well being through plant wisdom

well being through plant wisdom

  • 10 Grand Army Plaza Brooklyn, NY 11238 (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

In our modern way of living, where we are more familiar with computer screens than the plants growing outside our windows, there is a great loss. A loss of connection with the natural world that leads to common and easily remedied illnesses. By learning to connect with healing plants we can restore a sense of belonging and bring physical, emotional, and spiritual wellness to our families. In our brief time together we’ll talk about ways to develop a relationship with medicinal plants as well as taste some herbal infusions that are safe and effective for healing common ailments, from tummy aches and headaches to insomnia and stress (ailments which are often all interrelated!). 

This is a talk for the Holistic Mom's Network, Brooklyn Chapter.

FREE

Held in Information Commons room #4 at the Brooklyn Public Library's Central Library.
