Course Description
The plant kingdom offers powerful healing for those who understand how to tap into its potential. In this 6-lesson course, we will introduce a new way of understanding healing with plants. We'll talk about:
The 5 dimensions of herbs and plant healing
Recent research into the health benefits of plants
A multi-faceted view of why we have so much chronic illness
Ways that plants can prevent future disease
Flower essences, herbal healing, plants as food, aromatherapy, other plant modalities
You will see how these understandings integrate both physical and non-physical aspects of plant healing, drawing on science, as well as a variety of healing modalities and spiritual traditions from around the world. For both students new to plants and healing, as well as those who have a fair amount of experience in this area. You won't ever look at our green friends the same way again!
