Lily Of The Herbs Talks – Détails, épisodes et analyse

In this episode of Lily of the Herbs Talks, I sit down with Dr. Marc Cohen, a GP, researcher, and long-time advocate for accessible wellness. We explore where science and herbalism meet. Marc is wonderfully eccentric and full of love for life and learning. He shares his fascinating journey....“I went from being the alternative hippie doctor in a conventional medical school to being the conventional medical doctor at an alternative medical school.”

We talk about blood sugar balance, the healing power of honey, and simple, joyful rituals that help us reconnect with nature and vitality. Marc even shares a few of his poems on blood sugar and wellness playful reminders that wellbeing can be simple, sensory, and full of heart.

In this episode, I sit down with Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioner Jarryd Harvey of Yin Yang Medicine to explore his personal and professional journey.

We talk about his recovery from Lyme disease using acupuncture and traditional therapies, and how this healing path shaped his approach to medicine.

Jarryd shares stories from his early days of mentorship and his deep dive into kundalini yoga — a practice that, while once inspiring, left him disillusioned by the trends of the wellness industry.

Together, we reflect on what it means to return to the basics — reconnecting with the circadian rhythm, nature, over quick fixes.

We also wander into Jarryd’s love of astrology, unpacking what’s currently happening in the skies and how cosmic rhythms mirror our own.

It’s a warm, grounded conversation about healing, integrity, and remembering what really matters.
