HerbRally: Recent Episodes
Mason Hutchison
Welcome to the HerbRally podcast! We take a deep dive into the world of herbalism. We host some of the best teachers in the field with topics ranging from wild foods, botany, nutrition, ecology, herbal medicine and health accessibility. You'll hear class recordings from conferences, narrated plant monographs, interviews, event updates and so much more. There are hundreds of episodes on herbalism so you're bound to find what you're looking for. Thanks for tuning in!
In this episode of The Herbalist Hour, I had the pleasure of hanging out with clinical herbalist Lila Swanberg.
Our conversation covers everything from why she thinks natural healing has "gone soft" to herbal dosing, clinical experience, misinformation, and what it means to practice herbalism with curiosity and integrity.
Lila has a knack for challenging conventional wisdom, and I always appreciate hearing her perspective—even when it pushes back against the status quo.
We also talk about ashwagandha, herbal education, creating the resources you wish existed, and some of the biggest opportunities and challenges facing the herbal community today.
Whether you find yourself nodding along or questioning your own assumptions, I think you'll come away with something to think about.
Thanks for listening!

Farmer Cee Stanley returns to The Herbalist Hour to discuss her new book, The Black Girl's Guide to Building a Boutique Farm and share what she's learned while building Green Heffa Farms into a nationally recognized herbal business.
I always enjoy talking with Cee because our conversations go far beyond herbs.
We dive into branding, entrepreneurship, marketing, mindset, fundraising, and what it really takes to build a business that's aligned with your values instead of chasing trends or social media algorithms.
In this conversation, Cee introduces her "5 V's" framework for building a boutique brand, explains why market research should come before planting your first herb, discusses the difference between branding and marketing, and shares why she strives to be an impact generator rather than simply a content creator.
If you've ever dreamed of starting an herb farm, growing an herbal business, or building something meaningful from the ground up, I think you'll get a lot out of this episode.

In this episode, Jesse Wolf Hardin sits down with Debora Greer for a thoughtful exploration of Makumba, an Afro-Indigenous spiritual tradition and philosophy of life that weaves together herbalism, ancestry, ritual, and relationship with the living world.
Together, they discuss what Makumba is, why it has been so widely misunderstood, and how its teachings invite us into a deeper relationship with plants, nature, community, and healing.
They also explore the impact of colonization on our connection to the Earth, the importance of honoring our ancestors, and why Debora believes that "nature is our greatest ancestor."
Whether you're an herbalist, naturalist, or simply curious about different ways of understanding our place within the web of life, this conversation invites you to slow down, listen deeply, and rediscover the wisdom of relationship.
If you'd like to learn from Debora in person, she'll be teaching three classes at the 2026 Good Medicine Confluence: Herbal Showers and Baths: A Makumba Healing Tool, Rose & Thorns of Death and Despair: The Teachings of Grandma Buruku, and 7 Knives and 7 Chili Peppers: Exu Magic for the Protection of the Oppressed.

Welcome to episode 26 of The Plant Healer's Path: The Adventure Imperative | Exploration & Excitement for the Plant Healer
In this episode, Jesse Wolf Hardin reflects on the spirit of adventure and why it's essential to a deeply lived life.
Exploring themes of courage, curiosity, purpose, and personal transformation, he examines how fear, responsibility, and self-doubt can keep us from pursuing our deepest callings.
Wolf invites listeners to embrace uncertainty, venture beyond the familiar, and recognize that the path of the plant healer is, by its very nature, a bold and lifelong adventure.

A few days ago, a devastating fire tore through Oshala Farm. Thankfully everyone made it out safely, but the farm suffered an unimaginable loss.
In this short episode, I share a quick update on how Oshala is doing, some of their immediate rebuilding needs, and how we, as an herbal community, can help.
If you're able, please consider supporting Elise, Jeff, and the entire Oshala Farm team as they begin the long road to rebuilding.

What if the Earth is a living organism, and herbalism is one way of participating in that living system?
Welcome back to the Herbalist Hour!
In this episode, I sit down with Mo Judith, founder of Aura La Voura, to explore the fascinating world of spagyric plant medicine, alchemy, and ecological relationship.
We discuss her path into herbalism, what spagyrics are and how they differ from tinctures, the philosophy behind her work, and why she sees medicine-making as a practice rooted in relationship rather than extraction.
We also dive into animism, the Gaia Hypothesis, reconnecting with the natural world, and why the idea of being "self-taught" deserves a closer look.
I came away from this conversation deeply inspired by Mo and her work, and I highly encourage you to explore more of what she's doing through Aura La Voura and, if you have the opportunity, take one of her classes.

What if your garden could become a map for understanding both nature and yourself?
In this episode of The Herbalist Hour, I sit down with herbalist, astrologer and author Isaac Hill to discuss his fascinating new book, The Zodiac Garden.
We explore what a zodiac garden actually is, how astrology and gardening intersect, and why Isaac sees the garden as a living temple. We also dive into the spiritual side of gardening, humanity's role as a keystone species, common misconceptions about astrology, and how creating a zodiac garden can have a balancing effect on the psyche.
Whether you're already interested in astrology or completely new to it, I think you'll find this conversation both thought-provoking and surprisingly practical.
Isaac also shares several ways to design your own zodiac garden and offers some great advice for anyone looking to begin exploring astrology.
Thanks for tunin' in!

We chat about what makes Lindsey one of the most phenomenal, "next-level" formulators in the community, her incredible work as a lead educator for the Herbal Academy, and why you absolutely need to jump on the chance to take one of her classes.

We discuss why giving a plant a name can sometimes cause us to stop listening to it, the difference between "living thinking" and "object thinking," and why more potent products like essential oils aren't always better or more sustainable than a simple cup of herbal tea. Plus, we share a few aromatic blends like Sweet Grass, Vetiver, and Lemon Balm, and discuss the immense dedication of independent American herb farmers.

Today on The Herbalist Hour, I'm joined by Yasmeen Faraj, LCSW, CIMHP, therapist, herbalist, and founder of Kinda Crunchy Therapy and sMOOches Organics.
In this conversation, we explore the intersection of mental health and herbalism, including nature connection, community, burnout, intuition, sleep, nutrition, and the healing power of plants.
Yasmeen shares how she incorporates herbs into her therapy practice through plant walks, herbal tea, and sensory experiences, and we discuss what therapists and herbalists can learn from one another.
We also talk about Motherwort, Mugwort, ecstatic dance, inner child work, and what it means to follow a "full body yes."
I absolutely loved this conversation and know you will as well!

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.

We chat about plant allies, nervous system support, community, homesteading, impostor syndrome, social media burnout, and the importance of slowing down enough to really listen to the plants.
Amy also shares some great stories about nettle, herbal conferences, teaching, and building an herbal practice rooted in authenticity and connection.

This conversation was recorded at the International Herb Symposium and originally released through Folk Methodology.
Kyle is also the teacher of the Herbal Dental Care free mini course, where he explores oral health through an herbalist's lens using concepts like tissue states, energetics, and foundational herbal principles.

This episode of The Herbalist Hour is a little different. Recorded inside a working tattoo shop in Twisp, Washington, Mason sits down with herbalist Rosalee de la Forêt and tattoo artist (and tarot reader) Caitlin Cordell… while Rosalee is actively getting tattooed.
What unfolds is a lively, unscripted conversation weaving together herbalism, embodiment, and everyday practice in a setting that's anything but typical.
Along the way, we dive into the nuances of inflammation—why it's not the enemy, the crucial difference between acute and chronic states, and how herbalism can support long-term vitality without fear-based restriction.
Rosalee shares insights from her clinical experience, busts common myths (including the turmeric + black pepper debate), and highlights herbs like hawthorn and lemon balm as powerful, often underappreciated allies.
Midway through, the energy shifts as Mason and Rosalee receive a spontaneous tarot reading, adding another layer of reflection and meaning to an already rich conversation. It's equal parts education, storytelling, and real-life moment—needle buzzing in the background and all.

In this episode of The Herbalist Hour, I sit down with herbalist and founder of Kokora, Ric Scalzo. Many of you may know Ric as the co-founder of Gaia Herbs, but today we focus on his newest venture and the deeper philosophy behind it.
Ric shares how Kokora's products go from farm to bottle, rooted in regenerative organic agriculture and a commitment to true herbal integrity.

We also dive into some of Kokora's formulations, including their turmeric capsules, 5 mushroom blend, and regenerative stress support formula, along with what Ric personally reaches for most often.

In this clip from Herbalists After Hours, jim mcdonald shares one virtue he believes is essential for herbalists: kindness.
Drawing on Octavia Butler's line, "Kindness eases change," jim reflects on how change — whether personal, cultural, or relational — is rarely easy. But kindness can soften the process.
We talk about kindness toward others, kindness toward ourselves, and the deeper roots of the word "kind" — connected to kin and nature — reminding us that we are not separate from each other or the living world.
In a culture where unkindness is often normalized, this is a gentle but powerful reminder: kindness matters.
Rosalee and I are sharing clips from this conversation across our channels — but the full, in-person interview is where the whole story unfolds.

In this short solo segment, I share an exciting opportunity from our friends at Wild Herb Academy — free access to six lessons from Medical Botany: Foundations in Ancient Plant Medicine.
This free preview goes far deeper than basic plant ID. April Punsalan and ethnobotanist Nishanth Gurav teach you how to see plants the way botanists and traditional healers do: through patterns, form, environment, and structure.
Inside the free lessons, you'll explore: • How to recognize plant patterns in the field • How leaf shapes and growth habits reveal medicinal qualities • How plant families help you understand unfamiliar herbs • Practical observation skills that deepen your relationship with the land
I also share why this kind of plant-pattern literacy is a cornerstone of herbalism — the kind of knowledge that makes every future lesson, formula, and field walk make more sense.
A great opportunity to sample the work before the full program opens.
Mason Hutchison, HerbRally

In this episode of The Herbalist Hour, I sit down with herbalist and educator Lindsey Feldpausch for a rich conversation about what a wholistic approach to herbal education truly means. Early in the episode, Rosalee de la Forêt pops in unexpectedly and joins the discussion, adding even more insight and warmth to the conversation.
Lindsey shares her early plant story from Detroit and explores why wholeness in herbalism includes everything from botany and phytochemistry to formulation, energetics, clinical thinking, and direct plant experience. We talk niche vs. generalist paths, information overload, imposter feelings, and why curiosity is one of the herbalist's most valuable tools.
We also get behind-the-scenes insights into the upcoming Virtual Herbalism Conference from the Herbal Academy — featuring Rosemary Gladstar, Guido Masé, Sajah Popham, Kat Maier, and more.
A warm, energizing episode for herbalists at any point on their plant path 🌿

Welcome back to The Plant Healer's Path — Episode 24.
In this lyrical and deeply reflective episode, Jesse Wolf Hardin offers a meditation on beauty — not as surface aesthetics, but as a lived, relational experience at the heart of healing work.
Wolf explores how beauty arises through attention, praise, and personal affection — and why naming what moves us is not exclusionary, but an act of generosity. Drawing on vivid imagery from flowers, music, birds, lovers, landscapes, and community healers, he reminds us that beauty is subjective, contextual, and inseparable from our histories, cultures, wounds, and joys.
Rather than treating beauty as something fleeting or rare, this episode frames it as ever-present — revealed through perspective, care, and willingness to be moved. Wolf also acknowledges the reality of ugliness and harm in the world, while affirming that choosing to notice and serve what is lovely is a meaningful, healing act in itself.
This episode is an invitation to speak our admiration out loud, to let praise inspire others, and to recognize beauty as a reciprocal gift — between people, plants, place, and time.

In this clip from The Herbalist Hour Episode 145, jim mcdonald breaks down one of his most foundational teachings: stress isn't one thing — and the herbs you choose should reflect how a person is stressed, not just the intensity of it.
Jim explores different stress patterns (sluggish, foggy, irritable, angry, overwhelmed) and how they point toward different herbal qualities — aromatics, bitters, nervines, and combinations. He digs into skullcap, vervain, chamomile, humoral temperaments, and the "frustrated / petulant child" pattern often described in older herbal writings.
This clip is classic jim: practical, deeply rooted in traditional herbal energetics, and focused on helping people think clearly about patterns rather than memorizing lists.

Welcome back to The Plant Healer's Path — Episode 23.
In this thoughtful episode, Jesse Wolf Hardin reflects on what it means to be of service as a plant healer — and why generosity, care, and contribution sit at the heart of folk herbalism.
Wolf explores the motivations that draw people to herbal work, alongside the realities of sustainability and livelihood. He shares practical ways herbalists and herbal businesses can serve their communities, including sliding scales, deferred payments, bartering, volunteer work, scholarships, donations, and profit-sharing with aligned causes.
This episode offers a clear reminder that service is a conscious, intentional act — one that supports access, strengthens community, and honors the reciprocal relationship between people, plants, and land.

In this special Winter Solstice edition of The Herbalist Hour, Mason sits down in person with one of his closest friends and longtime herbal ally, Nick Moya.
Nick and Mason first met over a decade ago while studying together at the Columbine School of Botanical Studies, and this conversation feels like two old friends weaving together stories, science, herbal wisdom, and deep curiosity.
Nick shares his personal path into herbalism, his love of medicinal mushrooms, and how herbal knowledge shows up in his daily life — not as a clinical practitioner, but as a deeply engaged human, forager, maker, teacher, and lifelong learner.
Together, they explore mushroom double extractions, Turkey Tail, Oregon Grape (Mahonia/Berberis), the importance of play, sustainable wildcrafting, writing herbal monographs, teaching plant walks, and what it means to live a truly holistic life.
This episode was recorded in person during Nick and his partner Steph's cross-country road trip, making for a warm, wide-ranging, and heartfelt conversation.

Welcome back to The Plant Healer's Path — Episode 22.
In this powerful and wide-ranging episode, Jesse Wolf Hardin speaks directly to the moment we're living in — a time of immense challenge, ecological strain, cultural pressure, and profound possibility.
Wolf reflects on the crossroads facing herbalists, healers, and culture-shifters of all kinds, exploring how fear, grief, and uncertainty can become sources of clarity, motivation, and purposeful action. Rather than retreating into resignation or victimhood, we're invited to deepen our awareness, sharpen our senses, and remember our place within the living world.
This episode weaves together themes of herbal access, plant protection, self-worth, intuition, responsibility, and celebration — reminding us that even in difficult times, it remains possible to cultivate meaning, connection, and joy. Herbalism is framed not only as medicine, but as a vital skill for self-care, community resilience, and cultural renewal.
A stirring reflection on empowered folk herbalism, embodied awareness, and the wild responsibility of living fully — even when the stakes are high.

Welcome back to The Plant Healer's Path — Episode 21.
In this reflective episode, Jesse Wolf Hardin explores the idea that among all the plants we cherish, there may be one green ally whose presence, timing, symbolism, or healing effect plays a uniquely meaningful role in our lives.
Wolf shares how a personal plant may appear during transition, heartbreak, celebration, or illness — offering medicine, emotional clarity, inspiration, or companionship. A plant ally might be one we've known for years but only now truly hear, or an unexpected species that arrives precisely when needed.
We're invited to slow down, notice the plants around us, feel their resonance, and recognize the qualities, stories, and teachings they bring. Once we identify our plant, we can turn to it for grounding, guidance, and everyday support.
A beautiful meditation on intuition, plant relationship, and the lifelong path of learning from nature.

In this deeply honest conversation, Ashley Elenbaas of SkyHouse Herbs shares how yoga quite literally saved her life — helping her heal from an eating disorder, substance use, and the inner voices that once told her she was not enough.
Ashley reflects on taking her very first yoga class at age 12 in Minneapolis, discovering embodiment for the first time, and later deepening her practice while attending college in Asheville. As yoga, meditation, and philosophy began reshaping her relationship with her body and mind, plants naturally entered the picture — guiding her toward an energetic, holistic approach to herbalism rooted in awareness, presence, and self-healing.
Today, Ashley continues a daily movement practice that includes yoga, running, and weightlifting — and she also teaches yoga at a women's recovery center, supporting others through trauma, addiction, and reconnection with the body.
In this clip, we explore: – Discovering yoga at a young age and learning embodiment – Healing from an eating disorder through movement and mindfulness – How yoga philosophy shaped her herbal path – The connection between plants, chakras, and energetics – Teaching yoga to women in recovery – Stillness, mental strength, and the real work of presence
Ashley also speaks to the quiet power of staying in a single pose, listening to the stories of the mind, and learning — one breath at a time — that transformation is possible.
This excerpt is part of a longer, wide-ranging conversation on healing, embodiment, recovery, and the deep overlap between yoga and herbalism.

In this moving excerpt from Episode 68 of The Herbalist Hour, Dr. Tieraona Low Dog offers a deeply grounded reflection on what self-care truly means — and why she believes we can let go of the word "self" altogether.
She speaks on love as something that must include ourselves, the importance of quiet and time in nature, and why the voice we hear in solitude is often the one we most need to trust. Drawing from lived experience, family, and the natural world, Dr. Low Dog reminds us that we are both profoundly strong and deeply fragile — and that both truths deserve tenderness.
You'll also hear a thoughtful exchange about distraction, technology, walking in silence, and how listening to the land can reconnect us to our purpose, our ancestors, and our place in the long chain of life. A beautiful reminder to slow down, take the headphones off, and remember that you are not alone — and that you are here for a reason.

