Flourishing Growth: Spring Program


Sunday February 24, 9:30-11:30
$25, Free to CTHA members!

At our Springtime Program we will enjoy flowering tea and discuss the quality of qi and the liver in the spring and their traditional associations, including utilizing the emotions, muscular force, movements and appropriate exercises for the season.

Changing as the seasons change is one of the fundamental methods of restoring and maintaining the health in traditional Chinese medicine. In this program we'll have a relaxed setting to talk about these processes and how they relate to modern life.

Space is limited. Please contact us to reserve a spot.

In this presentation we will discuss nature and health and how traditional Chinese medicinal herbs are selected and used.This will include tasting different forms of Chinese herbs.
This session will also cover Chinese herb cultivation illustrating locally suitable Chinese medicinal plants with 40 samples.Students will be sowing Chinese herbs in 6 packs to take home and grow in pots or in the garden.

The regular cost of the program is $60. I have a special discount code that you can apply to get the SFBG member rate of $50. The code is "Five Tastes 202013"
