Health & Wellness

As the world heats up, it can be hard to keep our cool. Add to that the stress of shifting schedules with school out, planning travel, tending plants and keeping up with social obligations, and you’ve got a recipe for burnout. Join Herbalist Iris Kirsch of InsideOut Wholeness as we explore the benefits of safe, gentle nervines: herbs that support our nervous systems. Leave with an individualized recipe for a calming iced herbal tea blend you can sip throughout Summer to help keep you cool, calm and collected!

Iris Kirsch, M. Ed. is a healer, educator, mother, adventurer, punk rocker and herb farmer. She has been talking to plants for 44 years and studying their healing properties for over 20. With roots in the Wise Woman Tradition and Ayurveda, Iris and her family run a farm-based Apothecary in Berkeley Springs, WV where they craft healing potions from medicinal herbs they grow, offer holistic health consultations, and embrace chaos.
