Herbalism
Herbalism, is an ancestral system of medicine relied on by many to maintain health & emotion. It is the art of using plants and herbs to create plant spirit medicines and preparations to balance the entire system. Botanical medicine, or phytomedicine/ phytotherapy has been trusted for thousands of years and is one of the earliest and most natural systems of medicine known. I have maintained my own health, after battling several chronic diseases, and stayed in remission for several years now, by utilizing herbalism and plant medicines as the major part of my protocol. After decades of having to take thousands of dollars of medication a month, I now have only one medication (due to surgery) and I maintain my health with diet, herbs, nervous system regulation, and energy work.
Consultations
Now I’m no doctor or clinical herbalist (and I will quickly refer you to some), but often I find folks would still like a bit of guidance in choosing herbs to work with. My first piece of guidance is to trust yourself and ask your body, and I can give you some tips on how to do this. Perhaps you’re just dipping your toes into herbs and would like a suggestion of where to start, or you may be dealing with emotions or health issues and need some guidance and suggestions. I am here to help. Often folks add on an herbal consultation with their energy sessions with me. They find they liked something I used during the session and want to work with it more or they know they need some help with a particular issue and would like my help in choosing, or perhaps even blending, the right combination for them. Whether you use Herbalism as your primary focus or in addition to your energy work, I’m here for you.
Plants & Medicine
I grow the majority of my own plants for medicine at my home, within the most diverse mile in the nation, Clarkston, GA, 9 miles from our previous Cabbagetown garden, in Atlanta, GA. If you are in need of fresh or dried plants, please be in touch, I would love to provide you with them when I have additional inventory. I dream of supplying local herbalists with my plants!! Most of the medicine I make comes about from a need; myself, my family, my friends, or you, will have an issue and I will create something specifically to aid in that. Send me a message and we will see what we can make for you! Some products are staples in my own self-care and are items that I have on hand all the time. Often I will have those available on the shelves at the studios I am affiliated with, The Seed to Star Collective in Decatur, GA and The City of Light on the north side of the perimeter. I If you don’t find it there or are out of town, please send me a message and I will be sure you get what you need.
Types of products that I make: syrups/elixirs, tinctures, flower essences, bitters, body oils/salves, hydrosols, oils, ciders & delicious medicinal herbal tea blends, herbal salt blends, herbal facial steams, bath salts, energy/aura sprays, shamanic talismans, and more. WANT SOME? Send me a message today! Have Questions? Ask me in a message! I’m here to help.

Tea Time
Book some tea time with me and we can learn a few teas, how to blend them, what their energetic actions are and delight in some sipping along the way. Your choice of plants or mine, it’s up to you!
Due to pandemic I am not gathering for tea time currently. I am open to sharing this via video chat with you and send you the teas for us to sip together virtually if you would like. Just contact me and we can arrange it.
