Foundations: Global Herbalism for Pain - New Insights

Sept 21, 2026

5 pm PT / 8 pm ET (45 Min)

Pain is the most common reason people seek help of any kind, and it is also one of the most poorly explained. Most of us are handed a name for our pain, arthritis, sciatica, a bad back, and very little sense of what is actually happening or why it behaves the way it does. Why does it ease when you move but hurt when you first stand up? Why is it worse in cold weather, or at night, or after a difficult week?

This session is ideal for anyone living with ongoing pain, anyone curious about herbs and natural approaches, and anyone who wants to understand the difference between pain that can be managed at home and pain that needs professional attention.

Advanced: Global Herbalism Approach to PCOS - New Insights

Sept 28, 2026

5 pm PT / 8 pm ET (90 Min)

Polycystic ovary syndrome ( Now Polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome (PMOS)) is the most common hormonal condition in women of reproductive age, affecting roughly one woman in ten, and it walks into herbal practice constantly.

This 90 minute session is built as an advanced approach for those who see this condition and want to work with it more precisely. It does not assume medical training, and every clinical concept, every laboratory measure, and every diagnostic criterion is explained from the ground up in language a practitioner without a medical education can use immediately.

This session is ideal for herbalists, Ayurvedic practitioners, nutritionists, and anyone in practice who wants to move beyond a single PCOS protocol toward a strategy that fits the woman in front of them. All are welcome.

Foundations: New Global Herbalism Approaches for the Liver

Oct 19, 2026

5 pm PT / 8 pm ET (45 Min)

Your liver does several hundred jobs, quietly, without complaint, and usually without a single symptom until something has gone quite far wrong. Fatty liver disease has quietly become the most common liver condition in the world, affecting roughly one adult in four, and most of them do not know they have it.

This friendly session was created for everyday people who want to understand what their liver actually does, what can go wrong with it, and what genuinely helps. No medical background is required, just a curiosity about your own body. If you have ever been told your liver enzymes are slightly high and left the appointment none the wiser, or wondered whether any of the liver products in the health food store do anything at all, this course is for you.

Advanced: Global Herbalism and Medicinal Mushrooms

Oct 26th, 2026

5 pm PT / 8 pm ET (90 Min)

Medicinal mushrooms are the fastest growing category in natural products, and they are also the category where the gap between the label and the contents is widest.

In this webinar, you’ll learn to evaluate these products properly. We’ll cover extraction methods growth mediums, species by species evidence, and safety and interaction issues.

This session is ideal for herbalists, Ayurvedic practitioners, nutritionists, and anyone in practice who recommends medicinal mushrooms and wants to know what they are actually recommending. All are welcome.

Professional: Vastu Shastra for Harmonious Living and Working Spaces

The spaces you live and work in shape your daily life in ways you rarely notice – your energy, your mood, your sleep, your relationships, and your sense of ease, yet most of us arrange our homes by habit or chance rather than by design. For thousands of years, the Indian tradition of Vastu Shastra has taught that the way a space is oriented and organized, its light, its directions, and its flow, quietly influences the wellbeing of everyone inside it. These ideas are far older, and far more practical, than most people realize. This course is ideal for anyone curious about Vastu for their home, apartment, or workplace, and for those who simply want to understand one of the world’s great traditions of harmonious design.

If you want to learn kick-ass herbalism backed by millennia of tradition, validated by decades of hands on experience, and amplified by modern scientific understanding, you’re in the right place.
