Description
As the Winter Solstice nears, a blanket of silence covers the natural world. Each turning of the year's wheel inspires us to pause, listen, observe & learn. So, let's attune ourselves to what Winter is offering. We will take a look at the energy of the plant world while connecting the dots to the many ways in which human and animal respond in kind. In this class we will head outdoors to harvest in the wild and take what we receive back into the classroom. Based on what's in our baskets, we'll use traditional extraction method practices to get the beneficial compounds out of the plants and into our bodies. In this make and take experience, you can expect to go home with two herbal preparations based on supporting our wellness needs as we enter into the dark and cold months to come. In this class we will be seeking to harvest plants which support the upper respiratory system, as well as working with other plants that increase heat, chi and nourishment. While it's impossible to predict "who" will be available for us to work with, what I can share is that in past winter classes we've made: Tinctures, Herbal Electuaries, Warming/Circulatory Support Infusions, Methods for working with Dried plant material, Herbal Infused Chocolate Truffles.
