Motherwort + Mugwort: Weeds for Women with Patricia Kyritsi Howell

Patricia Kyritsi Howell, RH (AHG), is the founder and director of the BotanoLogos School of Herbal Studies, and author of Medicinal Plants of the Southern Appalachians. Patricia has been a practicing clinical herbalist for over 28 years, and in this episode, she shares with us two of her favorite herbal allies- motherwort (Leonurus cardiaca) and mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris).

In our conversation, we discuss the traditional ways in which these plants have been used to support women's bodies and cycles, and different ways of working with them. Patricia shares with us her own personal accounts of how and why these plants have been such an important part of her own healing journey, in addition to numerous clients she has worked with over the years. While each of these plants has a rich history of medicinal uses, Patricia also gives some insight to a more magical and energetic side of these wild weeds, and shares some tips for forming your own connection with them.
