Here's one for all the busy parents who want to start weaving herbalism into their homes and lives - my recent interview with Andrea Claassen of the Peaceful Power Podcast.
This episode - Connecting with Your Unique Herbal Wisdom - has been released on Spotify and Apple podcasts.
In it, we talk about:
- Herbalism, Ayurveda and where the two meet
- Where and how to get started learning medicinal herbs (especially if you're short on time!)
- Some of the tastes of herbs that give you access to understanding a broad range of medicinal herbs without having to rely on lots of reference books
- How to get your children involved in learning herbalism
Andrea is an absolute gem of an Ayurvedic practitioner. I love how she focuses all that ancient wisdom and translates it into ways modern mums can tap into those thousands of years of knowledge for their own health and the health of their families. (And she's an Ayurvedic postpartum doula! Brilliant!) The Peaceful Power Podcast is a great resource if you're wanting to explore more Ayurvedic concepts and where they crossover into other practices, which I know you will all love, as my own approach to herbalism is largely influenced by Ayurveda. Andrea is based in the US, but she has a wealth of digital resources on her website that are definitely worth checking out!
If you enjoy the episode, please do support Andrea 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 about Ayurveda, yoga and fascinating crossover topics. You can also find her on Instagram at @seasonalandrea.
So settle in or download for the drive and get ready for a great conversation!
