[RBS] Israel Herb School 2012

[Naomi Persky]

Dear Friends,
A good  number of local residents have gone on Baruch's wild herb walks and have really enjoyed the inspiring and invigorating outdoor learning experience.
He is now offering a wonderful disciplined learning experience with certification.
This is not only a great opportunity for armchair herbalists to go deeper but also a chance to actualize a latent part of yourself that always wanted to learn such a thing and an amazing experience out in the beauty of nature here in our beautiful area of Israel.

Dear Friends on the Path, 


After many years offering programs in Israel and the US on the subject of ecology and herbal medicine, the Israel Herb School is offering a fellowship program at our Home base, Sage Farm, between the months of January and May.  This fellowship will be offered as a certificate training in the art and science of Herbal Medicine as it was taught to me by my teachers including David Hoffman M.N.I M.H, Tieraona Lowdog, M.D, Rolling Thunder, James Green, and Michael Moore.  These teachers are leaders of the Western Herbal Medicine Movement and have certified me to teach and practice this fine art.  




We are offering limited scholarships  as well.

Baruch Shapiro, Medical Herbalist is the director of the Israel Herb School. 
Baruch grew up in the gardens and wild places of California and
Nevada. He lived around Native American healers, first being
introduced to herbs by Rolling Thunder Mountain, as well as
practitioners of western medicine throughout his childhood. He has
been practicing and continuing to study the healing arts with a
passion since 1986. He studied, worked with, and was finally certified
to practice and teach herbal medicine by the most distinguished herbal
medicine teachers of this day including:
David Hoffman, Member the National Institute of Medical Herbalists;
Tierraona Lowdog, M.D., native medicine woman and clinical expert;
Michael Moore, field botany expert and founder of the Southwest School
of Botanical Medicine, and James Green, Previous Director of the California 
School of Herbal Studies and author of the Male Herbal.  
In his ongoing exploration of the mind/body connection Baruch is a long



time student and practitioner of Breema Bodywork having studied with
Dr. John Schreiber and Malichek since 1992.  He did a design course
and on sight consulting work with the Feng Shui Institute becoming
certified in Balanced Home Design.  While doing course work at college
in Sonoma Baruch worked and studied with master Farmer Bob Canard 
learning small farm system production, home garden design, and construction. 
 He was fortunate to spend many hours absorbing applied



nutritional theory with Amram Ahbesera, ZT'L in Jerusalem and to do
hands on natural cooking training with Cornelia Aihara and food
healing philosophy with Herman Aihara. He studied Permaculture with
Bill Mollison in 1994 and ever since has been deeply effected by
permaculture design system.  The last 10 years were spent refurbishing
an old wasted farmstead in the Emek Haelah in central Israel into a
unique Mediterranean home where he lives most of the year with
his wife Keter and his four children, growing and preparing herbal
elixirs for his clients and other therapists as well as doing
consulting and design work for individuals, homes, businesses, and
gardens throughout the country.
