Guest guest Posted August 17, 2004 Report Share Posted August 17, 2004 Hey Sharron:Where in Southwestern Ontario are you? I am in Guelph. So I started a course in Herbal Health and Natural Nutrition through Alive Academy. So far it is pretty good. I am currently learning about identification, so I looking at every plant I see and trying to figure out what it is and what the latin name might be. It is pretty interesting. Next chapter I am making a bunch of formulas, I will keep everyone posted on what they are and how they turn out With sunshine Christie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 17, 2004 Report Share Posted August 17, 2004 Hi Christine, I'm in London. Where do you get your herbs. I go to Richters in Goodwood. Is the Alive Academy in Guelph? I have made the female formula and TT. What formula are you going to make? Sharron herbal remedies , " rubytuesday2020 " <christie@d...> wrote: > Hey Sharron:Where in Southwestern Ontario are you?

Guest guest Posted August 18, 2004 Report Share Posted August 18, 2004 Wow, I grew up in London,around Huron and Sanford Streets. Where are you? I go to Richters for some herbs, and one of my neighbourhood health food stores for others. The Alive Academy is in Vancouver, I am doing it through correspondance. I am hoping to get an apprenticship with a local herbalist once I am done my schooling> I am going to make a garlic oxymel, a tonic elixer, and a carminative tincture. I have made the TT, drawing poultice and the entire cleansing program. It worked great for me, I feel better than I have in a really long time.

Guest guest Posted August 18, 2004 Report Share Posted August 18, 2004 London??? Ahhhhhhh the parties. LOL. One of my old stompin' grounds. I was born and raised in Brantford Ont. :-) Love, Doc Ian "Doc" Shillington N.D.727-738-0554DocShillington - rubytuesday2020 herbal remedies Wednesday, August 18, 2004 2:34 PM Herbal Remedies - Re: Ontario/school Wow, I grew up in London,around Huron and Sanford Streets.

Guest guest Posted August 20, 2004 Report Share Posted August 20, 2004 Wow Doc, that is really neat! I agree about the parties.. I was at Western for a year I am going to Brantford this weekend, actually, for a party, oddly enough. Brantford has grown so much in the past few years, it is turning into this huge urban sprawl. Do you still have family in Ontario? Do you ever visit? Are you a Canadian? So many questions, I know. Toronto has a pretty good, and growing, natural health field. I go to an outdoor festival every year, called Om, where we celebrate the summer solstice. There are natural healers, many workshops, and a wide variety of musical talent. People of all ages from 2 years old to 80 come out. It is an amazing experience, and I think it shows how much the " alternative " lifestyle is really gaining acceptance, and challenging the more conservative beliefs. Om is a life changing experience for me every year. Maybe you can come check it out next year Doc! And anyone else interested as well. I am so chipper because I am just coming off a cleanse and I feel amazing! So, have a great day everyone Christie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 21, 2004 Report Share Posted August 21, 2004 Dear Christie, I have a sister in Beamsville, cousins in Sioux Lookout and Nova Scotia, and nieces and nephews all over. ;-) Western was always known as "Party U" LOL. It's been a while since I've been back to the home stompin' grounds but the last time I was there (about 5 years ago) I couldn't believe all the changes. I've always maintained my Canadian Citizenship even though I'm a permanent, green carded resident alien down here. I'm glad to hear that TO is up and coming in the natural health area. This is great. I remember cuttin' my "natural" teeth on good ole Kensington Market. What a place!!! I think the best China Town in the world is in TO. Any who, I'm really glad to hear that alternative lifestyles is catching on up there. I won't feel so alone the next time I visit.

Guest guest Posted August 21, 2004 Report Share Posted August 21, 2004 Hey Christie, what a small world. I'm in the Huron Heights Subdivision. We've been here for 6 years and before that we lived in the west end just off Wonderland road north. I've been thinking of doing the cleanse, but I think I need someone to guide me who has been through it. Can I contact you off list to discuss it? Looking forward to hearing from you.

Guest guest Posted August 21, 2004 Report Share Posted August 21, 2004 Christie...Where and when is the Om held? Sounds like a great weekend get away. I know what you mean about Brantford growing. I lived there when my two oldest children were born many years ago. I still visit a dear friend that lives there and I'm amazed by the changes I see. My son who lives in Hamilton has applied for a job in Guelph (he is with the Military). What a very small world we live in!