Welcome back to The Plant Healer's Path — Episode 20.
In this episode, Jesse Wolf Hardin explores one of the deepest inner tensions faced by healers, activists, caregivers, and culture-shapers alike: the longing to create real, visible change — and the emotional weight of what we cannot control.
Through poetic reflection and grounded wisdom, Wolf speaks to the outcome-oriented heart that lives inside so many of us — especially herbalists, healthcare providers, parents, justice workers, and environmental advocates. He explores our shared desire to relieve suffering, to fix what is broken, to bring about lasting cures and total solutions — and the quiet harm that can arise when we measure our worth solely by what we can "successfully" change.
You'll hear why it's both beautiful and perilous to carry the world's pain on our shoulders, how unrealistic expectations can quietly drain our vitality, and why a truly sustainable healing practice depends on learning the difference between what we can influence and what we must release. Wolf offers a compassionate framework for shifting from impossible cures toward meaningful, tangible, day-to-day impact — without abandoning our deeper ideals.
If you've ever felt discouraged by outcomes you couldn't control, burned out by constant striving, or torn between big visions and personal limits, this episode offers a powerful reminder: your small, steady, real-world efforts matter more than you may realize.

Join legendary clinical herbalist Paul Bergner in an intimate, living-room conversation on herbalism as a calling, not just a career. With over 50 years of hands-on clinical practice, teaching, and mentorship, Paul shares rare insight into what truly shapes a great herbalist—diet, sleep, case-based learning, critical thinking, and deep relationship with plants.
In this wide-ranging monologue, Paul reflects on:
His early work in prisons and community clinics Why follow-ups matter more than textbooks How herbalists are really trained The role of "calling" in healing work Why the future of herbalism is becoming simpler, not more complex
This is a masterclass in lived experience from one of the most influential medical herbalists of our time.

Welcome back to The Plant Healer's Path.
In this episode, Jesse Wolf Hardin explores one of the most essential — yet often misunderstood — aspects of the plant healer's journey: finding and defining your true niche.
Through poetic reflection, grounded teaching, and decades of lived experience, Wolf unpacks what it really means to discover your unique role within the larger healing field. From folk herbalists and family practitioners to growers, medicine makers, teachers, clinicians, and culture builders, he illuminates how each healer carries a distinct "individual medicine" — a signature blend of talents, interests, aesthetics, convictions, and calling.
You'll hear why purpose needs form to fully manifest, how specialization isn't limitation but clarification, and why a well-defined niche becomes both your home base and your vantage point for serving the world. Wolf traces the word "niche" back to its Latin root meaning "nest," inviting you to consider how your own healing work is woven from the land, the people you serve, the methods you love, and the story you tell.
If you've ever felt scattered, unsure where you truly fit, or called to refine your focus without losing your heart, this episode offers a powerful framework for aligning your gifts, your audience, your role, and your deeper purpose into a coherent, living practice.

Welcome back to The Plant Healer's Path.
In this episode, Jesse Wolf Hardin invites you into a soulful, provocative, and deeply clarifying journey through 20 essential life questions — prompts designed to reorient you toward meaning, vitality, purpose, and the truth of who you are.
Through story, metaphor, and grounded self-inquiry, Wolf explores what it really means to live deliberately: What would you do if this were your final year? What is worth your precious time, energy, devotion, and attention? What habits, obligations, or environments drain you — and which nourish your joy, creativity, and calling? Who matters most? What matters most? And what would it take to craft a life that feels wholly, unapologetically your own?
If you've been craving reflection, renewal, direction, or simply a deeper connection to your authentic self, this episode serves as a powerful inner compass — a yardstick for living a life aligned with your values, your purpose, and your heart.

In this clip from The Herbalist Hour, Alex Williams of First Curve Apothecary joins me for an honest, grounded conversation about what it really feels like to promote your work in the herbal world. We dive into the tension between authenticity and business, why marketing often feels gross or performative, the pressure to "sell yourself," and how herbalists can share their offerings without feeding the hype, fear, or scarcity that so often drives conventional marketing.
Alex speaks candidly about learning to trust that people are "enough" as they are, navigating capitalism as a village herbalist, and finding ways to sustain a business while staying true to your values. If you've ever struggled with selling herbal products, pricing your work, or promoting yourself without feeling like you're selling your soul… this one is for you.

In this episode, Wolf explores Gaia consciousness — the ancient, animistic understanding of Earth as a living, breathing, feeling being. Through poetic teaching and grounded reflection, he invites us to consider our place within the greater planetary whole, and how our healing work becomes an act of healing the larger self of Gaia.

In this very special replay of The Herbalist Hour Episode 50, I sit down with John Gallagher — co-founder of LearningHerbs and a beloved member of the herbal community who recently passed away after a long struggle with depression, anxiety, and insomnia.
This episode means the world to me. If you’ve followed HerbRally for a while, you’ve probably heard me talk about how much John influenced my herbal journey. His podcast, HerbMentor Radio, was my introduction to the wider herbal world. I devoured every episode — over and over again. Through those interviews, I felt like I knew the herbalists he featured. And John was the thread running through it all — full of curiosity, warmth, humor, and a contagious laugh.
Eventually I became an HerbMentor member (still am to this day), and a few years later, John actually became a friend.
I’ll never forget him visiting the Mountain Rose Herbs marketing department when I worked there — he brought so much joyful energy with him. And at RootStalk, the legendary one-time herbal gathering, I feel like our friendship really took root.
It was also there that I learned John wasn’t quite as squeaky clean off-mic as he was on his show — turns out he loved to swear, just like me! That only made me love him more.
Over the years, I got to know him better through shared time at events, visits to his home in Port Townsend, chats on the phone, and eventually, this very conversation on The Herbalist Hour. Recording this episode felt like a full-circle moment. I finally got to sit down and interview someone who helped shape my path in herbalism — not just as a mentor from afar, but as a real friend.
Everyone I know who knew John adored him. He lit up every room. And he gave so much to this community.
My heart goes out to Kimberly, their children, his family, and everyone who loved him.
John — I love you, buddy. Thank you for being there during some rough times. Thank you for your support of HerbRally. And thank you for helping open up the herbal world to me, and to so many others.
You’ll be deeply missed.
~Mason

Hey friends, Mason here — recording this quick message straight from my phone while I’m packing for my big move back to Oregon.

Just because it’s “natural” doesn’t mean it’s safe.
Too many herbalists are out here sipping teas and tossing herbs into tinctures with zero understanding of how they actually work. That’s not holistic healing. That’s gambling...
In this free 5-day course, I’m teaching you the same framework I give my clinical students—the 4 Levels of Herb Safety. You’ll learn how to stop treating herbs like they're all equal, and start using them with the reverence, responsibility, and wisdom they require.
By the time we’re done, you’ll: 🌿 Know the difference between a daily herb, a short-term herb, a caution herb, and one you need to leave all the way alone 🌿 Understand what’s safe in pregnancy, for children, or alongside medications 🌿 Finally feel confident deciding what belongs in your tea—and what doesn’t 🌿 Get printable quick-reference resources
You’ll walk away with more than information—you’ll have understanding.
Available free through June 23rd 2025
After that, it becomes a paid course or gets locked in the Student Vault.
Because the truth is, you can’t afford to keep guessing.

Welcome to a conversation with Good Medicine Confluence presenter Josh Busbee on the profound healing that can come from foraging wild edible and medicinal plants.
And join with Josh, Wolf, and nearly 40 other presenters for an experience like none other –– the wondrous annual Good Medicine Confluence, being held in 2025 on Aug. 17th - 20th in the enchanted Southwest –– a both practical and magical immersion into the realms of herbal medicine and natural healing, wildcrafting and food preparation, ancient ways and the very frontiers of science.
Gather with 300 fellow unboxable world-changers in this confluence of education and celebration, equipping and inspiring our personal lives and missions. Choose from the over 100 classes and playshops, then dance beneath a zillion stars –– 4 full days and nights of transformational delight at New Mexico’s truly enchanted Ghost Ranch retreat center.
Get your 2025 Confluence ticket online now by going to the Registration page at: GoodMedicineConfluence.com
You can sign up at no cost for Wolf’s 80 pages long zine Herbaria Monthly, and access the many titles available on the Plant Healer Bookstore by going to: @PlantHealer.org
GUEST’S BIO: Josh Busbee is a forager that is dedicated to providing helpful and informative classes and YouTube videos to help others easily identify and use plants in their surroundings. The classes and videos take an approach that all can not only understand, but learn from without complicating things. He started foraging in 2008 and since then has covered thousands of miles on foot foraging and learning plants in his state of Indiana.
Josh often spends 40 or more hours a week in nature and loves to encourage others to connect with nature and themselves. He has worked with girl scout troops, boy scout troops, and conservation societies in his state. The connection with nature goes deep as he has healed himself from depression and controlled a lifelong struggle with it and suicidal thoughts by connecting with nature in unconventional ways. He loves giving thanks to nature and embraces the title of “Tree Hugger,” challenging the idea that being called a “Tree Hugger” is a bad thing.
His approach to teaching is down to earth and often times will include some light humor and references to popular media as a way to bring us all together. His Youtube channel and business is named after his favorite plant, Trillium, because of the trinity of leaves representing healthful Mind, Soul, and Nature. Read more about his offerings at: https://www.trilliumwildedibles.com and check out his excellent free foraging videos at: @TrilliumWildEdibles

Announcing for your entertainment and education, The Plant Healer's Path.
This is a unique new series of inspirational and informational videos with host Jesse Wolf Hardin.
“Are ya feeling in love with plants and the natural world? Fascinated with plant medicine? Do you keep hearing the call to become a healer and culture-shifter, or to be an even more effective healer than you already are now? Are you open to exploring not only how to understand and utilize herbs, but also diving into more natural, awakened, purposeful and celebratory ways of being and doing?”
Thus begins Wolf’s trailer to this series of episodes, to be followed soon after on HerbRally by his weekly videos postings.
Topics are going to range from “What is an Herbalist?” to redefinitions of health and healing, from an ode to medicinal “weeds” to a look at the “nature” in the term “natural healing,” from herbal activism to explorations of plant spirit, and from “10 things to know to become a better herbalist” to the framing of herbal medicine as a portal to our personal wonderment and re-enchantment.
We are beyond thrilled to share these episodes with you!
A huge heartfelt thank you to Wolf for taking the time to share his wisdom with all of us.

In this episode of The Herbalist Hour I'm joined once again by Dana Hutchinson.
Dana was diagnosed with a rare autoimmune condition called Lichen Sclerosus in 2012 shortly after learning her mother was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer.
With Western harsh topical steroids and estrogen creams making things worse and covering up underlying systemic issues, Dana looked to eastern medicine to begin repairing her condition, and within 3 months, she began to feel vital, hopeful, and motivated that recovery was possible.
In one year, Dana’s extreme case of LS was in full remission. Now supporting LS clients for over a decade with comprehensive herbal medicine protocols, Dana has produced a potent herbal oil clinically tested and formulated to target the debilitating symptoms of LS.
We chat about what Lichen Sclerosus is, why she thinks LS is being diagnosed at an alarming rate, how she assesses it at the Wildflower Clinic, lifestyle recommendations for those with autoimmunity, resources for those with LS and a whole lot more.
This was in incredibly informative interview and I hope you get a lot out of it.
Big thanks to Dana for joining me on the show, and thanks to y'all for tuning in.
See you in the next episode!

The first phase of the menstrual cycle is the follicular phase, which begins on day one of bleeding.
However, the follicular phase is split up into two sections: the early follicular phase, which is also widely known as the menstrual phase, and the late follicular phase.
In this episode, Angelica discusses a brief introduction to the anatomy and physiology of the menstrual phase and three herbs to support the menstrual phase, with a cameo appearance from Marshmallow Root.

We traveled to New Orleans, my favorite city, for my 40th birthday and had the opportunity to interview three incredible herbalists.
Lucretia was one of 'em and we met up at our AirBnB to record this episode.

She’s been in the wellness industry for over 25 years, working as a holistic esthetician and educator. Lucretia has worked and trained with many internationally known spa and skin care companies. Her quest for knowledge and interest in the traditional approach to wellness has led her to training extensively in Southeast Asia, Thailand, and Bali. Lucretia focuses on integrating indigenous healing rituals, plant spirit medicine, holistic approaches to food/herbal medicine, ancestor reverence, and meditation into modern daily practice.

Welcome back to The Herbalist Hour!
Today, we’ve got something special for you — what we’re calling the lost episode with Nathan Wright.
This was recorded last year, but due to an absolutely whirlwind year for Nathan, the video never made it to you — until now. Originally, Nathan had planned to release a different cold water experience video at the same time as this one, but that one remains unreleased and is now something he uses exclusively for his classes.
Then, somewhere along the way, he misplaced this recording. And by the time he found it again last year, he was deep in organizing the Northwoods Nature Fest, an incredible event that this year will be held May 30th to June 1st in Wolverine, Michigan.
This festival has drawn in some amazing herbalists, including jim mcdonald and Matthew Wood, the latter of whom has called it “the greatest little under-marketed herb festival in the North Country.”
Nathan teaches a wide range of classes, including: Indigenous herbalism Mushroom foraging Cold water immersion (which you’ll actually see him demonstrate in this video), wild rice cultivation Permaculture Treaty rights, bark teas and plant medicine, pain relief methods, Ojibwe storytelling, guided plant walks, and even discussions on Troubled Water, the documentary he’s featured in.
BONUS: Nathan is sharing with us a special coupon code for 15% off all items on his site.
Exclusive to listeners of the HerbRally podcast go to HerbalLodge.com and use code HR15.
Enjoy the LOST episode of The Herbalist Hour with the one and only Nathan Wright.
Talk to you soon,

In this episode of The Herbalist Hour, I'm joined in-person by the one and only Ellenie Cruz.
We traveled to New Orleans, my favorite city, for my 40th birthday and had the opportunity to interview three incredible herbalists.
Ellenie was one of 'em and we met up at beautiful City Park to record this episode.
I first met Ellenie at the event she organized for several years, the NOLA Herbal Gathering. It was so good to sit down and catch up with her.
She's had an incredible journey and I am honored to call her a friend.
Ellenie Marie Mabaoyo Cruz-Hampton is a mother, educator, poet, student midwife, doula, herbalist, reiki master, food literacy educator, artist and designer. Ellenie uses her given and learned talents to promote the art of ancestral practices to heal self, family and community. Motivated by social justice, she has shifted from being a high school English teacher to a free agent and entrepreneur promoting radical change through holistic wellness, self-care and community building.

Robin Rose is a story-teller, writer, and herbalist. She has been offering classes in WiseWoman Healing Ways: Herbal Medicine and EarthSpirit Teachings since 1986 - at herb conferences, festivals, clinics, medical and nursing schools, and most joyously, outside with the plants.

We chat about what inspired her to write the book, how we can give back to the plants, the "connection ritual", why a dandelion doesn't want to be a rose and what we can learn from that, how we can cultivate a sense of kinship with plants and a ton more.
This is one of my all time favorite interviews and I know you're goin' to love it!

EPISODE DESCRIPTION
Ever wondered if those pesky dandelions ruining your pristine lawn might actually be a treasure trove of health benefits? Join me, Demetra Clark, on the Heart of Herbs Herbal School Podcast as we uncover the surprising medicinal and culinary uses of common backyard weeds. From the diuretic power of dandelion leaves, loaded with essential vitamins and minerals, to the liver-supporting properties of their roots, these so-called nuisances might just become your new favorite herb. You’ll also discover innovative ways to incorporate dandelions into your diet, like fresh greens in salads or roasted roots as a coffee alternative, all while gaining historical insight into how early European settlers valued this versatile plant. But the exploration doesn’t stop there. Learn about the nutritional benefits and uses of plantain, chickweed, and nettle, each with its unique advantages. Hear personal stories highlighting nettle's nutritional value and unexpected role in alleviating carpal tunnel syndrome. Lastly, we shed light on the remarkable red clover, a traditional spring tonic known for its blood-cleansing properties. You’ll leave with a newfound appreciation for the natural remedies right outside your door, eager to embrace your backyard as a source of health and wellness. Tune in, and let's transform those unwanted weeds into your personal apothecary!

EPISODE DESCRIPTION
Can herbs retain their vibrant colors, potent flavors, and medicinal properties for longer periods? Absolutely! Join me, Demetria Clark, as we explore the remarkable process of freeze-drying herbs, also known as lyophilization. This advanced preservation method rapidly freezes fresh herbs and then removes moisture through sublimation in a vacuum chamber, preserving heat-sensitive nutrients and minimizing oxidation. You'll learn how freeze-drying can extend the shelf life and potency of your herbal preparations, making them more effective and cost-efficient, whether you're crafting teas, tinctures, or culinary blends. But that's not all! We'll also reflect on the evolving practices in herbalism, from traditional drying techniques to the now widely accepted microwave drying. Discover how adapting herbal practices can make herbal care more accessible and affordable for everyone, from clients facing housing instability to those maintaining community gardens. Plus, learn about our tool rental program that supports the sustainability of these gardens. Tune in for practical tips, insights, and a deeper understanding of how modern methods can enhance your herbal practice and better serve your community.

