Herbs for Woman's
Health
A woman's body is a precious gift. To ensure that your body
maintains energy, vitality and the glow of optimal health, the use of
herbs is an excellent addition to a woman's nutritional and health
program. In this talk you will learn about several herbs that are helpful
for adolescents, women of the childbearing years, and both pre- and
post-menopause. You will discover the joy of creating your own tea blends,
using herbs in your food and the convenience of using herbal tinctures.

the Perinatal Patient
In this lecture you will learn about herbs
that support and nourish the female reproductive system. Herbs helpful for
nursing, relaxation and energy will also be discussed. You will also learn
how to use herbal alternatives for common problems associated with
pregnancy and which herbs are best avoided during this precious time.
An Introduction to Herbal
Medicine
This lively presentation includes the history and uses of
plants since history was recorded. Growing medicinal plants, proper
harvesting and storage techniques, and how to take herbal medicine will be

demonstrations on making your own herbal medicinal preparations will be
included.
Herbs for Common
Ailments

the nervous, respiratory and immune system (as well as others), while
discussing several common problems, which may occur within these systems.
Specific herbs for specific
 problems will be discussed.
The Uses of Native Texas Plants
Living in Texas
requires a patient and forgiving gardener and nature lover. In this class

practical, edible and medicinal uses. You will also learn about growing
these plants in your own garden.
Plant Walks
As a
Herbalist, an avid gardener and a plant enthusiast, I will lead a plant
walk; at my homestead or at a local area you might choose. Learning to
recognize a plant is essential to understanding and implementing its value
and use in your life. |
