Description

A beautifully illustrated guide to understanding and working with medicinal herbs, A Working Herbal Dispensary offers a unique perspective on the world of herbalism. Lucy Jones shares her knowledge of 108 herbs, each treated as an individual with its own distinct characteristics, including physiological actions, energetic qualities, and emotional resonances. This holistic approach to herbalism is complemented by historical views, magical associations, and recipes for the home apothecary. The book provides insight into Lucy's practice, where she prescribes herbs in partnership with her clients, taking into account dietary and lifestyle factors to treat the root cause of illness. Informal case studies illustrate the actions of the herbs and the special magic of holistic herbal prescribing. Beautifully illustrated throughout with colour photographs, A Working Herbal Dispensary is a valuable resource for anyone interested in herbalism and holistic health.