Dana Hutchinson was diagnosed with a rare autoimmune condition called Lichen Sclerosus in 2012 shortly after learning her mother was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer.
With Western harsh topical steroids and estrogen creams making things worse and covering up underlying systemic issues, Dana looked to eastern medicine to begin repairing her condition, and within 3 months, she began to feel vital, hopeful, and motivated that recovery was possible.
In one year, Dana’s extreme case of LS was in full remission. Now supporting LS clients for over a decade with comprehensive herbal medicine protocols, Dana has produced a potent herbal oil clinically tested and formulated to target the debilitating symptoms of LS.
A big THANK YOU to Dana for creating this educational video on how to use herbs to help with Lichen Sclerosus.

We took a trip to beautiful Vermont this summer where we met up with one of our dear friends, Helen Ward. She and her family hosted us at their gorgeous property "Three Springs Farm".
In this episode Helen shares with us the roles she has at Rosemary Gladstar's Science and Art of Herbalism, dives deep into the behind the scenes, how it has transformed over the years, and why this course has impacted so many lives to this day.
She also tells us about her recent journey with elderberry, why we all need community with plants and people, life lessons she has learned from Rosemary and so much more.
Grab a cup of tea and enjoy my incredible chat with the one and only Helen Ward.
Enjoy,

We visited Rosemary Gladstar in Vermont in July 2024 and created this mini-documentary with her.
MINI-DOC | GLADSTAR: Becoming Nature's Reflection
Climb into a comfy chair and sit down with the Fairy Godmother of Herbalism, soak in all her beautiful words of wisdom, and be enlightened by her life lessons, how to communicate with plants, and bring out the wildness that lives in our deepest cellular core.
Rosemary Gladstar invites us to her beautiful home on Lake Champlain, Vermont, and walks us through her day-to-day rituals, how she greets every morning, and gives thanks when it’s time to drift into slumber, dreaming about the magical plants.
Destined to be a plant lover, Rosemary shares some early childhood memories, what got her on the path of herbalism, and expresses her life’s mission.
We live in a pretty tamed world today, and if you are someone who wishes to spend more quality time outside with Mother Nature, with your community, and wildlife, then you found yourself a real heartfelt gem.
We can’t thank Rosemary enough for the beautiful visit and taking the time to sit with us and allow us to see a glimpse into her lovely home, sharing some tasty meals, and showering us with so much love and compassion.

EPISODE DESCRIPTION
Fires are most devastating where they occur, but the smoke and particulates they release into the air affects vast areas of space. So it’s good for all of us to be aware of the problem and have practical solutions to protect ourselves.
In addition to practical DIY methods for improving air quality in the home, herbs can be very helpful. Some of the herbal actions & specific herbs discussed in this episode include:
- gentle herbs for steaming – chamomile, lavender, mint
- demulcent herbs to protect mucous membranes and maintain hydration – marshmallow, mullein, linden, violet, fennel, licorice, pleurisy root, purslane, okra
- expectorants to get mucous out of the lungs – mullein, horehound, hyssop, elecampane
- respiratory relaxants for tense lungs & constricted airways – fennel, mullein, lobelia
- nervine herbs to cope with the stress of fires – lobelia, blue vervain, linden, hawthorn, goldenrod
- adaptogens for long-term stress resilience – codonopsis, jiaogulan, goji, reishi
Whether you’re in a fire path or affected by the drifting smoke & particulates already, or worried this is on the horizon, these herbs can help. But they’ll only be helpful if you have them on hand, prepared & ready to go – and know how to work with them! – when you need them. So planning, preparing, and learning ahead of time is critical.

EPISODE DESCRIPTION
Flooding causes great devastation, and it also brings many risks. Foremost among these are isues of pathogenic load: mold, bacteria, and other pathogens spread through flood waters. Minor wounds can easily get infected, breathing in the spores of mold can make one sick, and it’s difficult to avoid introducing germs to the digestive system in these conditions.
Herbs can help. Antimicrobial herbs can be taken to protect against infection or fight off infection in all these areas of the body. Knowing the right method for applying or ingesting your herbs is critical to success here. Sometimes an herbal steam you inhale is much more important than herbs you eat or drink.
Herbs discussed include: garlic, “mighty mints” (thyme, oregano, sage, monarda), “gentler mints” (peppermint, lavender), eucalyptus, aromatic evergreens (pine, spruce, juniper), yerba santa, elecampane, berberines (barberry, oregon grape, algerita, goldenseal), propolis, myrrh, chaparral, purple loosestrife, usnea, echinacea, prickly ash, spilanthes, turmeric, henna, black walnut, clove, cinnamon, cardamom, calendula.

During my Herbalist Hour interview with Michael "Skeeter" Pilarski we had a nice chat about Balsamorhiza sagittata, aka arrowleaf balsamroot.
I really enjoyed hearing Skeeter teach about this plant as I am personally quite fond of it.
If you already know it, I hope you learn something new! And if it's a new plant for you, I encourage you to learn even more about this wonderful species.

The Eclectic School of Herbal Medicine (ESHM) is excited to announce a fundraiser for their student-led Free Herbal Clinic!
After 10 years of operation, client needs have expanded beyond their budget, and they need your help to keep the free clinic thriving!
With the the support of the herbal community, they will continue to offer comprehensive herbal care for all.
LEARN MORE & DONATE
THE GOAL Their fundraiser goal is to raise $10,000, which will cover the costs of the first round of herbal formulas for our free clinic clients for one year and help provide a living wage for their dedicated apothecary worker, who makes medicines and fills formulas onsite in Lowgap, NC. The free clinic supports countless people each year, but it’s costly to run.

HOW YOU CAN HELP Your support can make a significant difference! They have an array of items generously donated by fellow herbalists available for purchase. All proceeds go directly to the free clinic. You can also sponsor a clinic client’s herbal needs or make a donation of any amount.

Today's episode of the HerbRally Podcast is a replay of a webinar that we co-hosted with Maria Noël Groves.
WEBINAR DESCRIPTION
Sleep is foundational for our health and wellbeing, but sometimes we need help getting shut-eye.
In this free webinar, Maria will share some key indications, pros, and cons of popular sleep herbs from her new book Herbal Remedies for Sleep.
We’ll focus on commonly sold sleep herbs including chamomile, valerian, passionflower, hops - and perhaps a few others if we have time - including the who, when, why, how for each - when each works best… or not so much.

In this episode of The Herbalist Hour I'm incredibly honored and excited to be joined by the hosts of the Plant Cunning Podcast.
This is a wildly popular show in the herbal community, hosted by the one and only AC Stauble and Isaac Hill.
I have long admired them and their work, so it was a blast to host them on show.
Just a week later I was able to join them on their show and turn the tables so to speak.
I was stoked to get to know them more via both podcast chats, but I look forward to hangin' with them in-person at some point (perhaps at a future Plant Cunning Conference).
In this conversation we delve into how they met, how they got into herbalism, what does "plant cunning" mean, how you get into magic, podcasting, their offerings, and a TON more.
AC and Isaac are an absolute delight and I know you're goin' to LOVE this episode. If you're not already, please take a moment to go and SUBSCRIBE to their YouTube and podcast channels.
Thanks and see you in the next episode,

In this episode of The Herbalist Hour I'm joined by Chanchal Cabrera and special guest host Aron McNicholas.
Chanchal wrote a book a year ago called "Holistic Cancer Care: An Herbal Approach to Reducing Cancer Risk, Helping Patients Thrive during Treatment, and Minimizing Recurrence".
I wanted to have her back on the show to go more in-depth on the book. So Aron was the perfect person to ask to host this one as he has studied the topic quite a bit and he's also a practitioner.
There is a lot of wisdom, practical advice and takeaways in this one!
Big thanks to Chanchal and Aron for taking the time to record this episode, and thanks to YOU for tuning in.

This episode of the HerbRally Podcast is a very special one!
Join host Jiling Lin as she has an incredibly informative and insightful conversation with world-renowned herbalist, Chanchal Cabrera.
They chat a lot about Chanchal's highly regarded new book "Holistic Cancer Care".
Chanchal is an expert in the field of herbalism and about 80 percent of her practice involves clients who have cancer.
She also offers a lot of great philosophical insight on life and death. I found this conversation to be extremely valuable to me, and I know you're going to get a lot from it as well.
There are even a couple of guest questions from Camille Freeman and me!
I want to say a huge thanks to Jiling and Chanchal for taking the time to record and share this wonderful podcast episode with all of us!

In this episode of The Herbalist Hour I'm joined by Ash Ritter.
Ash is a west coast born, desert-dwelling ethnobotanist, educator, writer, multi-disciplinary animist, and poet in disguise as herbalist. For twenty years and counting, Ash continues to reverently devote her life to fungal & botanical studies, encompassing traditional, academic, clinical, and directly relational terrains.
Her approach places emphasis on plants, fungi, and planet as relations, and is manifested through her practice as fostering engagement with & as the living world, rather than "using" plants as commodity. She counsels & creates in her private practice, Black Sage Botanicals.
In this episode we discuss the Solanaceae plant family, her herbal origins, what a psychonaut is, making herbal candy and a whole lot more.
THIS PODCAST IS MEANT FOR EDUCATIONAL AND ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES ONLY!
I had a great time chatting it up with Ash and getting to know her story.

Sajah Popham and the School of Evolutionary Herbalism just dropped lesson 2 in their free Vitalist Herbalism Mini-course! It's called The Holistic Intake Roadmap. CLICK HERE TO REGISTER
It's an an hour and thirteen minutes and is jam-packed with all sorts of tidbits for the herbalist, especially if you're looking into seeing clients.
Sajah teaches us his three frameworks for how he does a holistic client intake and interview.
This includes:
The 5 layers of communication that you need to have when talking to clients
The 5 internal states you must have yourself (comes with a PDF as well)
Learn what the acronym OPQRST stands for. *hint, this was a huge turning point for Sajah's own client intakes (also a part that I found really fascinating).
Sajah is a wonderful teacher, I've had the pleasure of taking classes with him at various conferences over the years and always come away inspired!
If you're considering taking on clients as an herbalist, lesson 2 is a must!
Also, if you missed lesson 1, "Allopathic vs. Vitalist Herbalism" CLICK HERE.

This episode of The Herbalist Hour is a super special one! On our way back from a wedding, we were able to swing through Seattle and hang out with rapper Torin Frost.
For those of you that don't know, Torin is the creator of The Herbalist Hour theme song. He did an incredible job with it, so I asked him some questions about his inspiration for the song.
We also talk a lot about his debut mixtape that just dropped called "The Drip of the Iceberg".
LISTEN ON SPOTIFY
Later in the conversation Torin starts freestyle rapping about a few of our favorite plant allies!
He's an incredibly talented artist, a super funny guy, and a humble and kind soul doing great work in this world.
I hope you enjoy the conversation as much as I did, and please go give his mixtape a listen if you're a hip hop head like me.

I met Ginger years ago at the Good Medicine Confluence, so it was nice to reconnect and get to know her a bit more in this conversation.
In this discussion we learn about how Ginger got into herbalism, who some of her early mentors were including Michael Moore stories, and how she has seen the herbal community evolve over the past 30 years.
Ginger also teaches us about two of her favorite plant allies: peach and "Mexican hat" aka Ratibida.

A message from Emily Ruff at Sage Mountain:
"On July 10th, a historic and catastrophic thousand-year-flood raged through Vermont. The entire Central Vermont region experienced tragic devastation as waters raced down mountainsides and rivers breached dams to levels not seen in our lifetime.
That night, amidst torrential rain, the road to Sage Mountain Botanical Sanctuary turned into a raging waterfall of tumbling boulders and whitewater rapids, the flood tearing the only access to the Mountain down to the bedrock.
Your tax deductible donation helps sustain the Sanctuary through this long-term disruption so that we may continue our work of conservation, education and healing and continue the legacy of Rosemary Gladstar into the years to come."

This episode of The Herbalist Hour was a real treat for me.
I got to interview my longtime friend, Thomas Dick.
Thomas is the Executive Vice President of Mountain Rose Herbs. He also happens to be their Brand Director, as well as the host of the podcast "Interviews on Herbal Radio: Presented by Mountain Rose Herbs".
I've known Thomas for about 13 years now, and in this conversation we talk about his early childhood experiences with ginseng, singing on stage in India to a crowd of 32,000 people, branding your herbal products, and a whole lot more.
Thomas also answers some guest questions from Dr. Susan Leopold (Executive Director of United Plant Savers), herbalist Jiling Lin, and our mutual good friend Ryan Szakalski.
Although Thomas isn't an herbalist, he shares a lot of great insight around branding, marketing and being a leader. We also share a lot of laughs and some fun stories.
Also, stay tuned 'til the end to hear about Mountain Rose Herbs latest initiative, their "Seeds Project". It's quite revolutionary and we're excited to see it get kicked off!
This was one of my favorite episodes to record, and I hope y'all enjoy it as much as I did.
Please give this video a thumbs up 👍 if ya dig it, and leave us a comment with any takeaways you may have had in the comments section below.

An HerbRally audience member asked:
"My nutrition question is about chocolate. I love chocolate, especially dark chocolate. What's up with recent reports of many of my favorite brands containing cadmium and lead? The horror! I still love chocolate, so how can I continue to indulge safely?"
We had nutrition health coach Yaakov Levine on The Herbalist Hour and he answered this question, along with a lot more of your questions.

I actually took their apprenticeship several years ago and it has been foundational to my herbal journey.

Missy’s path to herbal teaching began with grassroots labor activism and cross-border solidarity.

I had the pleasure of chatting with herbalist and author Maria Noël Groves in this episode of The Herbalist Hour.

We also talked about the many different ways you can be an herbalist and how to go about getting an herbal education.
I've known Maria for several years now, but it was really nice to have the opportunity to hang out with her for an hour and learn more about her as a person, and all of the fabulous projects she's got goin' on.

For Episode 4 of The Herbalist Hour, Mason and Amanda went to visit their friend Yaakov Levine at the Natural Grocers in Eugene, OR.
Mason has known Yaakov for many years now. They'd frequently see each other at various herb conferences and natural foods events.
Yaakov is a nutrition health coach and expert, and was gracious enough to sit down with Mason to answer YOUR questions.
We polled the HerbRally audience to see if you had any nutrition questions and you all came through! There were about 125 questions that came in.
Of course, Yaakov couldn't answer every single one in this interview, but he did manage to get to about a dozen of 'em. Perhaps we'll have a round two with him.
We hope you enjoy this interview as much as we enjoyed making it!

Join clinical herbalist Erika Galentin, MNIMH RH for deep dive into the business and administrative infrastructural needs of a successful clinical herbal practice and learn how your reputation as a practitioner and the reputation of our profession can be elevated by having these solid structures in place. In this class we will cover:
- How building solid business and administrative infrastructure begins with clarifying your vision of what clinical herbal practice looks like for you
- Workshopping consultation options and setting fees and incorporating a free or sliding scale clinic model, and accounting.
- Professional practicalities and ethical considerations including professional and general liability insurance, scope of practice, herbalism & the law, privacy and confidentiality, & non-discrimination policies.
- Marketing considerations including being familiar with what you can and cannot say in print, on your website, to the media, and on social media and how this reflects safety, ethics, and accountability in your clinical work.

One of our subscribers asked "what do you find to be the most versatile herb in your practice, and why?"
Kyle Denton answers with a resounding "YARROW"!
He does teach us about the many virtues of yarrow in this video. But he also chats a bit about how we talk about plants.
What does it mean to "use" a plant? Instead, perhaps we should say "work with", or talk about the virtues of plants.

A note from Robin Rose
Hi, Robin Rose Bennett here, storyteller, herbalist and green witch.
I’m blessed to live on the edge of 3,000 acres of protected state forest in northern NJ. And to have been working with, teaching about, and learning from the plants and other plant people for over thirty years.
I’ve learned that herbs are uniquely gifted in helping us heal body, mind, heart and soul. As we attune to their spiritual teachings, they help us deepen our relationships with ourselves, each other and the web of life. And it is a delight and honor to be part of the HerbRally community!
When Mason invited me to contribute, I sat down in my medicine wheel and recorded this video as my first offering. I hope you enjoy this meditation with Avena sativa (Oatstraw) where I invite you to put down tiny roots and move like the plant, to have an experience of freedom, fluidity and earth connection.
This meditation is also available in her classic herbal "The Gift of Healing Herbs".
BUY THE BOOK
Robin Rose Bennett is a story-teller, writer, and herbalist. She has been offering classes in Wisewoman Healing Ways: Herbal Medicine and EarthSpirit Teachings since 1986 - at herb conferences, festivals, clinics, medical and nursing schools, and most joyously, outside with the plants. Robin Rose shares herbal medicine with gratitude for the loving generosity of the plants and the magic, mystery, and beauty of the web of life.
She is on the faculty of the New York Open Center and the Arbor-Vitae School of Traditional Herbalism, and is the author of two meditation mp3’s and the books: Healing Magic- A Green Witch Guidebook to Conscious Living and The Gift of Healing Herbs- Plant Medicines and Home Remedies for a Vibrantly Healthy Life.

