A quote attributed to Hippocrates says “all disease begins in the gut.” No surprise, then, that gut-heal tea is a major part of our practice! We work with this formula – or better said, this schema for creating individualized formulae – very, very often. It's not only a ‘digestive' blend, it's also a nervine formula: it operates at the nexus between the digestive and nervous systems.But we don't prepare it the same way every time! Variation is essential to make a blend that best suits a person's body and needs. Today's episode of the Holistic Herbalism Podcast is all about this flexibility in formulation.We can adjust the blend based on the person's energetics, the desired actions of the herbs, and special affinities they have. While we must avoid creating a ‘kitchen sink' of insufficiently intentional herbs, there's plenty of room for addressing the specific patterns in each person.Here are the specific versions of gut-heal tea formulae we explored in this episode:“the original” gut-heal teacalendula (Calendula off.) flowerplantain (Plantago major) leafpeppermint (Mentha piperita) leafchamomile (Matricaria recutita) flowerginger (Zingiber officinale) rhizomefennel (Foeniculum vulgare) seedlicorice (Glycyrrhiza glabra) roota gut-heal tea for the holidays1 part calendula (Calendula off.)1 part chamomile (Matricaria recutita)1/2 part rose petals (Rosa spp.)1/2 part yarrow (Achillea millefolium)1 part damiana (Turnera diffusa)1 part wood betony (Stachys off.)1/2 part fennel (Foeniculum vulgare)1/2+ part ginger (Zingiber off.)5 or 6 cardamom pods (Elettaria cardamomum)katja's current gut-heal teaself-heal (Prunella vulgaris)chamomile (Matricaria recutita)betony (Stachys off.)catnip (Nepeta cataria)ginger (Zingiber off.)tulsi (Ocimum sanctum)ryn's current gut-heal teayarrow (Achillea millefolium)saint john's wort (Hypericum perforatum)centaury (Centaurium erythraea)peppermint (Mentha x piperita)ginger (Zingiber off.)plantain (Plantago major)catnip (Nepeta cataria)fennel (Foeniculum vulgare)rooibos (Aspalathus linearis)jiaogulan (Gynostemma pentaphyllum)gotu kola (Centella asiatica)lungwort (Pulmonaria off.)We dive into gut-heal tea most fully in our Digestive Health course, though as you'll understand after you've heard this episode, it's also really relevant to Neurological & Emotional Health.For more principles & strategies of formulation, check out our Fundamentals of Formulation course!

Have you ever walked past something every single day and somehow never noticed it? Yep… me too. In this episode of the Visibly Fit Podcast, we're talking about healing tools that are hiding in plain sight — the simple, everyday things you probably already have at home that can support your health in powerful ways.I kick things off with a funny story about my husband's missing LARQ bottle (because who loses something that's literally right in front of their face?). But that moment reminded me of something deeper: so many of us overlook the most effective healing modalities because they seem too simple or too ordinary. We assume health has to be complicated, expensive, or high-tech, when in reality, God has already provided us with so many tools right where we are.I hope that this conversation opens your eyes a little wider to your home, your backyard, and even your everyday routines. Because healing isn't always found in something new… sometimes it's found in what you've been walking past all along.Chapters[00:00] Podcast Preview[01:22] Welcome + The “Lost” LARQ Bottle Story[04:15] Hidden in Plain Sight: The Deeper Lesson[06:08] Hot Potato Remedy for Sore Throats[08:00] Saltwater, Lemon, Thyme & Peppermint Gargle[08:42] Pine Needle Tea & Its Powerful Benefits[10:36] Purslane: The Wild Weed That Fuels Energy[12:54] Milk Thistle + Dandelion Root Liver Detox Tea[15:11] Onions in the Socks to Reduce Fever Naturally[17:40] Cabbage Wraps for Joint Pain & Inflammation[19:09] DIY Brain Fog Blend with Pumpkin Seeds & Herbs[21:06] Parsley Tea for UTI Support[22:39] Aloe Vera: Skin Healing & Everyday Uses[23:54] Epsom Salt Baths for Magnesium + Inflammation[25:05] Baking Soda for Heartburn Relief[26:11] Rice Compress for Hot/Cold Therapy[27:10] Towels, Broomsticks & Paper Plates for Home Workouts[30:15] Mason Jars & Pantry Hacks for Healthy Living[34:00] Citrus Peel Aromatherapy[34:56] Final Thoughts: What Are You Overlooking in Your Life?Resources mentioned:FREE Green Drink Recipe: liveimmune.comConnect with me: wendy@wendiepett.com More FREE Resources visit wendiepett.comP.S.

