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. With perspectives gleaned from traditional Western herbalism, Ayurveda, Chinese Medicine, Alchemy, Medical Astrology, and traditional cultures from around the world, The Plant Path provides unique insights, skills and strategies for the practice of true holistic herbalism. 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.

Leslie Lekos: Herbalist at Wildroot Botanicals by KGMI News/Talk 790

In this episode, I'm wrapping up my Goddess series by diving into the world of the Modern Goddess—what she meant to our Neolithic ancestors and how she still lives in us today. Inspired by my journey through Old Europe and the work of archeomythologist Marija Gimbutas, I explore goddess-worshiping cultures and the rich symbolism they left behind—like the snake, the egg, and sacred water—as guides for understanding cycles of life, death, fertility, rest, and regeneration.But this isn't just a look at ancient history. I share practical, grounded ways to embody the goddess in your daily life today—through community care, seasonal and cyclical living, everyday rituals, and even the herbal allies I keep close (sometimes literally in my pockets!). If you're longing to reconnect with the Earth, slow down, and live in a more regenerative rhythm, this episode is an invitation to awaken the goddess within and bring her spirit into the heart of your modern life.

Is functional medicine really the answer for gut health? Or are we just trading one pill-for-every-ill model for another—this time with supplements?In this candid episode of The Herbalist's Path, I'm joined by Dr. Nikki DiNezza—chiropractor, nutritionist, and self-proclaimed “gut microbiome queen.” Nikki shares her journey from chronic pain to gut healing, and how functional medicine helped... until it didn't.We explore what functional medicine often gets wrong, the dark side of supplement-heavy protocols, and why herbalism offers a more intuitive, affordable, root-cause approach.We also laugh, talk poop (obviously), and nerd out on herbs, microbiomes, and tuning into your body's wisdom. If you're tired of cutting more foods or popping more pills, this one's for you.

“US GLOBAL CURRENTS Teeter-Totter Reality” An Astrological Perspective.“The point of balance on the teeter-totter involves give and take. At this moment in history, a caravan of outer planets begins shifting signs. We have never experienced such a concoction of changing energetic realms. Introduced with Pluto Aquarius ingress just six months ago in November followed by the north node shifting into Pisces mid-January. Modern outer planets, Uranus and Neptune, rule those signs. Both of which are part of this current caravan. Neptune entered the zodiac start at 0°Aries a day before the Solar eclipse. Traditional rulers Saturn and Jupiter for Aquarius and Pisces move into new signs next. Completing this ingress train, Uranus transits into Gemini early July. Astrology reflects the sky patterns as planets transit through zodiac degrees, changing angles to other planets. According to the Hermetic code life reflects that above so below and vice versa. In fact, the idea goes on to say that what we experience and feel within is reflected without or externally, and vice versa,” said Sue Minahan, founder, and host of the weekly show. “The times in the USA and abroad echo these dynamic archetypal transitions. The cosmic map continues its predestined cycle orbiting. However, for us here on earth, the waves rock us into yet new patterns still unknown. Humanity holds free will unlike the determined cycles orbiting.”Join Sue Rose Minahan of Kailua-Kona, Big Island of Hawaii featuring Justin Crockett Elzie of Port Angeles, Washington, and Robert J Pacitti of Penn Run, Pennsylvania.

What if the plants around you are trying to talk to you—and all you need to do is trust yourself enough to listen?In this heart-centered episode of The Herbalist's Path, I chat with Lauren Almquist of HeartSpace Herbals & Garden Design about the deeply personal and transformative journey of connecting with plants. From childhood rose water magic to calming the mind with Blue Vervain, Lauren shares her path and reminds us that you don't have to “know it all” to be an herbalist—you just have to show up with curiosity, presence, and love.

Mother, Wife, Acupuncturist, Herbalist and Owner of Five Leaves Acupuncture.

Herbalists don't just treat symptoms—they listen, personalize, and heal at the root.In this episode, we explore what makes herbal medicine uniquely powerful compared to conventional healthcare. Mel shares why herbalists take the time to hear your whole story—offering individualized, compassionate care instead of one-size-fits-all fixes.You'll hear how:Western medicine often masks symptoms with prescriptionsFunctional medicine can fall into “shotgun herbalism”Herbalists create truly personalized protocols by understanding your full picture—body, mind & spiritTwo people with IBS might need totally different herbsHealing relationships (not rushed visits) lead to real transformation

