✨ Please Help Us Welcome Our Newest Wellness Team Member! ✨

We are excited to introduce Rachael Kimbrel, a Classical Homeopath in training, who is now seeing clients at The Lamb Shoppe & Wellness Center for both chronic and acute concerns.

Rachael's journey into homeopathy began nearly two decades ago while searching for answers for her daughter's ongoing health challenges. After experiencing the profound impact homeopathy had on her own family, she developed a passion for helping others discover this gentle, individualized approach to wellness.

Since then, Rachael has completed four years of intensive study through the Academy of Homeopathy Education and is currently completing her clinical training. Her approach centers on listening carefully to each person's unique story and supporting the body's natural ability to heal.

🌿 What is Homeopathy?

Homeopathy is a natural system of medicine that has been used worldwide for more than 200 years. Rather than focusing on a diagnosis alone, classical homeopathy looks at the whole person—mental, emotional, and physical—to find an individualized remedy.

Homeopathic remedies are:
✔ Gentle
✔ Non-toxic
✔ Derived from natural sources
✔ Individualized to each person
✔ Able to be used alongside conventional medications

People commonly seek homeopathic support for concerns such as allergies, digestive complaints, headaches, anxiety, recurring illnesses, and more.

We are thrilled to have Rachael join our wellness community and look forward to the care, compassion, and knowledge she brings to our clients.

Please join us in giving Rachael a warm welcome! 💚

🌿 Meet Our 2026 Herbal Interns 🌿

One of our favorite parts of each year is welcoming a new group of herbal interns to The Lamb Shoppe & Wellness Center.

Our Herbal Internship Program is designed to give students hands-on experience in herbal medicine through plant identification, harvesting, gardening, herbal preparations, educational projects, and real-world herbal learning. But even more than that—it’s about building relationship with the plants, the seasons, and the natural world around us.

This year’s interns each bring their own unique stories, experiences, and passion for herbal learning 🌱

✨ Jennifer shared how herbalism completely changed the way she sees the plants growing around her and how herbs like yarrow, tulsi, elderberry, and burdock have become staples in her home.

✨ Jurney discovered a love for herbal medicine through her own health journey and has especially connected with stinging nettle—one of her favorite spring herbs for both food and traditional herbal support.

We’re excited to learn, grow, and work alongside these amazing women this season 🌿

One of the most beautiful parts of herbalism is realizing that healing plants are often growing right outside our door.

Help us welcome our 2026 Herbal Interns 💛👇

🌿 Ever walked past cleavers or burdock without realizing they’ve been used in herbal traditions for generations?

Cleavers is that sticky, clingy plant that grabs onto your clothes as you walk by—but herbalists have long appreciated it for traditional lymphatic and drainage support.

Burdock, often recognized by its burrs, has a rich history as both a wild edible and medicinal herb. Traditionally, it’s been used to support the skin, digestion, and overall cleansing pathways of the body.

These are just two of the many fascinating plants we’ll be exploring during our 🌿 29th Annual Founders Herb Walk 🌿
