Everything I am reading keeps pointing to the same things - rest, sunshine, lower stress, foods as natural and wholesome as possible, movement, commmunity, hydration. I can see how herbs are meant to come in as support rather than "fixing" something that is foundationally askew from lifestyle (whether by choice or not ;) ).
Thank you for this beautifully written post, Adrienne. While, as you know, I have been taking herbs and supplements for many years, as part of my routine, you give me a reminder here that it is the whole system that must be at work for true health. This is an extremely well balanced field that you have created.

Very true. Sometimes we don’t know what we don’t know… And we can’t make is stop being winter so we can enjoy more sunshine! (wish we could!)

Thank you Amba. It’s not just what we take, it’s also what we do thats important. :)
Yes they work!
100%... and they work even better if everything else we do doesn't work against the herbs.
