Herbs, Stress, and Doshas

9 a.m. - 11 a.m.

Zoom Meeting

Herbalist Kyle Denton of Tippecanoe Herbs will offer this online presentation on nervines. We all cope with stresses, and there are hundreds of plants that can alleviate stress. But, it can be overwhelming to figure out which plants to use and how to best use them. Kyle's presentation will start with a framework based on a traditional Ayurvedic model and show different ways that stress can manifest. Whether we experience anxiety, grief, anger, or tension, if we understand the ways we feel, we have a stronger idea of which plants will help and which will not. Kyle will cover several plants in depth and how to use them.

Kyle Denton is an herbalist and founder of Tippecanoe Herbs and Apothecary in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.  There he runs an herb shop, manufactures the medicine sold there, conducts herb walks and workshops, and occasionally practices clinically. 

Meeting invitation with Zoom code will be emailed to MHS members a few days ahead of the meeting. Watch for it and look for tips on using Zoom!
