Integrative Herbal Medicine
Earth, Alchemy, and Embodied Plant Medicine
HYBRID
10 MODULES (500 HOUR)
APRIL 22, 2026
There was a time when medicine was not a system to master -
but a relationship to tend.
This Integrative Herbal Medicine program is a 500-hour journey designed to restore that way of learning—one that honors scientific rigor while inviting deep listening, presence, and reciprocity with the living world.
This program is intentionally slow and immersive. While it is rich in information—anatomy, physiology, energetics, alchemy, and ecology—the deeper aim is not memorization, but integration.
You will be invited to move at a pace that allows real relationship to form: with plants, with the body, and with your own way of knowing. Medicine here is not extracted or rushed. It is cultivated.
Why a waitlist? We use a waitlist to honor discernment—offering space to learn about the training, reflect on the commitment, and enter the application process with intention

Why Slow Medicine?
In a culture shaped by speed, efficiency, and extraction, it can be tempting to approach herbal medicine the same way—learning protocols quickly, collecting information, and moving on.
This program takes a different stance.
We believe that true herbal medicine arises through time, attention, and relationship. Slowness allows perception to sharpen. Presence allows the body to speak. Relationship allows plants to reveal their medicine beyond theory.
By slowing the pace, this training creates space for discernment, integration, and ethical practice—so what is learned is not just known, but embodied.
