Margi has been working with people and herbs since she began her herbal studies in 1974. Her clinical practice evolved through continued study with admired herbalists. Practitioners who have had major influences on her have been Rosemary Gladstar, David Winston, Matthew Wood, Christopher Hobbs, Donald Yance, Mindy Green, Chancel Chabrera, Annie McIntyre, Jeffrey Bland and the late great William LeSassier and many more.
This blend of teachers created a truly American-mongrel-Practitioner. A little Ayurveda, some Chinese, lots of Aromatherapy, Native American with some science and a heavy dose of Folk. Throw in years of studying supplements, their quality, best combinations, and time of day to consume. Add to that twenty years of attending births as a labor coach and herbalist, raising four kids who have grown into wonderful adults.
"We teach through the filter of our experience." states Margi, and what a varied and powerful experience these teachers and clients have built into her filter.
