Here we explore how to READ the symptoms your body presents YOU with. We’ll learn to Self-Test to see which herbs might be of help to YOU in the precise state you’re in.
Sept 24 - Herb Books - Choosing and Using
Bring in your faves, I’ll bring mine, and we’ll look at
the good, the bad and the BRILLIANT!
Oct 1 - Make your own: Infusions, syrups, honeys
The greatest powerhouses of ABSORBABLE nourishment, herbal infusions (way beyond tea!) can increase your energy, strengthen your nerves and just make you feel good all OVER
Using wondrous honey as a vehicle and preservative, you can turn all kinds of infusions into tasty, easy-to-take syrups
Oct 8 - Snorts and Sniffles
Ah, the ‘common’ cold? Sinus horrors? Barking, hacking, allergies,
all the fun that gets in the way of breathing,
which is something we really LIKE to keep doing.

The most medicinal of the herbal preparations, yet easy to do,

Nov 5 - Sleep, Rest, WHAT stress??
(I love doing this one) Sleep is so important in order to recharge, yet the things we most need to recharge FROM are the things that keep us awake. We’ll look at many ways to process the stress and get a good, solid night’s sleep without resorting to drugs.
Nov 12 - Make your own: Infused oils, salves, lotions
Not to be confused with essential oils and not created for scent

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
WHO’S LADYB?
LadyB, Barbara Hall: I’ve been an herbalist and teacher for many years, having apprenticed with Susun Weed in NY back in ‘93 and teaching in NY State even before that.
I embrace the Wise Woman Tradition of Healing (trust yourself, it’s all a spiral, ALLY with the wild plants that come up between your toes) and have been a professional gardener for well over 30 years, having an odd affinity for WEEDS.
My approach to teaching about the Healing Plants is that
they are WAY more than the sum of their milligrams,
and so my classes do not focus on constituent specifics so much as how we can learn to FEEL what each plant has to offer US
at any given TIME.
Teaching is one of the most joyous things I do. I just love it,
and I learn from every student’s path that crosses mine.
To see some of my herbal input, do check out

I moderate the Healing Wise and Plant Allies section.
