Amina Eastham Hillier - Why Liquid Herbs Deserve a Place in Every Dispensary

In this episode, we’re joined by naturopath Amina Eastham-Hillier for a deep dive into the art and science of liquid herbal blending. Amina shares her insights on the unique benefits of prescribing liquid herbal extracts in clinical practice, from tailoring formulations to individual patients and flexible dosing, to capturing the full energetic and synergistic essence of a formula.   We also explore the world of herbal energetics—how qualities such as warmth, cooling, moisture, and dryness influence herbal selection and treatment outcomes. Amina highlights some of her favourite herbs, offering practical examples of how their energetic profiles can guide clinical decision-making and enhance patient care.   Bio: With over 25 years of naturopathic practice, Amina successfully treats complex chronic illnesses in her clinic in the Noosa hinterland.
