Podcasts about Northeast School

I've been wanting to have 7Song on the podcast for a really long time now, so it was exciting to finally get to sit and chat with him. 7Song is well known for his work in first aid and disaster relief, and our conversation touched on many different aspects of this work. People often want to help when there's been a natural disaster like a hurricane, wildfire, or flooding, and 7Song shared some of his best tips on how herbalists can help, along with some of his favorite herbs to have on hand for first aid situations.One specific health situation 7Song discussed was smoke inhalation due to wildfires – sadly, something that has become all too common these days. He gave his number one tip for what to do if you're exposed to wildfire smoke (hint: it has nothing to do with herbs!) and shared his guide on Smoke Inhalation and Herbal Medicine with us. You can download your copy of this fantastic handout here: https://bit.ly/4m3DqoeBy the end of this episode, you'll know:► How 7Song got involved with herbal first aid and disaster relief► The five most common health issues 7Song deals with when giving first aid at large gatherings► What herbalists can do to help with disaster relief – and more importantly, what NOT to do!► How herbs can help your body recover from smoke inhalation► and so much more…For those of you who don't know him, 7Song has long been entranced by the non-human natural world, especially herpetology and botany. He also wants to be helpful in the human community, and herbal medicine feels like a good marriage of these two interests.He is the director and main teacher of the Northeast School of Botanical Medicine, which he started in 1992. He is the Director of Holistic Medicine and a practicing clinic herbalist at the Ithaca Free Clinic, an integrated free clinic that includes both conventional and less-conventional modalities. He is one of the clinic's founders, which opened its doors in 2006.

In this episode, I'm sharing five simple (but not always easy!) ways to deepen your connection with herbs as part of your personal healing journey. These practices may seem straightforward, but their true power comes from consistency and patience over time. Whether you're new to herbalism or have been working with plants for years, these steps will help you build a more meaningful and intuitive relationship with herbs.The five key ways to connect are:1. Grow Herbs – Cultivating plants at home fosters a hands-on, sensory relationship.2. Learn Botanical Names – Knowing an herb's true name deepens understanding and respect.3. Observe a Single Plant Through the Seasons – Watching its life cycle brings insight into its nature and uses.4. Study One Herb for a Year – Immersing yourself in a single plant teaches you its nuances and gifts.5. Practice Open Visualization – Engaging with herbs beyond the physical enhances intuition and connection.I'll share how I incorporate these practices into my own life and offer tips on how you can get started—no matter where you are on your herbal path.

My guest this episode is 7Song, a renowned (humbly) western herbalist and teacher. I was his student many years ago when I took the 8 month program at his school, The Northeast School of Botanical Medicine. Today we discussed the importance of herbal medicine in a modern medicine world. We discussed depression and adrenal fatigue as both  are in some cases an over, rather than under, stimulation of the nervous system which is a very important distinction if you are going to treat them. And we walked listeners through how to begin engaging with herbal medicine if this episode inspires an interest. I was so pleased to be able to grab 7Song for this conversation. You can reach out to him for care via the Ithaca Free Clinic either in person or virtually. All appointments are free (caveat since it is volunteer run, don't expect a quick and efficient scheduling experience). Resources:Follow 7Song on instagram @7songsevensong and Facebook facebook.com/sevensong.sevensongThe Northeast School of Botanical Medicine: 7song.comInfo about herbalist Micheal Moore HEREFlower Power Herb Shop in NYC: flowerpower.netCramp Bark: here*Jamaican Dogwood: here*High quality resource for buying bulk herbs and preparations: MountainRoseHerbs.com
