Herbal workshops with Meditation

Learn to empower yourself and take control of your health in your own backyard.

Heather Bakazias, RN teaches in the Wise Woman tradition; healing and nourishing with common local weeds, simple ceremony and compassionate listening. She makes her own massage oils, tinctures, herbal teas and facial preparations, using only the purest ingredients.

The Wise Woman tradition represents the healers whose thousands of years of collective experience has taught us how to use herbs. Heather focuses on using herbs to assist the healing process and as a tool for transformation and growth.
