Ask Rachel: Ancestors, Herbalism, and Finding Belonging in the Now

Welcome back to From the Heart, where today we have a segment of Ask Rachel. In this episode, Rachel takes questions on ways to connect to our ancestral past, where to start when it comes to herbalism, and how to release the fears and anxieties we may feel about good things ending. It is a beautiful array of questions where no two relate, but all are just as important.

If you are expecting (or plan to be soon), this episode will give you actionable advice.
