25 Herbs for Renewal & Vitality
Today’s episode is about renewal, and how herbs can support your body as we move from winter’s stillness into the energy of spring. We’ll discuss how spring affects our bodies energetically and physically, how traditions like Traditional Chinese Medicine and Ayurveda view this season, and, of course, which herbs can help you align with the season of growth, clarity, and movement.