Learn more and register for The Botanical Resins Workshop Series
Resins can be an overlooked substance when it comes to herbalism.
They’re common in aromatherapy, incense and perfumery, but what about the rest of their countless benefits?
Resins can be used in balms, salves, liniments, creams, serums, massage oils, body butters and so on.
The ancient systems of medicine treasured resins so much and often referred to them as “liquid gold,” and “food of the gods”.
Resins have been prized over the ages for their use in beauty products and skin care preparations, and of course, for their aromas…
We’re excited to share an amazing new series – which is ALL about resins – from our friend
Evan, founder of The Northwest School of Aromatic Medicine.
It’s called The Botanical Resins Workshop Series.
In this free course he’s making it a point to talk about the many different ways resins can be used.
He’ll help you see why resins are so precious and often have MORE medicine and aromatics than a lot of other botanicals you might be working with.
He’s also going to walk you through how to make infused resin oils and resin-based salves that can be used for superior first aid, skin care, and much more.
Join this complimentary workshop and start watching the first lesson now.
This fun and informative series is available for a limited time so be sure to sign up today!
Hope you enjoy

The Spice Rack Medicine Winter Online Series
LEARN MORE AND REGISTER
Registration CLOSES December 13th! Class begins in early January.
This course covers the rich subject of Kitchen Medicine, demystifying herbalism and bringing it back into the home.
We'll explore the amazing medicinal uses of the culinary herbs and ways to capture their properties for medicine, both in herbal preparations and in our food. Among the most ancient of plants included in humans' diets, these plants are still much-loved and utilized in modern herbalism today
We will also delve deeply into the subject of "food as medicine". Deep immunity- true health that comes from the core- is best built through nourishing foods and the tonic herbs. We'll learn how to eat right for our personal constitutions, understand the energetics of different foods, use the tonic herbs and medicinal mushrooms daily in the kitchen, and how to get the most nutritionally from the foods we eat. There will also, of course, be plenty of medicine-making and cooking demos as well!
If you've ever wanted to explore herbalism but have felt overwhelmed and unsure which herbs are safe and effective, kitchen medicine is a great place to start! Foods like garlic, ginger, onions, rosemary, and cayenne have been used therapeutically across the globe for thousands of years and offer an amazing entry point into herbalism and natural health.
Or maybe you're a seasoned herbalist looking to bring more familiar and accessible herbs into your practice. Either way, in this course you'll learn the many facets of kitchen medicine and become fluent in the language of "food as medicine" and the top medicinal herbs to work with in the kitchen!

LEARN MORE AND REGISTER
January 2 - April 4, 2023
Why work with plant spirit?
This is not the same as working with plant medicine, constituent medicine. Working with teas and tinctures for health is usually very far removed from working with plant spirit. You are using a plant, not working with a plant.
When the plants know and trust you, they will do incredible things. One plant will help you to move through a place unnoticed, another helps you find your way home.
One offers protection from certain difficult spirits, another plant reveals what is hidden. Plants that can open up our senses and psyche, while we are in relationship with them, can do incredible healing work. This relational work is not about ingesting constituents of plants/trees, it requires something more of us.

CLASS DESCRIPTION
Before talking about Lobelia, Missy wants to stress that Lobelia should only be taken in small doses, always listen to your body when taking this herbal medicine, and make sure to label your product differently from the rest so it sticks out and is easily recognizable.
Missy talks all things Lobelia such as how to harvest, how to prep as a tincture, the cautions, benefits, effects and more!
Lobelia is great for muscle aches, but it also works if you find yourself swirling down that “fight or flight” mode. Taking a low dosage of Lobelia during a panic attack, anxiety, or a stressfull situations can help you to take a deep breath, rest, digest and relax.

Today's episode is all about myrrh! With frequent HerbRally contributor, Heather Irvine.
Heather has a fantastic new audio project that you should know about!
It's called "Sound Wise about Medicinal Plants".
LISTEN HERE
Heather was super on board with the HerbRally Podcast and audio monographs right from the start.
We were both looking for herbal learning to listen to while multitasking and before HerbRally weren't finding many resources, "just a few dry audiobooks about antioxidants written by and read by robots", says Heather.
Obviously, things have come a long way with better audiobooks and great herbal podcasts.
But Heather has started her own audio-lesson learning catalog: Sound Wise About Medicinal Plants
She adds to it almost daily, with rich half-hour to 45-minute audio lessons on medicinal plants, some for a small access fee, and most are still free! You'll want to check it out soon though and subscribe to one of the free soundcasts, or check out a more specific topic too.

Are you confused about insurance for herbal businesses? You're not alone! Join the Herbal Business Program and get straight-forward advice about each type of business insurance: do you need it, will it actually cover you, and most importantly, how to read the fine print so that you know for sure what you're getting! You'll also learn all the other things you should be thinking about when you think about insurance - including how to create a "due-diligence" file for yourself so that if anything ever does happen, your lawyers will have everything they need to defend you. Of course, the likelihood of this kind of trouble is less than the likelihood of being struck by lightning: but if you're thinking about insurance, why not also take these simple steps just to make sure you've covered every possible base! And that's not all: the Herbal Business Program covers every aspect of your herbal business - from building your business plan all the way through to cross-platform marketing.

Today, we're talking about how to know whether you're ready to start a clinical practice. As part of New Practitioner Week, I've been asking people about the hardest part of getting a clinical practice started.
"Knowing if I'm ready" has been a top answer. In this episode, I share some info about how to know if you're ready and how to know if you're in the "bull in a china shop" phase 😮. If you're in the "I'm ready!" phase, come join us for New Practitioner Week.

This episode was recorded at the event ‘Planting the Future: Medicinal Plant Conservation in the Driftless Region’ hosted by United Plant Saverson August 12, 2017 in Wisconsin.
Thank you to Sam Thayer and Susan Leopold for sharing this!
Beyond, sustainable harvest, we look at the long-term future of our landscape, and the special role that plant gatherers have in maintaining its ecology and prosperity.
We'll talk about the threats and historical changes to our ecosystems, and discuss strategies to work and grow past them. We can do more than just "reduce our impact"—we can be a positive force to create and maintain vibrant and diverse communities of native plants that are at once productive for us and a paradise for wildlife.
Nurturing the land that nurtures us. The Driftless Area will be used as an example for ecological and management concepts that apply everywhere. We'll explore some traditional, mutually beneficial relationships between Native peoples and the plants that support them, and discuss practical techniques for implementing this kind of harmony on our own sacred gathering grounds.

CLASS DESCRIPTION:
Herbs and plants are magical – they can awaken us to the magic available in every moment and help reconnect us to the natural world and our true selves. Used wisely, with respect, gratitude and intention, they help us to deepen our sense of connectedness to Spirit and cultivate trust in our own inner wisdom.
We'll explore how roses, linden blossoms, mugwort/cronewort, Grandmother cedar and other plant allies taken as teas, tinctures, or infusions, and enjoyed in anointing oils, ointments, smokes and baths – help open our “third eye”, guide our dreams and trance journeys, help us create safe and sacred space, and evoke healing visions in meditation, ritual, and ceremony.

CLASS DESCRIPTION:
Herbs and plants are magical – they can awaken us to the magic available in every moment and help reconnect us to the natural world and our true selves. Used wisely, with respect, gratitude and intention, they help us to deepen our sense of connectedness to Spirit and cultivate trust in our own inner wisdom.
We'll explore how roses, linden blossoms, mugwort/cronewort, Grandmother cedar and other plant allies taken as teas, tinctures, or infusions, and enjoyed in anointing oils, ointments, smokes and baths – help open our “third eye”, guide our dreams and trance journeys, help us create safe and sacred space, and evoke healing visions in meditation, ritual, and ceremony.

CLASS DESCRIPTION:
There is an exciting movement afoot in American herbalism. We are resurrecting the Western System of Energetics where the language fits our culture. Working from the six tissue states and teachings of the physiomedicalists, this system is both intuitive and clinically accurate.
To observe patterns of disease we need to observe patterns in nature first to grasp harmonies and disharmonies. Winds that dry, waters that swell, heat that rises, cold that depresses are all vital expressions of nature that play out in our organs, joints, muscles, thoughts and spirit.
This is the practice of traditional folk herbalism where nature is observed and the inherent self-regulating systems of the body are acknowledged and supported.

The Marketing as Gardening Course presented by Sovereignty Herbs
LEARN MORE AND REGISTER
Register by August 25, 2022 for an early bird bonus!
Do you feel lost when it comes to marketing your herbal services such as consultations, free clinics, workshops, herb walks, and online classes? Do you feel like you’re doing (or not doing) something that everyone else is doing successfully (and maybe thinking ‘I guess I just don’t have a green thumb for this’)?
It’s easy to get discouraged by ALL THE THINGS we are supposed to be doing ALL THE TIME to market our herbal services. Updating social media, sending out emails, answering direct messages, creating and printing flyers…the list goes on and on and on and….
New marketing technology leads us to believe that it should be easy to promote and book out our herbal services using this simple formula: open app + add a visual + say something ~very~ important = sell out your workshop. Repeat. But if it were that easy, why do so many of us only get crickets? Why isn’t anyone signing up (and why can’t I get that darn basil to grow)?
The fact is we shouldn’t all be vying for the same audience – especially when we want as many people to have access to herbalism as possible (and no, this is not another class on boosting your social media followers and likes, it’s much bigger than that)...
- We shouldn’t have to copy other’s successes because we are struggling with our own—when we tap into our own authenticity we shine! Sometimes the most jaw-dropping gardens are the wildest and least conventional...
- We shouldn’t be burning out on churning out new content again and again…we can compost and rework our creative content to form a consistent message that nourishes our success as herbal educators and practitioners….
- We shouldn’t have to beg people to be in our programs – our biggest fans will show up and stick with us (just like those friends that come over and absolutely love galavanting around your garden with you smelling and tasting and seeing all the beautiful things).
Trying to promote your herbal services may be an overwhelming task - the outcome of which often feels out of our control. But it doesn’t have to be. While the tools of marketing have evolved and will continue to evolve, the core principles of how to be successful are still the same….kinda’ like gardening.

Today's episode is a snippet of Dana's class "Medicinal and Resilient Weeds".
This is a class inside our member area, HerbRally Schoolhouse.
We come out with new classes every week!
CLASS DESCRIPTION
Sit down with Dana as she teaches us the benefits and why we should pay more attention to weeds growing all around us. Weeds have been deemed nuisances, and today Dana wants to change that perspective and dive a little deeper and get to know and love these resilient and brave plants.
She touches on 4 different weeds, where they grow, their energetics, benefits, uses, what parts to harvest and prep for topical or internal uses.
This topic holds a special place in Dana’s heart and hopes that instead of trying to get rid of these abundant beautiful teachers, you will have a new love and appreciation for weeds and incorporate them in your household if you feel inspired to do so.

And you gotta lotta nerve
coming here easing all my pain.
You're still mending, all my loose endings

Today's episode is Howie Brounstein's keynote from the 2019 Breitenbush Herbal Conference.
I'm so grateful Howie recorded this and allowed HerbRally to publish this on the podcast.
However, this was recorded on Howie's phone. So the audio quality isn't the greatest.
Howie did take some time to clean up the sound a bit. It's definitely listenable and there are many gems and takeaways!
I had the honor of being co-organizer of this event and was so thrilled that Howie gave the first keynote to kick off the weekend.
This was right before Rising Appalachia took the stage!
Howie was my first herbal mentor (along with Steven Yeager).
He is the owner and lead instructor at the Columbines School of Botanical Studies.
If you're looking for an herbalism apprenticeship with a heavy focus on botany, wildcrafting, herbalism and anatomy and physiology, I can't recommend his school enough.
Learn more about the Columbines School of Botanical Studies at BotanicalStudies.net
Also be sure to give Howie a follow on Instagram
@howiebrounstein and @columbinesschoolofbs
He's always posting great herbal content!
Thanks again to Howie for sharing this audio, and thanks to y'all for listening!

She grew up with brothers, so she was always thinking creatively on how to tease them. She came across some plants and realized you can shoot, throw, and use these plants in a playful way.

Resins can be an overlooked substance when it comes to herbalism.
They’re common in aromatherapy, incense and perfumery, but what about the rest of their countless benefits?
Resins can be used in balms, salves, liniments, creams, serums, massage oils, body butters and so on.
The ancient systems of medicine treasured resins so much and often referred to them as “liquid gold,” and “food of the gods”.
Resins have been prized over the ages for their use in beauty products and skin care preparations, and of course, for their aromas…
We’re excited to share an amazing new series – which is ALL about resins – from our friend
Evan, founder of The Northwest School of Aromatic Medicine.
It’s called The Botanical Resins Workshop Series.
In this free course he’s making it a point to talk about the many different ways resins can be used.
He’ll help you see why resins are so precious and often have MORE medicine and aromatics than a lot of other botanicals you might be working with.
He’s also going to walk you through how to make infused resin oils and resin-based salves that can be used for superior first aid, skin care, and much more.
Join this complimentary workshop and start watching the first lesson now.
This fun and informative series is available for a limited time so be sure to sign up today!
Hope you enjoy

Why Stories From the Earth?
Mankind’s relationship to the natural world is as diverse and dynamic as each individual plant, animal, mineral, and piece of geography. There are many ways that we can engage with our living planet, be it through herbalism, gardening, hiking and other explorations, meditation and observation, and even artistic expressions.
There are many ways for us to connect, and it is important to do so, as the human species is not a separate entity from the whole web of life. Each takes their own path. This series explores some of the many ways in which people may weave a tapestry of meaning in coexistence and mutuality with what surrounds us, these are Stories From the Earth.

Black Walnut Botanical Conference
August 12 - 14, 2022
Spring City, PA
We’re delighted to have the opportunity to offer a very special weekend to deepen our connections with nature, with the plants, and to gather with one another. The yearly themes for the Black Walnut will be in honor of one of our greatest teachers - the plants of course!
Our herb theme for 2022 is the quietly mighty, Plantain!
The center of focus for the Black Walnut Botanical Conference is on the plants and herbal education, but there will be so much more! A variety of classes, wild weed walks and activities will take place throughout the weekend.
We invite you to participate in as many as you wish, or to use this time and space as your personal retreat.
Our conference setting is Innabah, in the beautiful Philadelphia countryside of Chester County, PA. Innabah offers close to 200 acres for our use, and we are grateful that they have opened their doors, meadows, forests, and waters to us.
The Black Walnut is by, for, and about that which draws us closer to one another—our love of the plants. We look forward to meeting you; join us as we celebrate weaving this thread through our community!

In today's episode, we welcome musician Maggie Clifford on the podcast! Listen in as she tells us about her new music and how it helps her reconnect with the life that surrounds us. She even plays a few song for us.
It's an honor and a treat to have such a talented musician on the podcast. I hope you enjoy the episode as much as we did!

Audio Production: Supermoon Creative
“Come The Rain”, the newest single from Gainesville, FL experimental folk artist Maggie Clifford, will drop June 14th on Spirit House Records. The new track deftly blends a Celtic melodic structure with a modern folk charm. “Come the Rain” is a love song to community and conveys the depth of commitment required to maintain strong relationships in our chosen families. Through depictions of nature and the seasonal passage of time, Clifford’s song is a reminder that true community means being there for each other in the good times as well as the bad, come the drought and come the rain.
This is Clifford’s debut release with Spirit House Records and marks her first time working with a label. With several songs in various stages of production, Clifford plans to release an EP within the year. “Come the Rain” was produced by Bob McPeek (Bo Diddley, Mo Tucker, Sister Hazel) and features George Tortorelli on bamboo flute and Rob Rothschild on percussion.
MORE ON MAGGIE CLIFFORD:
Born and raised in a suburb of Rochester, NY, Clifford’s first project as a professional musician was with childhood best friend Kat Wright. Their folk duo, Loveful Heights, toured cross-country in 2010 and followed up the tour by recording their self-titled album. In collaboration with Wright, Clifford has opened for M. Ward and been featured in the 2017 film, The King, which was nominated for a Grammy in the Best Music Film category, an Emmy in the Best Documentary category, and for the Golden Eye Award at the Cannes Film Festival.
Clifford has performed in venues in France, India, Brazil and across the United States. As a solo artist, she has written music for multiple documentary film projects, including Petra Costa’s feature-length directorial debut ELENA (2012). Clifford released an album inspired by her work on ELENA, a film that deals explicitly with mental health issues for women artists. ELENA was the most watched documentary in Brazil the year of its release and Clifford’s song was referred to as “the soul of the film” by its director. The soundtrack, which includes several songs by and with Clifford, went on to be awarded Best Original Soundtrack by Ciné Musica.
Since the release of her ELENA-inspired album in 2013, Clifford has recorded several singles including her most widely streamed, “Earth My Body” a love song for the living world.
Clifford is currently a PhD candidate studying climate change communication at American University. Her academic work often informs the thematic elements of her songs. Her most recent release (November 2021), was recorded with Gainesville musician Ricky Kendall and pays homage to acclaimed songwriter and musician Nanci Griffith, who passed away in August, 2021. Trouble in the Fields, a song by Griffith, portrays the resilience of a multi-generational farming family as they struggle to make ends meet and sustain their way of life.

