“Becoming a person of the plants is not a learning process, it is a remembering process. Somewhere in our ancestral line, there was someone that lived deeply connected to the Earth, the Elements, the Sun, Moon and Stars. That ancestor lives inside our DNA, dormant, unexpressed, waiting to be remembered and brought back to life to show us the true nature of our indigenous soul.”

I'm at the Truro Farmers Market Cooperative today. I have a double table, showing some herbs picked from my garden this morning.

Hi. My name is Lynn Marie. I’m a Community Herbalist, Yoga Teacher, and Astrologer, among many things. I have been interested in Holistic Health and Spirituality for most of my life and have explored and trained in many different modalities, including Life Coaching, Shamanism and Reiki.

Around 20 years ago, I met an Herbalist and studied with her for a year-long personal health journey. It profoundly impacted my life. A few years ago, I took the opportunity to study herbs more in depth, through a 3-year Herbal Practitioner Program. From this, Arisma Holistic Herbal was created, where I offer one-on-one consultations, herbal blends, and workshops.

It has been a dream to one day create and offer my own year-long health journey to clients and students. I want to share with you the benefits and empowerment that comes from learning and experiencing this focused exploration into your individual health.

I am pleased to announce that I will be offering an in-depth, year-long, 100 hour course, called A Journey through the Seasons of Your Health. Topics include Introduction to Holistic Herbalism, Plant Identification, Foraging, & Medicine Making, First-aid Gardens, Anatomy & Physiology, Western Energetics, Herbal Actions, Materia Medica, Breathing & Meditation, Solar, Lunar, & Medical Astrology.

If you are interested in joining me for this journey, please email [email protected] for an information package, which includes application, curriculum, schedule and pricing.

Monday evenings, May 20th, 27th, June 3rd and 10th

There has been increased interest in astrology since the total solar eclipse on April 8th. I have been interested for almost 40 years, studying on my own and with teachers all over the world. I love to share my knowledge.

This course is for beginners and novices. If you don't know what some of the words on the poster mean, but you want to, then this course is for you! It will take you to a whole other level of being able to explore other astrology articles, blogs, and videos.

Nutritional & Herbal Self-Care for Digestive Health

Join myself and Luba for this half day workshop, learning about solutions for digestive health issues.

As we come out of winter hibernation, and move into spring, it’s a great time to focus on our digestive health. We can get the most benefit out of seasonal patterns, as greens and bitters become available in our local markets.

Many of us suffer from digestive issues such as GERD, bloating, constipation, and acid reflux. Oftentimes we try to eat healthy and do not get the results we are expecting.

We’ve all heard the saying “You are what you eat”, but actually it’s what we can digest!

Come, explore and learn as we talk about the Microbiome, the Gut-Brain connection and how our second brain (in our gut) works.

If you’ve never sampled fermented foods or herbal bitters, this is an opportunity to try some new things that could have a great impact in your life. (And we’ll all have good bm’s before the end of the day, lol)

Sunday, March 24th, 12:00 – 4:30pm at Studio 280, 280 Willow St, Truro.

Men's Beginner Yoga starting in March, Thursday evenings at 6pm at Studio 280 in Truro.

No experience necessary. This class is designed to be a super gentle, introductory, beginner's class for guys who have been curious about yoga, but maybe not so keen to be in a class with people who have been doing bend-y things for years.

We'll be learning about breathing, stretching, and posture. I'm not sure if we should even call it yoga, more like pre-yoga. It's a good entry point and you may discover that you are interested in a deeper, more authentic yoga practice going forward.

So whether you're coming to be able to maintain or improve performance in your favorite sports... or even to be able to reset your body after a long day in front of the computer or in a vehicle... Yoga has many benefits for our bodies and our minds that can help us to feel more empowered in our health.

For more information, contact Lynn Marie by emailing [email protected] or texting (902) 441-8479.
Exchange for 4 week series is $52 (special rates available for seniors 60+ and full time students)
