331: Herbalism And Traditional Chinese Medicine with Stacey Cirillo, CHP

Written By Chelsea Blackbird
 
 
 

In this episode, we’re exploring the fascinating world of herbal medicine through a biblical lens with herbalist and Chiristian Health Practitioner Stacey Cirillo. 

Stacey shares her journey into herbalism, how plants in God’s creation support the body’s design, and how systems like Traditional Chinese Medicine approach health by looking at patterns in the whole person rather than just symptoms.

We discuss how herbs can support digestion, immunity, and autoimmune conditions, what an herbalist actually does, how the tongue and even facial lines can reveal clues about health, and why medicinal mushrooms are such powerful allies for the body.

Cristal DuBois, CHP is also joining in to share her personal experience working with Stacey as her herbalist CHP and how a deeper look at her health story helped connect some important dots.

This conversation is a beautiful reminder that God has placed wisdom for healing all throughout His creation and that caring for the body often means learning to listen more closely to it.