In today's episode, I'm diving into a topic I've been thinking about a lot lately: the deep relationship between our nervous system, endocrine system, and digestive system—and how these three powerful systems work together to shape our mood climate.We often talk about emotions as if they are our mood, but they're not the same. Emotions come and go like shifting weather patterns, while mood is more like the long-term climate of our inner world. In this video, I explore what actually influences our mood, how our physiological systems interact, and why understanding this triad can give us more tools for emotional regulation, mental health, and overall well-being.I also share why the choices we make in the heat of an emotional moment can shape our longer-term mood, and how becoming aware of these patterns can help us cultivate more stability, resilience, and self-understanding.We will focus on three adaptogens which specifically address the mood triangle:- Rhodiola- Tulsi- SchisandraIf you've ever wondered why your mood lingers long after an emotion has passed, or how your body's internal systems contribute to how you feel day after day, this conversation will give you a clearer, more empowered perspective.

In this episode, Laura and Chay chat with Claire, an allotmenteer from Portchester in Hampshire, known online as Harvest and Home UK. Claire's allotment journey began just four years ago when she and her husband, Trev, decided on a whim to apply for a plot—despite having no prior gardening experience. Like so many who discover the world of allotments, they quickly became hooked.Since then, their passion has continued to grow.

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?

Worried about what happens to your herbs when frost arrives? In this episode you'll learn which herbs survive winter outside, which to bring indoors, and simple steps to protect them. We'll cover pruning timing, zone hardiness, and indoor care so you go into winter with confidence.

Stop heavy pruning 4–6 weeks before first frost; save shaping for spring. Cold + wet kills faster than cold alone—prioritize drainage and light mulch after first freeze. For borderline zones, protect rosemary from wind; use frost cloth or natural boughs. Bringing herbs indoors? Use bright light, let soil dry slightly between waterings, and check for pests.

In this episode of my Herb of the Month series, I explore Cragaegus spp. Hawthorne, or Hawthorn—a plant that has long stood at the threshold between the wild and the cultivated, the seen and unseen.

From easing hot flashes to calming muscle tension, black cohosh has long been a trusted ally for cycles of change.In this episode, I'm joined by herbalist, author, and Appalachian plant steward Patricia Kyritsi Howell for a fascinating deep dive into one of the forest's most mysterious and misunderstood herbs: black cohosh (Actaea racemosa). Patricia shares how this powerful woodland plant first “brought her back to herself” during a time of personal healing—and how that experience shaped decades of herbal practice and advocacy. Together, we explore the magic, medicine, and conservation of a plant that's as beautiful as it is complex, weaving in folklore, insights from Traditional Chinese Medicine, and Patricia's hard-earned wisdom from years in the Appalachian mountains.Patricia recently finished updating her beautiful book on native Appalachian herbs, and as part of this interview she has generously included an excerpt from the book. You can download your copy of the black cohosh herbal monograph from Patricia's book here.By the end of this episode, you'll know:► Five ways that black cohosh can ease symptoms of PMS and menopause► Benefits of black cohosh beyond its use as a “women's herb”► How this North American plant shares ancient lineage with herbs from China—and how it's used differently in Western and Chinese traditions► How to harvest black cohosh in a way that preserves (and even increases!) the plant population for future generations► and so much more…For those of you who don't know her, Patricia Kyritsi Howell is a renowned clinical herbalist, teacher, and author based in the mountains of northeast Georgia. She's the author of the newly expanded and updated Medicinal Plants of the Southern Appalachians: Second Edition, a richly illustrated guide to the use of 44 herbs native to eastern North America. A respected voice in the herbal community, Patricia supports emerging practitioners in clinical herbalism through her virtual course, Crafting Your Herbal Practice.

