Towards a Gender Affirming and Trans-Inclusive Herbalism (Recorded/Replay) Guest Class with Ember Peters, RHP (HANS) Clinical Herbalist at Wild Current Herbalism Recorded October 18, 2022 Herbalists have so much to offer towards supporting transgender health. This class will begin with an introduction to gender and the barriers that transgender folks face in society and healthcare settings. Then, through examining how these barriers show up in herbalism, we will explore how to move towards a more gender-affirming, trans-inclusive herbal medicine culture and practice. We will cover plenty of practical tips for trans-competence as well as considerations for choosing safe and effective herbs for your trans clients, including taking hormones and herbs concurrently and gender-affirming surgery support. What you take away from this class will benefit everyone you work with and will be one more step towards creating a more liberatory, accessible and empowering herbal medicine.
