A Constitutional Approach to Chronic Pain – Tuesday June 9th at 3-6pm AT (CLICK HERE TO REGISTER)
Chronic pain has many causes, and can be mysterious in origin. The medical system has tools to help people cope for a time, but generally does not offer a long-term solution. Herbalists can use energetic constitutional assessment to determine appropriate herbal support for each individual person. In this class we will explore: reasonable short and long-term goals; differentiating herbs and strategies for different presentations; the roles of sleep, digestion, and stress in chronic pain processes; and complimentary supportive therapies.
Herbs and Hormones – Tuesday June 23rd at 3-6pm AT (CLICK HERE TO REGISTER)
How can we assess a person’s hormone profile and recommend approprate herbs for them? Differentiating hormone imbalances and the hormonal effects of herbs allows us to choose an effective protocol for each person’s health goals. We will discuss specific indications for herbs that affect sex hormones, and review relevant physiology. This class will be taught through a gender-affirming and trans-positive lens, including discussion about safe and complementary use of herbs with hormone supplementation for gender affirmation.
