The blends offered here are created by very carefully selected vendors available in the US, Switzerland and India for your benefit. Each Vendor is hand selected for their special attention to herbal product manufacturing and philosophy toward healthy living. Many vendors are rejected as they focus on the wrong part of the Herbalism story - profit.
About the Blended herbals:
Some private label vendor blends can be modified upon request to improve customer satisfaction. Many of the ingredients used in the blends are
also sold separately. Check into our other Herbal links for more herbal
selection. If you don’t find what you are looking for, please

Philosophy:
A note from Mrs. Tousson:
Myself, along with Nature's Harvest and Herbs of Light, were featured
on Channel 13 news in Tampa, Florida in the early 90s regarding
the use of Herbs and Herbal Remedies and how they relate to
health issues. We all seemed to agree on the same basic philosophy
surrounding stress and lack of exercise and poor nutrition: Both can cripple
a person for life.
We’ve all seen in our daily lives that stress will be relieved.
We either end up collapsing on the office floor or we end
up taking stress medications. It's up to each of us, in our own way, to alleviate and risk-mitigate the mental and physical damage these conditions
leave behind. In addition to a HEALTHY DIET, EXERCISE may be a good place to start, as it's been proven to be a great way of relieving stress.
Then and now, I believe that natural lifestyle practices (consistent
exercise, a healthy diet and positive thinking), used in conjunction with the
herbal approach will greatly support overall health in every
stage of life.
History:
I'm the founder and CEO of Eclectic Herbal Blends, LLC. My background
includes over 16 years of Traditional Herbalism, an herbal tradition/shamanistic approach, in part, handed down from my Native American, Seminole, grandfather.  His son, my father, is Comanche/Seminole and my mother, a housewife of 9 children and an artist (paintings) and nature lover, who taught me more about plants, their purposes and names than I can remember. I'm very proud of my heritage and hope that I do it justice.
Education and Training:
My alternative Professional pursuits are MIS endeavors involved in Systems Protocol Conversion processes, Manufacturing automation processes, eCommerce and Banking, and Sr. Business Analyst - All freelance contract work; it also included employment included GE Power Systems in Atlanta, Georgia as a Project Manager/Business Analyst/Certified Green Belt for Marketing IT, (hated the job). After experiencing a number of job related health concerns due to stressful work environment there, I resigned in 2002 to focus more on my health and my herbal hobby business of over 13 years, Eclectic Herbal Blends, to grow it into a fully incorporated, full service herbal business to help others regain their health, as I did.
My educational background includes graduating with Honors from the University of South Florida with a degree in Management Information Systems, GE’s Six Sigma Greenbelt Certification Program, (along with a collection of sundry IT certificates), and the Australasian College of Natural Sciences, 2007. I am also a current Member of the American Herbalist Guild, Frontier Coop member and Natural Products Association member.
My husband is a Mechanical Engineer graduated from the University of Texas at Austin, working in Power and Energy for over 18 years.
It’s our strong belief that he’s successfully managed his stressful career and excessive travel through his disciplined approach to dieting and insistence
on exercising at least 3 times per week no matter what country
he’s in at any given time and making herbals and positive thinking a part of his daily life.
We both believe the time is today, now, to be healthy.
Have a Happy and Healthy Life,
Belinda Tousson, M.H.

POST NOTE:
Although, some members of my immediate family would STRONGLY prefer that I not claim my Native American bloodlines or acknowledge that I was taught in the natural way of things as a child, (as opposed to hunting and killing animals as they were taught), or use the word 'Shamanism' when discussing my early lessons of life in public. I do this with pride and enjoyment that the blood coursing through my veins is of the very essence of the ancient continent in which I'm born - America. The last time I checked, Censorship of a U.S. citizen was illegal -- the First Amendment still stands strong.
Knowing one's bloodlines also helps to indicate what type of hereditary health problems one may develop. It is very important to know the bloodlines and the health risks related to them. To deny it would be Stupid - or - Willfully Ignorant.
I'm sorry they missed out on these lessons that they could have probably used to stay healthy with today. A few family members are AMA experimentation lab specimens, in my humble opinion, so we clearly don't see eye to eye on many issues related to health and health care philosophies. In my humble opinion, most of them are pretty out of shape and relatively unhealthy. At the end of the day, I just didn't fit into what they wanted to force me into and it's their loss, not mine. I believe in the Natural Way and Natural Order of things.
Therefore, my immediate and some extended, family members are urged to seek natural, herbal and health knowledge elsewhere. Or better yet, think of a more positive thing to do with your time, (like exercising, eating right and hygiene care), than spending it on ridiculing my natural/positive lifestyle to others.
