence.From hands-in-food eating to chairs and utensils, we've lost touch with our senses. This simple act of leaning against bark reclaims something.It's "the oldest conversation," Robin says.

Could optimizing your testosterone levels as a woman be the missing piece to improving your sleep, mood, and libido? In this episode, I'm joined by OB-GYN, integrative women's health expert, and author Dr. Suzanne Gilberg Lenz for a powerful conversation about botanicals, hormones, and the menopause symptoms women should stop ignoring. We talk about how herbs like ashwagandha, rhodiola, black cohosh, Siberian rhubarb, saffron, and passion flower may support sleep, mood, hot flashes, blood sugar, and nervous system regulation. Most importantly, we dig into why symptoms like severe hot flashes, night sweats, and sexual dysfunction are not just annoying midlife inconveniences, but important signals your body is asking you to address. What you'll learn: (00:00) Experiencing sexual or orgasmic dysfunction can act as a crucial early warning signal for underlying heart disease. (00:10) Hot flashes and night sweats originate in the brain and can serve as major red flags for cardiovascular disease and dementia. (01:44) Utilizing a clinically studied form of urolithin A helps renew mitochondrial health to improve muscle strength and function. (02:41) Constant hunger and cravings often stem from a gut issue where cells lack the short-chain fatty acids needed to regulate appetite. (06:04) Over thirty percent of conventional pharmaceuticals originate from the botanical world and traditional medicine. (12:07) Starting with adaptogens like ashwagandha or rhodiola provides a gentle, powerful entrance point for managing nervous system and sleep issues. (12:58) Siberian rhubarb acts as a selective estrogen receptor modulator to target brain and bone health without activating proliferation in the uterus or breast. (16:25) Overcoming menopausal sleep issues requires evaluating lifestyle choices, blood sugar stability, and helpful botanicals like passion flower and saffron. Love the podcast?

Most herbal dosing strategies fail during acute infections, not because the herbs are wrong, but because the dosage, frequency, and timing are wrong.

Here's what you'll learn: Why herbal dosing for acute infections is different from chronic care The four most common mistakes people make when taking herbs during illness Why low-dose strategies often fail in the treatment of acute infections Suggested dosage and frequency guidelines for acute herbal protocols Why herbs need time and consistency to build up and be effective How to think about various herb classes as part of your treatment protocol The importance of organ-system specificity and tissue state energetics Why herbs don't work the same way antibiotics do, and how to manage client expectations Treating lingering symptoms  Supportive lifestyle practices that improve recovery outcomes Warning signs that indicate it may be time to seek medical attention   If you want to dive even deeper into this kind of information, you might really like our FREE Vitalist Herbalism Mini-course.  Join the waitlist to get the FREE workshop when it starts on June 15, 2026: http://www.evolutionaryherbalism.com/vitalist-herbalism-mini-course/waitlist/   ———————————— 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.

On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared dives into the fascinating world of moringa, often called the “miracle tree,” and explains why this nutrient-dense herb deserves real attention beyond the hype.

In the 17th century, Descartes, Galileo, and Newton transformed a living world into mechanical clockwork. Descartes drew the fatal line between mind and matter, rendering everything beyond the thinking self inert and available for measurement. This lens birthed science and medicine, but cost us what Goethean scientist Craig Holdrege calls living thinking - thought that is responsive, relational, and shaped by what it encounters.Goethe knew perception isn't passive: to truly see a plant, you must let it work on you.

173: I've noticed so many dog parents getting overwhelmed trying to choose the “right” herbal product for their dogs…tinctures, glycerites, powders, chews… what's actually best? In this short episode, I break down the differences between some of the most common herbal formats, how they work in the body, and why delivery method matters just as much as the herb itself. I also share when I personally reach for powders versus glycerites versus chews, plus some practical examples using seasonal allergy support formulas. If you've ever wondered why one herbal product works differently than another, this episode is for you. Topics Discussed: → What herbal format works fastest? → Are herbal chews effective for dogs? → When should dogs use herbal powders? → What are glycerites used for? → Which herbs support seasonal allergies?

