Welcome to the 9th International Herb Symposium

Friday Afternoon Herbal Intensives 2 - 6 p.m.

Focus on Plants with world renowned photographer, Steven Foster.

Plants provide more than simple visual aesthetics. Photography offers an excellent medium to begin to explore simple beauty and gain a deeper understanding of how to relate to plants. You do not need sophisticated, expensive equipment to take great photographs. It’s more about understanding simple concepts—lighting, being in the right place at the right time, and patience. We will work with ambient natural light and making the most of the equipment you have. The key to successfully capturing images is to know and understand your equipment, and learning to keep your photography simple. (Intermed)

The Tools of Ayurvedic Diagnosis & Assessment with Anne McIntyre.

Combined with case history taking, the pulse and tongue can provide vital information about our health and help us better to assess one’s constitution and determine appropriate treatments. This Intensive offers the opportunity to learn an Ayurvedic approach to taking a patient’s case history and will help us explore appropriate herbal treatments and lifestyle advice. This will be a hands on class with opportunities to take pulses, read tongues, and learn other assessment tools that will prove invaluable in herbal practice. (Intermed/Adv)
