We are all herbalists already. Don’t you make tea when you have a stomach ache or when you’re trying to get to sleep? Becoming a certified herbalist, whether you want to become a Family Herbalist or a Master Herbalist, really starts with your curiosity of how things work. If you’re interested in using things in nature and methods that man and even animals have used for eons, then becoming an herbalist will be a fun and rewarding goal.
As an herbalist you’ll grow, harvest, mix and store your herbs for medicinal uses. Using herbs with or without pharmaceuticals can have unintended consequences. So, knowing your herbs and their interactions is a key to become a certified herbalist. Without a doubt, being or knowing an herbalist is pretty helpful. It’s always satisfying to show someone herbs in a whole new way. And as a substitute for some pharmaceuticals, you really can’t go wrong; avoiding the side effects of drugs isn’t too bad either.
Take a little time to discover the power of herbs and other natural elements in your world around you and in the future you can be the healer, reliever, and soother. Taking an online course is really a great way to study. Homework has never been so hard; take a walk outside and identify your local plants or grow your own in a garden or on your window sill. Anyone can learn the ancient art of herbal medicine.
As a supplement to your normal diet to strengthen your immune system or used for medicinal purposes, herbs and the plants around you will give you alternatives to “traditional medicine”. It’s funny though, what’s considered ‘traditional medicine’ has only been around for a hundred years; herbal medications have been used for thousands. These days, wouldn’t it be helpful to become a little more self-reliant within you and your surroundings?
