Herbs promote wellbeing.  They can boost immunity, helping to prevent illness.  And if we succumb to disease, they can lessen the severity of our symptoms and hasten our return to health. 

This workshop will help you prepare for winter's health challenges.  Herbalist Jane La Force will introduce you to simple herbal preparations that strengthen your immune system, promote respiratory wellness, and help your body heal from disease. 

Jane will cover herbs that can help shorten the duration of the flu and reduce its impact.  She will explore remedies for coughs, colds, sinus irritation, and sore throats.  Chapped, dry skin will be addressed as well as seasonal affective disorder. 

Come and meet some helpful herbs.  Invite them to be your allies during the months ahead.

Jane I. LaForce has taught plant lore and herbal medicine for more than twenty years, offering apprenticeships, workshops and much more at Jade Hill Farmstead in Manchaug, MA and at various conferences.  She is currently President of the Women's Center for Wellness in Milford, MA.  Her first love continues to be the green world, a constant source of delight, which provides the roots of profound healing in her life.