Enrollment for Herbal Dental Care closes tonight at midnight, so I wanted to record a quick episode sharing a few thoughts about why this course has me so excited. This isn't just a course about herbs for teeth or gums. It's about understanding oral health through the lens of tissue states, constitutional patterns, inflammation, digestion, stress, mineral balance, and how the mouth reflects the whole body. The course is taught by Kyle Denton, who spent 15 years in the dental field before becoming a clinical herbalist. The way he bridges those two worlds is unlike anything I've personally encountered in herbal education. The live classes are held Thursdays at 6pm Central on: May 28 June 4 June 11 June 18 June 25 Recordings will be available for anybody who can't attend live.

Herbs can be incredible allies for oral health, but knowing how and when to use them makes all the difference.Here, I share three of my favorite herbal recipes for supporting the mouth, gums, and oral tissues, along with practical tips for actually making them effective.► A powerful herbal mouthwash with echinacea, sage, and plantain► A sage and rose tooth powder for everyday oral care► A turmeric mouth pack for deeper long-term gum supportI also talk about one of the biggest mistakes people make with herbal oral care: not giving herbs enough time and consistency to truly work with the tissues.If you'd like all three recipes in one place, you can download the ebook here.

In times of rapid change, overstimulation, and emotional uncertainty, the nervous system often longs for rhythm, nourishment, and restoration. In this episode of The Herbal Almanac, Lisa Marie explores several herbal allies traditionally associated with resilience, emotional steadiness, and nervous system support, including milky oats, tulsi, and rose. find the blog post here: everythingisenergyapothecary.com/herbal-almanac/nervous-system-herbs join my email list: everythingisenergyapothecary.com/contact

Most people think oral health starts and ends with the teeth. But the mouth may be telling a much bigger story.Here, I share three important shifts in thinking that completely changed the way I understand herbal oral care.► Why oral health is deeply connected to the rest of the body► How herbal energetics can help us better understand gum and tissue patterns► Why consistency matters when using herbs for oral careI also share why I'm so excited about the free Herbal Dental Care mini course created by my friends Kyle Denton and Mason Hutchison.

If you have Lyme disease, you may already understand how ticks can wreak havoc with your immune system.

Jared starts this new series, Herbal Secrets, by diving into one of natural health's most overlooked tools: neem. Often known for its topical use, neem is far more than a simple antimicrobial—it's what Jared calls a “terrain shifter,” helping support balance in the skin and gut microbiome rather than simply eliminating microbes. You'll learn how neem may help maintain healthy microbial balance, support normal inflammatory responses, and assist the body's natural detoxification processes. Jared breaks down topical vs. internal uses, including applications for skin health, oral care, and gut support, along with practical strategies for combining neem with enzymes and probiotics. If you're dealing with persistent imbalances or looking to support whole-body resilience, this episode offers a fresh perspective on restoring balance from the inside out. Products:TheraNeem Cleansing BarTheraNeem CreamTheraNeem Leaf & Aloe GelTheraNeem OilNOW Tea Tree OilSolaray Neem Leaf CapsulesPure Essence CandexCellCore Biotoxin BinderSolaray Charcoal CapsulesFood Movement Black Earth Zeolite Humic Fulvic MineralsPrecision Probiotic Vital SporesAdditional Information:#616: Microbiome Balance from Mouth to Gut: Foundations of Clearing and Rebuilding with Biocidin – Part 1#617: Microbiome Balance from Mouth to Gut: Protocols for Clearing and Rebuilding with Biocidin – Part 2Visit the podcast website here: VitalityRadio.comYou can follow @vitalitynutritionbountiful and @vitalityradio on Instagram, or Vitality Radio and Vitality Nutrition on Facebook.

The perioperative environment is increasingly shaped by factors that extend beyond traditional pharmacology, requiring anesthesia providers to stay alert to emerging and often underrecognized influences on patient care. One such factor is the growing use of kratom, a plant-derived substance that patients frequently perceive as harmless due to its “natural” origins. However, as highlighted in today's show, this assumption can lead to critical gaps in disclosure, leaving clinicians unaware of a substance that may significantly alter anesthetic management and patient outcomes. Here's some of what you'll hear in this episode:

Tinnitus can be incredibly debilitating. From a Western perspective, it can be caused by constant exposure to loud noise, and there's a strong connection to the kidneys in TCM.

