Coming of Rage : Herbal Allies for PMS, PMDD, Peri/Menopausec with Samantha Zipporah

  • Hedgerow Herb Co. 811 East Burnside Street Portland, OR, 97214 United States (map)

Rather than seeking to eliminate or pathologize our rage, in this circle we’ll explore herbal allies & lifestyle choices to help us move in reverent, dynamic balance & partnership with it. 

We’ll open a taste of Sam’s special motherwort & rose elixir & somatic inquiry. After this vital time with our emotional & physical bodies, we’ll move into accessible biochemistry & physiology education to establish context for herbal actions & their effects. Hormonal & nervous system states frequently held in common by PMS, PMDD, & symptomatic Peri/Menopause will be demystified. Participants will take home simple, actionable options for allying with herbs & righteous rage to be the change we wish to see in the world, even /especially if that means burning it down. 

*All genders welcome! 
*Space is limited.
