Then I suggest you don't carry so much 
Remember, you're a small town healer/herbalist. Think hard about what you really need to do your job. Your character probably wouldn't have too much more (also remember that you get one set of clothes free and weightless).
Herbs don't weigh much. A full pouch of herbs might ... might ... weigh 2 pounds. You'd need a small sickle, a spade, maybe a knife, a backpack, your spell component pouch, clothes, a bag to put the herbs into... do you usually go out herb-hunting overnight? If not, you don't really need any sleeping gear, or nearly a week's worth of rations. Do you have scrolls or maps or even the feat to make scrolls? If not, you don't really need the scroll case, parchment, quill, or ink.
I'm not saying "you can't have those things". I'm saying "think carefully about what your character would really have".

Enko usualy travels to all the surrounding farms and hamlets, I don't know how far away they are so I got a lot of food and camping equipment. The scroll case is for holding the parchment which is for taking nots and stuff. All of it together ways about half a pound though so that's not really a problem. The sling is to scare away wolves. The quarter staff is a walking stick. The dagger is a knife, I guess I'll just call it a knife and say it only does slashing damage. It doesn't say that Spirit Shaman's are proficient with Sickles, but whatever, it'll just be a tool anyway.
So what do you think? Also, are the farthest farms and hamlets still less than a day away?

I hadn't noticed the crocodiles, monitor lizards and bears oh my! (ok I noticed the bears) - maize and potatoes... Hey, who's for tortillas and fries?

That's what's great about fantasy! You can have corn and potatoes in a bronze-age-western-europeanish society! We're totally better than real ancient europe with it's lack of potatoes and corn!
