Improving Fertility Naturally

Making a baby seems like it should be simple.  This isn’t the reality for many folks. Why?

Some potential stumbling blocks for natural fertility include nutritional deficiencies (processed food!); metabolic issues (increasing in prevalence);  environmental endocrine disrupters in food, air and water; stuff that happened back when we were still en utero; chronic stress; and/or, for some, a simple misunderstanding of the fertility cycle.

Whether you’re wanting to optimize your own reproductive health or want tools for working with clients, join in on this series to learn a comprehensive, natural approach to improving fertility naturally and dealing with common fertility problems.

Opening into the Soul: a Medical Astrology Course

This is an introduction to medical astrology course

The use of medical astrology is a profound tool for understanding and healing the human condition. It helps us to understand the body in relationship to our solar system and how it applies to the world around us. Extending astrology into the world of clinical herbalism increases our healing insight exponentially.

Using this modality within a healing practice allows us a peek into opening of the soul of our clients. It inspires health into the body in a broader way.

In this medical astrology course, you learn about the relationship between the 12 houses in a medical astrology chart and the 12 meridians of the body. We talk about the alignment of the chakras with the planets. You will get an overview of how each planet within our solar system affects a person’s body and how to use an astrology chart in relationship with your herbal practice.

This class is created for people who are somewhat familiar with astrology, who have (or are creating) a healing practice, and who would like to understand how to use astrology as a healing modality for yourself and your clients.

The Epidemic of Fear

The experience of fear resides in the deepest recesses of our brain. In a fear state there are a number of stress hormones that are amplified and secreted into the blood. 

Over time these can negatively affect our health. Living in a state of fear can cause a host of diseases, from digestive problems, panic and anxiety, rage, depression, to physiological breakdowns. 

In this lecture Pam will discuss what has helped clients calm their fear and regain their health.
