Danielle reminds us that the intuitive practices our bodies need have become unconventional methods, due to marketing noise and diet fads.

Herbal Support for Immune Health

This episode kicks off the month of November and our immunity talk. Coincidentally I am recording with a head cold, so apologies for the quality. Immune support is not just selecting immune modulating herbs. There are so many herbs with so many ways they can be incorporated depending on how they are prepared, there is always an herb for someone but herbs are not a 1 size fits all. This is why energetics knowledge and working with a trained herbalist is important for proper support. Remember, Herbalist work in tandem with doctors and other health care providers as part of your wellness team!
