BIG NEWS: Our newest course is officially here!

Do you dream of creating your own herbal recipe book? One that’s full of effective, original, well-balanced formulas inspired by your unique herbal journey and expertise, and the needs of the people for whom they are intended?  Our herbal recipe book would be something environmentally friendly, maybe a wax canvas-bound cover and handwritten interior, with oil stains on the pages and pressed flowers tucked into the spine. Part recipe book, part diary, part scrapbook – it would smell of the garden and be bursting with tried-and-true herbal recipes.

Crafting your own herbal formulations is a beautiful way to develop and share your herbal legacy – a tome of time-tested formulas that your family and clients will treasure for years to come. It’s also how you can start creating personalized formulas based on unique wants, needs, and energetics.  If you’re ready to progress from following other peoples’ herbal formulations to developing your own, then you will not want to miss our brand new offering, the Mastering Herbal Formulation Course.

For thousands of years, herbalists have combined plants to create multi-herb formulas for everything from grief to infection, and the practice continues to this day.  But how do we know which herbs are best combined in a formula? What makes a good formula effective? And how do we know if an herb is best used in a tea or tincture?  There are so many questions on the minds of herbalists when learning how to combine herbs!  You not only need to understand the properties of herbs, you also need a foundational understanding of phytochemistry, solubility, and herbal interactions. And it all starts with asking the right questions to get at just what you need to know to create an effective personalized preparation. This course will walk you through all of these skills and more! BY THE END OF THIS COURSE, YOU WILL …
