The Self-Taught Herbalist (July 17th)

How do you go from dabbling in tinctures to confidently using herbs for healthcare? How do you transform your enthusiasm into knowledge? Herbalism is a vast jungle of information that can be difficult to navigate without the right tools. In this two hour workshop, I will share a plethora of resources, tools and techniques that I have discovered over the years that you can use in your own journey into the study of plants as medicine.

We will be covering:
- various approaches to herbalism and resources to pursue for each
- Self experimentation
- Creating effective learning experiences for yourself
- Knowing your limits
- Plant identification and botany- how to teach yourself
- How to look up safety and dosages
- Remembering it all
- Reading list

This class is best for beginner or intermediate students who want to seriously pursue an herbal education, and perhaps become an herbalist or medicine maker someday. I designed this class based on the fact that school takes time and money that not everyone has. Not only that, but some people learn the best fueled by their own passion and enthusiasm.
