Autumn and Winter usually go hand in hand with an increase in colds, coughs, temperatures, viral infections and tummy upsets. Knowing how you can support yourself and your loved ones naturally can make such a difference.
In this workshop we will learn about a number of plant allies – from wild medicines to amazing garden herbs and kitchen cupboard spices! You will learn how to use them effectively when it comes to treating a variety of winter infections. You will also get a better understanding of which foods nutritionally support your recovery, and which foods hinder it!
We will make a number of preparations for you to take home so that you are ready to treat a range of conditions and symptoms that arise.
Winter preparations that we will make, taste and learn about include:
• Herbal infusions (to use as teas, soaks and gargles)
• Decoctions (to use as teas, soaks and gargles)
• Firecider vinegar
• Herbal vinegar & oxymel
• Syrups
You will be provided with a notebook which includes information on 24 key herbs, a number of recipes and preparation tips, illness symptom pictures and treatments, along with space to make your own notes.
You will get to go home a Winter Herbal First Aid kit containing:
• Breatheasy Essential Oil blend
• Colds and Fever support tea
• Cough syrup
• Echinacea tincture
• Elderberry & spice vinegar
• Firecider vinegar
• Headcold / sinusitis spice blend
• Onion and garlic syrup
Some of these remedies you will get to make yourself during the workshop.
Herbal tea will be available throughout the day and a mug of hot soup at lunch time! Please bring your own accompaniments to your mug of soup.
Afternoon tea and cake are also included in the workshop fee.
Cost: £145, which includes your Winter Herbal First Aid kit (worth over £50), your 27 page notebook, and herbal teas and food provided.
Spaces are limited to 12 adults, early booking recommended - DM or email me.
