Empowered Wellness: A Series on Herbs

Support – Digestive wellness is a critical component of overall vitality, but it’s something we’ve been taught not to talk about. It’s time to ditch the taboo! In this class, we’ll talk about the role your senses play in digestion, bitter: the lost flavor, toilet truths: what your bowel movements can tell you, and herbs and other simple ways you can support digestive wellness.

Bio:
Hi, I'm Janelle. Finding my passion for herbs was the result of personal frustration and some fortunate turns in my path. I was a few years out of college and by most “normal” standards, very fortunate and successful. In reality, focus and motivation was too often a struggle, my energy seemed to have vanished, I realized how little I laughed. I didn’t feel “bad,” but I didn’t feel good, either. Other than suggesting I lose a few pounds, allopathic practitioners had little for me. I was frustrated and hell bent on finding a different way. That path eventually led me to herbs. I felt something spark, bought my first herb book, and the rest is history, as they say. The plants called, I followed. Now I’m grateful to be able to share my knowledge and experience with others, helping to empower communities and offering mutual aid. As part of my work with Herbalists Without Borders, I offer at least three solidarity (pay what you can) herbal consultations per month and provide free webinars/ educational resources/ other community outreach. Every paying herbal consultation client and webinar attendee contributes to making this possible - thank you!
