The Way of Adaptogens

Adaptogen herbs get a lot of hype these days, but not all of the information you read online is true- and not all adaptogens are appropriate or effective for each person. In this course we’ll be looking at what these specialized herbs are, how they work, and why I think they’re the most important group of herbs to be working with in the world right now.

While you can find long lists of adaptogenic herbs online, the truth is that the list is quite short. There are three hoops of fire that an herb must jump through in order to be considered a true adaptogen from the perspective of expert herbalism. I’ll show you these hoops in the course and tell you which herbs pass the test, and why.

From there, we’ll get into a meeting with these herbs so you can learn more about each one and their unique virtues while exploring which ones might be the right fit for you as an individual. Wondering which adaptogen or formula to take or if too many herbs isn’t necessarily better? This course will help!

We’ll wrap up with a special formulary class where we’ll look at some of my most cherished formulas and how you can work with them.

“I have always felt a call to the plants and herbal medicine, which I sadly ignored for most of my life. At the time of writing this I have been watching Josh’s free content for two years and a patreon member for nearly a year. When he began offering his Spiritual Herbalism course I immediately enrolled. I knew it was going to be incredible, but I was completely blown away. Josh is one of those rare people who has a great gift for teaching. After his classes I walk away not only feeling like I learned something, like I acquired the data, but he has this incredible way of instilling the confidence to do something with the knowledge he teaches. He presents all of his lessons in an approachable, and easily understood way that anyone can come to regardless of spiritual path or experience level. Whether he’s discussing botany, herbalism, or spirituality there is always a wealth of knowledge presented, and you can tell he’s truly passionate about what he’s teaching. Following his methods of plant work has allowed me to enter into real reciprocal relationships with the plants, the land, and the spirits around me and has not only given me the knowledge and the confidence to craft herbal medicine, but also deepened my own spiritual practice, and helped me cultivate more peace and harmony and improve all other relationships in my life. His courses are truly something special, and I can’t recommend them enough.”
