There's something almost impossible to ignore about bee balm (Monarda spp.). Its flowers burst open like fireworks, its aroma is unmistakably spicy, and when you taste it, you can feel its warmth almost immediately. But this is where bee balm gets especially interesting: despite its intense hotness, it can be an excellent herb for actually dispersing heat.In this episode, Ashley Elenbaas and I explore this beautiful contradiction and the many ways it shows up in bee balm's medicine. We talk about why she keeps dried bee balm right alongside her cooking spices, how a late-night burn led her to reach for this plant, and why she considers small, regular amounts of bee balm to be a great way to support a nervous system that's prone to overwhelm.Ashley also shares her recipe for Bee Balm Honey, a super simple (and delicious!) way to bring bee balm's spiciness into your own kitchen. Download your beautifully illustrated recipe card here!By the end of this episode, you'll know:► The clues to bee balm's medicine that are hidden in its dragon-shaped flowers► Why bee balm is particularly suited for situations where you need to release excess heat (whether that means fevers, burns, tension, or even those “big feelings” that can build up!)► What “diffusive” means in herbal energetics—and what makes bee balm an amazing herb for understanding it► Six herbal preparations for working with bee balm, from tea to culinary use and more!► How Ashley works with bee balm as an aromatic ally for sleep► and so much more…For those of you who don't know her, Ashley Elenbaas, M.Sc., RH (AHG), is a clinical herbalist, educator, and founder of Sky House Herb School. With over 20 years of experience teaching herbal medicine, yoga, and the healing arts, she weaves together traditional Western herbalism, plant energetics, nature-based spirituality, and community care. Ashley is passionate about helping people deepen their relationship with medicinal plants while cultivating thoughtful, heart centered practice. She teaches online and in person, hosts the Sky House Herbs YouTube channel, and lives in Minnesota with her family.Some plants ask us to slow down and listen. Bee balm practically grabs us by the shoulders and says, “Pay attention!” I hope this conversation inspires you to spend some time with this fiery, exuberant plant and discover its many gifts for yourself.----Get full show notes, transcript, and more information at: herbswithrosaleepodcast.comWould you prefer watching this episode?

Today Isaac & AC welcome herbalists Kimberly Gallagher of LearningHerbs and Lauren Morgan of Herbs & Dreams to the show. Lauren recounts starting with a botanical medicine apprenticeship and now runs a community practice, circles, an apprenticeship, and the Herbs & Dreams podcast, weaving dreams into herbal work. Kimberly describes learning herbs alongside her late husband John through apprenticeships and family healing, then building LearningHerbs with remedy kits, Wildcraft, and Herb Fairies. They discuss Kimberly's book The Aphrodisiac and a broadened view of aphrodisiacs (including nervines and nutritives like damiana, oats/oatstraw, rose, cacao, fenugreek), plus plant dreaming, dream incubation (including mugwort), nightmares, and notable plant dreams (marshmallow and hawthorn).

TEACHBACK TUESDAY: AN INTERVIEW WITH AUTHOR KATHY ASHLEY When Kathy Ashley heart about "AI," those letters brought two different words to her mind. Not "artificial intelligence," but Arrogance and Ignorance. This is the kind of AI that leads to an artificial inflation of self, and it's hazardous to our spiritual health. Arrogance is pride on steroids. When you mix arrogance with ignorance, this creates a puffed up conceit that is deceptive. We can become our own worst enemies when we're infected with the dynamic duo of arrogance and ignorance. The antidote to this infection is God's Word. He has the prescription for healing and recovery. "The fear of the LORD is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate."

Herbalists, want to go beyond knowing 20 common herbs and learn how to understand the plants growing around you? Learn how to embody the medicine of the land where you live.

