Homemade Herbal Remedies

With Nadia’s guidance, we will learn about some different herbs, their properties and how we can make them easily at home with things we have on our window sills and in our gardens, as well as growing wild outside.

During the workshop, we will make some dry and wet remedies which can help with anxiety and make sleeping easier. With the leftovers, we’ll make tea to drink and discuss ideas and questions at the end of the workshop.

This workshop is perfect for anyone thinking about using herbs for their medicinal properties and will demonstrate how complementary therapies can be made at home, cost very little, and be accessible to all.
