— INSTANT ACCESS VIRTUAL WORKSHOP —
Everyone has a right to herbal folk medicine, but not everyone has access. In this workshop, we’ll bridge the gap between self-care and community-care by making an herbal first aid salve for yourself and one (or more) to give away as a form of mutual aid.
Join us as Alissa Maya guides us through what it means to build a system of sustainability and healthy ecology within ourselves, the natural world, and other people. You’ll walk away from this workshop with a sense of empowerment to begin your journey of making herbal medicines!

Meet Your Guide
Alissa Maya is a folk herbalist and embodiment plant medicine activist, who bridges the gap between self-care and community care. She is passionate about educating herself and her community of the benefits of using plants, intention, rituals, and ceremonies to create profound self-healing. She is guided and inspired by the moon to live and teach how to be in alignment with our body’s natural cycles. Through her own experience and trauma, Alissa has learned how to integrate somatic healing modalities with plant medicines, to soothe the nervous systems. Alissa’s intention is to share the tools that can help us to co-create ritual and sacredness in our everyday lives, by connecting us back with plant medicine, cycles of nature, and the reflection of our bodies.
