Khus + Khus
Not your typical herbalist. More of a modern-day yippie of sorts. Kristi Blustein believes in plants and their ability to support growth, healing, and expansion of consciousness. Mainly because she uses them on herself. She also practices and studies yoga, ayurvedic, and plant medicine. In fact, she enjoyed them so much that she decided to spend 5 years and over 2,900 hours to study them under the guidance of some of the most renowned teachers in each field. Kristi started her Ayurvedic training at the Alandi Ashram in Boulder, Colorado, and completed her training at the California College of Ayurveda. She also studied at the American Institute of Vedic Science which was founded by David Frawley and has extensive aromatherapy training with master herbalist and aromatherapist, David Crow of Foracopeia. Thereafter, Kristi started looking for a way to share her vast knowledge of traditional herbalism and modernize it so that everyone can tap into the power of plant wisdom. She decided that the best way forward was to create a line of plant-based products formulated to help one move toward a more holistic lifestyle and balanced existence. She launched KHUS + KHUS in 2016. Her credentials include Ayurvedic Specialist, Ayurvedic Health Practitioner, Aromatherapist, Herbalist, and Certified Yoga Teacher.