What really goes into the herbal products we rely on every day? In this conversation, Sajah sits down with anthropologist, author, and founder of the Sustainable Herbs Initiative, Ann Armbrecht, to explore the hidden journey of herbs — from field to finished product — and the complex web of relationships, ethics, and decisions that shape their quality.  Sajah and Ann discuss the gap between traditional herbal values and modern industry realities, and what it means to practice integrity in herbal medicine today. This is an invitation to look more deeply — to "see double" — and to connect with the people, plants, and places behind the medicine. Here's what you'll learn in this interview: Why understanding the herbal supply chain matters for both quality and ethics The hidden realities of global sourcing, mechanization, and manufacturing What "seeing double" means—and how it changes your relationship to herbal medicine How working conditions and human care directly impact plant quality The role of certifications, transparency, and traceability (and their limitations) Why relationships—not just sourcing location—are the key to sustainability What the "laral value" of a plant is and how intention shows up in modern herbalism Practical ways to engage more consciously as an herbal consumer or practitioner ———————————— About Ann: Learn more about The Sustainable Herbs Initiative  Check out Ann Armbrecht's book, Following the Herbal Harvest: A Search for the Healing Promise of Plant Medicines at Chelsea Green Books (or find it wherever books are sold). ———————————— 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.

From clinical to spiritual perspectives, we don't just focus on what herbs are "good for," but rather who they are as intelligent beings, and how we can work with them to heal us physically and consciously evolve.   ———————————— ABOUT SAJAH ———————————— Sajah Popham is the author of Evolutionary Herbalism and the founder of the School of Evolutionary Herbalism, where he trains herbalists in a holistic system of plant medicine that encompasses clinical Western herbalism, medical astrology, Ayurveda, and spagyric alchemy. His mission is to develop a comprehensive approach that balances the science and spirituality of plant medicine, focusing on using plants to heal and rejuvenate the body, clarify the mind, open the heart, and support the development of the soul. This is only achieved through understanding and working with the chemical, energetic, and spiritual properties of the plants. His teachings embody a heartfelt respect, honor and reverence for the vast intelligence of plants in a way that empowers us to look deeper into the nature of our medicines and ourselves. He lives on a homestead in the foothills of Mt. Baker Washington with his wife Whitney where he teaches, consults clients, and prepares spagyric herbal medicines.    ———————————— WANT TO FEATURE US ON YOUR PODCAST? ———————————— If you'd like to interview Sajah or Whitney to be on your podcast, click here to fill out an interview request form.

She has devoted her life to that vision by being a humble vessel for the plants to touch people's lives and bring more healing and beauty into the world.   Through her own health challenges and struggles, she experienced the profound healing gifts of plant medicines and then committed her life to helping others reach vibrant levels of health. She specializes in digestive health in her clinical practice through working with herbal medicine, nutrition and lifestyle coaching.

A strange brew that's hard to resist, even for a modern day microbe. In the war on devilish microbes, our weapons are starting to fail us. The antibiotics we once wielded like miraculous flaming swords seem more like lukewarm butter knives. But in this episode, originally released in 2015, we follow an odd couple, of a sort, to a storied land of elves and dragons. There, they uncover a 1,000-year-old secret that makes us reconsider our most basic assumptions about human progress and wonder: what if the only way forward is backward? Special thanks to Steve Diggle, Professor Roberta Frank, Alexandra Reider and Justin Park (our Old English readers), Gene Murrow from Gotham Early Music Scene, Marcia Young for her performance on the medieval harp and Collin Monro of Tadcaster and the rest of the Barony of Iron Bog. Can't get enough of that sweet, sweet antibiotic resistance content? Then you'll be over the moon about next week's release. It's the podcast cut of our most recent installment of our live show series called Viscera. This one features executive editor Soren Wheeler and Avir Mitra, and it's all about how our millenia's-long war against bacteria came to a tipping point in this modern age.