In this episode of the PCOS Repair Podcast, you'll discover how saw palmetto can play a valuable role in supporting hormone balance for women with PCOS. Saw palmetto is best known for its anti‑androgen properties, which reduce excess male hormones like testosterone that contribute to symptoms such as acne, unwanted hair growth, and hair thinning. You'll learn how this herbal supplement works and when it may be worth discussing with your healthcare provider as part of your PCOS management plan.What Makes Saw Palmetto Unique for Women with PCOSSaw palmetto is derived from a palm tree native to the southeastern United States, and its berries have been used in traditional medicine for centuries. In this episode, you'll learn how this herb doesn't just lower testosterone levels but rather blocks an enzyme called 5‑alpha‑reductase, which converts testosterone into its more potent form, dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT is often the culprit behind hair loss, oily skin, acne, and excessive facial or body hair—making saw palmetto a potential natural ally for managing these common PCOS symptoms.When Saw Palmetto Might Be Right for YouYou'll discover when saw palmetto can be most helpful, typically once you've stabilized your root‑cause health through nutrition, movement, and overall hormone balance, yet still struggle with lingering androgenic symptoms. It's important to note that saw palmetto isn't suitable for those trying to conceive or during pregnancy, as it can affect hormone activity. This episode explains why it's not a fertility‑safe option and provides insight into when it can fit safely into your overall wellness plan.How Saw Palmetto Works in the BodyIn this discussion, you'll learn how saw palmetto acts gently on the hormonal system, offering a softer alternative to stronger pharmaceutical approaches. Rather than drastically lowering testosterone, it helps fine‑tune hormonal activity by preventing testosterone from converting into DHT. You'll also hear why lab results don't always tell the full story, hormonal “normal” ranges vary greatly, and sometimes small shifts can create big changes in how your body feels.In this episode, you'll learn how saw palmetto can be a valuable part of a holistic approach to PCOS when used correctly. It's not a magic fix, but it can help soften stubborn symptoms of high androgens when combined with balanced nutrition, stress management, and movement. To make supplement decisions easier, you're invited to download the free PCOS Supplement Guide, which includes trusted brands and a 20% discount through Fullscript for podcast listeners.You can take the quiz to discover your root cause herePCOS Supplement GuideLet'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-170

Elderberry syrup isn't everything an herbalist has to offer to someone suffering from a cold, the flu, COVID, RSV, or any of the other respiratory ailments to which we humans are susceptible. Despite being the first to come to many minds when asked if they're prepared for winter illnesses, we encourage you to broaden your view both of what elder does, and what herbs can do.Elderberry is famous for inhibiting viruses by interfering with their capacity to replicate. Elderberry constituents have been shown in petri-dish studies to bind the neuraminidase ‘spike' on the virus. It can therefore reduce the virus' capacity to ‘break into' our cells and convert them into virus-making factories.Sounds good! Note, however, that this particular mode of action was identified through in vitro studies. The limitation here is that the required concentration of those constituents may not be attained in our bloodstream when we ingest elderberry syrup. It may not reach the tissues which are under attack by the virus. So while this is an interesting mechanism of action – and one we've taught about often when discussing elderberry – we now consider it as less relevant to the impacts of elderberry on viral illness.So what matters more? The effects of elderberry on inflammatory patterns in the body. An efficient immune response includes inflammatory and anti-inflammatory actions, both at the right times and in the right amounts; elderberry supports this. And here's the good news: so do other berries! Every berry with deep pigmentation – blueberry, blackberry, cranberry, serviceberry, aronia berry, and many more – will work to improve inflammation management within the body. At the same time, they'll enhance vascular integrity and flexibility (particularly important given the capacity of COVID to damage these tissues).So elder isn't the only berry who can help us. And berries aren't the only supportive herbs, either – nor are herbs the end of our options! First of all, elder offers flowers as much as berries, and those are helpful for managing fever.Working with elder in formula with other herbs – like our homemade winter elixir – is an excellent way to enhance its actions. But there are also plenty of good herbs beyond elderberry syrup, including decongestants like sage, expectorants like elecampane, and aromatics like pine. Last but not least: nourishing food, gentle movement, and restorative sleep can each be just as important as any herbal remedies we choose.Listen to the episode for a COUPON CODE to get our Cold & Flu course for only $20!Herbal Remedies for Cold & Flu teaches you everything you need to know to conquer a cold or fight off the flu.

