Guest guest Posted April 20, 2010 Report Share Posted April 20, 2010 well that well maybe what it is then. Particularly if that is what the author says it is lol, I thought i saw it in another post as well today, though, therefore i thought maybe it was one of those things, and in that case i did not know what it meant. Maybe i am just very tired too, that is even more very likely nova Not sure what J means, maybe it was a typo? what does J mean ? as i have never seen that before the last couple post Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 21, 2010 Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 Kathi, I don't know that it is really 'controversial'; I think its just that there is alot to know and you can't really get all that information in one spot. Personally, I think anyone who deals in the 'health fields' such as herbology should have a good understanding of anatomy & physiology and take a college level class in that. Most herb programs dance around any science and think its unimportant. Sure, I'm biased, but I'd suggest a good class in A & P. Some colleges are starting to offer programs in holistic health. I know in Colorado there are community colleges that have classes and Metro State College also does. Then look at some of the programs; I think Michael Moore has a pretty intensive program at least from what I've seen. Although he died a year ago I think his program is still going on. Rosemary Gladstar has a reputable program. Here is a list of some programs: http://www.herbnet.com/university_p2.htm It also depends upon what kind of program you are interested in; to practice just on your family, or what level of knowledge you want. Join some organizations that deal with herbs: American Herbalist Guild is one, International Herb Association . . . . . . I am self taught. I bought a course once and was astonished at the low level of information that was in there. I don't like paying someone money for information that I can find better and for less price. Find some good books on herbalism; David Hoffman, Rosemary Gladstar, . . . There are many, just depends upon what areas of herbalism you are interested in. Its an ongoing process. cindy jones http://www.sagescript.com Cindy Jones BS - bull shit MS more of the same Ph.D. piled higher and deeper , " Kirschner, Kathi [TIBUS] " <KKirsch1 wrote: > > Thanks, Tina!
