Meet Symone
Founder, Transitions herbal
I'm Symone, a herbalist passionate about helping everyone live with more ease. My love for plants began growing up in Texas, where I spent summers in my grandparents' garden and mixed puddles of water with leaves. Little did I know, those summers were the beginning of finding my passion.
Eventually, my garden plants became more than just food - they were allies and companions on my healing journey. I dove into learning as much as I could about herbal medicine and later began handcrafting herbal formulas for myself, my family, and my friends to support our bodies and minds in maintaining an active, healthy lifestyle while managing the changes that come with getting older. I think of herbs as close friends, gently guiding our bodies and minds in the right direction.
Understanding herbal traditions, contemporary research, and assisting others fires me up! I'm a forever student currently pursuing my Registered Herbalist designation from the American Herbalist Guild.
Transitions Herbal is the culmination of hundreds of hours of study, practice, and love. My personal mission is to help our bodies, hearts, and spirits live with a little more "heck yeah! ", and it is my deepest hope that you find that here.
Philosphy of Healing
For the love of bioavailability.
Because we want your body to access the plant’s superpowers efficiently and effectively, we use novel methods to extract and deliver the active compounds in herbs. Our extraction process both concentrates and enhances the beneficial aspects of plant allies. The end result? potent, fast-acting formulas with superior bioavailability and minimal side effects - aka "getting medicine to the tissue" like a pro.
Philosphy of Healing
Why herbal application routes matter.
Just like a roadmap to your wellness, delivering herbal medicine through appropriate application routes is key to optimum effectiveness. While most herbal products rely solely on ingestion, we believe the gastrointestinal tract is not always the most efficient path to all body systems. Which is why Transitions Herbal formulas are available in sublingual, nasal, and topical forms using natural, organic carriers to transport herbs directly into the bloodstream or through the skin into muscle tissue. This multi-modal delivery system ensures that the selected herbs’ effects are maximized throughout the body without sacrificing flavor.
