Herbal medicine is NOT Alternative medicine, it is TRADITIONAL medicine..

Herbalism goes wayyyy back. Traditional herbal methods are firmly ingrained in every culture on earth. Then why is it known as alternative medicine? THINK about this for a second...⚠️

For as long as humans have existed, the use of herbal medicine was at the forefront of our healing. Did you know conventional medicine has only been around since the 1800’s? This makes modern medicine, the alternative in our humble opinion!

Don’t get us wrong, there is a time and place for everything, and when emergency interventions are required, modern medicine is great.
It clearly has its role in society, and we don’t completely reject it, but why has it become so “normal” to utilize symptom-masking medications and short-cuts as the first line of treatment rather than addressing the underlying cause of the condition? When did people start to forget about real healing? This was NOT how our ancestors lived, and it is not the path of the future, regardless of how much the modern medicine industry pushes.

Despite the fact that the general population is sicker, more exhausted, and more depressed than ever before, modern medicine is still regarded as the best option, while herbalists, naturopaths, and other holistic practitioners are dismissed as “non-qualified.” 🙄

Did you know that most western modern medical practitioners continue to entirely ignore diet and lifestyle because they believe it has no connection to health? This couldn’t be any further from the truth.

The GOOD NEWS is that we are knowledgeable of the intelligence of plants and the perseverance of the human body.

We don’t need or want the toxic fear culture to convince us if returning to the “old” ways is good or bad.

The traditional ways of healing holds wisdom like no other…and we choose to align with that.
