Herbalism Foundations

The starting path for anyone learning plant medicine from the ground up

Six lessons covering what herbalism is (and isn't), when to see a clinician, plant energetics, the body's core systems herbalism works with, preparation forms, and how to build a starter apothecary you will actually use.

What you'll learn

  • Identify the scope and legal/ethical boundaries of lay herbalism in the US, including when to refer to conventional care
  • Read any herb through a basic energetic lens (warming/cooling/drying/moistening) and match it to a person or condition
  • Prepare at least four foundational remedy forms safely in a home kitchen
