HERBALIST JOURNEY

I so often get asked how my path lead me to herbalism. I think it started well before I can pinpoint an exact moment. Perhaps the nature walks my mother took my brother and I on as kids, maybe collecting flowers selling bouquets around the neighborhood with my best friend. maybe sitting in the woods feeling a sense of immense freedom.

The moment I consciously started to integrate it into my skincare practice came in 2012 when I took an herbal class making teas at a community space in Somerville. In that moment I felt something deeper. A deeper connection to myself, to my community, to my skincare practice, to the world.

I’m grateful to everyone that I’ve met on this flowery path. I continue to learn each and every day. Plants are the teachers, they communicate to each other and through us.
