"Beating the Winter Blues" Free Online Class
For many of us winter can be a struggle and coping with “winter blues” a challenge, but there are ways to lighten the feelings that can accompany the dreary months. In this online class you will learn some effective ways to use herbs, essential oils, supplements, and lifestyle changes to banish the winters blues and bring a little sunshine back in your life.
We have chosen to offer this class as an online Zoom session rather than a classroom session because we feel that so many people experience this condition that we didn’t want to exclude anyone who lives too far away to attend our classroom sessions, or those of you who find it hard to get out in the evenings.
