Understanding Nutrition is difficult and we are flooded with contradiction in marketing. Nutrition is not about buying products. You can spend a lot of money on nutrient-dense products and not be absorbing those nutrients.

Foundational Nutrition is understanding how your body works with the macro and micronutrients needed for you to thrive. Shana Grover has been teaching nutrition for over 15 years and has received great feedback on how basic changes in perspective and understanding can create long term change in the quality of life.

Listen in as herbalist and author Rosalee de la Forêt talks all about the hops (Humulus lupulus)!

Before trendy bars started highlighting their hoppy brews, the hop plant was used as a traditional herbal medicine. With their aromatic and pungent scent, hops strobiles have been prized for their ability to help people relax. This use dates back thousands of years, at least since the ninth century.

"There are many sacred, sexy, and fun uses for hibiscus, not even necessarily to be used at the same time." - Heather Irvine

Listen in as herbalist Dana Aronson talks all about the beautiful motherwort!

Motherwort's latin name, Leonurus cardiaca, is depicted from the Greek word leon (lion), ouros (tail), and cardiaca, giving meaning to the heart. This sheds light to the common name, Lion's Heart. In Europe, the name "motherwort," has a literal meaning of "mother-herb." With both of these names, this gives a small peek into the medical properties of this plant we know as Motherwort.

Check out Dana's motherwort monograph!
