Body Literacy Poster
Our everyday herbal routines are based on the practice of body literacy—a strategy anyone can use to participate more fully in making informed decisions about their health.
As herbalists, we get a lot of practice reading people’s bodies. We ask questions and use diagnostic tools - like pulse and tongue quality for example - to help us identify patterns in a person’s body that point us toward the origin of whatever imbalances they may be experiencing. But each of us can learn to read our bodies through a concept known as “body literacy.” 🌱