Send us Fan MailThis is a "Flashback" episode of an episode that originally aired in September of 2024.You most likely have seen the word "adaptogen" on some type of herbal product or beverage in the past few years. They are incredible herbs with an intelligence that helps our bodies adapt to stress.The thing is, they are so amazing that many companies use this word to market products that don't actually have adaptogens in them.In this informative episode I introduce listeners to adaptogens, a fascinating class of herbs celebrated for their ability to enhance the body's resilience to stress. And hopefully give some insight into what an adaptogen truly is so that you can be more savvy when buying products with these incredible herbs.The conversation starts with the rich history of adaptogens, from their ancient roots in Ayurveda and Chinese medicine to their discovery in the West during extensive USSR research. Key adaptogens such as ashwagandha, American ginseng, and Rhodiola are highlighted, alongside the criteria that make an herb an adaptogen: non-toxic, non-specific stress response, normalizing effect, and impact on the HPA axis and SAS (sympathoadrenal system). The episode also provides practical advice on choosing reliable adaptogenic products and emphasizes the importance of integrating herbs with a balanced lifestyle. Listeners are encouraged to explore adaptogens further and consider their potential benefits alongside lifestyle changes.In this episode:Introduction to AdaptogensHistory and Discovery of AdaptogensDefining AdaptogensPopular Adaptogens and Their BenefitsUsing Adaptogens WiselyRelated Episodes:Episode 55 - Nervous System Herb AlliesEpisode 53 - The Window of ResilienceReferences: Winston, D., & Maimes, S.

Hibiscus is tart, cooling, beautiful—and so much more than just a refreshing summer drink.Hibiscus (Hibiscus sabdariffa) may be best known as the star ingredient in the tart, ruby-red beverage called jamaica or sorrel, but there is so much more to this beautiful plant! In this episode, Rebecca Fils-Aimé takes us beyond the familiar drink to explore hibiscus as food, medicine, and cultural tradition. Drawing on her Haitian heritage as well as her own herbal studies, Rebecca shares why she loves hibiscus for its cooling, soothing, mucilaginous qualities, how she works with it for cardiovascular and respiratory support, and so many ways to work with the flowers (well, the calyxes to be exact!) and leaves in both the kitchen and the apothecary.Rebecca also shares her recipe for Sorrel Cough Syrup, a simple combination of hibiscus and warming Caribbean spices designed to soothe that irritating, dry cough. (Or if you don't have a cough, just add it to sparkling water for a tasty, refreshing treat!) You can download your beautifully illustrated copy here.By the end of this episode, you'll know:► Why hibiscus is particularly beneficial for dry, irritated respiratory tissues► Several ways to weave hibiscus into your diet—both sweet and savory!► What makes hibiscus so supportive for the heart and cardiovascular system► How this gorgeous flower became such an integral part of Caribbean culture► Surprising ways to include hibiscus in your beauty routine► …and so many more ways to work with hibiscus beyond just a pretty pink drink!For those of you who don't know her, Rebecca Fils-Aimè is a community herbalist, public health practitioner, and health and wellness coach whose practice lies at the intersection of food, kitchen remedies for health, and Black culinary herbalism history. Through her herbalism practice and research, she shares traditions from Black and Indigenous Caribbean people to highlight their contributions to herbalism and food history. Her practice is also guided by the seasons, her Haitian culture, and her Southeastern upbringing. She has a passion for educating communities about herbs as preventative medicine, herbs as self-care, and herbs in food as an accessible way to engage in herbalism.Hibiscus is one of those plants that reminds us that food and medicine don't have to be separate. Sometimes the most nourishing herbal allies are the ones we already know and love—and sometimes, they're hiding in a tall glass of ruby-red refreshment, so perfect on a hot summer day.----Get full show notes, transcript, and more information at: herbswithrosaleepodcast.comWould you prefer watching this episode?

