The Untamed Herbalist

The Untamed Herbalist Certified nervous system and trauma coach, herbalist and public speaker Hi, my name is Amrit-Sadhana. The nervous system is the motherboard to the body.

I am a certified trauma informed nervous system coach and herbalist. I teach people how to heal their nervous system and self regulate so that anxiety is no longer the running voice in their life. Anxiety is the body's natural response to stress and danger. Learning how to see regulate helps you to feel safe in your body and determine the difference between actual present danger and something that feels similar to a danger in the past. Life experiences and extended periods of trauma and stress can take is outside of our "window of tolerance" and we are no longer able to self regulate. I teach you how to do this through evidence-base dead trauma informed modalities, herbalism, mindfulness, etc so you can feel in control of and safe in your own body. If this speaks to you, schedule a discovery call through my website. I can't wait to work with you.

She has and continues to be my greatest teacher.

You can only run from grief for so long and it shows up when it’s ready, not when you are. 💚

And this is why we go to therapy. Healing isn’t easy. It’s facing the things you don’t want to face. It’s taking accountability for your own healing, your actions, your reactions. It’s looking at where we may be participating with our own suffering. It’s where we tend to your inner child and sometimes it is hearing the hard truths from your therapist that you’re avoiding. It’s messy, it’s ugly, it’s lonely and it is worth it. 💚

One of the best decisions I’ve ever made. For my mental health, for my healing and recovery. A literal life saver. Who would have known that having another little critter would be so healing for my inner child and my nervous system.

This whole narrative that going no contact is a “trend” is not just harmful but incredibly ignorant.

If that is the narrative you want to participate with, maybe ask yourself what a parent would need to do for a child to not just want (because let’s be honest, it’s never been a want) but need to be no contact.

Maybe one day I will write it all down in a book but until then when someone tells you they are estranged or no contact with a parent or family, just trust. Trust that there is a whole story before that happened. Trust that it never happens in a vacuum, trust survivors.

He may be the most consistent man in my life 🤷🏼‍♀️

Is there nuance to this? Always! Are there some ways of seeking dopamine that are better for us long term than others? Sure and also, our nervous systems were never intended too hold so much of the things we are holding. It’s a lot and so if you’re noticing yourself gravitating towards “dopamine seeking,” a. There is literally nothing wrong with it, it’s humans. B. It’s just letting you know you need a little joy, a little glimmer a little moment. Our nervous systems needs those moments to thrive 💚

Like why would you do that?!

Do you know the real history of this day? It wasn’t just “pilgrims and Indigenous people sharing a meal.” It was a massacre. Growing up I was taught a fairytale… a lie. This day is not rooted in gratitude and community. It is rooted in violence and colon!alism and as I have continued my journey I no longer participate in the same way. I gather with my chosen family, I eat good food and I take time to continue to educate myself and honor the lives that have been lost and harmed. For some this is not a day of celebration but a day of mourning.

Something that often gets lost these days is nuance, it is a national holiday, it’s hard not to be involved in some way but maybe there is a way it can be done that doesn’t live on lies and delusion and still makes space for celebrating gratitude and community.

I will be leading a National Day Of Mourning tomorrow with the .and.cptsd community hub. A moment for us to connect, learn the real history, honor the stories and understand what this day really means. What it really stands for.

Grateful for it 💚

The birds really helped set the tone

Our Story

Amrit-Sadhana’s path to wellness started from a young age. She was raised in a yogic home where early mornings, meditation and cold showers were a part of her every day life. She went on to live her life, received her BA in Voice Performance from the University of Oregon and moved to Los Angeles. It was there that she worked for a holistic chiropractor and her passion for health and wellness was relit. She has found that no matter how much trauma you survive, how depressed or anxious you are, or how hopeless you feel, you can heal and live in joy in your body, mind and spirit. You can conquer all the fears and programming that is holding you back and follow your deepest dreams. It was her experience in changing her relationship with her own anxiety that she realized she could help others to do so. She uses her lifelong experience with yoga and meditation and her deep knowledge of food and nutrition to give you a grounded base in which to work from. She’s committed to a career in helping others heal, fall in love with themselves and live their absolute best lives. Amrit-Sadhana attended the Institute for Integrative Nutrition and here we are. She is a passionate, compassionate and supportive coach who is here to help you find peace and joy in your life. For more information and to schedule a session, please visit www.bodyblisslife.com
