I’m excited to share that I’ll be offering a community herb workshop on plant allies for better sleep at the Boston Acupuncture Project in Hyde Park. Learn more or sign up here and here! Workshop only $15-25 sliding scale, and will be Tuesday, February 25 from 6:30-7:30pm.
If you’re someone who doesn’t get the recommended 7-9 hours of sleep per night, herbs could be your ally. In this one-hour community workshop, we’ll talk about common issues surrounding sleep and DIY herbal preparations to address imbalances.
Plants can relax tense muscle, soothe intrusive thoughts at bedtime, and encourage our nervous system to “rest and digest.” We’ll learn strategies for balancing hormones and circadian cycles to encourage healthy sleep/wake cycles. Participants will be able to taste and try different preparations and will be encouraged to try making their own at home!
Workshop presented by Emma O’Brien: Emma is a clinically trained Western herbalist, birth worker and Hyde Park resident. She has been working professionally and personally with herbs as medicine for a decade, and has supported over 200 families in their pregnancy, labor and birth process.
