Healing The Body & The Mind From The Root Cause with Brooke Aichroth

This episode finds me in conversation with Brooke Aichroth, an herbalist and healer right down the road from us, here on Mt. Hood. Although not at the same time, Brooke & I share some education history with Vital Ways Institute (formerly Portland School of Traditional Western Herbalism. We share a love of the neverending nature of herbal education, that there is always more to learn. We talk about some of our favorite shared educators, plant friends (such as lemon balm & gotu kola), and resources. You can access Brooke’s services as a Reiki master, intuitive guide, herbalist, & holistic health coach on her White River Healings site. Her herbal products are available in- person at the Mt. Hood Farmers Market in Sandy, OR, but if you aren’t in the area (or season), check out her Etsy shop Soul Sister Earth Medicine.
