THE COSMOS OF HERBS
REGISTRATION THROUGHOUT THE YEAR
Maureen has been running Herbal courses and training since 1992 and the Cosmos of Herbs course is the culmination of all her experiences!
Testimonial of the Cosmos of Herbs:
"Wow, wow and wow! The description of Cosmos of Herbs 2021 spring-summer course was saying that it is going to be mindblowing. Well, it was. Instead of learning each plant and their virtues we came to receive a far broader view on their connection to the elements and planets and got to be able to use our observation to have a clue about their healing qualities.
More than that, I never thought the planets are in connection with plants or that certain planets rule certain plants… well they do and this really is mindblowing – once we get to understand these connections and the information they carry we have gained real useful knowledge. Thanks to Maureen´s dedication this way of knowledge and wisdom stays alive and reaches to more and more people. I'm very happy to even find her and having the opportunity to learn from her. And this is just the beginning of the studies…
