Exploring Holistic Alternatives

Families practicing: Alternative & Natural Health; Attachment and Mindful Parent

There is a new resource in the Charlotte region, which just opened in
January. They have many herbal and holistic healing classes available.
I thought the next one (tomorrow evening) sounded interesting! So does
the Basic Herbalism class on March 27th. Or the Thursday evening Chakra
classes! There are some group discounts, if several of us sign up. Post
if you are interested in going together!

Oh, I'd love to go to the basic herbalism classes. But we'll be out of town for class I. :( I might be able to talk my DH into letting me do the 2-day certificate herbal class, depending on what dates they decide on.
