Plant Energetics: How Herbs Speak to the Body
Every herb carries a "personality" — an energetic imprint shaped by its nature, environment, and chemistry. Herbalism teaches that plants aren't just a sum of nutrients; they offer subtle signals to guide, balance, and heal the human body.
For example, warming herbs like ginger and cinnamon stimulate circulation and ignite digestive fire. Cooling herbs like peppermint and chamomile soothe inflammation and calm an overheated mind. Moistening herbs such as marshmallow root replenish dry tissues, while drying herbs like sage help clear dampness or congestion.
Understanding plant energetics helps us choose the right herb not just for the "what," but for the "why" — treating the terrain of the body, not just symptoms. In Herbalism+, we'll continue to decode the language of herbs so you can reconnect with the body's natural rhythms and nature’s medicine chest.
