Spring and summer invite us outward—into movement, growth, creativity, and connection. In this seasonal herbalism class, we explore plant allies that support the body and nervous system through times of rising energy, heat, and expansion. We will cover herbs that cool inflammation, soothe seasonal allergies, support digestion, regulate stress, and protect the skin as we spend more time outdoors.
This class blends practical herbal knowledge with energetic, astrological, and folk perspectives—honoring both the medicinal actions of plants and their relationships to the sun, moon, and elements. Participants will learn to recognize and harvest common seasonal plants, understand their physical and energetic properties, and explore how to prepare them as teas, oils, salves, and everyday remedies. Throughout the course, we’ll also discuss boundaries, pacing, and nervous system regulation—essential skills for navigating.
This course honors the long, hot days of the year not as something to endure, but as a necessary and sacred phase of the cycle— one that invites you to build confidence in working with herbs as living allies, supporting resilience, vitality, and embodied presence through the season of growth.
