143: Healing Trauma with Dao and Herbs: Daisy Kaye Devine on Sacred Herbalism
You'll never get over your trauma with talking unless you also heal the nervous system and get more connected to self, community and earth. Plants and embodiment can help you feel safe in your body again.
In this episode of Sacred Herbalism, Stephanie Hazel sits down with Daisy K. Devine to unravel the intimate ties between trauma, the nervous system, and herbal medicine. They reveal how trauma is stored and released through the body, why the gut—our “second brain”—is vital to healing, and how deep community connection fuels recovery. With insights from Taoist philosophy and decades of herbal wisdom, Daisy highlights the healing power of passionflower and reishi, inviting listeners to see nature as a sanctuary for emotional restoration.
Key Takeaways:
Trauma releases only through the body, not just the mind.
Healing thrives on loving presence and community.
Nervous and digestive systems work together in trauma recovery.
Herbs like passionflower and reishi help regulate the nervous system and support the gut.
Nature offers safety and a path to emotional integration.
