The weeds I’m in lately ...
Supernatural News is a publication about herbalism and holistic health, the industry of wellbeing, and resources from Pharmakon Supernatural. Aka: The weeds I’m in lately. In inboxes since 2015.
Holistic and conventional medicine can agree on a few things—the importance of daily fiber intake being one of them. And here psyllium husks takes the cake when it comes to getting your daily dose. I’ve also been loving organic fiber potency+ from mindbodygreen, for a quick boost.
On repeat: Jennifer Piercy’s mediations for sleep.
This Substack read, The Art of Noticing by Rob Walker, is rich.
Recent inspiration for future work: This short film series celebrating directors who have a way with words.
Diabetes breakthrough: Dahlia flower. Blood sugar balance is always a top priority.

SUPERNATURAL PRESS & UPDATES
One of the most frequently asked questions around here is “Where do I start with herbalism?” While this a biggie, I highly recommend the book Medical Herbalism by David Hoffmann, which I’m teaching through on the podcast right now.
As you now know, I’ve started the process of writing a book (!!!), and am doing so to the tune of my Dreamy Writing Brain Space playlist.
The Supernatural Show is now live on Youtube, Spotify and anywhere else you listen to podcasts. This project is so near to my heart so stay tuned for more video episodes and join the budding community on Youtube … ⤵
Leaning into the seasonal change with our HRBLS gummies—my always go-to for supporting systems in times of transition.

A formula for immune fitness
By now, my personal+professional protocol for immunity is pretty set.
Herbal teas are key, and it’s again the season for hot, which I also recommend.
Get warm from the inside out by layering up and increasing heating herbs and spices. I have garlic, ginger, turmeric and cayenne on repeat.
Supporting our immune systems long-term, rather than just when it’s too late.
For that, I love Big Bold Health’s whole suite of immune-system rejuvenation products and, as seen here, the HTB Rejuvenate, a formula based on plant intelligence more than individual vitamins or minerals. It’s a full-spectrum, custom blend of phytonutrients that occur naturally in Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat (HTB), an ancient plant with powerful immune-restoring properties.
Nutritionally, it’s about more plants, and also inspiration from Blue Zones. Vibrant food is one of the best tools for maintaining all systems’ balance.
Remember to rest, and also to keep it moving, which is often even more restorative than sedentariness.
