Our very own Wendy Warner, MD, ABIHM, IFMCP and Andrew Appello, DACM, MSN, L.Ac., APN, RH(AHG), have just launched their amazing A&P course, available here! Theyarewonderful teachers and have a depth of knowledge on anatomy and physiology (as well as many other topics), especially as it pertains to clinical practice, that few others can offer. We believe you will find this class not only highly educational but deeply relevant to becoming a clinical herbalist.
I will be teaching classes on Adaptogens: Herbs for Strength, Stamina and Stress Relief and Little-Known Medicinal Plants of the Southeastern U.S., as well as joining Phyllis D. Light for a Wild Medicine Walk.
In our program we strive to teach the skills necessary so that each student can accomplish that goal. We focus on differential diagnosis skills, materia medica and therapeutics which are essential to individualize treatment and help patients to not only resolve symptoms, but create constitutional change needed for physical, emotional and spiritual wellness.
From David Winston I learned an impeccable integrity of practice, demanding standards of looking at the whole person, and intimate knowledge of a 300-plant materia medica. Our class, whether on-site or on-line, has been a community, puzzling together over our triune formulas and case histories. This is an international web of students–from a dozen countries–present in the classroom over our two or three years together. In class we learned the heart and landscape of David’s lineage in traditional medicine, along with Western, Chinese, Ayurveda and Middle Eastern herbal traditions. We worked with a unique, large-scale Additional American materia medica.
David stands out as a synthesizer and innovator of healing traditions and disciplines, a master teacher in herbal practice, an historian of the Eclectic and Physiomedicalist movements that shaped American herbal practice. As a founding member of the American Herbalist Guild, he helped lay the foundation, standards of practice, and educational mission that supports the growth of herbal practice in the United States.
Remember–our class is product of a 40-year teaching career. At our best, we students carry the integrity of David’s clinical practice, his love of the plants, solid pragmatism, humility, blazing curiosity and the willingness to communicate to the patient whatever inner and outer change is necessary to be whole.
