SEEDS OF HERBAL WELLNESS
What if you could confidently use herbs to manage your wellness?
SEEDS OF HERBAL WELLNESS is a beginner’s herbalism course for anyone seeking more than just contemporary medicine for staying healthy and well.
You know that there is a BIG difference between health care + wellness care.
Health care is objective. It is the umbrella of diagnostic medicine, pharmaceuticals, surgery, and while you respect that it is often integral in saving lives and that access to quality healthcare matters in your wellness, it doesn’t always feel good or improve the quality of life.
And YOU want quality.
YOU want to be a full participant in life, in accessing the nectar of the natural world, and in your wellness.
YOU don’t want to have to rely on the doctor for every little ache and pain, bump and bruise, cough and sniffle.
You know that herbs can help make you feel better, improve your digestion, help you manage stress, sleep better, take care of that cold better than any over the counter cough syrup can, and that they can do so much more!
YOU just need someone to tell you which ones and how to use them.
DOES THIS SOUND LIKE YOU?
You want to learn more ways to take care of your wellness at home
You admire natural wellness practices and don’t want to rely on your doctor or web MD for every minor ailment.
You want more ways to boost your wellness in conjunction with contemporary medical care or as an alternative.

It’s almost enough to never get started learning something that you KNOW will benefit you significantly.
The good news is that learning herbalism and making your own medicine is easier than you think!
You too can call your self an herbalist and make easy to use medicine and start putting your self care and wellness into your own hands!
