People often tell me “life was simpler in the past” , that there was such a benefit they miss in the everyday , black & white descriptions they had of life and how to live it. People knew less about health and allowed much less human variance. The roles between genders were set and enforced, this can seem a comfort yet of course it’s a constraint . We were required to do less , because there was less to do .. and so much assumption and black & white opinion funded so much discrimination and oppression. What made it simple was not what we should want for now and not what people should promote as a way forward . Www.highstreetnaturalhealth.com

Herbs should be seen as the fabulous resources that they are but they cannot make unsafe situations safe or lower your cortisol whilst you are still in it or it is within you . As a wholistic practitioner we should always consider the context is the problem , the stress response is the product . And describe this in detail to our patients and ourselves . Not so that we feel defeated or downtrodden by our situation but so it can be effectively acknowledged- which makes the response less inflammatory and therefore less harmful.

This is a truth taught to me by my father and the longer I have repeated it , the more strange a suggestion it has seemed to be to people . What should be an obvious fact has become confused like so much else in our times . But it is essential in offering care to fellow humans , that I work from this space . What I have noticed though, is that it is an essential truth believed only by the working classes and as you move to middle & upper the statement becomes more and more fantastical , they don’t believe it because they must justify their privilege and oppression of people below them in social class and the more affluent our society has become, the more conservative people are in their thinking, they aspirationally imagine they are not of the working class , when actually anyone who works for anyone , be they doctor , lawyer or check out operator are by action , working class & if it were possible to acknowledge our collective status , we might treat each other better and be able to unite against the forces that really control the level of care we as humans receive.

Everyone is impacted by capitalism, the unceasing drive for more , better bigger. The concept that busyness or material possessions equal success . The commodification of humans and human relationships. The incentivising of overwork and exhaustion. The struggle against capitalism and the corruption it creates within the human experience is real and so are plants. Herbs have and can support humans , your nervous system is made up of two parts , electrical and endocrine (think stress hormones) , many plants can resource us to bolster our stress tolerance and improve our ability to find some calm despite our context . Some of my favourites are Lovage and Sarsaparilla - found in brilliant +brave https://www.heartcentredherbco.com/shop-products/p/brilliant-and-brave. Though I really find it hard to go past loving motherwort in Overwhelming+Overcome https://www.heartcentredherbco.com/shop-products/p/overwhelm-overcome- www.highstreetnaturalhealth.com

This checks out on so many levels , women are braver because we have to be .
Men might go to war - with their mates and weapons and a whole government behind them. Women go on dates without any body armour at all .
U.S. active-duty military deaths in 2025: !!! total 2 !!!hostile-action deaths.[osd]
• U.S. women killed by intimate partners each year: roughly 10,600 to 20,500, with a commonly cited incident-based estimate of about 17700 in 2021.[factually way higher)
How many women are let down everyday by simple and complex acts of a lack of bravery on men’s part. The emotions they will not face , the jobs they will not do because they do not want to - they call it deliberate incompetence- how many men would have s*x if childbirth was a likely result they personally would have to experience. How many have abandoned women to experiences , emotions they are too afraid to admit to let a lot engage around . They shut down and block out emotions and call it bravery, when it is of course fear www.highstreetnaturalhealth.com

Our nervous systems are electrical structures, thoughts impulses, decision, response , experience are all electrical firings & so I am a human electrician or electrix or electrice - how cool!? Intuition is not the magic , it’s described as , it’s a made up word , likely it’s a sense, a physical response , a skill . In my work I listen to humans , i observe how they speak , what they say , what they don’t . I listen to their radial pulses and can interpret the electrical responses there , I see , hear and feel what the nerves are carrying and I relate that back to the patient in front of me . So that I can accurately describe the bodies experience and open the space for acknowledgment. Where can care for and invite the patient to care for , their own body & their own experience.

Women are the most oppressed group of any race or creed or country, as John Lennon so rightly put it ‘Women are the Nxxgxx of the World’ . We are the lowest class of every low class. Why are we not rebelling? It is because of the success of patriarchy that we are not in constant rebellion. Women have been so traumatised we have internalised the repression, we have been told and believe we are not good enough , smart enough, pretty enough, that the difficulties we face are of our own making , that the abuse we endure should be expected because of how we look , or where we are or just that we are women . How many times I have to describe to a middle class women how she has been disabled by being ‘good’ or acceptable , told that if we are good little girls we will be looked after, we will be safe & protected (from other men) is part of this cruel fantasy told to women to keep them quite. And we have lost so much of our history our ways of being , we don’t know largely what it is to be women , what are our ways of doing everything? What is our culture, it is so lost and yet noone has ever described this , or searched for it or contemplated a royal commission or massive compensation for the astounding colonialism women have and continued to endure . There were matrilineal societies, how much of our land was stolen ? By men , we cannot know . The only structure for women to utilise currently is Punk - rebel at everything, scream out at injustice, support other women , identify the enemy as the structure that oppresses us , seek to burn the whole thing down , then we might see what truly is , for women .

These awesome shirts I created last year to celebrate women and what the wisdom of women is all about . It says - remember where you come from - there are no humans without women . That our governments, that our peoples should be led by the core needs of women & children . Because these needs - health , education, safety , housing are all that any humans really need . And if I was in a position to change the world this is what I would do . What we should all do . The knowledge of the necessities of life , women’s principle role in this , is what the unstable world we live in now , could reset & recenter around - Tshirts available in clinic & by DM - $42- www.highstreetnaturalhealth.com

This trope that we choose our parents our families is offensive, it’s middle class and it’s wrong. There is no mechanism by which this could happen and no one chooses to be born into suffering or poverty. This is middle class because it’s not possible anyone who has experienced real suffering would ever ever suggest it . It also suggests that there is some silver lining , some benefit that suffering people should be grateful for , which is where I start to get really angry . I had a patient repeat this awful conceit to me this week , to minimise their own experience and I will not have it . It is abhorrent that we should be told to thank our oppressors or perpetrators for our traumas , we are not who we are because of them . We are , in spite of them, despite what life unfolds , we are still who we are , however limited or held back , our responses are still visible , we can still be who we are . With support we can recover more of ourselves, more of the shape we would have been , without . Www.highstreetnaturalhealth.com
