The Practicing Herbalist

A treasure trove of valuable information and a fascinating distillation of the wisdom that Margi Flint has gained during her practice as a herbalist of almost fifty years, in the theory and practice of running a thriving herbal business. With all the skill of a master alchemist, Margi weaves together her years of experience as an herbal practitioner with the best of the teachings and the teachers shes studied with. She stirs in just the right amount of honey, a bit of sass, and a healthy dollop of humor to bring us one of the most eminently useful books on herbal practice available today. Theres so much wisdom here, so much depth, and so much practical information distilled into these remarkably interesting pages. But even more, theres so much generosity of spirit as Margi invites us into her heart and home and shares with us her deeply personal journey as an herbal practitioner. Rosemary Gladstar, Herbalist and Author What a pleasure and a treasure to have all of Margis wisdom, experience and ever-useful insights into the art and practice of herbalism. This book will not only serve students and teachers of herbs, but all consumers of health care in search of good medicine. Kathleen Maier, Sacred Plant Traditions What a great accumulation of vital observation and herbal tidbits! In addition, I see it as a very useful reference for practicing herbalists searching for specific information on facial, tongue, and pulse conformation. A good guide on how to sort information from the client intake. This book will be a wonderful addition to the many books already in the herbalists library.