Diving Board by Shel Silverstein:
"You’ve been up on that diving board
Making sure that it’s nice and straight.
You’ve made sure that it’s not too slick.
You’ve made sure it can stand the weight.
You’ve made sure that the spring is tight.
You’ve made sure that the cloth won’t slip.
You’ve made sure that it bounces right,
And that your toes can get a grip– –
And you’ve been up there since half past five
Doin’ everything … but DIVE."
In today's episode, Dr. Kevin Spelman teaches us about the effectiveness of using gummies as an excellent format for absorption. He also chats a bit about the history.
To learn more about Kevin and all of his amazing work, I highly recommend you check out The Spelman Report at TheSpelmanReport.com.
Huge thanks to Kevin for sharing this presentation with all of us!
About Kevin:
Dr. Kevin Spelman has dedicated the past three decades to researching, advising and teaching in the natural products realm. He is an avid proponent of education in botanical medicine, having trained physicians in course work, mentored naturopathic students in clinical rotations and medicinal plant research, and he co-founded the first Master of Science program in Clinical Herbal Medicine. Understanding the effect of plant compounds on the molecular pathways of human health has been an important part of Dr. Spelman’s work.

Today's episode is a short little snippet of audio from Christina Sanchez's class from our membership site, HerbRally Schoolhouse.
Christina Sanchez is a true herbalist of the desert. In this class, she teaches us about one of the desert plants she has a major passion for, the Joshua tree (which you’ll learn isn’t technically a tree). She covers the ecology, associated fauna and pollinators, some botany, but perhaps most importantly, the importance of protecting it.
After taking this class, you’re sure to come away with more appreciation for this beautiful plant, and perhaps some ideas on how we can protect it.

What’s more frugal than free?
Dumpster diving is frowned upon by society at large, but after completing module two with our teacher, Guisepi Spadafora, you’re likely to have a new view on this misunderstood means of acquiring delicious, healthy and free food.
This video is lesson one of the dumpster diving module in HerbRally's first course: The Art of Frugal Nutrition.
In this module, you’ll learn the why, how, dangers and legalities of this adventurous activity. He tells some great stories throughout the lessons, and you’ll also be treated to a live action dumpster dive with both him and Mason as they venture out into the night in Somewheresville, USA.
Guisepi Spadafora has been traveling the country for more than a decade with Edna Lu the Free Tea Bus offering free tea as a community-building project. He finds joy in resource reclamation, tinkering, empowering people with real skills, and creating a more sharing world through gifting.

Join this richly packed workshop to shift the way you think about food, your body and your energy. Many of us, feeling the overwhelm of the past year, have found ourselves looking for comfort and pleasure in food, perhaps more than usual. We all eat emotionally - this is such a normal and human thing! However, if you feel like your habits around eating are weighing you down rather than nourishing you, and you want a more satisfying relationship with food, with less guilt, this is the workshop for you.
Designed to get to the root of stress eating and unwanted emotional eating, the two-hour workshop will be a forum for the sharing of herbs, techniques and ‘bio-hacks’ that are the backbone of powerful, lasting transformation. As well as providing the tools to empower you to change your habits, the session will include interactive exercises and journal prompts.
Natasha Clarke is a traditional western herbalist and regular Kaylo practitioner and contributor. She uses the myriad of fantastic local plants and trees in her herbal practice on Camano Island, Washington State, and teaches around the US, connecting the wisdom of the land into people's hearts with the use of medicinal herbs and earth centric practices. Anna Matriotti is a clinical herbalist, nutritional therapy practitioner and eating psychology coach. She weaves her passion for herbs, food and functional anatomy into a warm and grounded approach to well-being and health.

Plant Spirit Apprenticeship - Winter/Spring 2022
"A Council of the Forest Guardians"
LEARN MORE AND REGISTER
The Winter/Spring 2022 Apprenticeship will be centered on forests. Who are the forest guardians? What might we learn about forest dwellers and the mystery of forest medicine? In this year's work, the lines between tree/plant spirit and land spirit will start to blur.
The plants are calling out to us, to come to know them, to accept their friendship and unique medicine for our times. Will you come to apprentice to them? Will you sit and listen to them?
This offering is BIG. It is immersive. It is for those select few that are ready.
Relationships with plant spirit are those that are held dear, and have taken significant amounts of time to develop and are rarely written about in-depth. People who do this work tend to be out of the spotlight, in remote places, in deep relationship with the land. You may be able to study with them, but they cannot reveal the deep secrets of the plant. You must study with the plant for them to be revealed to you.
This is initiatory work that few have done.
This is an experiential knowing, that is so far beyond our human vocabulary, it cannot be communicated properly to someone who hasn’t apprenticed with the plant themselves. It is a deep knowing of the energy and spirit of this plant being. Many plants demand your attention, intention and respect to reveal the deepest part of themselves and their relationships. They are really no different than we are right? We hold our deep knowings dear too. Revealed only to those we know and trust.
There is an etiquette to working with plant spirit. Each plant is very different to work with and this work requires trusted guides. There will be several guides we work with in developing relationship.
Why work with plant spirit?
This is not the same as working with plant medicine, constituent medicine. Working with teas and tinctures for health is usually very far removed from working with plant spirit. You are using a plant, not working with a plant.
When the plants know and trust you, they will do incredible things. One plant will help you to move through a place unnoticed, another helps you find your way home. One offers protection from certain difficult spirits, another plant reveals what is hidden. Plants that can open up our senses and psyche, while we are in relationship with them, can do incredible healing work. This relational work is not about ingesting plants/trees, it requires something more of us.

The Art of Frugal Nutrition
Registration is now open!
Are you looking to feed you and your family nourishing food without spending a lot of money? That’s our mission with the Art of Frugal Nutrition. This concept has been a dream of mine to create for years now, and it’s finally here! Well, truthfully, I always thought it’d be a book. But in these modern times, courses are a lot more valuable because of the ability to follow along with the instructional videos.
The other thing is, I wanted to learn from the experts themselves. While I have studied nutrition a lot over the years, and I’ve experimented plenty in the kitchen, the teachers we’re working with on this course are the true experts!
The Art of Frugal Nutrition is:
SLIDING SCALE | It seemed antithetical for us to create a course based around eating on a budget and have it not be accessible to the people who need it the most. Thus there are discount codes for 50%, 75%, and 100% off. That is correct, you can get this course for free. If you do register for free, and you feel moved to you can always contribute to this project financially at a later date. We appreciate you no matter what! FULL PRICE IS $100
AN EVER-EXPANDING COURSE | You’ll notice there are currently three modules available. That’s fermentation, dumpster diving and bone broth. The beauty of this course is that it will always grow, meaning new modules will be added periodically. We already have three more in the pipeline. This probably goes without saying, but once you register for the course, you’ll have access to all of the modules, including the new ones.
A FUNDRAISER | 10% of the profits from sales of this course will be donated to World Central Kitchen, a non-profit whose mission is to use the power of food to nourish communities and strengthen economies in times of crisis and beyond.
A COMMUNITY | When you register, you’ll gain access to a private Facebook group dedicated to sharing and learning frugal nutrition concepts, recipes, ideas, and more. This group is brand new, so it’s probably just me and a couple others in there! I know Facebook isn’t everyone’s jam, so we’re looking into alternatives for creating a community space elsewhere, but this is what we got for now.

In this class, you will explore herbal medicine and plant allies that offer support through the grieving process.
You will learn a wide range of preparations, from teas to baths to facial sprays, as well as a whole basketful of recipes. You’ll learn how to use dried herbs, tinctures, flower essences, and oils to create a full array of support.

You will learn:
herbs for emotional & spiritual support
herbs to physically support the body during grieving
a variety of herbal preparations — because not everyone drinks herbal tea or will take a tincture
You will get:
an “Herbs for Grieving” recipe book

“I wanted to know, how did women have 13 children?.. How did people take care of their children when they fell down and broke their arms way back in the Middle Ages? People have had these things going on ever since the beginning of time and they’ve dealt with it.

Setting up a clinical practice is daunting and requires direction, support, and confidence. When first starting out in clinical practice, there are many factors to consider; from herbalism and the law, overheads, clinical skills, forms, and policies, to preparing your own extracts, formulating for clients, and managing your dispensary.
Join Erika Galentin MNIMH, RH (AHG) and Brooke Sackenheim of Sovereignty Herbs for an exploration of the many facets of modern clinical herbal practice and details that you might want to consider in setting up your own herbal clinic including:
Why having good clinical forms is the cornerstone of a solid clinical practice and what types of forms you should have ready to go.
The importance of considering 'the business' of clinical practice including consultation options and setting fees, professional and liability insurance, the free clinical model, and accounting.
Professional practicalities and ethical considerations including Scope of Practice, Herbalism & the law, Privacy and Confidentiality, & Non-discrimination policies.
Marketing considerations including being familiar with what you can and cannot say in print, on your website, to the media, and on social media and how this helps to build a trustworthy brand.
What you need to be thinking about in regards to getting herbs and supplements to your clients including managing a clean and compliant dispensary.
Erika and Brooke also cover information about Sovereignty Herbs' new program, Spring into Herbal Practice: An Online Intensive for Landing the Leap from Student to Practitioner, as well as opportunities for formal mentorship with Erika Galentin.

Struggling to stay centered? When we’re feeling overwhelmed or burned-out, breathwork offers a fast-acting and natural way to reset and recharge. Chandra bhedana, or “lunar breathing,” is an easy exercise that helps relax the body and declutter the mind. This simple meditation uses cyclical breath to flush out distraction and fatigue and bring in intention and energy. Lunar breathing can be done most anytime, anywhere, but you may find it helpful to create a calm atmosphere with a candle, essential oils, or a soothing herbal extract.

ROOTED MEDICINE CIRCLE
As herbs have become increasingly popular, the true heart of herbal medicine is at risk...
Today there’s a lot of emphasis on what herbs are “good for.” Take turmeric for inflammation! Dandelion root for the liver!
But when we reduce plants to a simple equation of “take xyz herb for xyz problem,” the soul of herbal medicine is erased.
Herbalism isn't about throwing back dropperfuls of a tincture. It's about transforming your life by becoming deeply rooted in the natural world, its seasonal rhythms, and your place within it.
That’s why we’re excited to share Rooted Medicine Circle, a new course from my friends Rosalee de la Forêt and Emily Han. (You might know them as the best-selling authors of Wild Remedies and Alchemy of Herbs.)
Rooted Medicine Circle guides you in how to make powerful herbal medicines while also strengthening your relationship with nature.
Instead of buying supplements off the shelf, you’ll be working directly with the plants to create herbal medicines uniquely suited to your preferences.
As you learn core medicine making skills, you’ll fill your home apothecary with effective remedies and nourishing foods, like locally sourced bitters for digestion; salves and ointments to nourish your skin; and potent tinctures, teas, syrups, and more.
Rooted Medicine Circle opens just once a year, and it’s now open for enrollment.
Check it out here.
On the Rooted Medicine Circle enrollment page, Rosalee and Emily also included an extensive sample from the course! It’s a tutorial on making teas and decoctions and includes a reference chart to show you how to make teas with over 100 common plants. Even if this course isn’t right for you right now, you’ll get a lot out of this sample lesson!

Class Description
More than half of American adults suffer from acid reflux and heartburn each year, and acid-reducing proton-pump inhibitor drugs are the third most prescribed class of drugs in the nation. Yes these medications do not address the root cause of disease and come with serious long-term side effects. One approach does not fit all! Let’s delve into the different types and causes of acid reflux and heartburn, how herbal and holistic practitioners can assess clients during the intake, and different approaches to addressing heartburn and reflux customized to the client’s patterns including SIBO, low acidity, poor signaling, sphincter issues, and gastric inflammation. We’ll focus primarily on herbal and dietary approaches. We’ll also cover the pros and cons of potential classes of herbs including mucilaginous herbs, vulneraries, astringents, antimicrobials, carminatives, bitters, sours/vinegar, and pungent herbs. Tips for supporting clients as they wean off PPIs will be included. Download the slides at https://wintergreenbotanicals.com/gerd/

"I feel like I should tell you that you + your school have literally changed my entire life. I worked in the restaurant industry until COVID, and 7 months into my furlough, I found Plant Spirit Healing by Pam Montgomery on my shelf (it was one of those books that I had bought and just never read). By the third chapter, I had begun researching herbalism, and after an overwhelming amount of information + options, the universe aligned me with your school. I enrolled, and a month later I officially quit my restaurant job, and last week I started working on a small farm in Bellville, where my focus will be the herb garden + greenhouse. I cannot thank you enough for the knowledge and time that you’ve put into your courses, and just your life’s work in general. Everything that has happened in my life since discovering herbalism + you + your school feels like it’s been divinely guided. So, thank you thank you thank you. You are the coolest, and I am forever grateful."

Chaotic Good is Warren’s fifth full-length album and first for Wax Nine/Carpark Records. It represents a moment of rupture in the singer-songwriter’s career as she transitions away from the quiet, folk-adjacent work that defined her early solo albums with a bold statement piece that demonstrates the breadth of her ambition. Here, Warren flits between crushing admissions set to spare piano solos and muscular declarations of independence that have more in common with grunge acts of bygone years than anything we’ve heard from Warren in the past. “The last few years I’ve had an urge to change my name, or create some alter-ego,” she says. “But I’ve come to realize that ‘Johanna’ is already just a character. We think we know who we are based on what’s already happened, but we’re allowed to make new choices.” The oceanic, soothing single “Bed of Nails” illustrates that realization perfectly when Warren sings: “I tried a little bit too hard to be myself/It turned me into something else.”
Recording Chaotic Good was an exercise in self-reinvention. Warren decided to produce the album on her own, borrowing recording equipment from a friend to do much of the preliminary tracking alone in a garage. She enlisted a few key collaborators to fully enliven her vision, most notably former Sticklips bandmates Chris St. Hilaire and Jim Bertini. On the raucously resilient “Part of It,” Warren is joined by her musical brethren as she addresses a noncommittal narcissist and—a trademark of Warren’s work—the narrator’s complicity in her own suffering: “Don’t look at me like I’m the one holding you back/and I won’t look at you like you have something I lack.” Adding to the album’s dynamism is the fact that it took shape over the course of four years in studios across the United States while Warren was touring her most recent albums Gemini I and II. Warren uses words like “patchwork” and “scrapbook” to describe Chaotic Good; it is a collection of sonic snapshots that transport her to specific places in time with each listen.
“This album is about learning how to be with myself after a lifetime of codependent relationships,” Warren says. You can hear that especially well on “Twisted,” which finds her confronting a former lover, and ultimately, letting them go. “I’m a warrior, but I give up,” Warren howls, the surrounding production warping and distorting as her raw vocal crests to an acidic scream. Though her lyrics are resigned, her delivery is anything but. It is a moment of total abandon, when the multitudinous aspects of a personality coalesce to form something at once dazzling and monstrous. “Chaotic Good is a metamorphosis,” Warren says. “It’s my phoenix moment. Everything I’ve done before was just building the funeral pyre.”
Johanna Warren is a multi-instrumentalist and producer who began her career as a singer/songwriter in the Brooklyn-based psych folk band Sticklips. The group released two albums before disbanding in 2012, and after a stint performing backup vocals for Iron & Wine, Warren self-released her debut solo album, Fates, in 2013. The album prompted her to tour nationally under her own name, and since then, she’s led a nomadic existence, calling cities across the United States home for short periods of time.
Over the past few years, Warren has toured alongside Mitski, Julie Byrne, and Marissa Nadler, but a life on the road hasn’t slowed her output. In 2015, she released her sophomore album nūmūn to acclaim, propelling her to the forefront of artists to watch in the second half of the decade. Warren dedicated the spellbinding collection of acoustically-driven songs to the phases of the moon and to the divine feminine — forces of great power and consequence that are all-too often overlooked.
The following year, Warren announced a twin set of albums released on her own label Spirit House, which promoted a radically inclusive, artist-friendly ethos. Each of the songs on Gemini I corresponds with a song on Gemini II, which debuted later, in 2018. The two albums are in conversation with one another, offering up a character sketch of dueling personalities vying for acceptance. To contrast nūmūn, which was rendered using a simple palate of acoustic instruments, the arrangements on Gemini I and II integrated a wide array of instrumentation and more palpable percussion, furnished with help from a small cohort of Warren’s longtime collaborators.
Following the release of Gemini II, Warren embarked on her extensive Plant Medicine Tour, during which she invited local herbalists, farmers, and activists to come and share resources with attendees about alternative remedies. In the spare moments between tour stops, Warren recorded her latest album in studios across the United States. Entirely self-produced, Chaotic Good is Warren’s first album for Wax Nine/Carpark and it is her boldest to date, finding her in a state of transition as she introduces listeners to a new phase of her artistry.

In this episode, we’ll hear from Herbal Academy in a spoken lesson about adaptogens with herbalist teacher Heather Irvine.

You’ll learn a bit about how herbs can gently and positively influence the nervous system, endocrine system, and immune system (as well as how these work together.)

We'll talk about the threats and historical changes to our ecosystems, and discuss strategies to work and grow past them. We can do more than just "reduce our impact"—we can be a positive force to create and maintain vibrant and diverse communities of native plants that are at once productive for us and a paradise for wildlife. Nurturing the land that nurtures us. The Driftless Area will be used as an example for ecological and management concepts that apply everywhere. We'll explore some traditional, mutually beneficial relationships between Native peoples and the plants that support them, and discuss practical techniques for implementing this kind of harmony on our own sacred gathering grounds.

