Medical Herbalist
After graduating from Singapore Polytechnic in 1989, Sebastian Liew began his journey with various multinational companies. Despite achieving some success, an inner discontentment loomed over him. Each day felt like a battle, leaving an emptiness in his heart. Struggling with depression, he turned to antidepressant medications and, in a moment of vulnerability, prayed, “Use me for whatever you want me to do.”
As fate would have it, when the student is ready, a teacher appears. Soon after, several mentors entered his life, guiding him through beauty therapy, aromatherapy, spa therapy, and ultimately, naturopathy and herbal medicine. The pressing need to support his ageing parents made it difficult for him to embrace this relatively unknown field fully. He grappled with the question: “How can I make a living while supporting my family?”
A transformative experience during a three-day stay at an organic herbal farm changed everything. Liew connected deeply with nature as he touched the plants, tasted their leaves and flowers, and savoured their aromas.
This connection uplifted his soul, filled him with love, and opened him to the wisdom of universal intelligence. Inspired and with heightened consciousness, he moved closer to his true self. An indescribable joy surged within him, refreshing his heart like a spring of water. For the first time, he felt a profound realisation: he was not alone in his struggles; invisible forces were guiding him. The call of the plants and the awareness of God's love were so powerful that they brought him to tears during a sharing session.
Following this spiritual awakening, Liew dedicated himself to plant medicine.
Today, he leads a flourishing clinical practice in Singapore, specialising in the holistic treatment of chronic diseases, including autoimmune disorders, skin issues, women’s and men’s health, digestive troubles, and age-related ailments.
He is committed to fulfilling his higher purpose of healing the sick and guiding others toward optimal wellness with his 7 HEALERS method. His dedication has earned him numerous accolades, including the SME 500, the Entrepreneur 100 Award, and the German Hildegard Medicine Prize for pioneering European traditional medicine in Asia.
Liew is also the founder of Leaf to Life®, a practitioner-grade herbal product brand that supports his clients' journey to holistic vitality.
Renowned American herbalist Matthew Wood has hailed Sebastian Liew as one of the most talented holistic herbal practitioners.
