Announcing a New Class for Winter 2025
Herbs for the Heart
Saturday January 11th 9:30 – 3:00 PM, RiverSong Farm in Saxapahaw, NC
Please join me for Herbs for the Heart. In this one-day workshop, we’ll explore some physical and energetic aspects of herbs for the heart through Western, Ayurvedic, and Traditional Chinese Medicine perspectives.
While we'll dive into theory, this workshop centers on hands-on learning, medicine-making, and somatic experience.
Just a taste of what you’ll learn:
The best herbs for soothing anxious or grieving emotional heart
How to make your own high quality tincture and medicinal tea for heart health
How to incorporate herbs as food and medicine for heart and cardiovascular health as we age
You’ll take home your own heart-healing tincture as well as materials for your home reference.
Let’s connect together with plant wisdom in a caring and inclusive learning environment.
Cost: $120 + a $10 material fee.
Space is limited. Please email now to lea@greenheartnc.com to register