In today’s episode, Suzanne Tabert from the Cedar Mountain Herb School goes in depth on one of the northwest’s most ubiquitous trees, the Douglas Fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii)! She covers harvesting, preparations, parts used, and there’s even some story-telling. Enjoy!
A message from Suzanne:
When I started teaching herbal workshops and programs more than 30 years ago, I was simply overwhelmed. I was incredibly excited, of course, but I had so many questions. Am I doing this right? Am I really ready to be teaching others? How do I make sure I'm making a positive impact on my students? There wasn't anyone near to mentor me. I was on my own.
In my decades in this industry, I've amassed a huge amount of knowledge not only about herbalism, but about teaching, building a business, bringing in students who are as passionate about plants as I am, and so much more. I taught myself how to teach, and lots of mistakes were made. Through all the trial-and-error, I came out on the other side an excellent herbalist, teacher, and business owner. However, I always wished I had had someone to show me the way.
Now that I've made it to where I am today, I have made it my mission to help others with their own journeys. I, like many of you, have found my calling in spreading my passion for plants and herbs to others! And I am ready to help you do the same.
If you feel the pull to craft your own herbal workshops and programs and build a successful herb school, this is your time to do it! I have put together the be-all-end-all of training programs this year to take you every step of the way through that process.

Hi Herbalists! Feeling restless? We heard that school teachers are reading books aloud online to their students at home while we wait out the flu pandemic. Maybe the grown people could use this kind of diversion, too. We're calling this an "Herbal Story Moment". Heather ran across this excerpt from the “The Perfume Vendor" in a Jeanne Rose book. The perfume vendor was actually written by a fourteen year old author in 1935, and this is just one little slice. We think you'll recognize some of the plants, and maybe even relate to the perfume vendor, Ben Neroli.
If you’d like to participate in an Herbal Story Moment by reading an excerpt from one of your books or blogs posts, feel free to reach out!

"Addiction is not a choice anybody makes, it is a response to emotional pain." - Gabor Maté
A huge thanks to Dana for taking the time to record this and share all of her wisdom with us!
Trained as a clinical herbalist, Dana Aronson takes joy in community based, hands on learning. She focuses her studies on bio-regional plants from the Pacific Northwest and intertwines them into her small practice based in Southern Oregon. After finishing a 3-year clinical herbalism program at Ohlone Herbal Center in Berkeley, California, she found her curiosity leading her to traveling herbal pop up clinics. These pop up clinics provide herbal first aid and wellness to a wide range of areas from gatherings to places that have been hit with natural devastation. She teaches in the classroom, through community herb walks, and cultivates her product line, Wild Kin Botanicals. She would like to thank some of her mentors for guidance along the way - Pam Fischer, Dixie Pauline, Greta de la Montagne, Will Morris, Lisa SF, Tanya Stiller, and Francisca Santibanez.

In this episode you'll hear from cultural worker Blanca S. Villalobos on the importance of reclaiming the dream realm and supportive plant allies.
Blanca identifies as a queer proud daughter of immigrants with roots in the Sierra Madre Occidental of México. Her work as an interdisciplinary artist braids themes such as identity, folklore and healing modalities. As an artist, she has been awarded residencies with Caldera Arts, Signal Fire, The Living School of Art and Residency in the Garden. Her integration of community organizing & art making has been supported through grants and fellowships by the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, the Calligram Foundation and Epicenter. While living on Multnomah territory Blanca taught bilingual anti-oppression curriculum to Latinx youth and their families in order to prevent gender-based violence, organized transit justice efforts with an environmental organization and founded a queer Latinx collective dedicated to community healing through arts and activism. She has been facilitating dream classes and workshops to all ages in homes, art galleries, community centers and conferences since 2016 and couldn't be happier. She has been an avid dreamer since she can remember and was called to share this work now as an adult.
After an almost 8 year cycle in the Pacific Northwest, Blanca returned to Southern California in early 2018 to give back to the land and people that raised her. She is now based in the high desert of Morongo Valley, CA on the traditional lands of the Serrano people. She is an artist, educator & cultural worker. In addition, Blanca volunteers as a backcountry guide for Signal Fire and is a recent council member for the Joshua Tree National Park Association.

Listen in as herbalist Dana Aronson talks all about the beautiful motherwort!
Motherwort’s latin name, Leonurus cardiaca, is depicted from the Greek word leon (lion), ouros (tail), and cardiaca, giving meaning to the heart. This sheds light to the common name, Lion’s Heart. In Europe, the name “motherwort,” has a literal meaning of “mother-herb.” With both of these names, this gives a small peek into the medical properties of this plant we know as Motherwort.

This week on the HerbRally podcast, Katja and Ryn talk about one of their Clinical Herbalist students and a case with autoimmune nephritis and hypothyroid. This case is particularly interesting because the herbal interventions were alongside conventional medical treatments, and there was plenty of lab testing to confirm the results they were getting. It's so exciting when you hear a doctor say "These test results are amazing. Tell me again what your herbal protocol was?".
This is just one example of how we work as professional herbalists. There are a lot of ways to make herbalism a career, and we can help you make it happen! The Clinical Herbalist online video course will give you the skills you need to take your practice of herbalism to the professional level. And when you've finished with that, they’ve even got mentorships that will help you with all the business aspects of getting started, as well as clinical mentorship to go through every single case with you as you're starting out on your own - it's so much easier when you've got support to rely on! They will even help you through the AHG professional membership process - they’re with you every step of the way.
All of their programs are taught with self-paced videos, and you can log in twice weekly to our live Q&A sessions to ask your questions live and in person if you like! There are integrated discussion threads right in every video so you can ask your questions right when you think of them, too! There are quizzes, printable quick guides, lots of scientific research and case studies, and more. Plus, you get lifetime access - you can watch the videos a million times if you want to!
Katja and Ryn have been teaching this clinical program here in Boston for the past 10 years, and it launches online on November 4th.
You really can build an herbal career for yourself. It's not just a dream: you can make it real in your life, and Katja and Ryn can help!

In this week’s episode with Commonwealth Center for Holistic Herbalism, Katja and Ryn talk about one of their Community Herbalist students who helped her elderly neighbor with her arthritis pain and also in dealing with insomnia. We shared her thought process as she selected the herbs she wanted to formulate, as well as the work she did to narrow down the problem of insomnia so that she could choose herbs that would really help.
This case study emphasizes the ways that we can strengthen community with our herbal skills. And whether you choose to volunteer your skills for your neighbors or are looking to start a career in supporting your community professionally, the bottom line is that we need one another. When we care for one another, when we build relationships, everyone is stronger.
Katja and Ryn are so excited about the community of learners that is growing around these video courses. Not only are all the courses taught in a self-paced video format, but they also have twice-weekly live sessions that you can log in to, so even though you are going at your own pace, you're never alone! You can chat with the whole community - and the teachers! - directly in the discussion thread that's a part of each video, too. This way, you're being supported by a vibrant community of people learning right along with you while you are supporting others in your local community with the skills you are learning!
Peggy says:
"I really, truly, madly love you guys and the community you have built with the plants and with us students. Not only that, but this all comes at the perfect time: it's been pulling me up through some darkness and has been a lifesaver. I love having something positive to focus on and I feel like the more I get herbs into my life, the more the awfulness I've been dealing with in my life is falling away."

Aromatic Distillation: A Ritual Journey of Self-Reflection (Intensive)
Aromatic distillation is alchemical in nature; it is a process that relies on the four elements of earth, air, fire, & water in the transmutation and capture of aromatic molecules from plants into hydrosols and essential oils. The Alchemists of old believed their work to be spiritual in nature. Modern alchemical scholars have interpreted this work metaphorically; Alchemy can be considered a collection of psychic processes shared within the totality of human experiences, or what Carl Jung termed the 'collective unconscious'. In this interpretation, the 'lead into gold' of the Alchemists becomes an inspirational allegory of the work required for the refinement of Self and emanation of the Soul.
The process of Aromatic Distillation is most certainly a spiritual one, involving both ceremony and celebration. It is an attempt to foster a deeper relationship with the plant kingdom, a relationship full of metaphor, story, and personal myth, while simultaneously developing deeper relationships with ourselves and our unconscious. In this regard, each distillation provides a platform for self-discovery and exploration of the natural world.
In this intensive workshop you will learn about the anatomy and physiology of aromatic distillation and participate in the process as a ritual journey of self-reflection. Participants are encouraged to bring with them stones, crystals, or personal symbols / items to contribute to the process and support each participant’s unique inner journey. Participants are also encouraged to bring a journal for self-reflection while the distillation is taking place. (Depending on #: Participants will be able to take a sample of the hydrosol home).
Shame, Inflammation, and our Herbal Allies: Unlocking the Inner Pillory
Join Clinical Herbalist, Erika Galentin, of Sovereignty Herbs on an exploration of the physiology of shame, what is known about its proinflammatory influence over physical wellbeing, and herbs and aromatics that may support navigating shame and its often treacherous terrain.
Topics to be covered include:
-
Framing the emotions and experiences of shame within the context of one's perceptions of physical health & wellbeing.
-
Exploring what is known about the physiology of shame and its proinflammatory influence over the human body.
-
A discussion on the relationship between inflammation & common health problems.
- Herbs and aromatics that may support the physical body, psyche, and spiritual needs of those who are navigating shame and its often treacherous terrain.
Demystifying Herb-Drug Interactions
Many people get very frightened when they think about herbs and drugs interacting with each other. Some even may feel defensive about the idea that pharmaceutical medicine so easily puts herbs in the hot seat. In this class you will be introduced to the means by which herbs and drugs may interact with each other, for better or for worse. We will also be learning skills for easier interpretation of the scientific research investigating these interactions in order to discern their clinical relevance.
What you will learn:
-
Introduction to pharmacological terms
-
Pharmacokinetic & pharmacodynamic mechanisms
-
Which herbs & drugs present the highest risk
-
Other client-centered risk factors
-
How to avoid herb-drug interactions
- Skills to evaluate herb-drug interaction research
- How to discern clinical relevance

In today’s episode we’ll hear about three of herbalist Jean Madrone’s favorite summer herbs: St. John’s Wort, Selfheal, and Yarrow. Enjoy!
Jean Madrone is an herbalist, somatic experiencing trauma therapy practitioner, and mama living on Squaxin and Nisqually territory in Olympia, WA. Jean loves matchmaking plants and people. She loves the magic and the sacred in the everyday and the way that the work that she is honored to do can weave the two together. Jean’s work is grounded in clinical herbalism, nutrition, elemental constitution and magic, and harm reduction, and is informed by living with disability, by complex trauma and recovery. Jean was raised in the South and part of their heart will always be there. They really, really love the mountains and the waters in both places.
About Jean’s clinical program:
The Community Herbalist Clinical Skills Apprenticeship is a 180 hour program in Olympia, WA that will meet one full weekend a month for ten months. It is designed for students who have completed programs in materia medica and medicine making and want to go deeper into herbal medicine and clinical work. The focus will be on matchmaking plants and people, providing person-centered care, and treating the whole person- physical, emotional, and spiritual levels. There will be a particular emphasis on working with the nervous system, mental health, and trauma resolution. Throughout the course we will expand our working knowledge of materia medica and connect with the plants through plant sits and plant walks.

In today’s episode, we’ll hear Erika Galentin talk about Sovereignty Herbs’ exciting new offering!
Introducing an empowering journey of herbal discovery… …focusing on a single herb at a time. Each month you will be mailed a Discovery Box full of a variety of herbal and aromatic extracts to explore as well as seeds or the living plant itself to grow in your gardens or window sills! Through prompts from a beautiful downloadable journal, live online class time, and a private forum, you will be guided through simple techniques to hone your senses and develop intuitive yet learned relationships with herbs. Three and six month options available for our 2019 program.
Monthly mysteries delivered to your door… “I often tell my students that they must forget everything they think they know about the plant we are studying…at least while the study process is taking place. I even ask them not to call the plant by its human-given name, English or otherwise. For even in that second, when we give a plant a name, a label, we inevitably stop listening.” - Erika Galentin, Clinical Herbalist & Co-creator at Sovereignty Herbs
EACH 3-MONTH COURSE INCLUDES: Three Discovery Boxes: At the beginning of the month you receive a box containing one mystery plant in several forms. The name of the plant won’t be revealed until the second or third week of class, after you have had the opportunity to work with the Discovery Box contents. Though the contents may vary, each box will contain elements of the following:
- The Matter: the dried herb
- The Soul: aromatic preparation, hydrosol, or essential oil
- The Medicine: syrup, cordial, or tincture
- The Life: seed packet or live plant
- The Ritual: flower essence, framable photo, or incense
A Beautiful Workbook/Journal: This downloadable pdf journal guides and supports you through the discovery process using Planta Dyadica methods. It also provides a way of documenting your experiences and growing knowledge base. By the end of your program you will have created a profoundly beautiful record of your (un)learning process.
Private Facebook Group: You will be given access to the private Planta Dyadica Facebook group where you can interact with other plant lovers in the program, share your insights, and communicate directly with your instructors, Brooke and Erika. Several times a week discussion and journaling prompts will be shared to assist you in building a relationship with the plant in your Discovery Box. We will also be hosting two live events through this group.
Three Interactive Online Events:
Two Facebook Live Events: Join us for our first day of class as we unwrap our Discovery Boxes and review the materials. We will walk you through what to expect and where to start. In week two we gather together with our tea mugs and compare our findings in a live tea tasting.
One Live Webinar: During the third week of the month, join us for a live one-hour webinar where we reveal the name of the plant as well as discuss herbal actions and uses, relevant research, and other facts surrounding the plant’s biology, ecology, preferred growing conditions, and ethical harvesting techniques. Downloadable handouts included!
One Awesome Community Zine: At the end of each three month cohort, we will be publishing a zine that highlights everyone's experiences and ideas. As there are a variety of creative ways of exploring the plants, we hope that the zine will be full of drawings, paintings, essays, poetry, written word, collage, and other expressive insights about the plants we studied together. Each zine will only be published once and will be mailed to the participants as a community memoir and keepsake of their experience.

Vital Force, Chi, Yaya Guaturey, Hu, Ool; the many names of animating energy.
Description - There are many traditions that recognize the force that gives rise to breath and movement. Lara Pacheco will share the Taino perspective along with similar yet different patterns in other healing systems. She will also share plant allies that she specifically calls in when specifically working with this powerful, ubiquitous force of energy.
Plant Allies Here and There; Achiano + Guanajo and the Element of Fire
The beckoning cry of our ancestors has called us into this place of healing. In Boríken (Puerto Rico) our colonizer told us that the Taíno ways had been destroyed. And yet, here they are guiding the work to illuminate consciousness. This class will focus on the the unearthing of the many shackles of colonialism, and explore the journey of reconnecting with indigenous ways of knowing. We will spend our class time on sitting with the season of Summer and drawing from the Caribbean ancestors through plants, elements, food and animal guides. We will also discuss plants cultivated and native of the PNW, and how I've incorporated these into my practice to honor ancestors of this land and to connect to place.
Lara Pacheco is a Latinx mamita, clinical herbalist and community organizer who runs Seed and Thistle Apothecary. Seed and Thistle is a herbal company that provides educational programs for youth and adults, health consultations and a monthly herbal CSH through home and heart grown medicine. Lara also runs a full year apprenticeship program and is starting a pop up clinic, called the Seasonal Wellness Clinic, to address access to plant medicine and bodywork to her community in Cully of Portland, OR. When not working with the plants, Lara loves playing music, and spending time outdoors with her friends and family.

She grows and wildcrafts her own medicine with a focus on sustainable herbal remedies: those that grow easily in populated habitats, and those that can be harvested in the wild with minimal impact.
Missy’s path to herbalism began with labor solidarity, community organizing, and police accountability advocacy. She sees her herbal practice and teaching as another facet of working for social and environmental justice.
Missy will be teaching at the upcoming Breitenbush Herbal Conference in Breitenbush, OR from September 5 - 8, 2019.

Listen in with Selena Rowan as she interviews herbalist and peer support specialist Dawn Cohoe of Maple Twig Medicinals. They cover wide ranging ground exploring the concept of Peer Support, a non-hierarchical practice of giving and receiving help, most commonly applied to mental health and addictions recovery but with wide ranging applications, including herbal medicine. Peer support is based on a philosophy of respect, shared responsibility, and mutual agreement on what is helpful, with its goal to promote holistic healing and growth in the context of community.
Dawn and Selena touch in on the radical origins of the modern peer support movement in relationship to the mental health system and mental health recovery, personal stories relating to peer support, and breaking down the false dichotomy between "those who know" and "those who don't". Dawn reminds us that when working in any helping profession, whether that be when supporting those in mental health recovery or in any other situation, we as practitioners "need more vulnerability and less fragility."
To learn more, connect with Dawn at www.mapletwigmedicinals.com and Selena at ninesistersbotanicals.com and follow their pages on Facebook!

