A Celebration of Healing Ceremonies

Join Dr. Michael Friedman, ND for a deep dive into the neuro-endocrine system and Rocio Alarcon, PhD for a celebration of healing ceremonies and indigenous ways to learn about plants. Students will experience both ancient and modern approaches to plant healing. 
Michael Friedman will explore the use of herbs to treat such common issues as thyroid deficiency and adrenal burnout as well as more serious disorders: autism, MS, ALS, and Parkinson’s disease. There will be a discussion of case studies to illuminate herbal strategies. Rocio Alarcon brings forty years experience with ethnic groups in the Ecuadorian rainforest to combine sacred ceremony with herbal energetics and herb tastings.  Students will improve their clinical skills through both cognitive and intuitive approaches. This is a rare opportunity to learn from two master herbalists.
