Nourish & Breathe Workshops
COMING SOON! THE HOME HERBALIST
The Lost Art of the Home Apothecary
A waitlist is now open for our upcoming workshop series, beginning in May 2025.
This practical workshop series has been inspired by some of our most popular workshops! is designed to reconnect you with the ancient art of healing at home — using plants from your garden, remedies from your kitchen, and knowledge passed down through generations.
The Home Herbalist series will offer a month-by-month introduction to the safe and effective use of herbal medicine to support yourself and your family at home. Each session focuses on a specific body system, guiding you through plant profiles, anatomy, herbal preparations and simple remedies you can create yourself — from immune-boosting syrups to calming teas and healing salves.
You can join one session or the whole series, and together we’ll begin to build your own home apothecary, deepen your understanding of plant-based medicine, and gain confidence in using nature to care for everyday ailments — first aid, fevers, grazes, headaches, digestive upsets and more.
If you’re curious about herbal medicine and feel drawn to the idea of becoming your family’s everyday herbalist, we’d love you to join us. The sessions will focus on
Session 1 – Herbal Medicine: The Plants & Immunity
Get to know the plants that support your immune system and learn how to use them with confidence. We’ll talk through the basics of herbal medicine and how to grow or source your own. You’ll learn how to make simple remedies like elderberry syrup and fire cider that you can make at home.
Session 2 – Herbal Medicine: The People & Digestion
Learn how herbs work with your body — especially your gut, which is the starting point for so much of your health. We’ll look at different herbal actions, what they mean, and how to choose the right herbs for common issues like bloating, digestion or general gut support.
Session 3 – Herbal Medicine: Making It Yourself & Nervous System Support
You’ll learn how to make herbal teas, tinctures, salves, syrups and more. We'll also focus on herbs that help with stress, sleep and calming the nervous system — including options that are safe for kids. You'll go home feeling more confident about making and using your own natural remedies.
Session 4 – Circulation, Pantry Potions & Everyday Wellness
Herbs that support circulation, energy and daily vitality — using what you already have in the kitchen. You’ll learn how to mix herbs together, create your own blends, and know what to watch out for when using herbs regularly. This is about weaving herbal care into your everyday.
Session 5 – Women’s Health at Every Stage
From first periods to menopause and beyond, this session is all about supporting women’s health naturally. You’ll explore herbs that help with cycle balance, energy, mood and more — and how to tune into your body and respond with what it needs.
Add your name to the waitlist and we’ll be in touch with upcoming dates and details.
