    Cooling Inflammation, Tattoos & Tarot | Rosalee de la Forêt & Caitlin Cordell

    Join Rosalee's FREE Cooling Inflammation Mini-Course LEARN MORE & REGISTER FOR FREE Available for a limited time! This episode of The Herbalist Hour is a little different. Recorded inside a working tattoo shop in Twisp, Washington, Mason sits down with herbalist Rosalee de la Forêt and tattoo artist (and tarot reader) Caitlin Cordell… while Rosalee is actively getting tattooed.  What unfolds is a lively, unscripted conversation weaving together herbalism, embodiment, and everyday practice in a setting that's anything but typical. Along the way, we dive into the nuances of inflammation—why it's not the enemy, the crucial difference between acute and chronic states, and how herbalism can support long-term vitality without fear-based restriction. Rosalee shares insights from her clinical experience, busts common myths (including the turmeric + black pepper debate), and highlights herbs like hawthorn and lemon balm as powerful, often underappreciated allies.  Midway through, the energy shifts as Mason and Rosalee receive a spontaneous tarot reading, adding another layer of reflection and meaning to an already rich conversation. It's equal parts education, storytelling, and real-life moment—needle buzzing in the background and all.
