Welcome to A Black Woman’s Apothecary

Thank you for being here and empowering yourself to learn more about your body and health. I believe the resources regarding our wellness are often disempowering and do not give the basis for mixed perspectives. I help women rewire their health by blending integrative medicine, herbalism, ancestral wisdom and medical astrology into soulful, science-backed guidance for holistic healing to achieve the epigenetic wellness that we all deserve!

Who am I?

My name is Dr. Alysia Lillian and I am a medical doctor, trained herbalist, medical astrologer, and divine wisdom seeker. My passion is guiding women toward balance and harmony in their lives by integrating my knowledge of herbalism, spirituality, wellness practices, medical astrology, functional medicine, science, yogic practices, and Ayurveda.

I have a deep love for all things self-care, from using ethical skincare products and crafting nourishing, grounding recipes to surrounding myself with aesthetics that inspire and uplift.

As a doctor with holistic roots, I blend the best of Eastern and Western medicine to create a comprehensive, personalized approach that honors the spiritual, physical, and emotional dimensions of health. By considering the profound influence of our epigenetic blueprints, I empower individuals to take control of their health and shape their wellness journeys.

Why should you read A Black Woman’s Apothecary?

This is a collection of my doctor-ly wisdom and my innate activism that will not conform to oppressive systems. I will dive into the origins of health concepts from the realm of my background as a medical doctor and public health researcher and a profound seeker of spiritual wisdom and ancestral guidance. This is my ode to the black feminism roots of mine that prompted me to increase visibility and resources for people all over the world to help empower them to support themselves in creating routines and rituals that support their overall health and well-being. I hope to increase awareness around the necessary merging between science and spirituality to support you on healing your hormones, adrenals, immunity, and soul.

This apothecary is a weaving of the ancestral wisdom that moves through me as a black woman and granddaughter of healers. It is a culmination of writing that stems from a deep need to root science and Western medicine back to ritual and the natural rhythms of life. May these words and wisdom offer you the healing you need to empower you in your everyday life and beyond.
