Taste is a practical way to categorize and use herbs for healing purposes. Join herbalist and health educator, Leah Wolfe, MPH, for an evening exploring the healing aspects of taste. But chocolate isn’t the best source of magnesium, but your brain signals say “mmm… chocolate.” Or maybe you crave salt, “mmm… salt.” What exactly is your brain trying to say? Researchers are still trying to understand the exact pathways the brain uses to experience taste, but we know a lot about how taste affects the brain, and where the heart of cravings resides. If you crave chocolate, you might need magnesium. Cravings can be signals that your body needs nourishment of a certain kind.

Healing taste – sour & salty Friday, February 10 6 PM Learn more about Northways as a concept, more info about the course, and registration at Northways. Northways Herbalism is an accumulation of my studies in traditional and clinical herbalism, travels, experience in makeshift clinics, and disaster herbalism. My indigenous roots are in Northern Europe (300+ years ago!), my North American roots are in Appalachia reaching 10-13 generations back depending on which thread I trace, and I grew up in the mountains of southern California. I created the Northways Herbalism program around bioregionalism, which simply means organizing around an ecological region. Northways is an online exploration of the places that I lived and traveled through.