Meet Hope Najjar - a born and raised Californian with Chicana and Lebanese roots with incredible energy and clear vision. Hope is opening Night Hawk Art and Healing Collective in our tiny town of Laytonville, part of the Eel River watershed in rural inland Mendocino County of far northern California. The Night Hawk Collective has goals as lofty as its name sake, and hopes to serve as a community hub, empowering the community through sharing traditional methods of healing and promoting self-care.
This community is on a precipice after over 5 years of historic drought and water crises, concurrent with historic fires (including the Mendocino Complex, the largest fire in California history), ecological fracturing, threatened extinction of our local salmon and collapse of local fisheries, and severe and sudden economic decline due to the third economic boom and bust cycle in the region's history of extractive industries (in the past few decades we've experienced the collapse of the logging, fisheries, and cannabis production industries). Amidst all this, Hope is part of a generation of young folk here working hard to cultivate a community resilient enough to survive the current and future changes we face.
So listen with herbalist Selena Rowan of Nine Sisters Botanicals, and join the movement for sustainable, enthusiastic, loving, creative culture and community as we traverse through the unknown and unpredictable experience that is our current time.

Here’s an eight minute clip of the first class in the Natural Cardio Care online course with Guido Masé.
In this new 6-week online BotanicWise course, Natural Cardio Care: An Herbalist’s Perspective, Guido will guide us through the various components of self-evaluation for better cardiovascular health.
Guido has a talent for explaining complicated subjects in an interesting and understandable manner. He creates a bridge between the scientific community and the public, feeding both groups with practical information that can be used personally in the home, or with clients in a clinic.
Natural Cardio Care is designed to empower both individuals dealing with cardiovascular issues AND clinicians wanting to broaden their therapeutic options for clients.
Each week, in addition to core classes taught by Guido, a special guest speaker will be featured, sharing a unique perspective on how we can support our cardiovascular system naturally.
Joining the guest list is Christopher Hobbs, Kerry Smith, Tammi Sweet, Deb Soule and Kat Maier.
This course features live classes, with the option to watch replays until August 2019. Best of all you will walk away with your own customized natural heart care program that you will create through self-evaluations. If you are a practitioner these methods can be used to work with your clients.
Full disclosure: a portion of the proceeds from this class benefits my work and BotanicWise, an organization providing plant wisdom, connecting like-minded people and building a community to steward land, medicinal plants and supportive relationships with each other. I've taken plenty of classes with Guido at this point (along with some of the other speakers) and highly recommend this class.

CLASS DESCRIPTION
It can feel frightening and overwhelming to move from being an at-home herbalist to starting your practice. In this class, we'll explore possibilities in forming a business that meets your own unique needs and how to avoid the pitfalls of many startup practices. Understanding your goals as a person is the first step in launching your herbal practice. This class will be useful for those asking questions like “What kind of business do I want to create?” and “Is this business I created really serving my community and the life I want?”
Micah McLaughlin is a naturopathic practitioner specializing in the integration of the body and mind. Micah uses the traditional naturopathic tools of sclerology, muscle testing, holistic counseling, and facial/fingernail/tongue analysis to find the root of his clients’ health complaints. With an approach of curiosity and investigation Micah looks for the energetic and emotional blocks underlying symptoms, often requesting that these be “noticed” or “examined” by his clients. Herbs, flower essences, supplements, breath work, and energy work are used as Micah helps people connect to who they truly are. Through this process clients are able to shed their limiting beliefs and embodied patterns and find healing on a physical, emotional, and often spiritual level. Micah was trained at the Naturopathic Institute of Therapies and Education and founded Continuum Healing in 2008 and co-founded the Wellness Collective GR in 2015. He further studied Western Herbalism and the Enneagram, deepening his passion to treat the whole person. Micah has written and taught his Survival Herbalism course at various primitive skills schools throughout the country. Micah deeply believes in the healing ability of the body and inspires his clients through hope and empowerment.

CLASS DESCRIPTION:
Botanicals have an important role to play for the cancer patient. Their primary strength is helping to improve quality of life, lessen the chance of infection, and protect vital organs when taken alongside conventional treatment. But questions often arise: what are the potential interactions with modern treatment? What herbs have the best track record, and at what dose? What effects can herbs have in hormone-sensitive cancers? We will work through these questions and review current research to help highlight safe and effective use, and reinforce the idea that herbal medicine isn’t just helpful – it is an essential component of the cancer patient’s support plan.

It’s been about a year since we released this awesome episode on hawthorn with Heather Irvine, so I thought it’d be a good time to revive it.
CLICK HERE to read Heather’s original hawthorn monograph.
Heather will be presenting at the upcoming Breitenbush Herbal Conference this September! We hope to see you there.
"Hawthorn is one of those country herbs whose leading quality one might at first describe as benevolent. It is much more powerful though! A great tree, low and broad in stature, it occurs wild in edge-lands of landscapes or occasionally planted for beauty, especially with respect to its generous white blossoms or deep red fruit in the fall and winter. It serves food and sanctuary to wildlife. Overzealous thorns protect birds and smaller critters from those larger ones which receive a memorable gauge and at best a pause to lick one’s wounds! In and around a Hawthorn’s understory, clumsy human types get so focused on the prize… zeroing in on more flowers or more berries, faster, receiving a poke followed by a clumsier startled retraction. Birds and squirrels laugh at us for sure!" - Heather Irvine

It’s autumn! And that means it’s vata season. I thought it’d be fun to republish this timely episode with Amanda Stanley. This recording was episode 11 of the HerbRally podcast, so newer listeners may not have made it that far back in the archives.
Amanda is an Ayurvedic herbalist, yogi and reiki practitioner. I loved gaining new insight in this system of herbalism. She has a wonderful way of weaving the philosophy of Ayurveda with practical health practices we could all stand to implement more of in our daily lives.
I got a lot out of this episode and I know you'll come away inspired!
Thanks so much to Amanda for sharing her wealth of knowledge.

Adaptogens and nootropics have been claimed to do amazing things, but do you ever feel the claims made of herbs such as Ginseng and Rhodiola seem vague, too numerous and too good to be true? There is a reason for that. By definition, adaptogens have broad positive effects -- such as helping us withstand stress -- and are somewhat versatile in use. In this class we will go over some of the commonalities of adaptogens, including how they work, as well as differentiate many specific ones in terms of strengths, applications and energetics. From this you will be better able to articulate what an adaptogen is and what systems adaptogens work on. Tulsi, our Herbstalk plant-of-the-year, is an adaptogen, and we will touch on how it is different than many of the others.
This class was recorded at the wonderful annual event, Herbstalk, which takes place each June in Somerville, MA.
A big shout out and thanks to Steph and Henry, as well as all of the Herbstalk volunteers for organizing and hosting such a great event. For more information on Herbstalk as well as their two other events, just head to Herbstalk.org.

"Your skin is the largest organ of your body, and it is estimated that every day the average woman puts over 515 chemicals on it. I think that’s an understatement. The European Union has banned of 1300 chemicals from cosmetics, while the United States has only banned 11. This means that there are 1289 chemicals in the majority of our personal care products that have been deemed unsafe for all of the inhabitants of Europe. There are virtually no regulations on cosmetics, nor does every single ingredient need to be identified. The word “fragrance” on an ingredients list should send you running. It can mean ANYTHING…there’s no way to tell what that implies." - Caitlin Frazier

On today's episode I narrate Kiva Rose's wonderful Usnea Monograph.
This monograph is from the book, "The Plant Healer's Path" by Jesse Wolf and Kiva Rose Bell-Hardin.
"When the rains arrive in the Gila, the whole landscape deepens in color and space. It's as if the land, plants and all, takes a deep breath and fills itself out. Mushrooms pop up out of the forest floor, Morning Glory vines spiral upward and the annual Sages burst from seed to flower in the span of only a few weeks. The trees themselves seem to swell and darken with the moisture, and the lichens that live on them often quadruple in size before fruiting wide open. The Usnea is especially beautiful to watch, the delicate and usually dry threads expanding into soft, flexible tendrils that dangle from every Pine and many Junipers." - Kiva Rose

On today's episode Geraldine Lavin teaches us all about the blue vervain.
She wrote an excellent monograph on this invaluable plant ally, which you can find HERE.
"It is generally agreed upon in the herbal community that Blue Vervain is the herb for uptight, fanatical, type A personalities. Many herbs have specific organ affinities, whereas blue vervain seems to have more of specific mental state. Thomas Easley says blue vervain is for “tight-necked, over-achieving, list-makers, who can’t ask for help.” Matthew Wood adds that Blue Vervain is for “people who make lists…of other peoples faults.” He also notes that Blue Vervain people tend to be “strong above, weak below” meaning that they can be strong in words, weak in action - very intense and judgmental of others, often holding themselves and those close to them to almost unattainable standards." - Geraldine Lavin

Epigenomics is the study of epigenetic changes in gene expression that occur without commensurate changes in DNA base pair sequences; these changes may be transmissible to subsequent generations. Recent research in the emerging field of Epigenomics strongly supports the probabilities of therapeutic transgenerational herbalism. Epigenomics is developing in response to research showing very convincingly that many cancers are initiated and controlled by transmissible extrachromosomal mechanisms.

Hypertensive and cholesterol-lowering drugs are big business. Are they the best choice for a healthy heart? Probably not, given that there is an enormous range of herbal and food remedies that lower blood pressure far better, and faster, than drugs. Probably not, given that cholesterol has been demonized and drugs that affect it also interfere with muscle functioning. Instead, let's explore all the tasty, easy, effective herbal and life-style ways to keep our numbers--and our hearts--healthy.

If there was nothing to fix, cure or save…what would your relationship with plants look/feel like?
There are many approaches to the pathway of herbal practice. Today, we will explore an earth-centered approach to the intersection of plants, people and place. If we are to begin at the beginning, coming to understand the land upon which we live, the plants that have chosen this place as home and humans place in it is a place to start. Seeing place as source is to set out upon a life of discovery.
As you settle into place by developing relationships with the plants around you, you’ll begin sensing a vibration or resonance with place. When committed, on a daily basis, to bringing plants into your body that you have gathered, your awareness begins to extend into place.
Light takes on a whole new quality. You begin to see and feel how water affects all life around you. The moist fire of creation begins to make sense and a sense of connection begins developing. Tiny, invisible threads, mycelium-like in nature, begin weaving you into a web of creation. The Language of the Land starts taking root within your very being.
Health, wholeness, holiness becomes a way of life wherever you are. Tending the invisible, the hidden half of nature is a generative path. Join me on the dark side, where you’ll learn how plants turn sunlight into cookies and how minerals, plants and animals depend on this fantastic bubbling cauldron going on all the time to succeed.

Listen in on this class that Dan de Lion of Return to Nature (www.returntonature.us) taught at The Inner Warrior (www.theinnerwarriorlou.com). He explores three in depth topics which are very misunderstood and rarely discussed, but can help students of yoga learn the underlying philosophical principles bring deeper meaning to our practice.
In this talk, Dan draws upon these ancient traditions to help ground your current yoga practice to reestablish the ancient mantra “As above, and so below” which helps us to realize that our body and our energetic centers are a microcosm for studying the entire universe. These are the ancient teachings which help us to grow awareness toward the alchemical vessel that we are, and how to train to cleanse and purify the mind body spirit connection, so that we may find our optimal service.
Dan De Lion is a Forager, Herbalist, and Musician dedicated to working with Nature to further the healing of the planet and the soul. Dan teaches through Return to Nature (ReturntoNature.us), which provides classes in foraging and herbalism, making homemade remedies from herbs, fermentation and kombucha classes, and primitive and survival skills.

This class was recorded at the superb event: The Great Lakes Herb Faire.
If you've not been and you're in the region, I encourage you to try and make it to the 2018 shindig. Here's the details:
Great Lakes Herb Faire
September 7 - 9, 2018
Cedar Lake Outdoor Center,
2500 Pierce Rd, Chelsea, Michigan
"We have had three amazing Faires so far and are so looking forward to doing this again! The feedback we received from people who attended was overwhelmingly positive. People were excited to network and meet other herbalists in their communities, learn directly from teachers rather than relying on books, and walk the trails on the surrounding land meeting the herbs in person. There were many kids attending and we heard from parents and the kids themselves that they couldn’t wait to come back next year! There was amazing energy from everyone, the food was delicious and the marketplace was loaded with fantastic herbal creations." -Anna Fernandez
I had the great fortune of attending the 2017 Faire (as a representative for Mountain Rose Herbs) and I concur on all of that. And yes, the food was phenomenal!
If interested in purchasing recordings from the 2016 and 2017 Faires (for a great price) you can do so here>> RECORDINGS
Here's the description for the class from the website:
We will create a template that methodically takes the practitioner through the steps of a clinical visit. First we collect the information from the intake form and with the patient generate a plan to get to our therapeutic goals. We describe what is required to go from our beginning point (now) to our end point (therapeutic goal). The descriptions become action categories within body systems. We select herbs using a set of rules or selection criteria from lists (provided) and write them down. From the many herbs listed we will then organize and de-select by simple rules. Once pared down we check our formula to see that it will bring the patient to their desired goal. We do a little math and we have a prescription for health.

"This is a time of year when a lot of people are thinking of their health with diet in mind. Although it actually seems slightly unusual for a lot of herbalists to suggest herbs to support weight loss, our philosophy tends to be more holistic than that, and there is no magic remedy. Especially for this issue, it is a concern a lot of people care about.
In preparing to answer a client's follow up question, adding this issue to their list of health concerns, I questioned myself for being biased against speaking to this particular issue. Afterall, it is a leading health concern, motivator and does have something to do with overall health. As a response I decided to compile a few of the recommendations which I think are sound and overall health promoting" - Heather Irvine

On today's episode Heather Irvine teaches us all about the hawthorn tree.
She wrote an excellent monograph on hawthorn, which you can find HERE.
"Hawthorn is one of those country herbs whose leading quality one might at first describe as benevolent. It is much more powerful though! A great tree, low and broad in stature, it occurs wild in edge-lands of landscapes or occasionally planted for beauty, especially with respect to its generous white blossoms or deep red fruit in the fall and winter. It serves food and sanctuary to wildlife. Overzealous thorns protect birds and smaller critters from those larger ones which receive a memorable gauge and at best a pause to lick one’s wounds! In and around a Hawthorn’s understory, clumsy human types get so focused on the prize… zeroing in on more flowers or more berries, faster, receiving a poke followed by a clumsier startled retraction. Birds and squirrels laugh at us for sure!" - Heather Irvine

Hydrosols, also known as floral waters, are an age-old way of working with the very essence of a plant in medicine. The use of hydrosols as medicines dates back over 5000 years. Traditionally, each home had a still where plant distillates for medicine were made. Over time hydrosols fell out of favor as essential oils increased in popularity. However, these days the aromatic virtues of hydrosols are being rediscovered. In this class, we will go over the uses of plant distillates in the home, in medicine, in cooking, aromatherapy, cosmetics and in work with the soul. This class was recorded at the 2017 NorthWest Herb Symposium.

The Good Living Guide to Natural and Herbal Remedies
"This book was inspired by the urgent need to recognize the value of mother earth and the plants which she grows- both serving as our foods and also our medicines. We reach for what is familiar! That which we use daily -those very habits which we see our family repeating daily, is what we will likely repeat as adults; routines which we likely will pass along to our next generation. It is essential to remember the importance of clean soil, clean air and the accessibility of healing plants, both as our foods and as our medicines. This book is a small tool for the remembering of the value of our plants and how to apply herbs as medicines for common first aid. Contained inside are herbal medicine recipes for common health issues and non toxic, chemical free body care as well as instructions for preparing your own herbal medicines at home." - Katolen Yardley

Today's episode is from a webinar that herbalist Amanda Dilday recorded last month as an offering for #MeToo.
You can find the original webinar on her website Alchemilla.
Amanda also wrote a book called Flowers for a Girl: Plant Medicine and Sexual Trauma.
*This is not a protocol or a prescription. Rather, it is something of a memoir, a healing memoir, an herbal memoir, a story.
"*Well, friends. Here it is: last night's class on plant medicine and sexual trauma. Just send it out into the world, and pray for it to be blessed. Pray for protection and for healing. Pray for light and for truth.
I know there will be more classes. There was so much more to say--even about these plants, and there were so many more plants! Gentle, powerful support is all around us.
It's a simple beginning (and quickly put together), but yesterday, I knew in my very heart that I needed to quickly put some simple tools into people's hands. I had to begin.
Some plants from last night's class include violet, ghost pipe, marjoram, and blueberries--to name a few. <3" - Amanda Dilday
ABOUT AMANDA:
I am a wife, mother, writer, teacher, and student of the plants. My roots are in the Appalachian Mountains. My home rests at the foothills of the Blue Ridge.
Mountains are in my heart, and when hearth and home aren’t looking, I slip away and get lost in the woods. A lover of burdock and books, tinctures and teas, I am most at home under a blue sky with my bare feet rooted to the earth.
Adversity brought me to the plants. A walk through the valley of the shadow of death led me to green pastures, and every green herb. I began my herbal studies at Green Comfort School of Herbal Medicine in Virginia. My healing path has been pleasant and sweet, sprinkled all along the way with generous, green teachers.
Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and He has filled my hands to overflowing with green gifts. Gifts meant to be given to others.
Coming to know the plants has changed me profoundly--and blessed me beyond measure. My prayer is that the same will be true for you. May we see Him in all that is. May His life flow through us.
Blessings,
Amanda

Today’s episode is brought to you by the NorthWest Herb Symposium.
I had the pleasure of attending this wonderful event a few years ago and I gotta say it’s top notch. The location alone is worth the trip. It’s located at the Camp Casey Conference Center in beautiful Coupeville Washington.
Next year’s event, titled “Botanicals at the Beach” will be from August 23 – 26 2018.

