In this episode, I talk with Dr. Martha Libster, nurse herbalist, historian, and author of Gentle Medicine for Balance in Body and Peace of Mind, about integrating holistic health, traditional medicine, and the power of plants in promoting mental and physical wellbeing.
We discuss:
- The balance between modern healthcare and traditional healing methods.
- How patterns in nature and Traditional Chinese Medicine can help us manage stress, depression, and anxiety.
- The importance of learning from plants as partners for holistic self-care and mental health.
Challenge: At [1:07:15], Dr. Libster challenges us to explore the healing potential of the plants outside our backdoor. She also shares the safe place meditation, a tool for cultivating inner peace and balance.
