Herbs with Rosalee
Rosalee de la Forêt
Curious about the healing nature of plants? You're in the right place. I’m Rosalee de la Forêt and I'm passionate about helping people discover the world of herbalism and natural health. On this podcast, we explore the many ways plants heal, as food, as medicine, and through nature connection. Each week, I focus on a single seasonal plant and share trusted herbal knowledge so that you can get the best results when using herbs for your health. My goal is that you’ll walk away from each episode feeling empowered, knowledgeable, and inspired to start working with herbs in your everyday life. Sometimes you’ll sit down with just me and other times I may have special guests join the conversation. We’ll hear what their favorite herb and recipe is for the season. All you have to do right now is make sure you’re subscribed to this podcast in your favorite podcast player so you don’t miss a thing.

Listen to the last episode:
It’s easy to love the taste of thyme in stews and roasts and sauces, but have you taken the time to really taste thyme? When you have really good quality thyme, it’s highly aromatic and very spicy and hot!
Tasting an herb and experiencing how it feels in your body when you take it as food and medicine is at the heart of herbal energetics. This system is a great way to really get to know the plants you’re working with, and to choose the herbs that are best suited to your unique body and conditions. In this episode I’ll walk you through the energetics of thyme (and why they matter!), and how you can use this system to choose the best herbs for you.
By the end of this episode, you’ll know:
► Why tasting herbs is such a powerful tool for assessing their quality, potency, and herbal actions
► The particular respiratory conditions that thyme’s gifts are best suited for (and how to know that, based on its taste!)
► Why thyme is such a helpful digestive aid
► Tips for harvesting thyme (and how to do so while still allowing the pollinators to enjoy its lovely flowers!)
► and so much more….
If you’re interested in learning more about herbal energetics, you’ll love my free Herbal Energetics mini-course, which starts later this month. This video training course will show you why herbal energetics is so important - especially when working with herbs for your health!
I’ll also be sharing an important safety guide for herbs as well as my Herbal Energetics Flavor Wheel.