In this episode, I explore one of the most fascinating relationships in the body — the gut-brain axis — and how our digestion and mental health are intimately connected. As a clinical herbalist and a practitioner of plant spirit medicine, I've seen how tending the gut can calm the mind, lift the heart, and bring us back into balance.We'll look at the science behind this connection — how the vagus nerve, neurotransmitters, and the gut microbiome shape our mood, focus, and emotional resilience. I'll also share how stress and inflammation disrupt these pathways, and what we can do to restore communication between the gut and brain.

We talk immune-first strategy, why antibiotics often fall short in chronic cases, how to protect the gut, and a stepwise plan that reduces flare risk and builds confidence. Episode snapshot Dr. Rawls explains why stealth microbes like Borrelia, Bartonella, and Babesia grow slowly and hide in tissues, which is why a quick-fix antibiotic approach often disappoints in chronic illness. We discuss a four-phase healing framework — prehabilitation, assist the immune system, rehabilitation, and maintenance (PARM) — and how a gradual, system-calming on-ramp helps patients tolerate protocols without crashing. We also dig into gut protection, community support, and how AI can speed education and research. What you will learn Why “assist the immune system” beats “kill at all costs” for chronic Lyme Stealth microbe biology and why slow growth changes the treatment playbook Antibiotic overuse risks including microbiome injury and antibiotic resistance Gut and detox support as foundations for energy, sleep, and resilience A stepwise entry to treatment that reduces flares and anxiety Key herbs with evidence for tick-borne infections and immune modulation Community and education as levers for consistency and long-term success How AI tools can accelerate research, writing, and practical guidance Key topics and takeaways Four phases of recovery: prehab, assist, rehab, maintenance Antibiotics in chronic Lyme: may disrupt the gut before meaningfully impacting slow-growing pathogens Herbal strategy: sustained pressure over time with immune support Gradual on-ramp: calm the nervous system first, then gut and detox, then stronger antimicrobials Team sport: combine self-care, educated use of providers, and moderated community support Herbs and supports mentioned Antimicrobial herbs: Japanese knotweed, Chinese skullcap, Cryptolepis, cat's claw, garlic Immune-modulating adaptogens: reishi, cordyceps Supportive nutrients: B vitamins, minerals, NAC, glutathione Formats: capsules and tinctures were discussed, including products like Advanced Biotic and Biome Boost within larger protocols Patient-friendly pacing Months 1–2: calm sympathetic overdrive, improve sleep, stabilize Months 3–4: protect gut, support detox, keep gentle antimicrobial pressure Months 5–6: advance to stronger combinations when the body is ready Ongoing: measure progress, maintain gain, prevent backsliding Notable quotes “The immune system always wins the game. Your job is to assist it.” “Stealth microbes grow slowly and hide in tissues. The strategy has to match the biology.” “Education and a supportive community reduce fear and make consistency possible.” Resources and links Watch the video version of this podcast interview on YouTube Read our NYFW Recap: Tick Boot Camp models at Project Labcoat and Why it Matters for Lyme Awareness, Research, and Funding

We've been running a clinical herbalism mentorship program of one kind or another for more than fifteen years. We have some thoughts! Today's episode is all about our model for an herbal mentorship, what we think it needs to include, and how it's structured to benefit our students and clients most fully.For context, we do have prerequisites to join mentorship – you need to have your herbal know-how dialed in before you can join! Completing our Family Herbalist and Community Herbalist programs, and performing well on the exams, is the baseline. Our mentorship students are also working through the Clinical Herbalist coursework concurrently, because mentorship is less about knowledge and more about communication, connection, strategy, and practicality.Our students participate – first as observers, then as clinicians with faculty backup, then on their own – in our Free Clinic and Student Clinic sessions each month. We hold roundtable meetings with them after each of these events, so that everyone can share their cases and get feedback or suggestions. When they're ready to conduct their own sessions, we roleplay clients whose health issues – or personalities! – present a helpful challenge for that student. In this way they get prepared to take on whatever may come.We also work with our students to get their systems & marketing on point. It may not be what attracted you to herbalism in the first place, but if you want to be a clinician, you're running a small business! You need these skills in order to sustain your work for the long haul, so we see them as equally important to formulation strategies or protocol construction.Overall, our goal is to provide a clear path, with supports all along the way, toward greater independence and confidence as a clinical herbalist.If you'd like to walk this path and you're starting at the beginning, check out our Family Herbalist and Community Herbalist programs! They'll get you fully prepared to enter into clinical training.Like all our offerings, these bundles of self-paced online video courses come 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.
