10/27/23 • 58 min
The taste of herbs tells us a lot about the actions of the plant. Brighid Doherty and Meghan Rhodes talk about this and other interesting topics about herbalism.
Meghan Rhodes is a qualified herbalist who has helped over 80 people start living herbalism, making healthier, safer solutions for themselves and their families a reality. As the founder of Rhodes Roots & Remedies, she has written 10 course books, authored the books Easy Herbal Remedies for Infants and Slow-Infused Self-Care, as well as developed a unique four season sense-based herbalism course and journey, Awaken Herbal Wisdom.
Meghan’s practice of herbalism is rooted in the belief that we must remember, reclaim and relearn our knowledge of our bodies, our autonomy and how to work with plant medicine in order to bring control of our own health back into our families and homes for a sustainable future for ourselves and the planet.
Meghan is a member of both the College of Practitioners of Phytotherapy and the Ayurvedic Professionals Association.
