Our Journey
Herbal Blessings, Everyone! I am so excited to be apart of the Shalom Healing Garden Group. This is a group of eight wonderful women that have set out, together, to learn about herbalism and have a common foundation in it. We’re from all different walks of life and have varying experiences with herbs and natural healing. One thing that binds us is the Blood of Yeshua and the testimony of His ever saving grace.We agreed to take the course from Sage Mountain, The Art and Science of Herbalism, written by the renowned herbalist, Rosemary Gladstar. So we agreed to take this journey together and to complete it together, in about a year.
Wow, what a trip! Most of us knew each other for years before this, and as a sisterhood, we’ve had some rocky times. This year of studying together, in my opinion, helped us to work through and work out, our trials and triumphs, together. No matter what we were dealing with individually, or with another sister, we continued to meet at the agreed upon day and time each month, give or take, come what may. We learned so much about each other, the good, bad and the ugly. I wouldn’t change the experience for nothing in the world!
Today, we are still striving to be conduits of Christ’s love and healing, together. This group has become a source of inspiration and a council of righteous wisdom for me. I hope that through this blog, that people will be inspired to create more herbalist groups for their communities and search out the hope and healing that is in the Messiah.
