4-Week Case Review in Energetic Herbalism

This four-week course is for those who are looking for more guidance in how to apply the energetic lens to their herbal practice as well as how to look at various case studies. Kat will spend part of the first night going over basic clinical skills such as writings a SOAP note, considerations on intakes and ways to address formulations. We will then review two SOAP notes submitted by students who are actually working with the case.

Whether you are working with family, friends or clients all of this will be accessible. Anyone can write a SOAP note and is a great way to practice thinking through a protocol.

The following three weeks we will go over two cases per hour thus seeing four cases a day. The intention is not to come up with a final formula or recipe, but more how to begin looking at body systems, constitutions, lifestyles as well as materia medica with an energetic lens.

There will also be a two-hour class on March 27th from 6:30 to 8:30 PM Eastern for those unable to attend live.

Recommended reading is Kat’s text, Energetic Herbalism: A Guide to Sacred Plant Traditions Integrating Elements of Ayurveda, Vitalism and Chinese Medicine. I would say the level of study best suited would be advanced beginner. Some familiarity with Vitalism/tissue states will be helpful.

Obviously, we will only be able to accommodate a few students’ submissions so selection is first come first serve. Submit SOAP notes to Herbalist Michele Marlow at [email protected] and she will make sure we have all the information needed.
