Herbal Walk and Talk, Saturday, Sept. 7th

The herbs and flowers are in full bloom at LifeJOY Natural Medicine!  Botanical medicine is one of my favorite treatment modalities.  I love it not only because it has been used for thousands of years to treat just about every condition one can imagine but also because there is solid, scientific research behind its effectiveness.  And let's face it: on a purely sensory level, medicinal plants are thrilling!  Their scents are rich and intoxicating, their colors vibrant and alluring, their tastes, er, well, sometimes they're not so bad.  Even though some herbs can be a bit bracing and bitter (usually they're the ones that are SUPER good for us), others are simply a marvel to the palate.  For instance, did you know there is an herb with flowers that taste exactly like root beer?  And another with leaves that taste so much like lemons your face may pucker a bit when chewing them!

Join me on Saturday, September 7th at 1 pm for a tour of our little herb garden and learn all about some common botanical medicines.  You will be able to taste, touch and smell a variety of herbs, partake of some fantastic medicinal herbal teas & treats and learn how to safely incorporate the healing properties of medicinal plants into your life.  Class time approximately 2 hours, suggested donation: $10 (no one turned away).  See you in the garden!