What if a plant we spend so much time pulling off our trees and walls is actually a forgotten medicinal ally?Common ivy (Hedera helix) has a complicated reputation. It's abundant, beautiful, and deeply woven into the European landscape, yet many people think of it as an invasive to eradicate rather than something to learn from. In this episode, herbalist Luke Ó hErodáin reveals the forgotten medicinal traditions surrounding common ivy and why he believes this plant deserves a second look. He shares how ivy became one of his most trusted lung herbs, the traditional preparations that caught his attention, and the fascinating history behind its use in European medicine.Luke also shares the story behind the research project that has become one of his major passions: uncovering and translating the work of the French eclectic herbalists. These forgotten practitioners were exploring whole-plant medicine, sophisticated preparations, and local substitutes for exotic herbs at a time when the medical world was rapidly changing. Their work raises some fascinating questions about what we've lost—and what we might rediscover by looking backward.Ready to explore ivy beyond the garden wall? Luke has shared not one, but four recipes for working with this remarkable plant! You can download your beautifully illustrated recipe card here.By the end of this episode, you'll know:► What makes ivy such a powerful herbal ally for people with deep congestion in the lungs► How Luke works with ivy for burns, scars, cellulite, and other skin concerns► Important cautions to consider before using ivy internally► Surprising ways French herbalists used phytochemistry to inform their herbal practice in the early 1900's► How the rise of modern industrial medicine changed the herbalism landscape practically overnight► and so much more…For those of you who don't know him, Luke Ó hErodáin (Luke Heron), Dip Herb Med, is a medical herbalist based in Ireland and operating his clinic in Cork. He is the current lead of the Herbal Alliance and is actively engaging with professional herbalists in the UK and Ireland to navigate through this digital age through the Herbal Alliance.Before becoming a herbalist, Luke spent a decade in the media and technology industry working in film production, digital marketing and tech deployment, a background that informs his critical perspective on AI and digital ethics. He is an independent researcher focusing on the French Eclectic Doctors, led by Dr. Henri Leclerc (who likely coined the term ‘phytotherapy') and is actively preserving and translating their works. Luke is a foraging instructor dedicated to bridging traditional local and indigenous Irish plant wisdom with modern insights.I hope this conversation leaves you looking a little differently at the plants you pass every day—and perhaps a little more curious about the herbal wisdom hiding in old books, forgotten traditions, and even the plants we've learned to overlook.----Get full show notes, transcript, and more information at: herbswithrosaleepodcast.comWould you prefer watching this episode?

You'd think a 100% terminal diagnosis leaves you only one path, but Jordan Rubin proved otherwise, twice. I sat down with him to unpack how he clawed back from 104 pounds and 69 failed doctors with Crohn's at 19, then beat a 90-day cancer death sentence at 33, and the raw dairy, ancestral-eating, and faith-first framework that came out of both. If you take one thing from this conversation, let it be his "vitamin H", hope, the most deficient nutrient we have, and the first ingredient in any real healing.

August is a Fallow Month for us, so we are dialing back on some of our activities while we focus our attention on coursework production, curriculum development, and - most importantly - hands-on herbalism in the field, kitchen, and apothecary. If you don't know or don't remember what a Fallow Month is, listen to the full explanation in episode 212! Or if you'd prefer some reading, check out Katja's piece If You Really Want to Learn Herbalism, Stop Studying.This week we're airing a replay of episode 248: Can Herbs “Heal”?What does it mean to heal? When are we “healed”? Are there some wounds that can't be healed? If we can't heal – in the sense of achieving “perfect health” – are we failures, as people or as herbalists? In this episode, Katja shares her thoughts on the words and ideas “healing” carries in our culture, offering a critique of their common (and commercialized!) semantic and emotional baggage.Support the showYou can find all of our online herbalism courses at online.commonwealthherbs.com!

Seems like wildfires are everywhere these days. And, the most common thing people will ask an herbalist is, “what herbs do I need for the inhalation of wildfire smoke?” And, they're thinking it's always something to do with the lungs and respiratory health.Which, yes, that's a great start. But, these fires, and their smoke affect so much more than that in our bodies. And, that's what we're digging into with this episode.We're talking about things like:Why thinking of the body as a whole, instead of just one system at a time is important.Using herbs for nervous system supportSupporting the liver, so it can help detoxify our systemsAnd yes, supporting the lungs too.Herbs you'll hear about in this episode are: Hawthorn, Mullein, Licorice, Fennel, Anise Seed, Linden, Milk Thistle, and probably a few more, you'll just have to listen to find out.The thing that a skilled herbalist will do in almost all situations is look beyond the initial issue most folks think you're facing. Because we are beautiful, intricate, complex, and whole beings. And, what may affect one body system, is surely to be having an impact on other systems as well. And, when you learn to think of using herbs in ways like this, you're thinking like an herbalist, and you will have much greater success with herbal remedies.Want to start thinking more like an herbalist, instead of a band-aid fixer?

