About this Event

Why This Space Exists

Our nervous systems are carrying a lot.

We are navigating systemic injustice, collective grief, burnout, and the relentless pace of modern life. Many of us are supporting others while quietly running on empty ourselves.

This workshop is an offering of collective care.

Because sustainable liberation requires regulated bodies.
Because community care starts with tending to ourselves.
Because the earth has always held medicine for overwhelmed nervous systems.


What We’ll Explore

Guided by two licensed therapists, this experiential workshop weaves together:

  • Psychoeducation on nervous system regulation
  • Herbal education focused on hibiscus, chamomile, rose, tulsi
  • Intuitive tea blending and tasting
  • Discussion of integrating herbs through teas, tinctures, and body oils
  • Somatic grounding practices and breathwork
  • A facilitated sharing circle

This is not a lecture.
It is an embodied experience.

You will learn.
You will feel.
You will connect.

Participants will take home herbs to continue exploring how plant medicine supports their regulation practice.


Who This Is For

This space is especially supportive for:

  • Caregivers and helpers
  • Anyone experiencing overwhelm or nervous system dysregulation
  • Anyone curious about earth-based nervous system support
  • Therapists and healers
  • Community organizers and activists

No prior experience with herbalism is required.


What to Expect
  • Gentle, accessible somatic practices
  • Grounding meditation
  • Community connection
  • Practical herbal knowledge
  • Tea creation and tasting
  • A tangible takeaway to support ongoing regulation

You will leave with tools — not just information.


What to Bring

  • An open heart

All herbs and materials will be provided.
