Erin received her Naturopathic Doctor degree from Bastyr University in 2001, and remains true to the primary principles of naturopathic medicine – the healing power of nature, treating the whole person, and doctor as teacher. Dr. Erin Stokes realized her passion and skill for education early in her career.  Shortly after launching her naturopathic practice in Boulder, Colorado, she became an instructor at Southwest Acupuncture College.  She also worked as a Lead Practitioner at Pharmaca Integrative Pharmacy providing one-on-one integrative health consultations. Through her different roles as Director of Education and Medical Director over the last 13 years, Dr. Erin has emerged as a media spokesperson, with a unique ability to translate technical knowledge, combined with an engaging personal style. As Medical Director at WishGarden,  Dr. Erin Stokes is energized about finding new and effective ways to help share the power of herbalism to improve people's lives and is a frequent podcast and TV guest.

That's why I love working with herbal allies that support the nervous system, immune system, and sleep naturally, instead of forcing or overriding the body. These three legendary blends from WishGarden Herbs are ones I personally trust and come back to again and again: Deep Stress Daily Calm is my go-to when life feels relentless. Chronic stress impacts hormones, immunity, energy, and mood — not just mentally, but physically. This blend features ashwagandha and nourishing nervine herbs that help calm the stress response both in the moment and over time. It supports healthier cortisol patterns, steadier energy, improved sleep quality, and a more balanced mood — helping the body shift out of constant high gear and back into regulation. When stress shows up as a racing mind at night, Sleepy Nights & Fresh Mornings is such a gentle yet powerful support. I love that it's formulated without melatonin, valerian, or kava, so it supports natural sleep rhythms without dependency or morning grogginess. Whether taken before bed or during unwanted night wakings, it helps calm the mind so the body can settle into deeper, more restorative sleep. And when you start to feel that familiar "something's coming on" feeling, Kick-Ass Immune Activator is what I reach for. This fast-acting blend supports immune and respiratory health right when the body needs it most — helping you respond early instead of waiting until you're already depleted. Because supporting your immune system proactively makes a massive difference. What I love most about WishGarden Herbs is that their formulas are USDA Certified Organic, non-GMO, gluten-free, vegan, and crafted to work with the body's innate intelligence. These aren't quick fixes — they're true herbal allies. Discover the natural power of WishGarden Herbs' legendary blends and save 20% on your order with code NOSUGARCOATING.
