Adaptogens are a class of medicinal herb widely known for their effects on stress and vitality (ginseng is the most well-known). However, they have many other medicinal uses, and are especially helpful to people who experience allergies, autoimmune disorders, hormonal disturbances, and anxiety, as well as other symptoms or conditions. This workshop will discuss the uses of adaptogens in general and specific herbs in particular (chosen based on participants’ topics of interest). A detailed handout will be provided along with sample combinations for common conditions.