Supplements and health technologies can support the body in very different ways. In this episode we will talk about how they differ, why delivery methods matter, and how to choose the right approach. When most people think about improving their health, they often think about supplements. Vitamins. Minerals. Herbs. Amino acids. Nutrients. But supplements aren't the only tools available. Today, there are also many different health technologies designed to interact with the body in ways that don't involve taking a pill, powder, or liquid. So what's the difference? And how do you know which approach is right for you? The answer begins with understanding that supplements and health technologies are fundamentally different categories. They may have completely different mechanisms of action and delivery methods. That's why I believe it's important to understand how each works before deciding whether it deserves a place in your overall health approach. How Supplements Work Supplements generally provide the body with substances that it can use. Depending on the supplement, this might include: Vitamins Minerals Amino acids Fatty acids Herbs Enzymes Other nutritional compounds...

Inflammation isn't always the enemy. In fact, it's one of the ways your body protects and heals itself. The real problem is chronic inflammation—the low-grade fire that quietly fuels heart disease, diabetes, arthritis, autoimmune disease, gut issues, accelerated aging, and countless other health problems. In this episode, Dr. Josh Axe reveals the seven foods that reduce inflammation more effectively than supplements and explains why the foods you eat every day are far more powerful than any pill you can take. You'll discover the science behind the Mediterranean diet, why certain foods activate your body's own healing pathways, and the simple dietary changes that can dramatically improve your energy, recovery, immune function, and long-term health. You'll learn: • Why chronic inflammation is the root cause of most chronic diseases • Why food is often more powerful than supplements • The surprising reason fish oil supplements don't always work as well as eating fish • How extra-virgin olive oil acts like a natural anti-inflammatory compound • Why berries, tart cherries, and pomegranates help turn off inflammatory genes • How cruciferous vegetables activate your body's natural detoxification pathways • Why fermented foods are essential for healing the gut • Which nuts and seeds have the greatest anti-inflammatory benefits • How to combine herbs and spices for maximum absorption and effectiveness • Dr. Axe's blueprint for creating anti-inflammatory meals Download Dr. Axe's FREE Anti-Inflammatory Food Guide here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1l14-wCcdPfx3oU3qgjlC7sLmVJcs24NO/view?usp=sharing Uncover what's really happening inside your body with advanced biomarker testing for hormones, inflammation, thyroid function, and metabolism—plus a one-hour consultation with a Senior Health Advisor. → mybloodwork.com Thank you to our sponsors!

Dr. Robin Murphy brings more than four decades of clinical experience to this second part of his discussion on natural remedies and their use in diabetes and other health conditions. He talks about aloe vera, bitter melon, chia seeds, fenugreek, cinnamon, and saffron, including some of the ways these remedies have been prepared and used. He also shares interesting cases from his practice and explains why it is important to look at the whole person rather than focus only on the symptoms. A large part of the discussion focuses on saffron, including its traditional uses, possible benefits, how to recognize authentic saffron, and several memorable cases from his clinical experience.

Born in Grand Rapids, Michigan, he pursued undergraduate studies at the University of Michigan before earning his Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine degree from the National College of Naturopathic Medicine (NCNM) in Portland, Oregon, where he attended on a Hahnemann Scholarship. From 1980 to 1984, he directed the homeopathy program at NCNM and also served on the faculty at Bastyr University. Throughout his career, Dr. Murphy taught homeopathy, Oriental medicine, Tai Chi, and Qigong, helping educate practitioners and students around the world. Dr. Murphy is best known for authoring several influential reference works in homeopathy, including the Homeopathic Medical Repertory (later expanded as Murphy's MetaRepertory), Lotus Materia Medica (now published as Nature's Materia Medica), and Keynote Materia Medica. These texts are widely used by homeopathic practitioners and educational institutions internationally.

