Hey, there! I’m Tara Gregorio
Originally from Massachusetts, I fell in love with a New Yorker in 2006 and haven’t looked back. I’m an herbal medicine teacher, blogger, and momma with big dreams of reducing medications for our community. I love Boxer dogs, organic chocolate, and a hot cup of coffee every morning.
How I got started
My worry about antibiotic use began in 2009 when I was planning a wedding for 300 and became very sick. I was at my lowest weight, had a rash on my leg, and had little to no energy. The doctors said I was “fine”. I didn’t feel “fine”.
When the doctors had no answers for me, I met with an Ayurvedic doctor. After one cup of herbal tea – I was hooked. I began my herbal medicine training.
But, it wasn’t until I had my twins in 2013 that I spent my last $2,000 on my credit card to get to the root cause of my postpartum symptoms -depression & anxiety. I enrolled to become a certified women’s herbal educator with Dr. Aviva Romm to find out why this was happening to me and how I could get to the root cause of postpartum depression and anxiety.
What I learned from the course, far exceeded my expectations. Many of my symptoms stemmed from my poor gut health; something called dysbiosis and leaky gut syndrome. And after Healing my gut {with the 4R approach} I finally felt better. Plus, I healed my Diastasis recti {a.k.a. “mummy tummy”} AND, overcame my depression, anxiety, and anger – all with natural remedies.

With still a lot to learn, I decided to close my beloved Pilates studio of seven years (with the help of a book called Necessary Endings) and became a full-time women’s herbal educator.

My son? He has also had his own challenges due to just a few rounds of antibiotics. Want to learn how to use herbs & homeopathic medicine with your children? Join Home Remedies For Children HERE.

Then in November of 2020, my husband passed away in front of me. Yes, in front of me!
- And that’s when I realized how important it is to share these herbal remedies with you now.
- And, how important my postpartum healing is NOW serving me as a single mother entering the peri-menopause years.
- Along with EMDR {a type of therapy}, I was able to lift myself back up and work through my grief. {Learn what EMDR is and how it can help you with this interview with my therapist HERE}
