NOTE: Many of my students who join us in the Confident Herbalist Tribe find they quickly begin working with family and community members and for some, even begin herbal consultation practices. The Tribe is a GREAT place to get help and support with a variety of conditions from experienced herbalists and aromatherapists. TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE HIVE MIND.....

We all know how toxic commercial bodycare is. Most soaps are drying and irritating to our skin, and in fact, aren't even "true" soap! You'll be shocked and awed by:

how easy it is to make your own soaps with herbs, oils, and natural ingredients from the earth
how fun it is to add your creativity as you customize your bars by adding honey, salt, clays, and more for color and texture
the reactions you'll get from friends and family
how soft your skin will feel and how much healthier it will be
how working with the scent factor (essential oils) can bring a whole new realm of aromatherapy to your life! And more....

Here's what students say:

"I took your soap making course last week. Made my first batch over the weekend using Bergamot and Patchouli. It is the best soap I've ever used... and I've been buying handmade soap for many years. (I am meeting 3 friends tomorrow for coffee and can't wait to share the soap with them)" Donna Howey

Essential oils and herbs work great with animals! Here's a little case study on how they worked with an aggressively barking (nonstop) dog in a family home:

"I wanted to update you on Scooter's barking issue. I ordered the EOs you suggested and had them sent to my daughter....They have done the trick! He's so much more mellow, and their younger dog has once again started carrying his toys around with him and is much happier too. He was quite anxious before and we didn't realize just how much the barking (and the resulting frustration from the humans) was affecting him." ---Kathi
