School of Phytotherapy
Within you is a healer. You are not just here to feel great. You are invited to a higher purpose.
We don't need more successful people.
We need more healing people.
“My big dream is for you to self-heal through plant medicine and to have the grace and wisdom to heal others.”
"I am very grateful to Providence that I was called to a higher purpose some 20 years ago – to heal others through plants.
Since then, I have seen the magic of plants to support the healing of my clients' acute and chronic health conditions – physical, emotional, and spiritual.
Thanks to my teachers and the old doctors, I learned various herbal traditions from all over the world - Chinese, Ayurvedic, European, Native American, Southeast Asian, and St Hildegard medicine of Germany.
My passion and mission are to pass on my knowledge and experiences to my clients, mentees, students, and future herbalists.
We don't need more successful people. We need more healers."
" I am not teaching you just on herb knowledge. That is easy. I am teaching to be a herbal healer."
Introduction
Phytotherapy or medical herbalism is a complementary health system that combines ancient traditions (mainly Western and increasingly covers Asian traditions) with the cutting edge of current scientific research.
You will learn a combination of herbs from the East and the West. As far as possible, each herb is studied based on both Eastern and Western traditions.
For example, the Asian herb galangal is used in TCM as a digestive aid and for heart pain in German Hildegard medicine.
The complete herbal consultant course has 36 lessons and three levels:
Level 1 for self-care and family health
Level 2 for Phytotherapy
Level 3 for Phytotherapy
Before we can heal others, we need to heal ourselves first. The level 1 course, therefore, serves to set a good foundation for your herbal healing journey and professional development.
