Class Description

The tongue is a window into the body's internal health, offering valuable insights for herbalists and healers alike. In this interactive class, you’ll learn how tongue diagnosis can guide your herbal formulations, connecting the tongue’s appearance to the overall wellness of the person you are working with. We’ll explore key diagnostic markers—color, body, shape, and cracks—and uncover what different areas of the tongue reveal about the body’s inner landscape. This class includes a hands-on component where students will practice observing and interpreting each other's tongues, making it a practical and engaging experience.
