Herbalism, or herbal medicine is the art or practice of using herbs and herbal preparations to maintain health and to prevent, alleviate, or cure disease. (webster's)
And it's something I'm looking into. I'm not a big fan of modern medicine. Oh, there are alot of good things about it. But if you can heal yourself, or better yet, keep yourself healthy through natural means, why not do it that way?
I'm trying to find a course to take online. I want to be able to open a herb shop someday. Actually, I think it would be fun to have a shop at Ren Faires. It really doesn't matter, I guess. All I really want is to help people. I'm very excited about this!
