HERBS FOR MENTAL HEALTH #2
*this is not a part two class / just another listing of the first mental health class to make room for more people :)
Saturday, July 3rd, 11AM-1PM PST ON ZOOM
As someone who has lived with hyper empathy and sensitivities their whole life and swings characterized as “mental illness” ~ this is an important class for me. While we won’t be going deep into our own stories - this class will touch on various herbal allies to help support us in our instability. I like to think of mental health framework as something my dear friend Sophie Macklin (teacher of ungovernable bodies, beyond the blood: connecting with anti fascist ancestors) - if we were all truly supported our “mental illnesses” would be a gift, a prophetic knowing. This creates much more space for celebration & anti capitalist ideologies in action. & this is where I have found the gifts of herbs and all beings - the never ending support system of the universe - and how I have come to the healing work of herbalism & animism.
however since we are living in a late capitalist paradigm - us gifted holy special “disordered” wild bright shiny sparkly open hearted empathic diamonds in the ruff can have it rough at times. this class will speak on that. we will explore herbs for various mental health needs - nervous system support, bi-polar crash pick me ups, grounding tools for disassociation, depression, anxiety, and building safety security with some psychically protective plants - even a few things for ADHD!
i am a crazy person. i am NOT a licensed therapist, psychologist, doctor, or really anything at all. i am speaking from my direct experience with herbs for myself and in my clinical practice. some herbs mentioned could have contraindications with medications! please ask your healthcare provider if you are concerned!
