The Magic of Herbs: A Podcast with Zen Maitri's Sara Hennessy

At Zen Maitri, we combine nutrition and meditation with herbal medicine. We get a lot of questions about the latter. For some, it’s a mysterious but interesting way to think about health. For others, it makes total sense to look to the natural world to restore our balance and maintain our wellbeing.

Some of the most common questions we’re asked include:

  • What is a herbalist?
  • What is herbal medicine?
  • What happens during a consultation with a medical herbalist?

Earlier this month, our store manager and medical herbalist Sara Hennessy spoke on The Penny Drops Podcast, a creation of Laurent Roure - who you might know from our various meditation experiences.

The Penny Drops is a podcast about life, mind and body, and knowledge and experience. In all, it’s a podcast about being human. Laurent has spoken to plenty of interesting guests since launching at the start of 2020.

Sara is Zen Maitri’s Manager, Lead Medical Herbalist and head of Zen Maitri Ayurveda. She holds an MSc. in Western Herbal Medicine and is a qualified Ayurvedic Therapist. Together they explore the topic of herbal medicine and answer some of the questions posed above.
