In Winter Seasonal Medicine, herbalist Jess Turner will explore medicinal herbs and healing foods that help us fortify ourselves in the season of stillness. She will share winter remedies from some of the oldest medicine systems in the world, while helping attendees attune to the wisdom that the Earth offers in the quiet of winter. 

We will make an herbal cough syrup and warming, immune-strengthening herbal chai tea blend from Jess' recipe. Grab and Go kits to create the recipe will be made available for the first 20 registrations. We will email you when available.  The recipe will also be shared in advance if you'd  ike to procure your own provisions.

This is now a virtual event. Registration required for Zoom link.

Farthest from the sun, in winter we are most at the mercy of the elements, with colder temperatures and shorter days shaping even our inner world. We find ourselves getting sick more often, bemoaning crotchety Old Man Winter while we pine for summer’s breeze. But for all its challenges,​​ winter offers us an opportunity: to rest, reflect and set intentions for who we want to be in the world—and in our bodies—when the earth begins its thaw. In a world driven by productivity and bottom lines, it encourages us to take space to simply be.
