About this course: Stress and anxiety seem to be the new normal. Many of us are navigating through layers of trauma, fear, uncertainty on personal, community, global and even ancestral levels. Our nervous systems may be struggling to find calm in the face of these changes and the complexity of modern living. Herbal allies provide a plethora of nutrients and medicine to restore and strengthen our nervous system as we learn to navigate a more stressful way of life. This day class is designed to give you practical tools to use to reduce the symptoms of stress and anxiety- fear, panic attacks, racing heart, insomnia, depression and “limbo” feeling that sometimes accompanies stress and anxiety. You will be introduced to plants that provide relief and sometimes clarification on how stress and anxiety are affecting you physically, emotionally and even spiritually. Herbs and simple daily practices of self care and body awareness are part of the discussion and will leave you with tools to integrate in to your life immediately.
Students will gain an understanding of the basic physiology of the nervous system as well as how to work with nervine herbs for acute situations of stress, anxiety, trauma and sleep struggles. We will explore how herbal adaptogens can provide long term support to help recondition the nervous system following prolonged periods of living with stress and anxiety. Students will touch, smell and experience herbal remedies in class that re-set your awareness of the para sympathetic (rest and digest) state of being.
