SUMMARY:Herbal Energetics with Jim McDonald
DESCRIPTION:foundational herbcraft  . : actions & energetics in weste
 rn herbalism : .\nIn western herbalism, our energetics are found in ou
 r actions, and yet... how well do we really know them? Is \"anti-infla
 mmatory\" really so useful a term? How long can we prattle on about as
 tringents? Are bitters really just \"digestive herbs\"? Who shouldn't 
 get which adaptogens? Is an alphabetical list of two sentence definiti
 ons of herbal actions anything other than dreadfully painful to read?\
 nJoin michigan herbalist jim mcdonald and we'll answer all these quest
 ions (and more!), with the help of old leather, soggy donuts, and who 
 knows what else; in the process making energetics practical, clear and
  more humorous than perhaps was expected...\nfriday (7 till 9pm)  Exp
 eriential energetics. Or: listening to your tea... we'll be drinking s
 ome mystery tea and using our bodies to interpret it's virtues.\nsatur
 day (10am till 6pm)  We'll begin our exploration of energetics, start
 ing with the six tissue states and developing that into an exploration
  of foundational actions; those western actions are the most directly 
 correlated to energetic states...\nsunday (10am till 4pm)  We'll expa
 nd our foray into primary and secondary actions, and discover how the 
 foundational actions that underlie these properties allow us to choose
  herbs directly correlated to the energetics of both the person and wh
 at issues they're dealing with...\nlocation... Wildroot Herb School, B
 ellingham, WA... we'll send ya out specific directions and such before
  the weekend.\ncost... Cost for the entire weekend is $250. Friday eve
 ning's tea tasting as a standalone is $25. Early registration will ass
 ure a productive, amusing and enlightening weekend and ~really~ helps 
 me out with getting everything set up.\nhours... Friday from 7 til 9pm
 , Saturday from 10 till 6ish, and Sunday from 10 till 4ish (with break
 s for stretching and eating, of course...).\njim mcdonald is an herbal
 ist in southeast Michigan (that cool state that looks like a mitten yo
 u can see from space) where he teaches, sees clients, wildharvests, an
 d concocts herbal formulas. His approach to herbalism is a blend of tr
 aditional folk and indigenous influences mixed up with a bit of 19th c
 entury eclectic and physiomedical vitalism, which he tries to blend wi
 th a bit of humor and discretionary irreverence so as not to appear to
  be too serious about life. jim hosts the website www.herbcraft.org wh
 ich lists his offerings and conveys his thoughts of plants and herbali
 sm.\n\nFor more information visit https://transitionwhatcom.ning.com/e
