Intro to herbal medicine: Tonics and elixirs - herbs for winter wellness

Part of a series of herbal medicine workshops introducing different ways of using healing plants. The mornings are practical and informative, giving hands on experience of making different types of medicines. You'll leave with remedies that you have made, and information for making many more.   

Tonics and elixirs: herbs for winter health. 

Winter can be a challenging time for our health. Yet with herbs we can keep our systems balanced and strong so we are more able to resist infections. We can also use herbs to help us recover more quickly when we're ill. In this practical day we'll look at different herbs to support us in common winter health challenges, and make simple remedies to take home to support us through the winter, such as cough syrups, fire cider tonics and various infusions and decoctions with local plants.

´Thankyou Tim for a great winter wellness workshop today. We really enjoyed it and came away with lots of knowledge on the effects of herbs on our health. Would definitely recommend it and will be coming to more of them. Thanks, Sam and Saffron´
