The Herbalist
Emily Stock is an herbalist from Moab, Utah. She was born and raised in the heart of southern Utah’s canyon country, outside of Moab in Castle Valley. She has had a lifelong passion for natural medicine and healing, inspired by her love of ecology and gardening.
Emily apprenticed, interned and self-studied herbal medicine, Taoist philosophy, and Ayurvedic medicine for 5 years before starting Sundial Medicinals in 2011. She is a graduate of Michael Tierra’s East West School
of Planetary Herbology, and attends annual herbalism conferences to continue her education. Her training includes Western, Chinese and Ayurvedic constitutional analysis, pattern assessment, and herbal and nutritional treatment.
Emily is also a birth doula and childbirth and postpartum educator. She has been doing birth work for over a decade, and she is passionate about helping people and families find fulfillment through the childbearing process. She offers many birth and postpartum classes and individual trainings.
Helping people connect with herbs as a way of holistic lifestyle is one of her larger focuses in herbalism. As a clinical herbalist, Emily’s focus has been supporting people with chronic disease patterns - inspiring wellness through herbal, nutritional, and lifestyle guidance. She hopes to contribute to the increasing the awareness, appreciation, and use of herbal medicines.
Emily spends a lot of her time with herbs. Growing, harvesting, processing and formulating herbs, teaching workshops, consulting with individuals and hanging with her young kids are her passions.
/ Common Questions /
How much is a dropper?
A dropper is one squeeze of the rubber cap; it usually ends up being about 30 drops.
Where do you source your herbs?
Sundial herbs are from a variety of sources. The herbalist grows many herbs, wildcrafts some, and some are bought from herb companies – mainly Pacific Botanicals and Mountain Rose Herbs. A few Chinese herbs are bought from lab-tested NuHerbs. All herbs are either certified organic, cultivated without chemicals (“organic” but not certified), or ethically wildcrafted.
How many droppers are in a 1oz tincture?
There are about 35 droppers in 1 fluid ounce. This means that a 1oz tincture with a standard dosage will last 2-3 weeks.
How do I take a tincture?
Most people take tinctures directly in the mouth, either on or under the tongue. Alternatively, especially if the tincture has a strong taste, you can put the recommended dosage in a small glass of cool water. Hot water is not generally recommended because volatile oils can evaporate with heat, diminishing the effectiveness. Also, it is often recommended that the tincture be tasted - so adding it to a small amount of water is preferable to juice or a larger amount of water.
Where do I store my tinctures?
Tinctures do best in a dark place at room temperature. Although the glass is protective of sun light, it is best to keep them out of direct sunlight. No need to refrigerate them.
Can I give tinctures and teas to my pets?
Generally, yes. Take into consideration the weight of your pet. For example, if your dog weighs half your weight, cut the dosage in half. Either mix the herbs with food or squirt the tincture directly in the mouth (not a very popular method amongst animals)
