282: Ancient Herbs, Modern Strength - with Logan Christopher
05 Feb 2025
In a world dominated by synthetic solutions, ancient herbalism offers a powerful alternative for health, performance, and longevity. Logan Christopher, strongman, herbalist, and educator, bridges traditional wisdom with modern goals. His journey highlights the relevance of nature-based healing. Learning from Nature's Power Ancient healers observed the natural world to uncover potent remedies. For example, noting the strength of ants, they used ant extract for vitality, which is still valued today for its effects on energy and endurance. This method of learning from nature remains a cornerstone of effective herbalism. Herbs that provide noticeable benefits are crucial. Cordyceps mushrooms enhance workouts, pine pollen supports hormones, and blue vervain calms the nervous system. These herbs have long histories of traditional use, with modern science now validating their efficacy. The Potency of Spagyric Tinctures Lost Empire Herbs honors herbal traditions using spagyric tincturing, an ancient method that involves burning plant material to extract minerals and reincorporating them into tinctures. This process creates more complete and potent remedies. Ancient herbalists understood that healing is about the whole plant and supporting the whole human, not just isolated chemicals. Reconnecting Through Herbalism Modern life disconnects us from nature, leading to various chronic diseases. Herbalism can rebuild that connection. It's not about rejecting modern medicine but remembering the natural solutions that have supported human health for millennia. Whether it's enhancing vitality with ant extract, calming the mind with blue vervain, or restoring balance with pine pollen, ancient herbal wisdom offers valuable solutions. True herbalism involves engaging with nature, experiencing the effects, and trusting its intelligence. In this podcast you'll learn: How nature served as the original teacher for ancient healing systems. The concept of "feelable" herbs and their tangible benefits. Spagyric tincturing, an alchemical method for potent herbal remedies. The importance of reconnecting with nature through herbalism in modern times.
