Herbs are not just “natural alternatives”, they each have a ‘personality’

Some are warming and moving.
Some are cooling and nourishing.
Some are grounding.
Some are clearing.
Some work gently on digestion, while others influence stress, inflammation, metabolism, mood, skin, hormones or the nervous system.

That is why herbal medicine is not as simple as “Take this herb for this symptom.”

In naturopathy, we ask deeper questions:

- What is the pattern underneath the symptom?
- Is the body depleted, inflamed, tense, dry, stagnant, overwhelmed or undernourished?
- What does the person’s digestion, stress response, sleep, cycle, pathology, constitution and medication history tell us?

Ayurvedic herbs like Tulsi, Saffron, Ashwagandha, Gotu Kola, Shatavari, Cinnamon, Fennel, Licorice and Turmeric are beautiful examples of how traditional wisdom and modern research can meet.

Each herb has its own traditional character, emerging research focus and naturopathic pattern it may suit.

Because the goal is not just to suppress a symptom.
The goal is to understand the person.

POV: you leave your supplement deliveries sitting on the table for a week because you’re “too busy”… then randomly decide to open them at night like they’re birthday presents 😭📦🌿

Chaotic ASMR naturopathy unboxing featuring:
✨ Fe-Max Iron tonic from .vital.ly
✨ NeurAlert from .vital.ly
✨ Orthoplex MagCalm from
✨ and my own personalised herbal tincture formula made through student practitioner prescribing available at 🫶🏼🌱

The bottle clinking and dragging on the table, passive aggressive wrapping paper scrunching, tasting them and arranging them on the shelves to build a routine is genuinely therapeutic 😌

Tiny moments of joy for the overstimulated naturopathy student brain 🤎

Oh I just needed some nervous system regulation:

- Play time (quite literally), bringing out that childlike excitement for life
- Home Pilates + Dance workouts!
- Teenage levels of K-pop fangirling (and bringing my brother onboard)
- Vibing to songs, expressing and actually listening it to the end
- NAC + Acetyl L-Carnitine + Magnesium Supplements
- Regularly sunlight to regulate circadian rhythms
- Cooking whole foods in new “appetising” ways
- Iron everyday and everywhere we go!
- Breathing deeply and mindfully
- Pausing and processing someone’s words and holding space
- Holding space for one’s “shadow” self and thoughts and then transmuting them for ongoing evolution
- Taking notes for new subjects more slowly allowing concepts to unravel and integrate into memory naturally
- Doing less “to-do” things in a day
- Taking those power naps when needed
- Not multitasking

A little client progress reflection 🌻

One of the biggest things clinic keeps teaching me is that good outcomes usually do not come from one single product or one perfect prescription.

They come from the combination of:
• good clinical reasoning
• a realistic treatment plan
• regular follow-ups
• client compliance and readiness to make change

This case was a lovely reminder of how much can shift in about 6 weeks when the plan is appropriate and the client is genuinely engaged in the process.

The prescription changed as the case changed.
Because that is what follow-ups are for.

You reassess, refine, and support the next stage of healing.

Healing is rarely passive. It is collaborative. ✨

“मौसम के हिसाब से खाओ।”
What’s interesting is how closely this aligns with how the body adapts through the year.
In cooler months (like autumn/winter), the body naturally shifts toward stronger appetite, slower metabolism, and increased immune demand.

This is where seasonal foods like:
• Citrus fruits (oranges, amla) → rich in vitamin C and flavonoids that support immune response during flu season
• Root vegetables (sweet potato, carrots) → provide complex carbohydrates and beta-carotene for gut lining and immune resilience
• Warming spices (ginger, turmeric) → support circulation, digestion, and inflammatory balance
Even cravings start to make more sense —
your body often asks for what it physiologically needs to adapt.

Seasonal eating isn’t just tradition, it’s working with your biology instead of against it.

Do you notice your food preferences change with the weather?

Because apparently we can’t just stop at the symptom — we have to find the underlying mechanism 👀

“चिंता चिता समान।”

A powerful reminder often heard growing up —
that constant worry doesn’t just stay in the mind, it slowly consumes your energy, your peace, and your presence.

Some forms of exhaustion don’t come from doing too much, but from thinking too much.
And sometimes, the most important shift is not doing more — but learning to soften, pause, and let go.

Sometimes traditional wisdom says in one line what we spend paragraphs trying to explain.

You can’t show up fully for work, prayer, focus, or life when you are running on empty.

It’s a reminder that nourishment is not a luxury.

It is a foundation.
