An invitation.
I found the natural world from necessity, like so many herbalists and plant lovers before me.
After suffering lifelong battles with eczema, intense allergies, anxiety and depression, as well as ongoing digestive issues, I just knew there had to be another way. Unhappy with the “pill for every ill” remedies I was being offered, I hit the books and began a love affair with the ancient healing modalities of the world.
I partner with clients to holistically examine all aspects impacting their physical and mental health in order to create individualized treatment plans that weave together herbal medicine, nutritional guidance, lifestyle shifts, and your unique energetics. My goal is to help busy people uplevel their health and create lasting change through personalized regimens crafted specifically for you- no more guessing, no more googling for answers, + no more wasting money on the latest health fad.
My education is rooted in the traditional healing practices of Western Herbalism and Ayurveda, and the knowledge passed down through generations to restore the body to health. I take an evidenced-based approach with my clients; my protocols are a true marriage between ancient wisdom and modern science. Illuminating the path towards balance for my clients, we work together to define what health looks like for you and how to best get there.
I invite you to slow down and tune in. This is an invitation to find comfort, space, and restoration in your self-care practices in the everyday.
Here’s to living intentionally and with gratitude to the plants,
Lauren Ernst, Clinical Herbalist
