Description
We have been healers throughout history. Groups of women gathered together to heal each other and heal their community with plants and foods. We all need to go back to that place of trusting ourselves.
This week on the show we interviewed herbalist, Amy McKelvey. Amy told us how she got into herbalism, as well as a pretty interesting history of herbs. She also addresses the importance of plants and our connection to the world around us to achieve healing. In this jam-packed 90 minutes, we covered everything from whether or not you can overdo supplements, to maximizing benefits of the supplements, to how to energize your life! You will learn a TON listening to this show! Originally aired May 2018.
