: DVDs & CDs : .
I currently have two DVD sets
available, and one audio CD. The focus of the videos isn't on
botanical identification, but on usage and
understanding the foundational actions & energetics at
play, with much elaboration, analogizing,
storytelling and gesturing. There's also
information on different preparations, different
ideologies on dosage, the power of gentle herbs and
other insightful elaborations. The audio CD is
from a class on holistic immunity, and contains the
class notes, some recipes, and other supplemental
information (as PDF files) as well as the recordings
(as MP3 files).

I may or may not have
copies of this on hand, but they can always be purchased
from Dave LaLuzerne at
HerbTV. Ideally,
ask me first... send an email with your
name, address, phone number and email to
stephanie@herbcraft.org
to see if I have copies on hand,
if so, then use the "make a donation" link below
to pay (you can also contact stephanie to arrange paying
by check, money order, or pirate treasure...).
Please do include all order info
in the email to stephanie, and not in the paypal
transaction; it just works out easier for us that way.
DVDs will probably be shipped within 1-2 days of your
order.
If I'm out at the moment, you can
order from HerbTV
here. I'm really
super pleased with the job Dave did in making these turn
out so well.

herbs,
vitalism & holistic immunity
. : MP3 audio CD :
.
with jim mcdonald
This CD contains over four hours of
class recordings (as MP3 files), and over 30 pages of
class notes and other written info (as PDF files) to
support the recording (links embedded in the written
info go off to oodles more pages of resources).
Topics covered include a contrast of vitalism versus
germ theory, "bad blood" and the foundational role of
strong metabolism/digestion, physiomedical(ish) fever
energetics, diaphoretics, core immune strength, the
lymphatic system, metabolic & antiseptic lymphatic
herbs, and antimicrobials. A few interesting
tangents were left in, a couple added as "bonus tracks".
The files are named and tracked by topic, to make it
easy for finding stuff.
The CD is
$45; shipping is
$5.
