The episode - Ancient Herbs for Modern Wisdom - has been released on Spotify and Apple podcasts.
In it, we talk about:
- Decoding the 7 key tastes of herbs and what cascade of events they trigger in our bodies (whether we're consciously aware of it or not!)
- The reality of tuning into the rest of nature and the seasons whilst living hectic lives
- Some of my top tips for starting to explore and integrate herbalism into your life even if you don't have tonnes of time or resources
- How to cut through the overwhelm of working with herbs to support your health
- And I reveal a little-known secret about my gardening skills!
Open to Alchemy is an absolute treasure of a podcast with conversations I personally enjoy listening to that feel like you're having a brilliant cuppa and a really interesting chat through lots of fascinating nooks and crannies of spirituality, the complex and changing world we live in, and - as the host Lauren Ivy says - 'part woo, part work'. Lauren's based in the US, but you can follow her insights and offerings at @open.to.alchemy on Instagram. If you enjoy the episode, please do support her by giving her podcast 5 stars on Spotify or leave her a lovely review on Apple podcasts, and be sure to follow if you want to hear more of her conversations with fascinating people.
I do hope our conversation sparks new questions and areas of exploration for you!
