Did you know that Herbal Practice Connection (HPX) offers both monthly and annual memberships? 🌻

Each membership guarantees access to the three main spaces, or rooms where the action happens. These are The Consultation Room, The Apothecary, and the Office & Marketing Garden. Within each of these rooms, you will find an events calendar which thematically offers exclusive opportunities to learn about new topics by participating in:

🌱 Specialty trainings
🌱 Live monthly meetups
🌱 Online workshops and seminars with special guests
🌱 Case review sessions with yours truly

Each of these rooms has its own roundtable feed that functions much like a social media feed or a discussion forum. You can collaborate with colleagues, share resources, seek feedback, and ask questions!

Most importantly, you will also find a resource section particular to the subject material of that room. Included is a growing body of articles and other documents, videos, podcasts, and more.

These new, poignant reflections reach beyond my personal notions of professionalism as a sacred inner dialogue and moral compass. I have learned that from certain perspectives professionalism becomes less about the actions and acts of individuals and more about a profession, as a whole, committing to collective responsibilities. But most importantly, I have also come to see (and better yet articulate) professionalism as a belief system and social contract that has the capacity to both empower and oppress...

What are the members saying about Herbal Practice Connexion?

☀️ “HPX has been exactly the support I've needed with my clinical practice, providing community, educational workshops, and a wealth of resources. I could not be happier with my decision to join HPX.”

☀️ “There are other herbal business communities out there, but this one by far, has more actionable deliverables, quality seasoned and knowledgeable presenters, is personable among the other members, and affordable all in one. If I am going to invest my money in a community-based membership, I want to know I am getting value out of it. HPX delivers endless value!”

☀️ “As a RN, I am used to having a community of peers to share my experiences and to ask for support. I have been really missing that as an herbalist, until I found HPX! I can feel my confidence growing with the encouragement and additional training and education I receive in this community. My practice is elevated, I am more inspired, and I feel connected to a network of peers. It has been a wonderful addition to my work and my life.”

For me, as a clinical herbalist and mentor, professionalism plays a significant role in maintaining healthy and dyadic relationships with clients, mentees, and colleagues. These relationships are the foundation upon which I can build a sustainable business that celebrates and elevates the profession of clinical herbalism as a viable career and a safe, legitimate health & wellness care option.

The journey we take as herbalists into clinical practice is complex, arduous, and filled with its own special challenges and roadblocks. Sustaining and growing our clinical practices can be equally as challenging.

The Herbal Practice Connexion or HPX was conceived and born with the sole heart-path mission of fostering a community space for clinical herbalists seeking resources and support to build and grow their clinical herbal practice. We will be gathering to share inspiration and practical experience, workshop challenges, and celebrate wins through monthly meetups, Q & A sessions, and roundtable discussions. We will also be gathering to hone our clinical, business, and marketing skills with exclusive specialty trainings, monthly accountability quests, study groups, and mentorship opportunities...all the while cultivating nurturing habits surrounding rest, reflection, and self-empathy.

Does this sound like the support and camaraderie you've been looking for? Check out the link in my bio for more on HPX, including a video all about the program, membership features, and more!

Integrity can be defined as the quality of being honest and maintaining strong moral & ethical values. Integrity can also be defined as ‘being whole’ or ‘undivided’. When it comes to our work as clinical herbalists, both of these definitions - the quality of maintaining our values but also the state of being whole or undivided - describe what it means to be a practicing herbalist, a colleague, and an entrepreneur.

For me, integrity goes beyond simply maintaining my moral and ethical values - I have also come to recognize integrity as a benevolent force that holds my wholeness together, especially at times when I truly believe I am at risk of being torn asunder.

In my experience, integrity is not something that we are just born with nor is it just given to us freely from some outside source. Instead it is hard-earned, forged from both the tribulations and celebrations of our human journeys.

One method is commonly overlooked, and that is the use of traditional European medical astrology- a method that was once standard training for all university trained physicians in the Renaissance era.

In this class, we’ll explore how exactly medical astrology can be used to further refine and clarify your understanding of what is occurring within your clients body, as well as possible connections to psychological, emotional and spiritual patterns in their health. This includes assessing the relative strengths, weaknesses, excesses and deficiencies of the organ systems, further clarifying the constitution and tissue states behind symptoms, and even providing insights into therapeutic solutions, including herbs, diet, lifestyle and more.

Join us on November 4th at 6 PM EST for the next installment of the Clinical Craft Series "Medical Astrology for the Clinical Herbalist" with Sajah Popham! Check out the Clinical Craft Series link in my bio for further information or leave some 🌿 in the comments to receive info in your DMs! 🫶

Sajah Popham is the author of Evolutionary Herbalism, Natura Sophia Spagyrics, and the founder of the School of Evolutionary Herbalism. He lives on a homestead in the foothills of Mt. Baker Washington with his wife and children where he teaches, consults clients, and prepares spagyric herbal medicines.

Marshmallow leaf and root are beloved and renown for their tonic effects on our mucous membranes. Both toning and soothing in its actions, Marshmallow fortifies the integrity of these tissues, supporting both their structure and function.

Our mucous membranes are integral to our immunity and the sanctity of our inner ecosystem. Often referred to as our first line of defense, our mucous membranes serve as the functional boundaries between our inner and the outer world. In this way, they protect and defend our integrity, our wholeness, and our capacity to discern what is for us and what is not.

This is why Marshmallow accompanies the theme of INTEGRITY this month in HPX.

Integrity can be defined as the quality of being honest and maintaining strong moral & ethical boundaries. Integrity can also be defined as ‘being whole’ or ‘undivided’.

When it comes to our work as clinical herbalists, both of these definitions - the quality of maintaining our values but also the state of being whole or undivided - describe what it means to be a practicing herbalist, a colleague, and an entrepreneur.
