The Herbal Healing Circle is a monthly meeting of souls who wish to learn and share about plant medicine in its myriad of forms. Each class will begin with a different topic and will end with questions and group discussion. There will be handouts, herbal sampling, and occasional homework. The class is located in West Roxbury, MA, unless a medicinal herb walk has been scheduled...then we'll venture out to nearby fields and hold the class outdoors. To get directions and a schedule of upcoming classes, please send me an email and I'll add you onto the mailing list. You can also check this webpage for regular updates and articles.


Please bring a journal, an open mind, and experiences to share. Classes are $15-$20 sliding scale. Topics of discussion include:


*The importance of plant medicine
*In-depth focus on individual herbs and ailments
*Body systems (nervous system, digestive system...)
*Herbal traditions around the world (Ayurveda, Chinese, Native American...)
*The doctrine of signatures
*SuperFoods!
*The politics of pharmaceuticals vs. natural medicine
*Support and guidance for those who wish to treat themselves or others naturally
*Face and tongue analysis
*Flower Essences
*The roots of illness
*Why we owe it to ourselves and the planet to heal with plant medicine
*Trouble shooting: how do I know which herbs are right for me?

If you plan on attending, please RSVP so that we may have enough seats and handouts ready. Green Blessings! ~Melanie Rose

HERBS FOR DIGESTION


Sunday, Feb. 8th
2:00-4:00PM
in the Sunroom
@the heARTbeat Collective
$12-20 sliding scale

Greetings herbal enthusiasts,

We'll be taking a journey thru the digestive tract!....(don't worry, you won't be eaten....more like a creative visualization).  Topics of discussion will include common digestive ailments, herbs to treat each condition, and the root causes for poor digestion- physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually.  There will be handouts and tea.  And as usual, we'll have time for open discussion and sharing your favorite tips and any herbal remedies you've recently made.  To RSVP, please email me at mroseherbs@yahoo.com

If you've been meaning to come out and join us, now is the time since this may be our last class until summer.  (I'll be giving birth to a beautiful baby boy in early April.)  Although there won't be class, I will still be giving private consultations.   I look forward to seeing you in February!
May the magic of life fill your hearts and carry you thru the new year with purpose and joy.
