Rosy Rose Herbalist

08/01/2026

Happy New Year Folks!
Maybe a good opportunity for a wee intro..

I’m Rosy and my practice is named after 2 of my favourite plants; Rosemary & Rose

Rosemary is an evergreen aromatic plant native to the Mediterranean with a traditional herbal use around uplifting and stimulating cerebral health and digestion 🌿

Rose grows all around the world and can be in a more wild form like the dog rose in Scotland, or ornamental garden roses. Its flowers are beautiful and scented, but it also has thorns! And produces rosehips too 🌹

My herbal practice and dispensary space is hidden away above the Balgonie Kilts shop on cross wynd in Falkland village.
I am currently only open on Wednesdays and Fridays by appointment, but hope to gradually increase this as my wee boy grows up 💚
I mainly work via 1:1 holistic consulting to allow space to listen to your health story and then blend an individual bespoke formula for each client.
We generally work together for 3 months initially and onwards depending on your individual needs,

Connecting people with plants 🌱

I also run regular workshops and container groups through the year to help folks build their confidence in using herbal remedies.

This year I am stripping it back to basics and will be working with one plant each month via an online herb circle group who will be meeting one seasonal herb each month of the year starting with turkey tail mushroom in February (get in touch for more info)

I will also run a monthly meeting the plant workshop in person each month starting with turkey tail on Feb 28th and then nettle in March (tickets available soon)
And seasonal herbal workshops too

I gained my herbalist liscense in 2017 after 4 years of training and 600 clinical hours at the Irish school of herbal medicine, and have been working as a herbalist in fife since then initially at Pillars of Hercules until moving to the village last year.
I am also trained in counselling skills, health creation mentoring, as a doula with concious birthing and working through a compassionate enquiry course with Gabor mate and sat Daram.

I’ve run out of words here! So more soon 🌈

2026-2027 Herb Circle Group (online)

I have been running container groups for a few years now where 10/12 folks join up via a short health intake, I post out herbs to you to take daily and we are connected via a WhatsApp group to share questions, experiences, resources etc. There is also a live (and recorded class(es) on zoom and recipes, herb profiles included.

Precious topics included spring cleanse, rest reset, women’s health etc,
But this year I am keeping it simple and focusing on one herb a month..

running 1st feb ’26 to 1st feb ‘27 we will circle through 12 different seasonal herbs.
You can join for all of it, one month only or drop in and out.
It’s about £30 per month, which can include postage cost or a wee discount if you join for additional months

I will also be running monthly in person workshops in falkland focusing on the same single herbs, which can be attended alongside this or alone.

We have turned the year..

This is the moment of the year that I try and remember to pause and reflect on my practice and all that have walked through it.

I am feeling so much gratitude 🙏 for all of you who have walked some of the way with me 💚
For working with me and herbs, showing up for your health and trusting.

Herbs and our health are part of nature and sometimes nature change can be dramatic, but a lot of the time it can be slow and gradual that we don’t notice the change until it’s the shortest day of the year and all the leaves have fallen from the trees so that we can see the stars shining through!

What a year it’s been! I’ve imperfectly managed to juggle motherhood, toddlerdom, running my business, new practice and all the cogs in between 😅 so thank you for your patience, support and trust 🙏

The picture is my retreat place where I get to escape to sometimes, grateful for this place and my connection to the land here after more than 10years!

Wishing you a happy and healthy return to the brighter days ahead 💛 🔥 ☀️

Intuitive herbalism workshop 29/11

As the winter days draw in we can be more connected to the intricate and the inner..
it can be a good time to reflect, learn and envision.

Intuitive herbalism is the simple practice of meeting plants with an open mind and heart to learn with them,

I ran a similar session in the summer, but this one is more themed around winter spirit supporting plants and how to bring them into your practice

The session will be in 3 parts and we will meet 3 plants; meeting, making and learning and it will include a herbal infusion tasting, plant meditation and essence making

Sat 29th November 10-12:30pm at my apothecary space in Falkland. Book via my eventbrite page (see link tree in profile) or contact me directly
