Holistic Herbalism
Program Paths
Herb Ahava's comprehensive 200 hour Holistic Herbalism Program is divided into two parts:
Wild Tennessee Outdoor Exploration, and our Online Holistic Herbalism Foundations Programs.
Take one program section at a time, or both sections together for a fully immersive herbal experience!
No previous herbal knowledge or experience is required as we will introduce you to a unique integrative Classical Five Element model to guide your view & understanding of botanical medicine and the human body.
​
Completion of both program sections fulfills requirements for a 200 Hour Herbalism Certificate.
Wild Tennessee
Outdoor Exploration
Dr. Fig invites you to explore a wide variety of natural spaces in the Eastern Tennessee bioregion -from lush mountain passes, to regenerative farms, to wild waterways and untamed meadows as they appear across 5 seasons.
This outdoor section focuses on botanical identification, hands-on plant work, sustainable foraging, plant processing, herbal cultivation, medicine making, field trips + camp-outs, and strengthening your intuitive plant connection.
Online Holistic Herbalism Foundations
Grow your knowledge and understanding of foundational herbal concepts through a Classical Five Element and Traditional Folk Medicine lens. Through these live, interactive online lectures, Dr. Fig will enhance your learning with guided hands-on herbal experience and preparations, in depth exploration of over 120 common and obscure medicinal plants, human physiology and herbal mechanisms of action, clinical pearls, and energetic frameworks that can be applied to any plant you meet through life.
