Join us for an immersive afternoon exploring the fascinating world of herbal medicine for sleep, dreaming, and nervous system support.
In this hands-on herbal formulation workshop, we will explore the actions and uses of many of the most important herbs used traditionally and clinically to promote relaxation, restful sleep, emotional balance, and nervous system regulation. Participants will learn how different herbs work, when to use them, and how to combine them into effective formulations.
We will discuss a variety of herbal actions including:
Nervines
Relaxants
Sedatives
Adaptogens
Anxiolytics
Dream-enhancing and oneirogenic herbs
A special focus of this workshop will be the fascinating category of oneirogenic herbs—plants traditionally used to enhance dreaming, dream recall, lucidity, and exploration of the dream state. We will discuss the history, traditional uses, safety considerations, and practical methods of working with these unique plants.
Topics will include:
Understanding sleep physiology and herbal support
Formulating herbal teas and tinctures for sleep and relaxation
Herbs for stress, anxiety, and nervous system regulation