Episode 90 features a conversation with Ruth Shelton, The Empirical Herbalist. For over two decades, Ruth has cultivated a life devoted to the plants—growing, foraging, formulating, and teaching throughout the Midsouth. Together we explore what it means to be in relationship with plants, how food history intertwines with healing, and the spiritual intelligence of the natural world. Ruth shares personal stories, practical guidance, and soulful reflections on how plants can guide, teach, and nourish us on every level. She explains what initially drew her to herbalism, and how plants have become sacred teachers and allies in her life. She also shares her perspective on the spiritual and energetic aspects of herbalism, how to begin working with plants through ritual and meditation, and why honoring the cultural roots of food and herbal practices is vital for true healing. Towards the end we talk about the importance of reclaiming food history in herbalism, how overlooked traditions can offer potent medicine, and why reconnecting with ancestral plant knowledge is a radical act of remembrance.Find Ruth at:theempiricalherbalist.comInstagram: @empiricalherbal Facebook: The Empirical Herbalist

In this episode, Phi chats with Nelly Kalla, with a Functional Nutritionist, Herbalist and Holistic Health Coach who took her healing into her own hands after struggling with psoriasis. We explore the deep connection between gut health, genetics, and emotional well-being—unpacking how childhood environment, parental influence and even the womb experience shape our long-term health. Nelly also speaks about her experience running a product and service based business too. If you're ready to rethink what healing looks like, this episode is packed with wisdom you won't want to miss.

She shares how these conditions were not just physical but deeply tied to emotional wounds—especially anger and a lack of security from childhood. We explore how the environment we are born into, along with the role of our parents and even our genetic gut biome, shapes our health from the very beginning.She shares why gut healing is often about simplicity—doing less rather than overloading the body with excessive supplements or diets. We also discuss common digestive issues, like bloating, and how to support the body in a way that actually works, rather than following trends that may not be effective for everyone. With so much conflicting advice on social media, she helps break down myths around self-diagnosing and the overwhelming flood of health trends that often cause more confusion than clarity.Beyond gut health, we explore the unseen toxins that impact our well-being—from environmental chemicals to everyday beauty products. Nelly started her product business as a teenager whilst having her own YouTube channel: a 100% clean, chemical-free approach to beauty and skincare. She explains why what we put on our bodies is just as important as what we put in them, and how detoxing from harmful products can be a key part of overall health.Throughout her years running her own business, Nelly also shares what it's like to build a career in holistic wellness—balancing education, entrepreneurship and personal healing. Whether you're curious about holistic nutrition, gut health, emotional well-being, or how to navigate the wellness world with discernment, this episode is packed with insight. If you're ready to take your healing into your own hands and approach health from a truly holistic perspective, this conversation is one you won't want to miss. Be Well with Nel - Phi Dang - The Roadmap to Living Your Best Life Nelly and Phi talk all things life, spirituality & human design! We explore what human design actually is and how you can gain some clarity looking into your own chart and so many other juicy topics like Saturn returns and what to expect collectively over the next few years.

Fukiko Ostensen is a Steam Therapist and Founder of Poca Poca. She is an herbalist born and raised in the Japanese countryside, now based in the Catskill region nestled within pristine nature. Ever since she arrived in this region in 2018, she has been learning about medicinal properties of various plants through the Hudson Valley herbal community and earning her herbalist certification from Ecoversity.After studying and earning a bachelor's degree in Psychology and Environmental Science in the United States and living abroad in Nepal for 4 years, Fukiko discovered her true passion in educating and working with other women to help heal from women's physical and emotional issues that are often ignored, and preventing them from being the best and healthiest versions of themselves. Utilizing wildcrafted and organically grown medicinal herbs combined with ancestral Japanese herbal steam practice, she supports women's health and spiritual nourishment that can be accessible to all women as part of their self-care routine. When she is not offering herbal steam service to clients, you can find her harvesting in nature, making plant medicines, spending quality time with her family and friends, and being engaged in community activities.Today, we learn about Fukiko's path to her current work, her early life in Japan and her winding adventure to the Hudson Valley. She shares details about the steam therapy she offers, how it is healing and nourishing to the pelvic region and can improve the vital vaginal flora. She's collaborating with Mary Evelyn Pritchard on a special one day retreat in the Hudson Valley on May 10th.

