An introduction into Matthew Wood Institute of Herbalism curriculum.


Herbs A-Z just got better

Starting Path is now included here at no extra cost, adding seasonally-inspired classes plus more live classes and Q&As to enrich the 100's of hours of Herbs A-Z content.

100's of hours of herb talks with Matthew Wood

We guide you through practical groups of herbs tailored for specific complaints, conditions, and patterns. Discover the intricate details of each herb and gain a holistic understanding of how they fit into the vast 'herbal universe.' It's not just about running from first base to second; it's about mastering the entire field!
Despite the name, this is not a class about herbs "beginning with A and ending with Z," but a more realistic presentation based on groups of herbs for different complaints, conditions, patterns, energetics, properties, etc., so that the student can see both the little picture of the herb and the big picture of where it fits into the ‘herbal universe.’

A medical doctor once said to Matthew, "Herbalism is a funny subject to learn. It’s like first you learn how to run from first base to second, then how to catch the ball in left field, then how to throw a pitch.” Matthew commented, “That’s how I learned and am still learning.”

Just as no two baseball players are alike, no two herbalists are alike. That’s why we are going to try to always have two herbalists speaking on the program; to give stereo vision.