Growing Food, Building Abundance, and Working with NatureIn a unique twist, Greg is interviewed by Taylor Luke of the Tales with Tayler Podcast. In this Episode Greg Peterson shares the philosophy and practical systems that have guided more than four decades of growing food in the desert and beyond. From creating an old-growth food forest in Phoenix to building local seed resilience through the Great American Seed Up, he explains how anyone can begin producing food at home. The conversation explores permaculture, fruit trees, seed saving, local food economies, and why understanding where food comes from is one of the most important skills of our time.I've spent a lot of time thinking about what I was going to do for my 1000th episode of the Farm podcast. And was recently interviewed by Tayler Wellman of tales with Tayler. After listening to the episode, I thought it would be a great jumping off point for my 1000th narrative episode. This tells some of my story and she did a really great job with the interview so I asked and she said yes, play it on your podcast. This will give you two opportunities, first to experience a new podcast and second to hear some of my backstory leading into the next 1000 episodes. Enjoy!Our Guest: Taylor hosts "Tales With Taylor," a spirited interview podcast where successful entrepreneurs and business owners share their most captivating stories from childhood to future goals. Each episode blends life-changing advice, nostalgic reflections, and playful humor, as guests open up about the best advice they've ever received, the lessons they wish they'd known sooner, and the legacy they hope to leave behind. Part business wisdom, part storytelling adventure, Tales With Taylor offers a genuine, personal connection to the highs, lows, and hard-won insights of inspiring people in the business world.Taylor is the owner and operator of Financial Potion, a video marketing company based in Mesa, Arizona. Taylor helps businesses and organizations make swift, lasting impressions through tailor-made video marketing, personally guiding every step from scriptwriting to production, editing, and video SEO. Clients consistently praise the process as stress-free and genuinely enjoyable.Key TopicsGreg PetersonUrban FarmUrban Farm PodcastPermacultureFood forestsFruit trees and perennial food productionThe Great American Seed UpSeed saving and home seed banksLocal food economiesDesert gardeningAsheville, North CarolinaTower GardensFarmers marketsRegenerative systemsKey Questions AnsweredWhat was Greg Peterson's favorite harvest?His favorite harvest is food that returns naturally year after year without replanting. Self-seeding crops like basil, parsley, cilantro, kale, nasturtiums, and sweet potatoes transformed his Phoenix property into an old-growth food forest that largely cared for itself.Why are fruit trees such an important investment?Fruit trees are planted once and can provide fresh food for decades. Greg shares stories of century-old citrus trees and explains why fruit trees offer one of the highest long-term returns for home gardeners.What is permaculture?Permaculture is the art and science of working with nature instead of against it. Greg explains how designing landscapes that mimic natural ecosystems creates resilient, productive gardens with less work over time.Why should every household maintain a seed bank?Seeds are the foundation of food security. Greg explains how storing seeds at home strengthens local resilience and inspired the creation of the Great American Seed Up, helping thousands of people build personal seed reserves.Do seeds really expire?Not necessarily. Most expiration dates reflect packaging regulations rather than biological limits. When stored cool, dark, and dry, many seeds remain viable for years—even decades.How can beginners successfully start growing food?Start small with crops you already enjoy eating. Herbs like basil are inexpensive, productive, and easy to grow—even on a sunny windowsill.What if someone doesn't have a yard?Greg recommends Tower Gardens, container gardening, windowsill herbs, and visiting local farmers markets. Food production is possible even in apartments and condos.Why is understanding our food system so important?Knowing where food comes from reconnects people with healthier eating, stronger local economies, and more resilient communities. Growing even a small amount of food changes the way people think about nutrition and sustainability.How can individuals help address climate change?Focus on regenerative practices that work with nature. Growing food, improving soil, supporting local farmers, and creating resilient food systems are practical actions anyone can take.Which book most influenced Greg's thinking?Ishmael by Daniel Quinn profoundly shaped Greg's worldview by challenging assumptions about humanity's relationship with nature and inspiring his lifelong mission of transforming food systems.Episode HighlightsGreg explains how self-seeding plants transformed his yard into an old-growth food forest that produces food with minimal maintenance.Fruit trees are presented as one of the easiest long-term investments for home food production.The story behind the creation of the Great American Seed Up and its mission to build community seed resilience.Why seeds stored properly can remain viable for decades despite printed expiration dates.Lessons learned growing food in both the Arizona desert and the mountains of North Carolina.How Tower Gardens make food production possible for apartment and condo dwellers.The philosophy that nature is regenerative while most human systems are degenerative—and why that must change.Greg's lifelong mission: helping people understand where their food comes from by inspiring them to grow even a small portion themselves.Calls to Action & ResourcesUrban Farm — https://urbanfarm.orgUrban Farm Podcast — https://urbanfarmpodcast.comGreat American Seed Up — https://greatamericanseedup.orgFruit Trees Program — https://fruittrees.orgFree Desert Planting Calendar — https://plantingcalendar.orgLearn about Permaculture — Explore local Permaculture Design Courses (PDCs) at Permaculture.netVisit Your Local Farmers Market — Meet local growers and buy seasonal food directly.Read: Ishmael by Daniel QuinnTales with Taylor Podcast on podcast platforms and HERE on YouTubeTales with Taylor Website - https://taleswithtaylor.comVisit www.urbanfarm.org/999 for the show notes on this episode, and access to our full podcast library!

