Herbs for Stress, Sleep and Resilience

In today’s fast-paced world, stress and sleep issues are all too common—medicinal plants can be powerful allies to support our nervous system, improve resilience, and promote deep rest. Join herbalist Natalie Hammerquist for a hands-on workshop exploring herbs that nourish and restore the nervous system, including adaptogens, sedatives, and sleep-supporting plants.

• Adaptogens & Nervous System Tonics – Herbs that help the body adapt to stress and promote resilience
• Sedatives & Sleep Herbs – Plants that gently calm the mind and encourage restful sleep
• Nourishing Nervines – Daily-use herbs that rebuild and strengthen the nervous system over time
• Practical Uses & Formulation – How to incorporate these herbs into your routine safely and effectively

We’ll blend together the tinctures of my favorite nourishing herbs to create a daily nervous system nourishment tincture blend. Each person will take home a 1-ounce tincture bottle to begin their herbal journey!

This workshop is perfect for beginners and experienced herbalists alike. Come connect with plant medicine and learn how to support your body naturally!

All materials will be provided, though I do reocmmend bringing an apron, as we will be working with oil.

This workshop is great for those just getting into herbal medicine, or with a little knowlege already.
