  • Home Garden Workshop     Using Herbs Wisely, An Herbalist's Approach
  • Herbs are food, as well as medicinal remedies. Unfortunately, they do not come with labels that tell you how to properly use them. Choosing which herbs work for you and which forms to take can be difficult and frustrating to determine. In this class you will learn why and how this process works by understanding the basics of using herbs wisely with an herbalist with over 30 years' experience. We will discuss the different herbal forms, durations, doses and how to stock your herbal medicine chest. Find out about your dosha or body type and how that helps determine which herbs are situational appropriate. Includes a handout, dosha test, herbal samples, charts and eBook.
