At the Whole Health Collective, we specialize in radical detoxification and regenerative healing—supporting your body’s innate ability to repair, renew, and thrive. Regenerative Health is a comprehensive approach that gets to the root cause of symptoms and dis-ease by addressing cellular function, gut health, and internal terrain. By removing toxicity, alkalizing the system, and restoring flow to the lymphatic and digestive systems, the body is free to do what it was designed to do: heal itself. Through tools like iridology, full health consultations, nutritional guidance, flower essences, herbal protocols, and bio-resonance readings, we create individualized programs that activate true transformation. Whether you're seeking to address autoimmune conditions, reproductive issues, chronic fatigue, or simply want to feel your best again, Regenerative Health offers a path of clarity, empowerment, and lasting change. We believe suffering is optional and thriving is possible—and we’re here to help you do just that.
Simple Botanicals is a mother/daughter herbal company. We began making products for the public in 2001 because friends and family that we shared Herbal Medicine with were so impressed and happy with their effectiveness. Catherine (mom) is a self-taught herbalist. When life led her down the path of rural life and farming she needed something to use on her family and pets for their common ailments so she made her first batch of Wonder Balm salve and everyone loved it! The Wonder Balm just worked so well on every ailment we tried it on!
Yarrow (serendipitously named), the daughter, moved down to New Mexico in 2001 after attending school at the Mesilla Valley School of Therapeutic Arts and earning my National Certification for Massage Therapy. There I studied physiology and was completely intrigued by the inner workings of the body. Thereafter, I attended school in Bisbee, Arizona where I graduated as a Certified Clinical Herbalist from The Southwest School of Botanical Medicine taught by Michael Moore, the well-known herbologist and his wife Donna Chesner, an extremely gifted and wonderful woman herself. After a brief employment at the Vitamin Cottage where I learned much more about specific supplements and their effects on the body I moved to Truth or Consequences and opened my own Health Food Store where my knowledge of bodies, health, supplements, juicing, herbs, raw food dieting and cleansing grew exponentially.
Making the herbal remedies, growing the herbs when we had our farm and especially communing with the plants and helping people work toward better health are the rewards for me. My long term goal is to be a Naturopathic Physician but three children, a wonderful husband and one health food store later, I am offering my knowledge to you. We now have moved our office and workshop to my home in the lovely town of Truth or Consequences, New Mexico, where we continue to wild-craft almost all of our products. There is a large argument for the fact that herbs harvested closer to your home will work best for you. These plants are exposed to the same environmental toxins and energy frequencies as you are, making them more effective for locals (within 70 miles). As you know, most herbal remedies available do not come from your backyard and are still very effective but this is something to consider in treating yourself. We strongly suggest that if you can get the herbs locally, they will have an even more profound effect. We do order some herbs from very reputable companies when we need their physiologic effects but can’t grow them in this climate.
Yarrow Dankert is a Regenerative Health Practitioner, Certified Clinical Herbalist, and Clinical Iridologist with over 20 years of experience in holistic wellness. Her journey began in earnest in 2010, when she helped a man diagnosed with MS reach remission through coaching, juicing, and herbal medicine. Since then, she’s guided hundreds of individuals through transformational healing using a multi-layered approach grounded in deep detox, cellular regeneration, and a profound respect for the body’s intelligence. Yarrow’s training spans regenerative detoxification, massage therapy, flower essence therapy, reiki, kinesiology, and more. She creates personalized 3-month healing protocols, typically structured in phases, and offers ongoing support with monthly follow-ups to track progress and adjust direction as needed. Whether through full consultations and iris assessments or targeted guidance based on a single concern, Yarrow meets each client with intuitive care, deep insight, and a genuine honor to serve. She sees every client relationship as a sacred opportunity to witness healing unfold—and would be honored to walk this journey with you.
