Our FREE community workshop series on the use of herbs for health and wellness continues! Many thanks to our partners at Sacred Vibes Apothecary, and to Q Gardens for hosting.

EXPRESS YO’ SELF!
Strengthen Your Voice & Being with Plant Medicine
with Anyanwu and Emerson
Release better, breathe better, feel better. This workshop is for anyone that wants to stand in their power and understand how the use of your voice can change your life.
We will cover communication as it relates to the throat chakra and how the use of your voice impacts organ health and social/emotional well-being. Through learning about medicinal plants that support the respiratory system, digestion, and thyroid glands, we will explore the ways these plants can support us in speaking our truth.
Come and learn about the following herbs that are connected to strengthening your ability to ‘EXPRESS YO’SELF!’:
• Dandelion – digestive system and liver support
• Mullein – lung and nervous system support
• Lemon Balm – nervous system and thyroid function support
• Tulsi – digestive system support
1:30 – 3:00pm
