Part of Wild Ginger Herbal Center's Bloom Class Series: This is a class for all experience levels to have a deep discussion on the practice of Sacred Reciprocity and other ancestral teachings, our inherent connection to nature, the importance of connecting with our intuition, how remembering our connection to nature is the key to healing ourselves, each other, and the planet.

Medicine Making For Collective Care

November 12, 2022 @12 – 2 PM – Malcolm X Park – Register Here

As the seasons shift and the days become shorter, mother earth reminds us of the beauty of  letting go and bringing our energy inward. As nature slows down, so do our internal systems. It’s important for us during this time to build resilience within our bodies and work proactively to nourish our own internal systems and those of our community.

Join us for a workshop on plant medicine making. We’ll be focusing on the healing wisdom of our plant ally Rose (Rosa Spp.) and crating a Winter Oxymel, ancient medicine combining herbs, with vinegar, and honey. The high-vibrational softness of rose connects us to our sensuality and heart, restoring vitality and joy. She has been used for her antiviral and antidepressant properties, high vitamin C content, and to bring down fevers. We’ll be breaking down the history and culture around the rose plant, how to identify her in the wild, her energetics and how she works within the body.

All supplies will be provided. Just arrive with an open heart and an open mind.
