Sacred Way
Herbal Studies
Sacred Earth Arts Director, Regina Compernolle has been studying and using herbs for health for over 30 years. She will share her practical knowledge with you and offer opportunities for creative and intuitive learning from the herbs themselves. At Sacred Earth Arts we offer classes, an apprenticeship program and independent study taught by Regina and other local herbalists.
As an apprentice you'll study the work of internationally known herbalists and receive hands-on experience identifying local herbs and making medicine and learn to support your own health and the health of your family and pets naturally.
For those interested in a deepening connection with the cycles and elements of nature, our Alchemical and Herbal Shamanism classes afford the opportunity to develop an intuitive rapport with our green relations.
We have designed our programs to incorporate online learning and small group outdoor classes.