It’s with none other than herbalist Natasha Clarke.
CLASS DESCRIPTION:
Tree medicine is an oft overlooked resource here in the Pacific Northwest but it was only 60 years ago that harvesting bark from the Cascara trees was a job that folks still remember doing to make some extra money. From the mighty Western Red Cedar and Black Cottonwood to the “weedy’ Red Alder, Cascara and the lesser known Dogwood and Madrona, the trees in this bio region offer a pillar of support for many ailments. As a practicing herbalist focused on using local herbs, tree medicine compromises about 40% of the medicine I use.
Of the trees that lend their medicine well on this land are Western Red Cedar, Red Alder, Black Cottonwood, Pacific Northwest Dogwood, Cascara, Hawthorn and Willow, and Wild Cherry to name just a few.
Trees have a long physical history with man and an even longer relationship. We have been bough in arms with these silent sentient beings and I find that the medicine is rooted in this relationship. It leads to a reaching down and anchoring of ourselves in land, an understanding of where we are to grow from on our healing paths with this land that is our home, whether we are new to place or here all our lives.
The tree’s that I will be discussing are all trees that I use regularly in my practice and we will be talking about their medicine while we make the medicine.

On today's episode I narrate Mel Kasting's devil's club monograph.
Here's a sampling from her monograph which you can find here: www.herbrally.com/monographs/devils-club
If we parse this striking plant’s latin name into three segments, we find ‘opolo’ meaning armored, ‘panax’ meaning heal-all, and ‘horridus’ meaning to stand on end, fiercely. So this plant literally means fiercely armored heal-all; an apt description.
The first time I saw Devil’s club, I was on a field trip with the Columbines School of Botanical Studies. We had been hiking along an incline and down below, in the moist bellows where two hills met, stood a large patch quietly looming over the smaller ground cover plants. I remember feeling awed by its prehistoric appearance. And a little timid, like I was about to meet someone I have looked up to for years. Talk about presence.

Today’s episode was recorded at the 2017 NorthWest Herb Symposium.
It’s with none other than David Hoffmann.
What can herbalism do as opposed to the hype? What actions are relevant, what tonics can support the various body systems. We will discuss acetylcholinesterase inhibitors from Sage to Huperzia. How do these herbs actually effect the aging body and mind.
David, a Fellow of Britain’s National Institute of Medical Herbalists, has been a clinical phytotherapist for more than twenty-five years.
He started his herbal practice in Wales, continuing at the Findhorn community in Scotland, and has been practicing in California since 1986.
A long time activist in the environmental and peace movements, he ran for parliament in Britain for the Green party in 1983. He is one of the founding members and a past president of the American Herbalists Guild and is on the advisory boards of the American Botanical Council and HerbalGram.
The author of seventeen books, including the highly regarded The Complete Illustrated Holistic Herbal, An Elders’ Herbal,Medical Herbalism and The Herbal Handbook, Hoffmann teaches phytotherapy throughout the English-speaking world and is currently a faculty member of the California School of Herbal Studies. He is also a visiting faculty member at Bastyr University, the California Institute of Integral Studies, the National College of Phytotherapy, and the Rocky Mountain School of Botanical Studies.
On today's episode I narrate jim mcdonald's wild cherry monograph.
Here's a sampling from his monograph which you can find here: www.herbrally.com/monographs/wild-cherry
When considering wild cherry, most will immediately think of its use in the address of coughs and colds; indeed, such a staple it was that when plant medicine was being replaced by chemical drugs "wild cherry" was retained as the flavor of cough syrups and drops, because, well... that's just what those things were supposed to taste like. The actual bark, though, does much more than provide flavor. Wild cherry is a respiratory relaxant/antispasmodic and, in varying degrees, an astringent tonic. A cooling sedative to lung tissue, it excels when heat and irritability undermine healthy expectoration.
Now, here's where I want to paint a little word picture that really sums up wild cherry's respiratory sphere of influence perfectly; that's really what all herb writers want to do when we write these things. But, darnit, Michael Moore did it so well I can't resist quoting him: "Chokecherry or wild cherry bark is a simple sedative for cardiopulmonary excitability. If your child is lying in bed, glowing a dull infrared and breathing rapidly with a dry cough, give him/her chokecherry. That hot, vibratile pulse of blood through the lungs can be counterproductive, not nourishing the membranes as well as needed and maybe even slowing the defensive responses to a viral infection. The hectic breathing can dry out mucous membranes and harden secretions, making them little more than dried blobs adhering to the bronchial membranes---difficult enough for an adult to expectorate, very difficult for a respiratory-impatient child to handle."
Yeah, Moore was awesome.

Today’s episode is with herbalist and author Ellen Evert Hopman.
She's going to teach us all about the Doctrine of Signatures. This class was taught at the 2017 New England Women’s Herbal Gathering in New Hampshire.
Learn an ancient plant classification system that was developed in a time before most people could read. Did the plant grow in sun or shade? In damp soil or in a dry area? The shape of a leaf, the color of a 9 flower, the taste of an herb were all guides to which body system or organ the plant was appropriate for.
Although you'll learn a lot in this episode, you should look into her book: Secret Medicines from Your Garden - Plants for Healing, Spirituality and Magic
She covers the Doctrine of Signatures along with a lot of other herbal and magical concepts.

Great Lakes Herb Faire
September 7 - 9, 2018
Cedar Lake Outdoor Center,
2500 Pierce Rd, Chelsea, Michigan
"We have had three amazing Faires so far and are so looking forward to doing this again! The feedback we received from people who attended was overwhelmingly positive. People were excited to network and meet other herbalists in their communities, learn directly from teachers rather than relying on books, and walk the trails on the surrounding land meeting the herbs in person. There were many kids attending and we heard from parents and the kids themselves that they couldn't wait to come back next year! There was amazing energy from everyone, the food was delicious and the marketplace was loaded with fantastic herbal creations." - Anna Fernandez
I had the great fortune of attending the 2017 Faire (as a representative for Mountain Rose Herbs) and I concur on all of that. And yes, the food was phenomenal!

I also ended up going on this epic plant walk with Betzy Bancroft!
Thanks to Anna and Betzy for letting me share it on the HerbRally podcast.
I hope y'all enjoy it! I think it's fun to listen to plant walks personally. Especially as we head into the winter. Takes me back to that beautiful September day in Michigan :)
Here's the description for the walk from the website:
Developing a deep understanding of a few common weeds helps us save the native and less common species for special needs. On this walk we’ll include discussion of the abundance or ecological concerns of the herbs we meet, in addition to the medicinal and edible uses. And probably spend a lot of time on a few common weeds . . . .

FOUNDATIONAL HERBALISM APPRENTICESHIP "15 years since I started on my own plant medicine journey, I'm in awe of the model the natural world provides us to become more "whole" humans. You can't ignore relationships in the natural world. Everything and everyone is connected. I often see people approach their herbalism studies with the intention of treating others. It's a noble plan. But I can say that knowing myself well and honoring self-care has been the key to my ability to work with others. That's why self-care and relationship is the essence of my Foundational Herbalism Apprenticeship. This apprenticeship is a very full, experiential 10 months." - Aline Potvin

On today's episode I narrate herbalist Krystal Thompson's monograph on Yarrow.
Here's a sampling from her monograph which you can find here: www.herbrally.com/monographs/yarrow
Medicinal Use: Perhaps most famously, yarrow is prized for its benefits to wounds or minor bleeding. Its mild antiseptic and anodyne properties coupled with its ability to coagulate blood and stop bleeding make it the perfect ally in this case. These properties also make it useful in cases of hemorrhoids, post-partum care, bruises, and mouth sores, as well as internal bleeding (4). Yarrow beautifully harmonizes blood circulation and can be beneficial in cases of stagnation such as vericose veins or fibroids, as well as cases of overstimulated blood flow, such as hypertension. It is sometimes considered a skin tonic and can be used in a very effective facial steam to improve complexion through circulation and cooling inflamed tissue. Yarrow can also be protective against topical sun and wind damage.
Yarrow prepared as tea is a wonderful ally in the face of tough colds. Its diaphoretic action makes it especially useful at the onset of fever or in cases of obstructed perspiration (1). Diaphoretic plants “move the circulation toward the surface of the body, helping to cool it off through sweating, and increasing the immunological activity on the “front lines” of the body’s battle against the cold” (6). For these same reasons it is a common plant accompaniment to sweat lodges and other types of therapeutic sweating where the “front lines” of the battlefield can be physical as well as spiritual. Yarrow opens pores and purifies the blood, a great combination for eruptive conditions such as measles, chickenpox, fevers, etc. In TCM, yarrow’s benefits here would be described as tonifying Qi or releasing to the exterior (5). No doubt related to these indications, yarrow also has a reputation for being generally beneficial to kidney disorders.
Yarrow has an additional affinity for the pancreas and the lungs. It can benefit “thick blood,” which occurs when liver or pancreatic function is compromised due to high insulin levels or low digestive enzymes (10). Here, the blood contains more fats and other dense compounds that struggle to move freely through the blood vessels. This causes overexertion on the heart and improper gas exchange within the lungs, which puts stress on the entire body. Yarrow stimulates pancreatic function and boosts blood flow to help avoid these instances, but can benefit the anxiety or insomnia that may follow if thick blood does set in.

"My strongest education with plants began in Big Sur, California. Living on an isolated mountain above the fog line I began to listen. I connected deeply with manzanita and madrone. Suddenly I was relearning and remembering how to communicate with and learn from animals, plants, rocks and other elements of the earth.
Today I am walking my path and purpose as a clinical herbalist. I am currently living in the small desert town of Joshua Tree, California. I want to respectfully acknowledge that this land is occupied native Cahuilla land." - Rachel Burgos

Thank you to Sam Thayer and Susan Leopold for sharing this!
Beyond, sustainable harvest, we look at the long-term future of our landscape, and the special role that plant gatherers have in maintaining its ecology and prosperity. We'll talk about the threats and historical changes to our ecosystems, and discuss strategies to work and grow past them. We can do more than just "reduce our impact"—we can be a positive force to create and maintain vibrant and diverse communities of native plants that are at once productive for us and a paradise for wildlife. Nurturing the land that nurtures us. The Driftless Area will be used as an example for ecological and management concepts that apply everywhere. We'll explore some traditional, mutually beneficial relationships between Native peoples and the plants that support them, and discuss practical techniques for implementing this kind of harmony on our own sacred gathering grounds.

"Liberation must come from within" -Sandra Cisneros
Today's episode we hear from herbalist Paris Iha. She focuses on herbal allies for, during and after abortion. She also discusses and dismantles perspectives around the distinction made between abortion and miscarriage and offers a little history lesson on the topic through an herbal lens.
Paris: A woman has already made her decision to have an abortion. Regardless of what that decision looks like, we are there to support her. She may be sister, client, friend; certainly she is maiden, mother and crone. And we are in solidarity with her.
Once someone has reached out and we have committed to being in their support sphere, we are with them through it.
(I use the words woman, she, etc. and sometimes gender neutral people get pregnant too, so being pronoun sensitive, but for purposes my personal connection to abortion story I often use woman or she)
A woman’s womb is potently aligned with the womb of the earth; Her sacred cycle is the earth’s sacred cycle.
"Herbs are a first choice medicine for many women’s health problems…I think herbs act in a particularly impressive way on women’s health because there is a natural affinity between women and the plant world. Plants spring from the heart of earth; they are nourished by the seasons and whims of Mother Nature. Beautiful, strong, and powerful, herbs are in sympathy with women’s spirit… Herbs can also be used to support and nourish the female system when a woman chooses to use allopathic medicine." - Rosemary Gladstar
Paris Rae Iha is a clinical herbalist intern and apprentice, wild-crafter, rock-climber, perennial adventurer, activist and artist.
Herbalism has been Paris’ chosen path now for over six years, weaving her passion for healing with just a touch of magic. She believes herbal wisdom to be the birthright of all peoples as it fulfills an intrinsic aspect of human nature—the connection to our wild-ish-ness and the formation of meaningful relationships.
Paris’ first encounters with plants as medicine came when she made a choice to shift her lifestyle to embrace lunar rhythms, thus living more closely with her innate cycles and with the earth as a gardener.
This inevitably gestated Paris into the sphere of the healing agency of plants where she discovered something she had been yearning for; a deeper sense of self through the community of plants, our planet, and of the people who tend to them.
In her practice, Paris seeks to guide her clients in formulating and supporting existing wellness goals, finding their allies, and fostering connection to their innate sense of healing.

Today's episode I'm talking about an upcoming event here in my hometown, Eugene, OR.
New Orleans based herbalist Jen Stovall is on a west coast teaching tour and she'll be making a stop here next Saturday, September 30th, 2017. She'll be teaching the six hour intensive "Tools for Working with Addiction". If you've ever wanted to study with her, this event is not to be missed!
REGISTER CLASS DESCRIPTION
Substance use and addiction are pervasive in our culture. As herbalists we need as many tools as possible to address the needs of clients struggling with these issues. This daylong class offers you three practical tools you can use when treating substance use and addiction: herbs, supplements, & ear beads.
In this class, we will explore ways to provide support to clients who want to quit, as well as those who choose to keep using, review the way specific drugs affect certain body systems, and explore how herbs can mitigate these patterns of imbalance. We will focus primarily on the effects and treatment of opiates, alcohol, pharmaceutical sedatives and pain reliever use but will also touch on stimulants. You’ll learn about the history and benefits of the NADA Ear Acupuncture Detoxification Protocol as well as how to use ear beads to stimulate one of the points in lieu of acupuncture needles.
Throughout the class, you’ll be introduced to the basic concepts of harm reduction and trauma informed care as we consider how these models can improve our quality of care. Used together these modalities provide a powerful approach that may be used to support your clients, friends, family, and wider community when addiction is a factor in restoring balance.

Today's episode we hear from Erika Galentin MNIMH, RH (AHG) of Sovereignty Herbs in Athens, Ohio speaking on Demystifying Herb-Drug Interactions.
Many people get very frightened when they think about herbs and drugs interacting with each other. Some even may feel defensive about the idea that pharmaceutical medicine so easily puts herbs in the hot-seat. In this episode you will be introduced to the means by which herbs and drugs may interact with each other, for better or for worse.
You will also learn skills for easier interpretation of scientific research behind these interactions. Also, just a heads up, this episode does contain a bit of colorful language. It's nothing too crazy, though. You've been forewarned!
If you'd like to obtain Erika's slide for her presentation you can contact her directly at office@sovereigntyherbs.com.
I had the pleasure of attending this class at the 2017 Chesapeake Herb Gathering. I recorded it on my phone so the audio quality isn't 100%. That said, it was such an amazing class packed full of important info Erika and I were both really excited to share it with the community.
If you're on the east coast and looking for a great annual herbal event you gots to check this one out! Molly Meehan of Centro Ashé and her team throw a heck of a gathering.
Show Erika and Sovereignty Herbs some love on the socials!
Erika's clinical education, experience, and knowledge are based in both science and tradition. Much of her herbal and clinical rationale is derived from the past and present Physiomedical philosophy, with utmost faith placed upon vix medicatrix naturae, or the healing power of nature. She sees the human body as possessing a vital integrity and intelligence with inherent integrative, reconstructive, and resistive, tendencies. She does not see it as a broken-down machine, lacking the savvy for self-repair; given the right set of circumstances, the right nutriment and encouragement, the human body, your body, is capable of amazing things.

On today's episode I narrate herbalist Ruthie Hayes monograph on Tulsi (AKA holy basil).
Here's a sampling from her monograph which you can find here: www.herbrally.com/monographs/tulsi-rh
Herblore + Tradition: Tulsi is native to India and has been used in Ayurvedic medicine for well over 5,000 years. It is the most sacred of plants in Hinduism, essential in the ritual worship of Vishnu and Krishna. Tulsi is believed to be the earthly incarnation of the Divine Mother, Tulasi, and the doorway between heaven and earth. A tea of the leaves is often given to the dying to guide their soul from this world to the next. The wood of the tulsi plant is used in the making of mala beads which are used in meditation and prayer. Traditionally, the mala consists of 108 beads, one for each time the mantra or name of the deity is prayed or chanted. In sacred places, tulsi can be seen growing in its own altar where offerings and prayers can be made to the plant.
There are strict rules for harvesting tulsi leaves, and forgiveness from the plant must be asked first. The powder of the root in milk, ghee, or as a decoction was a treatment for malarial fever, bug bites, and to increase sexual stamina. It has also been used traditionally to remedy the cognitive effects of excessive cannabis use. The seeds mixed with water, juice, or milk was a traditional remedy for low energy and stomach/digestive problems. Tulsi is also a popular herb in Thai cooking. It’s used as a potherb, in making cheeses, liqueurs, in salads, rice, jellies, and a sherbert is often prepared from an infusion of the leaves.
