| 4/5/26 |  An Uncensored Holistic (R)Evolution - The Grand Finalé | Grand Finale: Herbalism Uncensored Is Evolving + Giveaway + What’s Next In our final episode of Herbalism Uncensored, we’re saying goodbye—but not because of drama, burnout, or a falling out. This is a celebration of a chapter that’s run its course as Alicia and Lila grow into different visions for their work, while protecting the friendship and clinical collaboration that matters most. We reflect on how the show began, the moments that made us laugh (yes, the Dr. Pepper), the episodes that hit hardest (tincture math, anyone?), and what we’ve learned about authenticity, being polarizing, and having courageous conversations in the wellness space. We’re also doing a grand finale giveaway: enter the raffle for a $92 Banyan Botanicals daily routine bundle (drawing April 20). And most importantly—follow what’s next: Alicia’s new show The Holistically Correct Podcast (first episode April 19) and Lila’s new podcast Herbal (R)evolution. | 1h 13m 45s | ||||||
| 3/15/26 | A TCM Spring: Journey from Yin to Yang | In this seasonal episode of Herbalism Uncensored we explore the erratic shift from winter into spring through a traditional Chinese medicine lens, using yin and yang to frame why this transition can feel destabilizing and why it should be approached gradually. We break down spring’s key challenges—wind and dampness—and how they show up as upper-body symptoms like allergies, sinus congestion, headaches, and shifting pains, plus heaviness, sluggish digestion, and brain fog. We connect spring to the liver and gallbladder, talk about keeping qi moving to avoid constraint and “rising” patterns like irritability, anxiety, and insomnia, and share a supportive—not extreme—approach to spring cleansing with lighter warm meals, bitters and roots, gentle movement, rest, and liver-supportive herbs and formulas like chai hu san. | 43m 27s | ||||||

We tackle the messy, often controversial reality of herbal dosing and why it’s one of the hardest and most overlooked skills in modern herbalism. We break down what we mean by “therapeutic dosing” (dosing to elicit a real, measurable response) and why we often use bigger, more results-driven doses than the typical maintenance approach. We talk through dosing to effectiveness vs dosing to tolerance, loading doses vs maintenance doses, and how factors like tradition (TCM, Ayurveda, Western), preparation (whole herb, capsules, tea, tinctures), plant potency, digestion/assimilation, constitution, and body weight change the “right” dose. We share a striking case using 30g/day whole ashwagandha for severe anxiety/agoraphobia, discuss why herb books publish wildly different (often lawyer-edited) doses, and dig into tincture math and the problem of missing ratios. 🌿 Learn More About Our Work Lila’s ClinicThe Virtual Natural Healing ClinicClinical herbal and functional care for complex and chronic conditions. 📍 Free Mini Health Assessmenthttps://dashboard.mailerlite.com/forms/829732/158777877666465500/share 🗓️ Book Your Initial Consulthttps://TVNHC.com/start 🌐 Website: https://TVNHC.com📩 Email: hello@tvnhc.com Alicia’s ClinicHolistically CorrectA holistic approach that harmonizes ancient wisdom with contemporary lifestyles 📅 Book a session with Aliciahttp://l.bttr.to/xtlny 📝 Take Alicia’s free mini wellness assessmenthttps://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScUB8qEphaxXjjylg2GwgIyLPqjuKnRdefILd5GKAS9TtbBWw/viewform 🌐 Website: holisticallycorrect.com✉️ Email: holisticsolutions108@gmail.com 💌 Stay Connected 📥 Join Our Mailing ListGet exclusive episode extras, herbal resources, and clinic updates straight to your inbox.👉 https://dashboard.mailerlite.com/forms/1358662/147550106239894543/share 📬 Contact the ShowHave questions, guest suggestions, or feedback?

Medical system or just another wellness diet? In this bold and brutally honest episode of Herbalism Uncensored, we’re pulling back the curtain on the world’s oldest continuously practiced medical system — and calling out the half-truths, wellness-washing, and misunderstandings that dominate the modern conversation. From spa culture to dosha quizzes, garlic myths to rigid food rules, we bust through the fluff and explain what Ayurveda actually is — and how it’s been misrepresented in the West. This is not a soft, surface-level wellness trend. It’s a sophisticated, results-driven system of whole-person healing that includes surgery, psychology, pharmacology, and subtle energetics — all rooted in over 5,000 years of lived clinical experience. We cover: Why “Vata-Pitta-Kapha” is just the beginning — and not the whole story How modern interpretations have turned Ayurveda into a luxury product for the privileged Why Ayurveda can treat symptoms (yes, even migraines and insomnia) — and how The truth behind toxic-sounding ingredients like mercury and lead (and why they might not be so scary) What makes Ayurveda scientific, even if it doesn’t speak the language of clinical trials And why your grapefruit after lunch won’t land you in Ayurveda jail Whether you're a practitioner, a curious client, or someone who’s been turned off by the rules and rigidity, this episode offers a deeper, more accurate view — and invites you to see Ayurveda as it was meant to be: accessible, powerful, and deeply human.
