Finding Balance Through Herbal Formulation
Creating an herbal formula can seem tricky at first. At first, we read about individual herbs and want to add as many powerful allies to our formula as possible. Each herb seems to have some healing property that we need. How do we choose?

Are our tissues too loose or too tight? Do we feel like we have too much energy or not enough? Where in our body are we experiencing symptoms? Is our environment hot and dry, cold and wet, or another combination? Getting a picture of where we are helps us figure out what we need. Then we can turn to the plants and their specific characters to create our formulas. Ready to get started?
