post #1 of 8
Thread Starter 
I am an RN but stay home with my kids for now. I'd love to do a course in herbalism which would be relevant to women's health. Anyone know of one......

I've heard good things about Susun Weed's courses She wrote the Wise Woman series, Herbs for the Childbearing Year and others...

here is another course taught by a midwife/herbalist that I would recommend given the content of lectures I have heard and the books I have of hers--

Earn 293 CE contact hours by completing Aviva Jill Romm's Herbal Medicine for Women Certificate Course via distance education. There are four units: Foundations in Herbal Medicine, Herbs for Gynecologic and Menstrual Health, Herbs for Childbearing Women, and Herbs for the Wisdom Years. Contact Avivajill@aol.com for more information.

The Heart of Herbs is the course that I plan on taking after I graduate from my midwifery school. I have heard so much great things about it!

I am currently in Aviva Romm's Herbal Medicine for Women course. It is amazing, really in-depth and solid. The reading and homework are thought provoking and challenging. I highly recommend it. PM me with any specific questions. Also, the American Herbalist Guild has a resource directory of herbal programs, you can learn more about Herbal Medicine for Women there as well as others. Best of luck!