When wildfire smoke fills the air, supporting the lungs is only part of the picture.Here, I share the three-part strategy I use when formulating an herbal tea for smoky days.► Support the lungs. Learn why I turn to plantain, a soothing demulcent herb, to help calm irritated respiratory tissues and why recent clinical research supports its traditional use.► Support the heart. Wildfire smoke has been linked to increased risks of cardiovascular problems through inflammation and oxidative stress. I explain why herbs like hawthorn and linden are part of my approach.► Support the nervous system. The smoke isn't the only challenge. The worry and fear that accompany wildfire season deserve care too, which is why calming herbs are an important part of the blend.I also share the herbal tea I formulated with hawthorn, hibiscus, plantain, linden, and holy basil to support all three systems together. You can get the recipe here.Important note: No herbal tea is protective against hazardous air quality. During severe smoke events, reducing your exposure and using clean indoor air remain the most effective ways to protect your health.
I don't know about you, but my social media feed is filled with stuff that is supposed to “give me more energy” to get through perimenopause. What does that even mean? Perimenopause isn't causing fatigue for no reason. Your body is doing things: some are new, and some are a sort of inverse callback to your teenage years. Yeah, that's right – menopause is like a second puberty. Fun! This is work. It's like remodeling your house while you live inside it. There's a lot to change, a lot to update, some things to take offline, and all of it happens while you're in the midst of your daily needs for function, repair, healing, and growth. Those never truly stop, but the demands of the remodel can make them all slow down, or get more difficult.In this episode, Katja shares herbs who will do some of the work for you. By reducing inflammation in the blood vessels and in the digestive tract, and by keeping your lymphatic system flowing smoothly, you can free up a lot of resources inside the body so that your internal workload is lower. In a sense they serve to enhance your inner clean-up crews and help them function more efficiently. (It would be nice if they would also clean your actual house, but alas.)It doesn't take stimulants or adaptogens to do this job. We don't always need to solve feeling tired by going to the buzzy herbs.So if you're feeling tied, but you don't even have time to take a nap, at least these herbs can do some of your work for you!Here are the links Katja talked about in this video:The Reproductive Health course, which includes not just peri/menopause, but also everything else – endometriosis, PCOS/PMOS, managing your cycle, and more.

Kava has been praised, feared, celebrated, and misunderstood. So what's the real story behind this remarkable plant?Kava (Piper methysticum) has a reputation that's hard to ignore. Some people swear by it for easing tension and helping them unwind, while others know it only through headlines about safety concerns and controversy. In this episode, herbalist and author Rachelle Robinett joins me to separate fact from fiction and explore why this traditional Pacific Island herb has remained such a beloved ally for thousands of years.Together, we dive into kava's remarkable ability to relax the body while keeping the mind surprisingly clear, unpack where the concerns about liver toxicity actually came from, and explore thoughtful questions about responsible herbalism, sustainability, and what it really means to work with sacred plants. Along the way, Rachelle reveals how herbalism can become so much more than "an herb for a symptom"—it can fundamentally change how we relate to the natural world.Rachelle also shares her recipe for Kava “Old-Fashioned” Mocktail, a sophisticated herbal drink that's perfect for winding down at the end of the day. You can download your beautifully illustrated recipe card here.By the end of this episode, you'll know:► Why kava has earned a permanent place in Rachelle's travel bag, evening routine, and herbal toolkit► The controversy behind kava use—and the real story behind claims of toxicity and rarity► Why traditional preparation methods for kava matter more than most people realize► What makes kava such a great herbal ally for people reducing or avoiding alcohol► One remarkable botanical fact that has shaped kava's relationship with humans for thousands of years► and so much more…For those of you who don't know her, Rachelle Robinett, RH (AHG), is a writer, herbalist, and lifelong naturalist devoted to the art and science of real health. Founder of multidisciplinary wellness companies, she combines traditional medicine, modern insight, and behavior change to help people live more naturally. Her work encourages a return—to self, to nature, and to independent thinking—often challenging the life we've been taught to want. Called “a philosophical voice at the vanguard of natural living,” she is based in New York and Costa Rica and is the author of Naturally: the Herbalist's Guide to Health and Transformation.This conversation with Rachelle is an invitation to look beyond headlines and assumptions, and instead meet kava—and herbalism itself—with greater curiosity, discernment, and wonder.----Get full show notes, transcript, and more information at: herbswithrosaleepodcast.comWould you prefer watching this episode?

