Herbs and the Nervous System

​Who isn't stressed out right now? The world is inflamed and we're all feeling it. As we live our lives and work towards changing toxic systems, we've got to do what we can to nourish our nerves to keep us well.

​Join herbalist Genesis Contreras-Andrade for an herbal gathering focused on the nervous system and the practice of slowing down. We’ll explore gentle breathwork and calming plant allies to support a shift from stress into rest, with space for open conversation and shared experience. Together we’ll make a nourishing foot bath blend to take home and close with a gifted blue vervain tincture.

​Genesis is a budding herbalist from the Bronx, currently working at Anima Mundi Apothecary and studying at Arbor Vitae School of Traditional Herbalism. Her passion lies in serving her communities in New York and Puerto Rico, and she is devoted to becoming a community herbalist who supports healing through care, access, and connection.

​This workshop is donation based. $10 funds the materials needed for each person. $25 will fund your materials and those of a neighbor! :)
