Thanks for your kind words, Hive account@celsius100! I certainly learned the hard way, LOL, though I can't quite say that I learned completely on my own. I did surround myself with a team that included an ND, chiropractor, a massage therapist, and some really awesome friends. And for my herbalist training, I completed a certification course with Vintage Remedies School of Natural Health in addition to years of self-study and going to workshops to learn from other herbalists and folks in the natural healing world. We're never completely alone, thank the skies. I could've used a me back then, hahaha, but that's alright. I think that I needed to go through the suffering and learning process in order to realize what I needed to become and where I was meant to serve.
