Infertility: Clinical Assessment in Herbal Practice

Saturday, October 12, 2019 at 2:30 PM
One of my greatest joys as a clinician is to welcome babies born to couples who have had challenges conceiving. By focusing on specific assessment techniques such as the energetics, nutrient and hormone testing, along with lesser known assessments including the darkfield microscope, ‘saliva fern test’, mucous test, and the Sympto-Thermal Method we can create natural protocols for enhancing fertility and conception. This same information can also be used for natural family planning!

[ONLINE] Autoimmune Response – Herbal Modulators
2019-11-03 09:30 - 11:00 | Online Course, United States
Feel free to share this:To register: https://www.holisticlivingschool.org/events/autoimmune-response-herbal-modulators/
Autoimmune diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and lupus, involve destruction of healthy cells by the body’s own defensive mechanism. If the immune system’s error in judgment is not corrected, the attack can progress to the heart, lungs, and other vital organs.
The mechanism that causes the deregulation of the immune response is not entirely understood. Heavy metal toxicity, leaky gut syndrome, infectious bacteria and parasites, and nutritional imbalances can weaken the body so that the immune system becomes overloaded.
In this course we will investigate the history of early medical recognition of autoimmune illness, and delve into the intricacies of new data that supports a plethora of theories of how autoimmune disease is triggered, including Excessive Complement, T & B Cell Issues, reactive oxygen species, stealth pathogens, Advanced Glycosylated Endproducts, and more, along with evidence based natural therapies that can help with inflammation and pain relief, as well as down-regulating aggressive immune behaviour, without suppressing or altering defences.
Fee: $ 35.00
Early Bird Registration: $25.00 when you register before October 27

Considering preparing and selling herbal products? Designing your own attractive labels? If you stay ‘low and local’, traditional sharing and trading may allow you to stay under the radar. However, to move into a more commercial setting, such as health food stores and online retail, there is a vast array of Good Manufacturing Practice and label requirements that must be met and mastered if you are committed to avoiding the very expensive pitfalls of becoming ‘pen pals’ with the FTC and FDA.

In this lecture we will outline definitions of marketing and labeling that is regulated by government organizations in the United States, and specific resources where a manufacturer can access compliance criteria. Ellen Kamhi PhD RN will share her expertise as an herbal formulator and regulatory consultant in the Nutraceutical Industry, so you will not be forced to say “ I did not know” – not a defense!

American Holistic Nurses Association, Fort Lauderdale Chapter Meeting
Hildegard of Bingen (1098-1179) was a Benedictine Nun who is considered to be the founder of scientific natural history in Germany. Through mystical visions, psychic impressions and observation of nature, she developed a system of natural therapies, using food, gemstones and medicinal herbs.

In this presentation, we will investigate her recommendations based on diagnosis, prognosis, and treatments which combined physical treatment with holistic methods centered on “spiritual healing”, including the application of tinctures, herbs, and precious stones, recognizing that the four elements (fire, air, water, and earth), the four seasons, the four humors, the four zones of the earth, and the four major winds must be kept in balance. We will also review modern Scientific Validation that supports the continued use of her methods.
A cell phone number will be posted on the door. Someone will come down and let you in.

[ONLINE] Fertility – Natural Support for Self Control of our Cycles
2020-03-22 09:30 - 11:00 | Online Course, United States
Feel free to share this:Register here: https://www.holisticlivingschool.org/events/online-fertility-natural-support/
3 CEUs are offered for Massage Therapists, Dietitians, Nurses, and Midwives in the state of Florida

