In business in Dallas since 2020, Earth and Sea Wellness is a 100 percent organic wellness company specializing in wild-crafted, fair trade products made from all natural ingredients and herbs from the earth and the sea. CEO Khadijah Karriem says, “Whether you are looking for medicinal herbs or tonics, all-natural skin and body care or wild crafted raw sea moss, sea moss gels and sea moss pills, Earth and Sea Wellness is your one stop for natural ingredient needs.”

She shares, “My father was the first person to introduce me to herbs growing up. We generally did not go to the doctor when we were sick. I am one of six kids, and I’m sure natural remedies for us were much more cost-effective, so I never turned to pharmaceuticals as a first option. After I had my first child I went through a lot, as he had cerebral palsy, and dealing with all of that as a young, first-time mother was overwhelming and I went through depression.”

She explains, “Looking for some kind of change, I met a woman name Tony Young that introduced me to a vegan way of life. She said that plants were peaceful, and when you eat peace you have peace. She was right. What she taught me changed my life, as I have been non-meat for over 30 years. It also sparked me to learn and research even more on how to live healthy.”

Karriem took her knowledge of herbs that her father taught her, along with a new way of eating, and embarked on a healing journey. “In the late 90s, I was introduced to Dr. Sebi [Alfredo Darrington Bowman], the world-renowned herbal healer, and studied and followed his practices. One of the primary philosophies Dr. Sebi taught was eating foods the rid the body of excess mucus, as mucus is a source of disease. One superfood that was high in the list was sea moss. It is this amazing superfood and this notion of how the body can heal itself with the right nutrients that have inspired my products at Earth and Sea Wellness,” she explains.

“While I was always the person friends and family would come to and ask what herbs were good for this or that, I didn’t think of turning that knowledge into a business until COVID hit. I was laid off from my job. We were all locked down. Day after day, we watched so many people die from this deadly virus. I wanted to help people. I also could see how so many were unhealthy to begin with and pharmaceuticals were abundant. My mission became to help people heal naturally. I started blending sea moss gels and posting them online; that turned into others asking to purchase some, then that turned into more and more talking about how it helped them. I realized my purpose and passion was to help people heal naturally and educate them on how to do that,” says Karriem.

She is happy to assist people that have lost hope for their health and show them that by changing their diet and the nutrients they put in their body, they can heal. Her motivation is a belief in God and that nothing is impossible for Him, expounding, “When we turn to nature for healing, we give our bodies the ability to heal itself.” Her personal philosophy is that there is nothing impossible for God if healing is within a persons reach, and she wants to help them achieve that. Her current mission is to get the word out about her products and how using pure raw organic products are best for wellness.
