No one turned away :)
It's that time of year when a family member brings home a cold or the flu and it manages to make the rounds in your house. We look for a miracle cure to end the cycle of sickness, but the fact is there is no magic bullet. We turn to over the counter drug store remedies that promise relief but they suppress the symptoms by suppressing our immune systems and often only make things worse.
By slowing down and nurturing with herbal remedies and natural healing we can break the cycle of winter illness!
In this class we will:
Learn how the body works with the immune system.
How to naturally support the immune system to prevent and recover more quickly from colds and virus infections.
Learn which herbs to use for which symptoms and how to use them and why.
Understand dosing when using plant medicine.
learn what herbal medicines you should have in your medicine cabinet for the season.
We will be making some Fire Cider to take back home. Bring your favorite chopping knife and cutting board!
Energy Exchange/Workshop Fee: $30
Workshop will take place at: Hearth & Gather
