Remedy & Rhyme is a space where poetry meets the power of plants.
Each episode begins with a poem — a soul offering inspired by a single herb — and follows the thread of its deeper herbal wisdom. We explore what the plant stirs in the heart, the ways it invites us into greater wellness, and how we might carry its gifts into our own lives. With each unfolding episode, you'll find gentle reflections, grounded holistic practices, and simple ways to welcome herbalism into your daily rhythms.
A podcast for lovers of Earth, language, and the liminal — where the sacred and the everyday meet, one plant at a time.

#2: Rosemary – Ancestral Guidance When Times Are Tough
In this episode, we explore the rich and rooted medicine of rosemary (Salvia rosmarinus)—an herb of clarity, protection, and deep remembrance. From its physical gifts like supporting the nervous system and easing headaches, to its sacred use in rituals of honoring the dead, rosemary invites us to reconnect with our ancestors and the wisdom they left behind. We'll look at traditional uses across cultures, its connection to memory and the feminine archetype, and how rosemary can support us in reclaiming our wholeness—body, mind, and soul.
Each episode will begin with a poem and flow into a deeper dive into a featured herb—its stories, energetics, remedies, and reflections. This is a journey of reconnection.
