We stan natural ways of healing!

care is lacking. It’s time for us to reclaim our traditional roots and heal one another,” they share. “We have had so many young, innovative Black individuals who want to become herbalists. They want to learn; they want to teach their families. That's where it starts. You have to start with the youth, and this knowledge will travel for generations on.” “I think there is a new generation of herbalists, doulas, and holistic healers in the Black community,” says Ibomu.

Despite herbalism practices being carried on through generations, there has been a significant disconnect due to lack of accessibility and information for those who live in urban communities. The rediscovery of herbalism is now becoming the beginning of a rebirth — a reconnection with what once was. “We’re reclaiming what is ours. Embodying what our ancestors always imagined us to be.

Recently, the Black Tiktok community has not been shy about vocalizing their issues on the app. Many have talked about feeling robbed by white creators who have constantly repurposed their culture, creativity, and content. Since then, the Black community on TikTok, especially Black women, continue to blossom as their most authentic selves, unapologetically reclaiming their culture and creativity that has been in their ancestry for generations. A great example of this is herbalism.

“Herbalism is mending Black women back together,” Guillebeau shares. “We are natural-born healers, and we are reverting to the ways of our ancestors. Black women are freeing themselves from the constraints of this world that have held them down. We are taking healthcare back into our hands through herbalism and healing the ones around us. It’s time for us to think about ourselves; it’s time for us to bring our community back together. Most importantly, it’s time for us to be free.
