Ep 65 Innate Wisdom of the Healer ~ Alicia Melrose (Old Gold Season)

Season 6 Episode 65

Today we are joined by a very special guest. Alicia Melrose is a Natural Health Consultant, Medical Herbalist, a truly wise woman and Indigo’s beloved mamma. 

Alicia developed her enthusiasm for herbal medicine when she lived in Indonesia with a Sumatran Shaman. She went on to become a registered medical herbalist and has now been in practice for over 33 years and offers a multidisciplinary practice based on a holistic, supportive approach to health. Her goal is to enable a person to take a proactive and life changing approach towards health. Always in awe of the potential of herbal medicines, she has a passion for her work and a deepening understanding of the causes of disease processes.

Alicia believes that we all have an innate wisdom and healing capacity and that our personal challenges provide us with an opportunity to deepen our connection to the intangible.

We chat about:

  • The incredible story of how Alicia was called to the herbal path (2:39)
  • Holistic herbalism and the importance of developing a relationship with plants (6:00)
  • Alicia’s experience with Ayahuasca and what it taught her about mental health and plant medicine (8:50)
  • Feeling called to the plant path and how to begin developing a relationship with the plants (13:20)
  • How disease and personal challenges provide us with an opportunity to connect to our inner wisdom (23:00)
  • The relationship between mind and body and the importance of listening to our bodies (31:06)

And so much more!
