Description

The Plant Medicine handbook was written in response to many requests over many years.
I use it in my workshops and it is currently being used at classes at UCLA in the USA. I devoted many years to studying herbal medicine from incredible practitioners and women healers in Eastern Europe, as well as more scientific degree-based study. The handbook is a distillation of all that knowledge, providing you with the basic information and insights needed to manage you and your families health. The emphasis here is on commonly found plants in simple, easy to prepare treatments.
In some countries people are still in touch with the knowledge of how to use plants to treat common ailments like coughs, colds, healing wounds and kitchen burns, we have lost much of that knowledge and many of us turn to the pharmacy when we could look to our gardens or wild places for support.

Covers: history of herb use, gathering/drying and storing plants, Preparing our medicines (infusions, decoctions, poultices, tinctures etc), ten plant profiles, Treating common complaints, and more.
I believe everyone should have access to this information, this is why i don’t charge very much for the handbook.

The handbook is 23 pages long and is a handy A5 size.
Cover artwork is by GrowMama -Anissa Ljanta. c 1999.

More information about the handbook or upcoming workshops can be found on my blog, GrowMama.blogspot.com
