Learning to combine herbs together into effective medicinal formulas is often challenging and, perhaps, one of the harder things to teach individuals. One must not only know the properties of the individual herbs, but also have some understanding of the synergistic action between plants. Rosemary uses a simplified version of the Le Sassier Triangulation method of formulating to teach students how to effectively blend herbs. She’ll guide you step by step through the process and work with you through several exercises that will help you discover how simple, fun, and easy it is to make effective blends for specific needs.

We can buy the most nutritious food and cook the best meals, but if our gut health is comprised and our digestion is poor, most of what we eat won’t be assimilated. Digestion ~ and liver health because it plays such a key role in digestion ~ is a key factor in health, well being, and healing. Learn the important role that herbs play in digestion and liver health. We’ll discuss digestive bitters, carminatives and mucilaginous herbs that all have an important role in digestion. Many of these herbs can be found growing in our backyards and have been used by our ancestors for centuries.