We like to sign off our show by saying, “Take care of yourselves, take care of each other, and drink some tea.” It's our favorite little motto and it's a great reminder that herbalism and self-care go right alongside mutual aid!In our episode 283: Vetting Your Herbalism Sources: Red Flags & Green Flags, we talked about how it isn't actually bucking the system to ignore the FDA and FTC laws about “telling & selling”. Neither is it a cool rebellious act to turn away from scientific knowledge, modern medical technologies, or even conventional treatments. They each have their place, and herbalism isn't an ‘alternative' to them in the sense of a dichotomous choice – either herbs or science, either herbalism or medicine. We can fit together, and we get better results when we do.But it's certainly true that conventional medicine has problems, and that the system needs some bucking! A system reliant on consumerism – buying your way to better health – always leaves people out. A lot of people. They need help, and we can help them.The best way to do that is a little surprising: take care of each other. Extend our circle of care outside ourselves, outside our family and housemates, and further out into the world. We are all here together, and we can all support one another. And since we're all herbalists here, let's do it with herbs!Three ways to get started:FREE Emergency Preparedness course – Concise and targeted lessons teach you how to prepare for emergencies ranging from hurricanes to wildfires to heatwaves. Learn to construct a modular, no-frills herbal first aid kit, food reserve, and go-bag (or shelter-in-place bag). Understand herbal wound care and all the steps to take for cuts and burns. Anticipate and prepare for the effects of climate disasters in your community, not only to help yourself, but to help others too.SLIDING SCALE Herbal Community Care Toolkit – This 20-hour video course teaches you safe, inexpensive, and accessible herbs which can make a difference in the most common health concerns in our society today. High blood pressure, diabetes, edema, pain, poor sleep – there are herbs to support people facing all of these challenges and more. They don't need to be expensive, exotic, or risky. They don't need to be “maximum strength” or “100x concentrated”. Gentle, simple, safe herbs can help people you know and love.SLIDING SCALE Accessible Herbalism course – We consider this essential training for clinical herbalists, but you don't have to be one to want this information! Providing care to everyone is challenging, and involves a lot of creativity and skill to find the right resources and get them to the right people – and to do it all without burning out. To do it, we teach strategies to work around resource constraints, addressing the realities of time and energy involved in herbal work. We share our methods for finding funding, improving access to care, and building community support networks: mutual aid for herbalists and the communities they serve.You can go deeper, of course! These are starting points to get you helpful and empowered as soon as possible, while keeping safety first. And don't forget…Everything's on sale in July!All our offerings are self-paced online video courses.

Within the body, Shatavari behaves in a similar way to Ashwagandha. Both adaptogens, these specific herbs work to tonify the body, providing better results the longer they are taken. Shatavari can be taken throughout a woman's life, supporting cycle health and providing additional support as they approach perimenopause and menopause.It is very rare to see a botanical that can support Every Stage of Womanhood.· Reproductive Years· Pregnancy & Postpartum· Lactation· Perimenopause· Menopause· Healthy AgingKey Clinical Findings Perimenopause: -42.6% reduction in menopause symptom scores -29.6% reduction in perceived stress -25.9% reduction in hot flashes -32.8% increase in estradiol -246% greater fatigue improvement versus placebo Menopause: -44.7% reduction in menopause symptom scores -57.9% reduction in hot flashes· Women's Sexual Wellness: -34.2% improvement in FSFI scores· PCOS: -28.6% reduction in ovarian follicle countIt matters where we get our supplements from.

