Show 8: The Herbal Medicine of Saint Hildegard

 

Listen to "Show 8: The Herbal Medicine of Saint HIldegard" on Spreaker.

Merry Christmas!  In this episode, I discuss Saint Hildegard and her herbal medicine. Saint Hildegard of Bingen lived over 800 years ago and was, likely, the greatest herbalist of all time.


Here is an extra little Christmas gift for everyone. Saint Hildegard composed some of the most beautiful music imaginable. In fact, she is the first documented female composer and the most prolific composer of the middle ages! Try playing this in the background during your holiday gatherings and I'll bet everything will be a bit more peaceful and joyous... after al, this is literally the music of the angels!
