We are so excited to have you join us as we begin this new journey in the world of podcasts!
On our first episode of What’s the Tea?, get to know Jesse and I as we introduce ourselves and our intentions for this podcast and dive into the herbs we intentionally chose for our tea and why, including some of the benefits we have experienced personally from using these herbs and other practices that can help move through fast paced, changing times with ease and grace. If you’re interested in slow, heart-centered, ritualistic living and connecting back to the Earth, yourself and all that surrounds us, yoga, astrology, mindful practices, health & wellness and more, What's the Tea? is the place for you!
Jesse’s experience and background with herbalism, health, yoga, anatomy, movement medicine and more has led her to sharing her passions through her business, Rooted Spirit, where she offers herbal medicines, teachings, holistic coaching and more. She shares about her connection to the natural world and herbalism stemming from her Indigenous roots while threading in the teachings of alchemical and energetic herbalism and heart centered living.
I began studying nutrition, which then led me to a more holistic way of living, turning inward and working with my mental health and heart-centered living guided by Earth based spirituality and communion with the plants and the land around us. I incorporate many angles of holistic health and well-being, spirituality and mindful practices into my business, Barefood&Barefoot, such as yoga, breathwork, meditation, nutrition, plant medicine, energetics of plants and more.
In this episode we touch on some of the benefits and uses of Nettle, Cleaver, Tulsi, Damiana, Linden flower, Linger, Lemon balm, Hawthorn and more for moving through difficult or challenging times in our fast-paced world when it seems nearly impossible to slow down, ground and have space to relax and care for ourselves. We discuss how plants work on our physical body but also on a deeper energetic level and the subtle, yet powerful ways they can transform our lives.
Jesse also wanted to mention she mispronounced an Indigenous tribe in Connecticut and wanted to humbly correct herself & give the tribe the proper recognition, the proper pronunciation of the Paugussett tribe is 'Pug-us-setts'