Do your friends ask you, “what's a good herb for…” IBS, or PMS, or fibromyalgia, or whatever is bugging them? If you've ever struggled to answer such a request, you're not alone. It's not just about the difficulty of the pathology, though – it's also about the complexity of the person, and the variability between people.Everyone thinks they can ask “what's a good herb for IBS” and that you should have the answer. (Oops, you might even be thinking about an answer right now!) The question to ask right alongside such a thought is this: is that answer appropriate for the person asking? Remember, every body is different!As herbalists, we need a lot more information than just the name of the problem.One of our favorite mottoes around here is: “people don't take the names of herbs”. It means that you're not giving a good answer if a person asks “what's a good herb for migraines” and you respond “feverfew”. You've left out tons of important details: form, dose, timing, duration, formulation… the list goes on.The other side of the equation would be “people don't take herbs for the names of their symptoms”, or their discomforts, or their diagnoses. There are no “herbs for IBS” in the abstract, or in every individual case.Examples make this point most clearly, so this week's episode of the Holistic Herbalism Podcast is us talking through five different examples of people asking for help with health problems. We describe how we would break those problems down so that we can figure out what the right answer is for them, specifically – not for “someone”, generally.What would we ask first to get a foothold on the issue? What would we observe, and ask the client to observe, as we work to figure out the information we need? How would we construct a protocol and a set of health experiments that will actually help them? Listen in to hear us talk through the process in several different cases.Everything's on sale in July!All our offerings are self-paced online video courses.

Today's episode is about hibiscus energetics – a quick clarification on plant species & parts, and how herbal energetics & actions may differ among them.The hibiscus you find most often in stores or shops or herbal drinks is Hibiscus sabdariffa, and it's the specific part of the flower called the calyx.The calyx of Hibiscus sabdariffa is distinct from those of other species in the genus. From this species, this part is fleshy, red, and sour. These characteristics are signals to us. The red comes from anthocyanins, and indicates antioxidant/anti-inflammatory and blood-vessel-stabilizing actions; the sour means draining to excess fluid, and cooling to excess heat. Energetically, then, it's cooling, drying, tonifying.This is also the part with greater evidence for impacts on reducing cholesterol levels, triglycerides, and blood pressure. There is some evidence that hibiscus can lower blood sugar, as well. This part has an interaction with the antimalarial drug chloroquine – but this is also true of lemonade and other acidic drinks, not a uniquely hibiscus problem. Almost all discussion of and research about hibiscus revolves around H. sabdariffa calyx.Other species of Hibiscus don't produce that fleshy calyx. The leaves and flower petals of H. sabdariffa itself, and the leaves and flowers of other Hibiscus species (e.g. the rose of Sharon, H. syriacus and rose mallow, H. rosa-sinensis), are more similar to the herb marshmallow & other members of the mallow family. They are cooling, moistening, and relaxant, with a mucilaginous quality. They can help with dry coughs, sore throats, dehydration, and similar dry conditions.So to review: all parts of all species are cooling. Leaf & flower are moistening & relaxant. H. sabdariffa calyx is drying & tonifying. You can compare the H.sab calyx to rose hips, and the leaves & flowers to marshmallow.It's important to keep this distinction in mind whenever discussing “hibiscus”!All this illustrates a fundamental truth of herbalism, very clearly: plant species, part of plant, and other specific details about an herb can make a big difference in how we work with it, and what it can accomplish. So, don't let these details slip past you! They could make the difference between a remedy that does the job, and one that lets you down.For further info on hibiscus:HHP 191: Herbs A-Z: Hibiscus & Hypericumimages of Hibiscus sabdariffa calyx at IPlantzHibiscus profile at Herbal RealityAnd for more high-quality education about herbs, with all the necessary details and nuances: learn with us!Everything's on sale in July!All our offerings are self-paced online video courses.
