About the Guest:
Bonnie D’Arcangelo is a clinical herbalist, certified aromatherapist, and founder of a holistic phytotherapy center rooted in indigenous, Ayurvedic, and traditional herbal wisdom. She helps clients heal through personalized herbal support while advocating for ethical plant conservation and emotional-spiritual integration in healing.

Key Takeaways:


Bonnie’s healing journey began with medical uncertainty as a child and deepened when her daughter was diagnosed with autism. Both moments pushed her into natural medicine, sparking a lifelong mission to explore deeper healing.

Evidence-based herbalism and intuitive plant wisdom can coexist. Bonnie explains how some traditional practices, like asking plants for permission before harvesting, are now supported by modern science.


She highlights the spiritual importance of conserving endangered native plants—not for consumption, but to ensure the survival of earth’s sacred medicine.


Bonnie encourages people to start their healing journey by forming relationships with local plants. Whether through tea, growing herbs, or simply spending time in nature, the best medicine often grows around you.
