Herbal Wellness Consultations
Vibrant wellness is fuel for creating a life you love.
A holistic approach to health acknowledges the interconnection between body, mind and spirit. Herbal wellness consultations offer an opportunity to work with the power of medicinal plants to address physical, mental and emotional health through a vitalist approach that expands healing potential and helps create lasting improvement in our overall wellness and vitality.
Vitalist herbalism honors the innate intelligence of the body and uses our herbal allies to work with the body instead of against it. Symptom suppression is not a focus of this model. Rather, illness and symptoms are considered to be vital communication from the body and are used to help identify the systems and energetics that are out of balance.
A key to effective herbal medicine is understanding the energetics of both plants and people. In vitalist herbalism, it is important to identify which plants are best matched to a person's constitution and specific condition. Even though an herb may have the correct herbal action (i.e. what it is good for), if it is not properly matched to the energetics of the condition it may be ineffective or even worsen the imbalance. This is why choosing targeted herbal allies can be much more effective than just trying out popular herbs or formulas!
On a more subtle level, we listen to the plants and call upon their holistic healing wisdom to address our dis-ease on a deeper energetic or soul plane. Soul-level or mental/emotional patterns can often be at the root of physical imbalances. The plants have an amazing ability to meet our healing on all levels.
A holistic herbal wellness consultation is primarily focused on getting to know you and the patterns within your body, mind and emotions. We will discuss specific symptoms as well as your overall health, lifestyle, diet, patterns, challenges, dreams and longings. Based on this information, you will receive guidance for herbal allies that would be aligned to support your wellness, and how to work with them. The more we form a relationship with our plant medicines, the more healing they are able to offer.
Some herbal remedies may be available through Wild Earth Rose's private apothecary, while others may be sourced locally or from quality suppliers (recommendations available). Please note that the cost of herbs is not included in the consultation fee.
