In this moving excerpt from Episode 68 of The Herbalist Hour , Dr. Tieraona Low Dog offers a deeply grounded reflection on what self-care truly means — and why she believes we can let go of the word "self" altogether. She speaks on love as something that must include ourselves, the importance of quiet and time in nature, and why the voice we hear in solitude is often the one we most need to trust. Drawing from lived experience, family, and the natural world, Dr. Low Dog reminds us that we are both profoundly strong and deeply fragile — and that both truths deserve tenderness. You'll also hear a thoughtful exchange about distraction, technology, walking in silence, and how listening to the land can reconnect us to our purpose, our ancestors, and our place in the long chain of life. A beautiful reminder to slow down, take the headphones off, and remember that you are not alone — and that you are here for a reason. WATCH THE FULL INTERVIEW ON YOUTUBE 🌼 WANT MORE HERBAL GOODNESS?
