Free Vitalist Herbalism Webinar — John J. Slattery Bioregional Herbalist, Forager, Author Learn the underlying principles of Vitalist Herbalism, how to work with plants for individual healing, and how to apply bioregional herbalism in your life.

I've been gathering experiences with plants and information about their Nature for over 20 years.

Starting with a philosophical independent study into Chinese cosmology about 25 years ago, I began applying Chinese herbs on myself to observe the effects.

Then I went wild and found myself surrounded by Nature and indigenous herbalists guiding my way, all across the Americas.

The unofficial training continued as I settled into the Sonoran Desert bioregion and began applying all that I had learned, and continued to learn, from my first two primary inspirations.

I learned to observe the landscape, the elements, the seasons, and the plants' responses to them, and in turn, the way I responded to them, all within a framework of energetic herbalism.

This has been the foundation of my approach to Bioregional Herbalism which is intimately connected with the landscape and the wild plants therein.

Woven throughout all of this, including the spirit of the landscape itself, has been my own path of ancestral healing.

What began as a spiritual path, albeit reluctantly, nearly 25 years ago, grew, by necessity, into a business and was a lifeway before I even recognized it as such.

Persisting at all of it over the years, has provided for a deep, rich network of experiences and relationships that has many layers of nuance and subtlety - just as we ourselves do within.

All of this wrapped up together, in the broadest sense, is my approach to Vitalist Herbalism.

This is an approach to using herbs for deep healing in one's life, just as I have, as well as grounding and rooting oneself in the local landscape and its rich web of intricate interconnections that serve to inform us and invite us back into the web of life when we have gone astray.

I am bringing all of this forward now in my forthcoming online Vitalist Herbalism cohort course.

Nestled within a private online community we'll explore the herbs in depth while exploring ourselves and the natural world around us. The community engagement will provide a network of likeminded, engaged and inspired individuals seeking to learn and apply this knowledge within their own lives and, in turn, share it with the world.

As of this morning, the Vitalist Herbalism Cohort Course is open for enrollment.

There are 3 different enrollment tiers to choose from providing more or less engagement all the way up to an in person field study workshop and private one-on-one sessions.

I hope you choose to join me in this cohort on our intimate journey through Vitalist Herbalism!
