What is Botanical Healing?
Botanical Healing is what I do in my Herbal Match Making Sessions. This is a conversation about everything going on with you and your body in which we will identify some plants that can support you in your thriving. I create tea, tincture, oil, salve, spray and/or balm formulas and recipes that I ethically source and create for you or that you can source and make yourself.
Herbal Medicine is the ancient practice of being in reciprocal relationship with plants for healing. From time out of mind, people have connected with plants for food, medicine and healing. Herbal medicine honors that both the human and the plant are complex beings with many qualities and gifts. Herbal medicine creates the relationship between the plant and the person to bring about balance and harmony.
Herbal medicine does not diagnose or treat disease. Rather it supports the body, mind and spirit in returning to a state of well-being.
As an extensively trained and experienced herbalist, I learn all about how it feels for you to live in your body, what strengths and challenges you have, what qualities present themselves in your internal environment, what symptoms you are experiencing and what your hopes, dreams and goals are.
With this understanding, I choose specific plants to be your allies in healing and create formulas specifically for you, based on what will most easily fit into your life.
Clients who take herbal remedies designed specifically for them, often experience a deep support from nature, improved sleep, better digestion, more mental clarity, increased ability to focus and more ease in their body, mind and spirit.
In a Botanical Match-Making Jam Session, you are invited into an in-depth compassionate discussion. Keath will listen deeply and introduce you to effective herbal allies for your physical, emotional and spiritual well-being. Keath supports you in creating an herbal wellness plan that fits into your life style. Keath formulates and creates remedies specifically for you or teaches you how to locate or make them yourself. Everything is based on your preference.
Virtually or In Person.