In over 50 years of clinical practice, one of my greatest joys has been to welcome into the world babies born to couples who have had challenges conceiving. By focusing on specific assessment techniques such as the energetics of the people and situation involved, nutrient and hormone testing, along with lesser-known assessments including the darkfield microscope, ‘saliva fern test’, mucous test, and Sympto-Thermal Method both women and men can create a targeted all-natural protocol for enhancing fertility and the chances for conception. This same information can also be used for natural family planning! Too often herbalists ‘jump the gun’ and go straight for hormone balancing herbs, when the correct procedure includes spiritual considerations, such as ‘how busy is my life? How can I create time for a child?, along with considering base nutrient levels, and detoxification pathways, before introducing specific fertility-enhancing herbal protocols. In this session, we will review the hows and whys of specific fertility assessment tools and how to bring balance to our lives with natural therapies designed to invite new life into the world.
Sunday, March 22, 9:30am – 11:00am
Fee: $ 35.00
Early Bird Registration: $25.00 when you register before March 15

Folklore and Science BOTH promote the use of Natural Remedies to enhance immune function; including: preventing infection, increasing natural defenses, relieving congestion and coughs, soothing a sore throat, reducing a fever and quieting an upset stomach. Medical science now promotes a watch and wait strategy instead of over-prescribing pharmaceutical antibiotics which leads to resistant bacteria. Let’s explore effective and safe natural remedies!

Ellen Kamhi, PhD, RN, Registered Herbalist, AHN-BC will present Friday Intensive Workshop (3-hours):

Herb Dosing – Dowsing & Radionics
Date/Time: Friday, April 17, 2020 12pm-3pm
Empower yourself by learning How to Use Dowsing and Radionics To Honor and Interface With Herbal Medicine, to enhance and increase the accuracy of dosing and prioritizing herbal therapies. The ancient art of dowsing has been a time honored system used by healers around the world as a sacred tool to measure and tune into vibrational fields that surround all plants, animals, humans and imponderable essences.
There are many kinds of dowsing tools, including pendulums, dowsing ‘rods’ and advanced electronic field readers, and body centered ‘stickplates’. Radionics is a system of measuring and influencing energy patterns, frequencies, signatures and vibrational rhythms. Basic to radionic theory and practice is the concept that everything shares a common ground in that we are all bathed in the electro-magnetic and other energy fields of the entire Universe.
Through the use of simple tools, energy and intention, healthy patterns can be evaluated and restored. Dowsing and radionics are practical tools that enhance sharing HERBS AS MEDICINE, by having a tool to evaluate formulations and dosing specific to EACH INDIVIDUAL. In addition, via Radionics, plant medicines can be ‘broadcast at a distance’ to enhance healing for ourselves, friends and loved ones.
Other workshops are available here. To see all presenters, please visit this page.

Leaky Gut Syndrome & The Microbiome: Herbs to the Rescue!
Date/Time: Sunday, April 19, 2020 9:30-11:00am ET
This event is FREE for women who were registered for the 2020 Midsouth Women’s Herbal Conference. It is open to others for $40.00 per person. The proceeds from this webinar will support the startup costs for the 2021 conference. Due to this year’s cancellation and refunds, we do not have the usual carry over funds to support the next year’s early expenses. Read on to learn more about this exciting training!
There are multiple influences that promote the inflammatory process involved in GI disturbances ranging from irritable bowel distress to the more complex manifestations of Crohn’s disease. One well documented causative factor is compromised inter-cellular junctions in the GI mucosa leading to intestinal permeability. In this presentation, we will discuss:

the mechanism of action that initiates and complicates inflammation when inter-cellular junctions are compromised
the role of the microbiome in both causing and healing this issue
diagnostic tests that can help identify this process, and
present several evidence based herbs and natural interventions that can be used to positively influence this condition.

The objectives are as follows:
Objective 1: enable the learner to review the current literature that investigates the link between intestinal permeability and inflammation
Objective 2: enable the learner to evaluate diagnostic protocols and tools to determine intestinal permeability, ie Mannose, Lactulose Challenge
Objective 3: enable the learner to effectively incorporate low risk- high efficacy evidence based natural interventions in patient protocols
Women who were registered for the 2020 conference are automatically registered for this webinar and will receive a link to join closer to the date.
