(Albizia, Bupleurum, Haritaki & More)
Welcome to the first 2026 episode of Herbalism Uncensored 🎉
In this episode, Alicia and Lila reflect on the pitfalls of traditional New Year’s resolutions and explore why winter is not the time for forced resets, detoxes, or abrupt change. Instead, they invite listeners into a more sustainable, seasonally aligned approach one rooted in pause, reflection, and gentle transition.
Together, they dive into powerful herbal allies including , Albizia, Bupleurum, Ashoka, Haritaki, and Bacopa, discussing how these plants support emotional processing, nervous system regulation, mental clarity, and the ability to let go without depletion. The conversation weaves clinical insight with personal stories, family rituals, seasonal wisdom, and practical ways to move into the new year without pressure or burnout.
This episode is for anyone feeling resistant to “New Year, New Me” culture—and ready for a more nourishing, grounded way forward.
