Herbalism: A Lifestyle of Healing

Can a single cup of tea shift your entire day? In one of her favorite episodes ever, Ginny sits down with herbalist and author Rachelle Robinett to explore the ancient, globally practiced art of herbalism—and why it might be exactly what our stressed-out, fast-paced culture needs. Rachelle’s book, Naturally: The Herbalist’s Guide to Health and Transformation, offers both a gentle invitation and a practical guide for weaving herbs into everyday life. From nervines and adaptogens to bitters and mushrooms, you’ll learn how plants can support sleep, digestion, resilience, clarity, emotional balance, and so much more.

This episode demystifies herbalism and proves that you don’t need a homestead or decades of knowledge to start—you just need a teapot and a few minutes. Ginny shares how reading Naturally finally helped her fall in love with herbal tea (after years of resisting it!) and realize that she was already an herbalist all along. Whether you’re navigating burnout, anxiety, or the desire to reconnect with nature and yourself, this conversation will leave you feeling empowered, expanded, and inspired to take one small step toward well-being.
