“I attended the webinars of Herbalists Physiology and Anatomy created by Abrah twice, the entire series. Abrah is extremely knowledgeable clinical herbalist who works with people and makes her own medicine so she speaks from a first-hand experiences. She also has a rare talent of storytelling which is a bonus and makes the webinars an absolute delight to listen to. The individual webinars focus on specific body parts, their functions are explained, possible complaints and reasons behind them are discussed and then the herbs are introduced. The webinars are around 2 hours long and I always ended up with over 3 pages of notes to which I come back all the time. ”

“Abrah’s lectures are inspirational, transformational, truly educational and applicable even for the most novice herbal curious. She brings in every class a unique perspective on life, the planet, the universe and humans’ relations with plants within that context. After listening to my first ever herbal class on the liver, I was able to bring together in a tea several herbs that benefit the liver and within a few days an issue I had suffered from for years was resolved. After taking Abrah’s classes you will not see life, the environment and your place on the planet the same way.”

“I highly recommend Abrah's anatomy/physiology video series, covering macro and micro aspects of body systems and the profound relationship between humans and nature. Her fascination with herbs and the body is contagious and memorable. I really enjoy the way Abrah describes the key energetics and actions of the featured herbs, often paired with interesting stories, folklore, and bonus context or history that isn't commonly known or accessible. What a great way to learn about mind/body/spirit/nature! - H.H.”

“The anatomy and physiology classes were not the typical A&P. Yes, Abrah discussed the parts that made up the system and how they worked, but she also included a story around it, the bigger picture. I can still picture the loving mother in the kitchen when Abrah taught us about the liver, and the far away galaxies with their similar patterns as connective tissue. Abrah connects the dots, and you end up learning much more in addition to A&P and plant allies. E.W.”

“In this course, Abrah situates the human body in nature, where it should be. She brilliantly compares organ systems to ecosystems, while teaching us where the elements reside in our bodies. After reading several human physiology books, and taking another lengthy course, it is Abrah’s teachings that stay with me with the most clarity. I will forever think of my kidneys as a wetland, and the earth element (iron) at the centre of a blood cell. Learning to read the patterns of nature is invaluable and seeing those same patterns in our bodies really helps keep humanity in perspective. This course is unique and wonderful, I highly recommend it! - M.R”
