Cathleen Branon-Keogh
The Healing Earth Herbal Products
I am a Certified Herbalist living in Fairfax, Vermont. I have four children: Jackson (11), Noah (9), Ben (5), and Grace (4), who help me to plant, tend, and especially harvest my herbs. The Healing Earth is a small family business born of my calling to the beliefs that natural elements as given to us by the Earth are the best way to care for and heal our bodies.
My training as an Herbalist includes a 10 month Herbs and Healing Apprenticeship with Corinne Martin, a Certified Clinical Herbalist in Bridgeton, Maine. I have also participated in post apprenticeship classes with Corinne, Herbal workshops, and lots of life experience with my own family and friends’ families.
Even though the chemistry and science of botany and Herbalism fascinates me, for me Herbalism is intuitive. I research maladies and the herbs known to help them, then I formulate my recipes by also relying on an inner knowing, a feeling of the plants and how they speak to me. I prefer to create my remedies in small batches and I still hand-pour every container, including the lip balm tubes.
I have found that people are yearning for products that not only work amazingly well for them, but also have spirit and a connectedness with the earth. The wonder of these humble and powerful plants inspires me, as does the prospect of helping to open people’s minds and hearts to the magic of Mother Earth’s healing gifts. These products have made a difference in our lives and the lives of others. I hope they can make a difference in yours.