Katja writes…Today a student sent me a question and it was so important, i asked her if i could (anonymously) share it, because i know other people are wondering this too.She wrote:"I wanted to ask for any advice or your thoughts on how to handle being a plus size herbalist.I am plus sized. Though I am currently in working on a healthier life style that includes using herbs, I feel like when people see me or see that Im plus sized that they may not want to work with me or any of my products.I feel like this is my calling I have fallen in love with herbs and how they naturally work with in the body. but I feel like this could possibly hinder me from even opening my own practice one day. I kinda feel alone in this due to most of the herbalist I see on social media are very fit and “healthy”.Am I wrong to want to be an herbalist even though I am also going through a battle and journey with my weight?"The bottom line is: we need you. We need plus-sized herbalists. We need everyone, no matter where you are in your journey, whether you're small or big or short or tall or thin or fat or disabled or abled or sedentary or athletic or anything else.And the other bottom line is that weight and health are not the same thing. I know that society has all these ideas about what is “good” and “healthy” but that doesn't mean they're true. You can be healthy and big! You can be healthy and small! You can be unhealthy and be small or big too!We're all just trying to get through our day, and we're all in the body we're in. You don't have to get thin to get healthy, so let's make our bodies healthy now, regardless of what size or shape they are. And let's love them too because bodies are pretty amazing actually!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!

"The next level of detoxification is energetics and emotions, not just the physical organs. Because if you haven't addressed the suppressed anger of your life, do you think your liver is actually going to let those toxins go? No, it's going to stay stuck." - Dr. Kevin Preston In This Episode, Dr. Kevin Preston Uncovers: [01:10] Healing The Heart Dr. Kevin Preston 597 Dr. Kevin Preston | The Emotional Roots of Disease: How Progressive Chinese Medicine Liberates Stuck Energy + Heals Generational Trauma Why so many people have big breakthroughs after going through intense struggle.

Leave Wellness + Wisdom a Review on Apple Podcasts Power Quotes From The Show The Liver Is Processing Collective Trauma "We're moving from a place as a human species that was so mentalized into feeling our body more. No wonder the liver is under so much strain because it's being asked to do a lot. It's being asked to process our cumulative trauma as a culture, as a society, as well as massive amounts of chemical toxins. The amount of things that people have coming up to be cleansed and purified matches the collective energy on the planet at the same time." - Dr. Kevin Preston Why Detox Is Necessary "There are a lot of toxins in the environment and our bodies are going to have to respond to that in some way. We are built to detox a lot, but when we stress our detox pathways over and over and over again, by overwhelming amounts of toxins coming in, they get fatigued. They need a rest. They need a break. But if we don't give the body a break of incoming toxins, it's not long before those filters get stuck." - Dr. Kevin Preston Combining Different Healing Modalities "Let's get you doing a bit of breathwork. Let's get you seeing a somatic therapist because you're holding so much rage and anger right now. Your liver is like a clenched fist that I could try and soften with some herbs, but you're probably going to have a much greater and faster effect addressing the nervous system. And then let's start processing some of the physical stuff. Let's do some acupuncture, get a massage, or maybe get some lymphatic drainage." - Dr. Kevin Preston Links From Today's Show  Dr. Kevin Preston 597 Dr. Kevin Preston | The Emotional Roots of Disease: How Progressive Chinese Medicine Liberates Stuck Energy + Heals Generational Trauma Atomic Habits by James Clear The Gene Keys by Richard Rudd Consumer Reports urges USDA to remove Lunchables From National School Lunch Program 624 Teal Swan | Ancestral Healing: Multidimensional Genetics, Conscious Parenting + The Impossible Task of Single Mothers 481 Scott Jackson | Rewire Yourself: How To Create A Life You Love With Freedom From Subconscious Sabotage Zach Bush MD Charles Eisenstein The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho 692 Paul Chek | Spirit Gym: How To Find The Truth of Your Soul + Live Your Dream Josh's Trusted Products | Up To 40% Off Shop All Products Biohacking⁠ MANNA Vitality - Save 20% with code JOSH20 HigherDOSE - 15% off with the code JOSH15 PLUNGE - $150 off with discount code WELLNESSFORCE Pulsetto - Save 20% with code "JOSH" SaunaSpace - 10% off with discount code JOSH10 Ultrahuman Ring Air - 10% off with code JOSH Wellness Test Kits Choose Joi - Save 50% on all Lab Tests with JOSH Blokes - Save 50% on all Lab Tests with JOSH FertilityWize Test by Clockwize - Save 10% with code JOSH Tiny Health Gut Tests - $20 off with discount code JOSH20 VIVOO Health Tests - Save 30% off with code JOSH SiPhox Health Blood Test - Save 15% off with code JOSH Nutrition + Gut Health Organifi - 20% off with discount code WELLNESSFORCE SEED Synbiotic - 25% off with the code 25JOSHTRENT
